and the libdems quislings the lot of em !

 

this sub-thread started by bfj1 doesn't really add to the discussion.

 

But consider your alternatives to the coalition:

 

1) A hung parliament where nothing gets passed.

2) A Labour majority.....equivalent to Smalley becoming Latic's top scorer.

3) A Lab-Lib pact.....same problems as now only the Libs have a bit more clout.

4) A Tory majority.....now that would set a few heads exploding on here.

 

As it stands and as far as I can see, the Libs are doing trade-offs to get some (not all) of their key policies through.

 

Not being cynical, but I am genuinely open to being enlightened AND as I said before I am not affiliated to any party.

It doesn't exactly make my blood boil, but I find it weird none the less. Why do people say Rest In Peace when someone dies?

 

How else are they going to be resting? Is there a more peaceful state than death?

 

Is it fundamentalist religious sentiment that has spread to rest of the population?

 

People say the strangest things.

There's a sweet irony in ranting about a figure of speech whilst also using the phrase "makes my blood boil" :wink:

Except: <_<

 

I very much played down the "makes my blood boil" in spite of the thread topic. Plus I get why people say "makes my blood boil" even if it is a gross exaggeration or distortion (like many figure of speeches)

 

And I didn't exactly rant. :ranting:

 

But this R.I.P. nonsense is just one of many quirks of western culture I find puzzling. Just inviting intelligent discussion, that's all. B)

I was only pulling your leg mate.

Cyclists riding on pavements and refusing to get out of the way of pedestrians. I want to poke them with something hard as they ride past, apologising obviously.

When it's raining I just walk down the road knocking umbrellas out of my way if they come anywhere near my face. Stupid tossers waving bits of metal around at my eye level, grrrrr :ranting:
