good day to all you english chaps out there. if you wish to chat about how great it was when we ruled the world then here is the place to do it, smoking jackets optional, cups of tea mandatory. basically any subject befitting gentlmenly conversation. politics allowed and discourse about different pubs and clubs, anything you want to talk about relating to england basically, but remember
god save the queen!
try not to flame the americans to badly though. they cant help being a headstrong younger nation. they just need to mature. like a good wine. or cheese.

optionally if you come from a former colony of her majestys british isles or the boer region of africa feel free to make us feel as guilty as you want, we deserve it.

(yet another misspelt topic from me)

Oh yes, I remember one time *mumble, mumble* so we went to the bar *mumble, mumble* The most beautiful woman you ever saw! *mumble, mumble* When I woke up I was in the British Army! *mumble, mumble* BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! *mumble, mumble* I ended up on a boat back to Suez *mumble, mumble* Of course, at the time I was very, VERY drunk.

Anyone seen the episode of Family Guy with the British pub? Excellent.

"You should go to England - the worst they got there is drive-by ... arguments."
*cut*
"Why, isn't that Reginald B. Stiffworth, the young upstart who's been touting the merits of a united European Commonwealth?"
"Why yes, I believe it is."
"Let's get him!"
...
"Oh Reginald! ... I disagree!"

We Aussie are all the unwanted scum of England. There was some convict war over gold not long after landing here or something, and it was on the turf that I live on. I feel so privelaged.

We were invaded by Napoleon 3 times by not closing our ports to British ships. Instead of helping, you came and looted what the French had left. Damn you cowards.

Sebatianos 27-05-2005 01:39 PM

Heh... one of the most popular children stories (Martin Krpan) is based on a simple Slovene farmer who was smuggling English salt from the coast inland (at the time the Habsburgs closed their ports to England at the request of Napoleon)...

Iron_Scarecrow 27-05-2005 01:46 PM

Popular story here is Ned Kelly, the worlds most famousest outlaw. I don't exactly know why he is so popular all he did was kill a cop or two then they chased him into a building and he died.

Wasn't Ned Kelly the guy who was pinned down in a pub by a load of policemen tring to kill him but made a suit of armour from what was avalible to him in the pub, walked out with it and shot all the policemen?

Yeah but he didnt kill all the cops, he didnt cover his legs so they shot him in the legs then he couldn't do anything. But still he doesn't seem like an idol I would want to look up to, and the movie was quite boring.

omg 28-05-2005 12:59 AM

apparently no one in australia drinks fosters. or castlemain xxxx. they just sell it to us. ptobably laff at the idea of us drinking it to
i like castlemain on a very hot day cuz its like beer flavoured water. fosters should be banned though. dammn kangaroo piss!

hopefully as punisment they will be forced to drink case after case of it in hell.
i wonder what karma we have coming to us as a result of our global empire?

You can't be seriously suggesting that Shaun of the dead is a part of your great comedy tradition? It simply can't be compared to stuff like:
'Alo 'Alo
Yes (prime) Minister
The Piglet Files
Only fools and Horses
You rang milord
Fawlty Towers
...

That one's one of my all time favourites (I've been crazy enough to buy the DVDs, actually). :D It still baffles me, that YM/YPM was Margaret Thatcher's favourite TV series. That would mean she actually had a sense of humour. But she seems to have been able to hide it rather well most of the time. Probably in one of those hideous handbags of hers...

omg 28-05-2005 01:09 PM

i think she probably liked it because it said things like "blessed be the word of the pm"
i love yes prime minister, dont know why i didnt put it there,

BeefontheBone 28-05-2005 01:23 PM

Allo allo? Allo allo? ewwwww. Yes Minister does indeed rock though - I love the way it's equally relevant these days. Shows the rate of change of politics.

omg 28-05-2005 01:26 PM

allo allo used to make me rofl when i was a kid. so i still like it as it brings a pleasent feeling of nostalgia.

I suppose Humphrey's answer to that would be: "Well Minister, if you ask me for a straight answer, then I shall say that, as far as we can see, looking at it by and large, taking one thing with another in terms of the average of departments, then in the final analysis it is probably true to say, that at the end of the day, in general terms, you would probably find that, not to put too fine a point on it, there probably wasn't very much in it one way or the other. As far as one can see, at this stage."

Despite being a thorough believer in the British sense of humour (I think I know but a few Quest for the Holy Grail scenes by heart) I'd have to disagree with you on this one. This has got to be one of those rare quality products that the United States have produced during the course of history.

Mind you, tough, that if ever comes a time I'd be ruled by any nation, I'd prefer it to be the United Kingdom, on account of their superior Earl Grey-drinking skills. But nevertheless I'd like to hear the sound of two bricks being bashed together. Mad 1, mad 2, mad 3...

The world in general has this view of the english as the stiff upper lip English-Gent, or the loveable cockney rogue.

Havell 28-05-2005 05:55 PM

According to a recent survey, British men have the highest average sexual stamina of any country in the world (about 7 and a half minutes or something)!

@Reup, that is a point, English people are conditioned to drinking really fast becuase they have to get all their drinking done in a couple of hours, whe nwe go abroad, we drink at the same (very fast) rate for much longer and get pissed off out faces. Also, European beers tend to be much stronger than British ones (so you're supposed to drink less obviously, but we don't think that way).

Birmingham, Alabama is quite famous, it was one of the most racist towns in the 50s and 60s and it was where Martin Luther King's bus boycott happened.
There are several Coventrys in the states btw :bleh:

incidently there is also a marlborough in the south. is near devices i think. so as a child i never understood the marlbourough country adverts in the desert.

i think anyone whos ancestory includes former members of her majestys armed forces should be allowed into the club. as long as they wear there smoking jackets with aplomb.

Not the site. Just all of the people in the UK. Have like a 57-milion person shindig. In fact.... that gives me an idea.

To the phonebox!

And yes, it would be once a year. Once a year is enough for the residents of Bath to clean up. Then by the next year Bath would be cleaner than ever! Huzzagh!

Hmm... are people in prison invited?

Oh by the way it's a quid to get in and no-one in jail gets in. Just gentlemen + women.

Oh also no kevs (chavs). So that's like 45 million people. They can just bugger off to Milton Keynes or summit. OR we could put them on a remote scottish island. Like... the Hebredes. But Orkney must be left untouched.

Hmm... that gives me an idea...

To the Scottish Embassy!

Depends how well you speak them. I learnt a bit of german at school, then french to GCSE because I like the language better. If you enjoy them and/or do well at them then stick with both - more use than a GCSE in, say, Business Studies like I got instead...

multiple languages is a wicked thing though, stick with it. comunication with people when you are travelling is essential and you never know when they will come in handy . a lot of bulgarians do french in school so i was a ble to use it in bulgaria!

Clearly the members of the gentlemen's club are landed tories and therefore dismiss Blair as an "upstart" or a "pipsqueak" or sometimes both. Plus Bush is enough of a puppet as it is - reminds me of the bits in Being John Malkovitch where the puppet is controlling another puppet.

Anyone follow George Galloway's adventures with the American senate? he did us proud! I have to find the quotes...

EDIT: Here they are:

In quotes: Galloway showdown
Here are some of the quotes from British MP George Galloway as he confronted his accusers on a US Senate sub-committee.

"Who paid me hundreds of thousands of dollars? The answer to that is nobody and if you had anybody who paid me a penny you would have produced them here today."

"I have met Saddam Hussein exactly the same number of times as Donald Rumsfeld met him. The difference is that Donald Rumsfeld met him to sell him guns and to give him maps the
better to target those guns."


"You traduced my name around the world without ever having asked me a single question, without ever having contacted me, without ever having written to me or telephoned me, without any contact with me whatsoever and you call that justice."

"Senator [Norm Coleman, committee chairman], this is the mother of all smoke screens. You are trying to divert attention from the crimes that you supported from the theft of billions of dollars of Iraq's wealth."

"You have nothing on me Senator [Coleman], except my name on lists of names in Iraq, many of which were drawn up after the installation of your puppet government in Iraq."

"I have never seen a barrel of oil, owned one, bought one, sold one, and neither has anybody on my behalf."

"I know that standards have slipped over the last few years in Washington but for a lawyer you are remarkably cavalier with any idea of justice."

