    If "what I'm on about is't clear" I have neither the time or the crayons to explain it to you both.
    "why ride a vespa when you can push a lambretta?"

    As I look ahead, I am filled with foreboding; like the Roman, I seem to see "the River Tiber foaming with much blood."

      You do realise that this is Contractor UK. And in the UK, "ass" means "donkey". The fact that you've failed to pick up on this twice confirms that you are an arse.
      Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

        Self righteousness cretin. The Oxford English Dictionary also has the following definition

        British informal A foolish or stupid person (also makes following reference Mid 19th century: variant of arse.)

        You sir are an Ass

          Big bottoms...
          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            I'm a bit offended the officers aren't letting those poor (male-only) victims of a war zone mingle with the natives - surely a breach of their human rights?

              It is true that an ass is British English for a stupid person, but in this context it is irrelevant. When you said "but I’m having a hard time getting my head that far up my own Ass", you did not mean "but I’m having a hard time getting my head that far up my own foolish or stupid person", rather "but I’m having a hard time getting my head that far up my own arse". Is it your own pig-headed self-righteousness that prevents you admitting that, in error, you used the wrong word? Just wondering.

                Well, I was going to post a picture of a Nazi Santa with a witty line about Europeans, but feck it, found this instead.

                You couldn't make it up.

                What happens in General, stays in General.
                You know what they say about assumptions!
