The all new NEWSWORTHY thread

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

A warning on the label states: "This is an extremely strong beer; it should be enjoyed in small servings and with an air of aristocratic nonchalance. In exactly the same manner that you would enjoy a fine whisky, a Frank Zappa album or a visit from a friendly yet anxious ghost."

It's looking increasingly likely that the Chilcot inquiry will come to the conclusion that Tony told fibses..

Will people be apologising en masse to Jan Moir after it turns out everything she said in her article about Gately was actually true?

Honestly? That was pretty much what she said. That his death was tragic and a bit seedy. Turns out she was right. As a bi male, I didn't feel offended by her article. I couldn't work out what exactly the great worked-up rage from the GLBT lot was really about. I did find Stephen Fry's contribution rather funny. Especially since his glossing over of Oscar Wilde's life story. No mention of Robbie and Bosie's liking for 14 year olds I notice..

Re: BA Strike

Do we really need cabin crew on planes? If they want to strike, let them. They wont need to be paid and the airline will save money. We dont need people walking up and down the aisles on buses or trains selling us stuff, so why should a plane be any different?

Ah but what about the safety issue?

From the spiel at the beginning of the flight and the safety leaflets all the passengers are supposed to do the hard work of opening the emergency exits, and the safety equipment is designed so that passangers can use them.

So sod the BA staff (except the pilots, they may be useful). :wink:
