Why do I have an image of a battalion of Indian soldiers standing at the border all singing "Winnie The Pooh, Winnie The Pooh. Chubby little cubby all stuffed with fluff"  redface:

Unfortunately for Xi once you have that image in your head it can't be unseen.  Xi the Pooh he is

Xi Xi the Pooh you say..  rubschin:


Wonder what would happen if someone was to email the Indian High Commission suggesting that they do it and post the event on Youtube...  eveilgrin:

FFS A Master Sommelier is someone who has mastered their craft and earned the right to be called a master, it has fuck all to do with slave ownership. What's next, get rid of Journeyman because it's sexist??? Banghead

It's been a while since I studied history but wasn't Grant the most successful Union general of the civil war beating or capturing multiple Confederate armies as well as striving the reunite North and South America while protecting the rights of African Americans during his term as President? What the hell was the point of pulling his statue down?  noooo:

Raz, what the hell did you think was going to happen. You chased the police off and declared your own area protected by the maniacs in the Pugit Sound John Brown Gun Club and the clueless idiots you handed out firearms to. Why the hell did you think that EMS crews were going to risk themselves and go in there to treat anyone? Even before the shootings there have been reports of extortion, women being assaulted and no law whatsoever there, nobody in their right mind would go in there.

Fixing you say? I wonder if the context of that is that the fix is in?

Well if the only alternative is what they say is Boris's choice (Liam Fox) he'll be a show in then.  Fortunately there's lots of alternatives
Well, whatever, nevermind
