Tony Blair's New Year Message

[wendigo100]

Oceania was at war with Eastasia.

It always has been. Would you mind not misquoting me?

BTW, I'm doubleplushappy you are not a non-person yet. Who was at the door?

[AlfredJPruffock]

Somebody knocking at the door -
Somebody ringing the bell -
Do me a favour -
Before they do me in

[Buffoon]

If we are singing songs then it should be the anthem:

Oceania, 'tis for thee.
Strong and Peaceful, Wise and Brave
Fighting the Fight for the whole world to save
We the people will ceaselessly strive
To keep our great revolution alive
Unfurl the banners, look at the screen
Never before has such glory been seen

Oceania, Oceania, Oceania, 'tis for thee.
Every Deed, Every Thought, 'tis for thee.

[AlfredJPruffock]

Comrade Buffoon

I do love to hear the Oceaniac chant in the morning
It sounds like - Victory

[wendigo100]

Is that Victory with or without the helicopters and "Ride of the Valkyries"?

Victory Gin.

Since we started this thing about 1984 I’ve wanted to read the book again. I’ve got a copy but I’ve looked everywhere and I can’t find it. I’m going to have to buy another copy. It is so true of the B’liar regime.
Just looked up the text on the net to find the final paragraph, which I think is the most frightening part of the book.

He gazed up at the enormous face. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark moustache. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.