"One of the most serious mistakes you have made in this set of documents is such a schoolboy howler it makes a fool of the efforts you have made."

"Senator [Coleman], in everything I said about Iraq I turned out to be right and you turned out to be wrong and 100,000 have paid with their lives, 1,600 of them American soldiers sent to their deaths on a pack of lies."


Go on my son, show those bloody savages who's boss!

PrejudiceSucks 31-05-2005 05:15 PM

I second that.

Despite being at lest 30% more landed than most gentry, I would have voted Lib Dem. The other two are just awful.

Here's a summary of their election campaigns:

Labour : You know what, we really hate immigrants.

Tories : Not as much as we do!

Labour : As if! Bunch of pillow-biters! We hate them all and we brutalise their children.

Tories : So anyone up for some chat about Iraq?

Labour : No. No-one is. You can just piss off.

Tories : What about the NHS?

Labour : What about it? At least we want to keep it!

Tories : Ah. Bugger. Scuppered. Ummm... tax cuts for all!

Labour : I see... so how are you going to get 30ish billion for the NHS then?

Tories : Bloody hell, is that the time? Quick! Fetch the firing squad and hunt down Mike Howard!

Labour : BWAHAHAHAHAHA no-one ever votes Lib Dem and they won't this year...

Lib Dems : As if you could be so bloody right about something so bloody wrong...

BeefontheBone 31-05-2005 05:51 PM

The Tories couldn't have made much more of the NHS in the campaign - it was their funding cuts and privatisation of cleaning staff that left it where it is now. They also cunningly managed to count some cuts already announced by Gordon Brown in their "We'll save you this much in taxes" figures.

omg 31-05-2005 06:58 PM

i voted for the libs again but i have been becoming disalusioned with em. they come out with great policies, then change em, change em again, f with them some more, and not tell anybody. they never seem to get much good press (partly i think because if they got in power the press would be paying more in taxes) and when they do promote themselfs they leave out areas of the policy that seem to have mass apeal. a policy they f'd with really annoyed me, the council tax thing. now i remeber reading about that maybe 2 years ago. they inatially proposed to cut the council tax completely. they were gonna pay for it by putting a small increase in the general pops income tax, and some of the money they would have left over by increasing the tax to the top 25 percent earners. sounds good i think + saves money as you dont need to route your councill tax money through your local tax office, send it to london, then it gets sent back to your council, a wastefull procedure.
they changed that to say that they change the council tax to a local authorities tax.
bstrds.
that and the fact that charles kennedey is a piss head doesnt help. not that i have a problem with pissheads. but you have to consider the general populations view on a leader. we need a young , strong, braniac at the ehad of the liberals. preferably a genius econimist 2,
i think a big reosen people voted labour is becuse of the tax credit. it puts money into the pocket of the majority of the country. and the majority vote with there pockets. not there concionse.

(ps loads o spelling errors for you spell checkers but im dyslexic so i care not, cant be assd to run a spellchecker on forum posts)

BeefontheBone 31-05-2005 07:01 PM

The council tax thing is still pretty similar as I understand it - get rid of council tax as it stands, then you have a local income tax to replace it, so it varies between places (so it'd still be more in London than in the middle of rural Yorkshire, and quite rightly). The increase in national income tax (particularly for the top earners, taking them up to 50% tax) was to pay for improvements in services like the NHS and transport.

omg 31-05-2005 07:09 PM

doesnt seem to make any difference. if we were headed towards a lib parliment there would have been a few more gains this election. alas that it was not so. looks like the tories an labour gonna be the only people in power. untill the apocalypse that is.

i think they are shooting themslefs in the foot with increasing tax to the hier earners cuz people are tight. the press will never promote a party that is gonna tax them more.

its a shame becuse they come out with some wicked policies. i remeber hearing a liberal mp talking about how they would invest money in researching how to save the earth from a giant meteor, things like reprogramming our nukes so they could target objects in space.
if we ever get invaded by green aliens curse that you didnt vote libs!! there slow moving colony arcs would be vunarable to our nukes!!

PrejudiceSucks 31-05-2005 07:52 PM

I have to say that a 50% tax on the top 1% is a good idea, but with the influence those people have, they're wasting their time. If they said no tax for the top 1% they'd probably win.

