The guy actually gave him two quid after the translation!
In similar economic news, I just spent £500 on CS4 this afternoon because Adobe are also cunts and don't support the Canon 5D Mark 2's raw files in CS3
talk about how they make their money :(

Why didn't you get a student to buy it?
You must have some school/uni age relative that could have bought it for £100.
You have to be cunning to beat weasels

oh dear
from what i've read you're going to regret getting CS4. They have started using Flash to create quirky GUI components and dialogs.
Good luck to you!

I feel sorry for RBS employees
as most of the 141,000 people employed by the bank have nothing to do with the actual problems the bank is in. also most of them earn low salaries and rely on the bonus's in order to actual have a good income.

To be fair though I work for RBS on a low salary and I AM a total cunt.
I imagine the evil overlords scouring the internet for their employees have my demise planned even as I type this.

and must be newslettered - pronto Rob :)
Cunts like these assisted in me being made redundant (not yet gone as I'm still on gardening leave)and I have a hatred of city types having been in their IT departments for 12 cunting years and seeing them acting the cunt all the time.

great video but that copper's a twunt
Although correct about Section 5 of the Public Order Act 1986 proscribing the use of "threatening, abusive, insulting words or behaviour or disorderly behaviour within the hearing or sight of a person likely to be caused harassment, alarm or distress by that behaviour",
there must be a victim present at the scene for this offence to be made out. There blatantly aren't any victims around when he's asking her what's on her shirt. Must've missed the part where he was being "quite polite" too...

I'm afraid I'm on the side of the old bill on this one
I'm a huge advocate of the word ‘Cunt’ and I agreed with the late great George Carlin when he said the following about offensive words:
"There is absolutely nothing wrong with any of those words in and of themselves. They're only words. It's the context that counts. It's the user. It's the intention behind the words that makes them good or bad. The words are completely neutral. The words are innocent. I get tired of people talking about bad words and bad language. Bullshit! It's the context that makes them good or bad. The context."
You come to a website like b3ta and you expect to see cunts everywhere (literally and figuratively), and while the cause of what those guys were doing was certainly funny and arguably morally virtuous, calling random office workers, some of whom may just work in HR or IT, walking out of a building "you cunt" I think is a step too far, which is a shame because everything else about this skit was great.
I suspect someone was quite rightly offended by some girl waving a collection tin and calling them a cunt and made a complaint to the Police, which they're duty bound to investigate. He could have been politer to her from the outset though.

Me too
*unlurks*
Freedom of speech and all that, but regardless of what the parent company have done, calling someone a cunt because of who they work for when their very livelihood may be hanging in the balance is a bit off too in my opinion,
I don't like that girl. full of e4 presenter blasé and had total disrespect for authority, if a policeman asks you to do something, you do it, end of. Regardless of how 'wacky and 'zany' you want to be. Observe how the cameraman is inching away all the while, and the guy actually seems to observe the gravity of the situation and tells her to take it off. It'd be a great one to explain to mummy and daddy and to work (assuming she does) "I've been arrested" "what for" "well..."
And people above are moaning about the policeman being a bit rude when she's walking around with 'cunt' written on her back? And fair do's there 'wasn't anybody around' whilst he was talking to her but he's obviously steered her away from the RBS building because if someone's riled up enough to call the police then you want them away from there, like i said, some people could be losing their jobs and livelihoods, and being called a cunt could tip them over into a drama student killing spree.

"Cunt"?...
...vs ""Smartarse" (as used by the copper). 'Offensive' language is a matter of opinion.
Get arrested and play the tape of the hypocritical and arrogant copper back in court.

You what?
"if a policeman asks you to do something, you do it, end of."
No. They don't get to tell civilians what to do. That's not what the police are for, nor is that within their rights.

I'm with you on that...
...he was trying to intimidate her into doing what he said without answering her polite questions about what law she was breaking. A police officer is not the law.
