Red Roses For Me was a helluva start, but Rum, Sodomy and The Lash blew me away. 40 years later I still play it loud.

The 10 richest people in the world should be taxed 50% of their entire wealth while they stay in the top 10. If after paying it, they’re still in the top 10, then do it again next year.

We went to the same school, I was a couple of years behind you. I agree most were fairly decent, but MY GOD the sadness, the loneliness, they REEKED of it. And if you ever had occasion to be out in the real world with them, you saw how institutionalised they were, how bizarre it all was.

All-boys secondary boarding school survivor here. Rules were complicated. Being good at art (drawing, painting) was ok, but anything craft-y was gay. Learning guitar was fine, piano questionable, anything else gay. Reading was dodgy, unless it was Sven Hassel or something “sexy”. I could go on.

One more: it’s pronounced ba-nahl. Heard this mistake made twice, still have a little snort years later when I think of it

I love it. “But he wasn’t MY prince…” that’s not how things fucking work, boyo. You give yourself a hereditary monarchy, you deal with the consequences. But imagine if he’d been heir, and not nth in line; do we think the *rest* of the Royal Family would have stripped the King? Like fuck

You have (a) completely misunderstood my post, and (b) funnily enough, *proved my point for me*. Thanks for playing! See ya!

It’s pronounced Saoirse. Would you pronounce Juan as “Jew-an”? No, you’d find out what way it’s pronounced *in the language it’s written in*. The letters of the name are not English; they’re Irish, but there’s overlap in the alphabets used. Irish has 18 letters, English 26, Spanish 27 (and so on).
