It's called "bribery", regardless of how you want to dress it up.Originally posted by Doggy Styles View PostSent me a large box of specialist chocolates for Christmas again.
At least you're cheap.
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

A would buy you a box of chocolates if you earned me more than the cost of a box of chocolates too. Send a cheque for £200 and a box will be yours by return