I might be willing to help out, in exchange for an estate in Normandy once the fighting's done. You may not know this but a Dane is actually worth 20 million dirty foreigners (15 million clean ones). That would give you the advantage of numbers (in an abstract kind of way).

Carpets in pubs is not a good idea. They're bound to get disgusting. And if somebody vomits on them, they'll be difficult to clean.

The flavour of northern England is piss and blood. That and almost no fresh fruit and/or vegetables.

On the other hand, their baked good and fish + chips are pretty nice and in York there are a lot of good foreign restaurants.

I suppose that I preferred it 'down south' pretty much due to that the people are nicer and more intelligent, the food is better and that my southern accent hasn't really changed. So I get a lot of flak for that. But not like, out of cannons at my house. Merely verbal abuse... *sighs*

use the profits to get a cricket pitch for the gentlmens club.

PrejudiceSucks 05-06-2005 05:37 PM

I suggest asphixiating them in the smell of Lynx 24/7 just to make it more ironic. Just like that scene in Goldfinger, only with a more salad-esque smell.

Bwhahahahaha!

I say - use the profits to buy back Normandy and create an "English Gentelmens' Plantation" which could also include such things as a genuine french discoteque with ridiculously *meep*y house music on 24/6, with Sunday being reserved for a fusion of Brit-pop and Techno. I call it Brichno. Smooth eh?

Also, we could get the chavs in with Tim Westwood doing a set. But we need to leave him unharmed, he seems like a valuable ally.

omg 05-06-2005 05:51 PM

:D brichno!! :roflol: almost made me forget about smoking for a couple of seconds.
agreed we let westwood live. no one is unintentionally funnier. just listining to the man speak makes me and evryone i know break down into hysterics.

TW : Can you freestyle for us?

DR : How's about you do this every time, so no.

My mate has one, it's hilarious. The songs are a bit tedi-izzle though. Oh wizzle.

omg 05-06-2005 08:16 PM

you ever seen his cable tv show? its amazing. the moment that stands out in my mind was he was talkin to this new york rapper on "da streets" he said to the guy
"its proper brick out here innit" the rapper looked at him like he was some escaped loonatic. in fact evry rapper he ever talks to looks at him like he is some escaped loonatic.

PrejudiceSucks 05-06-2005 08:22 PM

Even Skinnyman who has clearly been living off benefits for the last 18 years sees him as crazy.

And it's on Channel U. I believe it's called Westwood Presents, although that could be one of his albums.

And don't overblow my shizzlarity, OMG.

omg 05-06-2005 11:19 PM

i belive your shizzlarity is safe. i can put it in a box to prevent it getting to overblowen.

PrejudiceSucks 06-06-2005 12:05 PM

Because as everyone knows 'shizzlarity is everything'. Remember that kids.

Anyways, back to more british debates, how does everyone feel about the current wave of music hitting our bonny shores?

omg 06-06-2005 12:09 PM

how do you mean old boy? the fact that crazy frog is at number one has meant i havnt turned my radio on for a while. in fact in general im a bit behind on the "current" musical trends.
going to see system of a down soon though!!

PrejudiceSucks 06-06-2005 12:13 PM

Cool. You off to Leeds Fest?

I recommend some import music like The Eels, although that goes against everything I stand for!

Hmm for british music I suggest something like the Sex Pistols or Faithless.

omg 06-06-2005 12:16 PM

im going to see system in brixton. would love to do some fests this year but need money. agreed with faithless, its a shame they are nearly over (just released a greatest hits, kiss of death) a uk act to watch out for is the Complete and Utter Needless Terrorism Society. coming to a pub near you soon, if they dont all kill each other.

PrejudiceSucks 06-06-2005 12:17 PM

LOL maybe at Fibbers in York. That'd be cool.

omg 06-06-2005 12:20 PM

if i hear they have a gig in the york area i will let you know. they just played with the anti nowhere leuge in norwhich and they getting some promotion behind them. i smell a tour coming.

A. J. Raffles 06-06-2005 12:48 PM

Get a grip on yourselves, chaps. The Sex Pistols? At the Gentlemen's Club? You must be joking. What's wrong with a bit of Elgar, anyway? :tai:

PrejudiceSucks 06-06-2005 03:02 PM

Uh yeah... just beacuse we're gentlemen doesn't mean that we're not down with 2 generations ago's kids.

