Although I can honestly say I would run rather than face him in a brawl though, although he could easily catch me so I would have to run and hope he gets bored before bringing me down.Comment

Business Rates
The smoking ban may have hurt pubs - but personally local councils refusal to address business rates is killing them.
They take the view that Pubs should be taxed based on how many pints they COULD serve... not what they ARE serving.
As such although revenues dropped, their rates didn't and the extortionate money they kept paying to the council "for nothing - they don't even get a bin" pushed a lot under.
It might not have been the knife going in... but it certainly added a nasty twist.Comment

Sure, nobody wants to be overweight but in years gone by people were just that. Overweight. And they didn't have all this guilt heaped on them by the health fascists.
You can see in my responses to this thread that I do not think all women should aspire to some media-driven ideal.Last edited by d000hg; 21 January 2014, 15:48.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

I want to know how really, really, really fat people wipe their arses. Do they have some sort of shoe shine machine in their bathrooms?
If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.Comment
