    Can I have some of whatever you're on?

    The stuff that makes you speak in an entirely parallel language where words take on whole new meanings...

    I'm enjoying its effects, but left feeling slightly dazed by the trajectory of your wit, tonight.

    The powers that wannabee have removed my signature. The interfering little snots:mad:

    I liked my signature!!!!

    I have composed an email to Martin the Miser demanding it's return.

    It begins Dear Big Boy and mentions the fond memories I have of our weekend in Bognor Regis.

    It doesn't mention the photos I took of him in his spanx.

    The male ego is so easily bruised........

  • My GSCE syllabus seem entirely WAll Strret crash and WW2. In fact, I think most of secondary school history was the World wars. :(

    We did 1918 to 1945 for GCSE, but lots of medieval stuff, Agricultural and Industrial Revolutions, etc, before that.

    My Granny was very indignant about my GCSE, though. "I was born three years before that course starts! History! Humph!"
    ...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.
  • but yes, loads of wars. Especially because at the time GCSE English also spent a LONG time over the better known War Poets.

    Its like a preparation for profound despair into adulthood.

    I remember one half-term when I was in the fifth form reading "Jude the Obscure" followed by "Tess of the D'Ubervilles, which was a very depressing combination.