Tomorrow = Final Countdown day (by Europe, natch).

Or possibly something like the Verve will do nicely. Good songs by them. Good songs.

So what does this club do?

omg 07-06-2005 07:31 AM

we chat about things in england. so far amongst other things it has included transcribing a british hero timothy westwood. and plotting how to restore our country to greatness by exterminating all the undesireables. (ie: shirt wearing morons who go out to bars get drunk, drive fiestas, start fights when in packs of 5 or more, have girlfreinds called *sharon or something*) we have been illuminated about a lot of icleanders being genitically descended from irish slaves.
just the normal things we british like to talk about over a cup of tea or a mug of ale and a copy of the times. while listining to cricket on the radio.
we also have a boxing ring but it is unused at the moment.
and i hope all members of the gentelmens club are planning to sojurn to see this movie as soon as it is released.

A. J. Raffles 07-06-2005 07:37 AM

The boxing ring is unused at the moment? Mustn't have that. :boxing:

Iron_Scarecrow 07-06-2005 07:55 AM

Hmmmm well I'm not english so I don't how much I can contribute to conversation but I'll use this boxing ring quite often. :boxing: :boxing:

I have very important question:

When English will drive on the same side of the road like the rest of the world? :blink:

BeefontheBone 07-06-2005 12:49 PM

Pah! We are keeping solidarity with the other 73 countries who drive on the left - 34% of the world's population, in fact. Admittedly, it's only us and Malta that do it anywhere near Europe, but that just goes to show the spiritual connections we have with bits of the Southern Hemisphere. or something.

Flop 07-06-2005 01:44 PM

Technically I guess it's about 1/3 of the worlds poopulation who drives on the left, but from what I've heard you drive pretty much where you want to in India, so I'm not sure that should count. :D

I would also like to point out that when the rest of us drives on the right side of the road, it follows that you drive on the wrong side. :D

PrejudiceSucks 07-06-2005 03:09 PM

Yeah, Spain and Greece should count as honourary right-hand drivers due to the astonishly poor driving quality there.

BeefontheBone 07-06-2005 03:19 PM

and Paris - standing on top of l'Arc de Triomphe is a scary thing.

PrejudiceSucks 07-06-2005 03:29 PM

Yeah, especially if you're scared of heights like oneself.

Not that it stops the incredible magnificence of my Britishularity. Uh... yes....

A. J. Raffles 07-06-2005 07:26 PM

You drive on the left in all the major countries. Like England. Or Swaziland.

PrejudiceSucks 07-06-2005 07:27 PM

Aye.

But that's not to say that we don't respect other countries. They're great too, it's just that ours is better.

What about der Schweiz? Driving on the left or right there?

A. J. Raffles 07-06-2005 07:43 PM

Well, yes. After all, they can't help not being English, can they? Poor sods...

I'm pretty sure the Swiss drive on the right, which seems a bit odd.

Flop 07-06-2005 07:44 PM

Nope, they drive on the right. They've realised that driving on the left poses a very real threat to me, whenever I visit their country. On that note, the last time I bummed around Europe, I went straight to Paris after 2-3 weeks in England and Scotland. I had just gotten used to look to the other side when crossing the road. Do you realise how dangerous it is looking to the right when crossing a street in Paris? :)

Rogue 07-06-2005 07:48 PM

LOL

Swaziland? LOL

Seems that Blair paid a visit to Bush. He needs some money to help ex-colonies... :blink:

Havell 07-06-2005 07:58 PM

It's not just us that had African Colonies. It's sort of traditional for the richer nations to look after their old colonies, we help out Sierra Leona and the French help the Ivovy Coast. The Americans seem unwilling to give aid to Liberia though.
The meeting between Blair and Bush was Blair asking Bush to cancel some of the African debts and Bush saying he'll only do it if he gets to reduce aid.

He came in the wrong time, as Bush is trying to figure out why we have so huge deficit for last couple of years....

There is always a joke of stupid americans, but after Bush took most of money from education, and after he made some reforms in education system, this nation will be dumber and dumber...

