“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.
See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”
(Isaiah 43:18-19)
Oh no.
Back in the 90s, as a young chap, I worked long hours in a dumpy factory stapling the backs onto mirrors and picture frames. There were 12 of us, and one fat bastard slob of a boss. We stood at benches all day stapling.
We were forced to listen to Metro FM, which had a playlist of about 30 songs, and one of those songs was Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart.
The fat bastard boss, who actually let lads fight in the workplace, started demanding that we all " turn around " when Bonnie reached the ''Turn around bright eyes'' bit in the song.
This then became a routine. You'd hear the opening bars of the power ballad, then a couple of moments later, spluttering through a burger:
''Alright ya bastards, turn around for Bonnie!''
And so we did, 12 of us, spinning for Bonnie, multiple times a day, every time she said ''Turn around bright eyes!'' like chavy ballet dancers on £90 a week.
I’m not finding the Clacton by-election shitshow remotely funny—not even the Count Binface bit of it.
Country is going down the pan & this is what people do to smooth the way. Fine, fine, absolutely grand.
The trend of women complaining about their men is kind of jarring bc unless you’re in an abusive situation it is very much your own choice to put up with whatever indignities you’re announcing on the internet. Either sort it out with him or dump him lol.
They don't want people to figure out that if they just get off their arse they can fix their own community in 2 weeks. They want you to keep paying them taxes so they can fix your community for you. In 3 years. Maybe. Probably not.
The way Alex Philips talks in that pouting, babyish manner like Elizabeth I in Blackadder just boils my piss.
Hasn't she got a producer or something to tell her to stop pronouncing it as Westore Bwitain?
Many people consider themselves atheists, but the truth is that everyone’s life is ordered toward an ultimate good. Atheists merely replace God with idols like wealth, pleasure, power and honour.
The worship of false gods is incompatible with Western civilisation which was formed by Christendom.