They will help him, but not much and not even close to what they hopped. (Bush does not care about some Aftrican countries, unless there is some Oil in them ;))

Sounds like a cunning way for him to get more people to vote Republican - widen the gap between rich and poor so the rich guys vote for them, but make the poor people too stupid to notice the propaganda they're being fed. Blasted neoconservatives! Anyone who doesn't care that their collective name sounds like something out of Nazi Germany worries me.

I think that what we need is to finish off the Crazy Frog. Any and all cost in human life is acceptable, no matter who they are.

Other than the clever types behind it.

My plan = Get Axel F and the guy who created the Crazy Frog together for a 'meeting' about a 'possible E.P'. Then we jump the bastards and knock the unconscious, preferably with something painful and so unpleasant that they collapse due to shock.

Then we get at least 30 Poison Arrow frogs and release them into the room in which they are sleeping. Chainsaws would not go amiss either.

To make it even more ironic, we then drive a broken moped (to make that bloody irritating noise) over their nearest and dearest.

Anyone up for that?

omg 08-06-2005 08:22 PM

yes. now. why are we waiting? the world needs this horror to end. now. just think of the children held in the grip of this horrific dueo. spending there parents hard earned cash on the most annoying thing in the world. its probably responsible for more collective stress than anything else that is going on in this country. anyone with the power to release something like that onto the british market is far to dangerous to be left alive.
for the Good of the Country We need to ACT now!

PrejudiceSucks 08-06-2005 08:25 PM

HUZZAH!!!

I suggest firstly that we write to the Daily Mail with a suggested headline:

Crazy Frog? BAN THIS SICK FILTH NOW!

ffs it's even gotten into Project Rockstar as an ad. Every bloody time my cursor goes over this irritatingly-placed banner it starts it's bloody song!

BeefontheBone 08-06-2005 08:26 PM

To be fair, the guy who created it has said that he was starting to hate himself just before he posted it on the internet - we could probably get him to top himself without too much effort; less blood on our hands that way. Although we'd probably be carried aloft throught the streets as national heroes if we did it.

PrejudiceSucks 08-06-2005 08:30 PM

I think the classic - 'String them up in town centre for all to see' tactic would work well here.

Then we could parade them around every Primary school in the country, in a campaign we could call Shock and Awe.

If we can fit it in, Secondary Schools would get it too. Just they Year 7 and 8s though.

Danny252 08-06-2005 08:32 PM

yey! Im year 8! woo! free stringing 'em up parades! erm, no costs, right?

PrejudiceSucks 08-06-2005 08:33 PM

The cost would be your life it was found as a ringtone/screensaver on your phone, but otherwise nothing.

Maybe we'd get a grant from the government too.

string them up. then tar and feather the promotional team. gonna check an see how many spam sites there are out there for crazy frog, with rouge nastys lurking on them. see what other moneys being made of this damn frog and cheezy techno alike combination. hopefully operation shock and awe will sufficently influence the coming generation, so that nobody gets it upon themselfs to repeat this madness. treatys must be sighned to insure the common mans security, that he will not be subjected to such a horror again!

we could get a public health grant to aid us upon this campaighn against the frog.

nooooo! it is the end, the frog spreads insidiusly, im going to get off the plane in germany and im going to hear the crazy frog on pA!! this vile filth must end before it consumes all as investors all say "hey ringtones are really big now" and the market is consumed in a deluge of novelty ringtone producers and agents. bands will be told after an a.r has scoped them "hey guys we see a future for you in ringtones" offices full of sweaty coked up ringtone administrators will soon appear blighting the landscape. the market will go into a flurry as people sell all to invest in ringtone stocks.
inevetably the big boys who have been massageing this trend scince the start will look around them at the fetid ringtone consultants, the animators reaching the point of suicide as they are asked to desighn yet another charector that combines "crazy" with "pro active" and they will realise there assests. then they will all have a party and laugth as the house of cards that they have built collapses, downsizes, the drones have to move on to other hives to clacker and sell. people become jobless, then homeless, and as for the investors who didnt get out of the novelty ringtone market in time hunch in cold concrete doorways thinking "why god, why" they will be driven to suicide as there one remaining piece of personall property beeps and automatically downloads the latest ring tone.
and its a remix of the crazy frog.
