This is a normal post Snafu sounds like a slang term for a vagina

This is a normal post Is there a TL:DR version?
My eyes started to glaze over and found myself grateful to all those swivel eyed loons that campaigned all the "Save the pound" stuff.

This is a normal post tl/dr greeks are all corrupt and still don't want to pay their taxes
This won't affect the EU at all, except in the short-term, as share/currency prices drop a little due to harmful speculation.

It won't really affect the greeks after the short-term either. Iceland defaulted on all its debts after the financial and its totally recovered and has its credit rating back again.

Money - Its all a load of bollocks and make believe anyway

Nb: I don't think greeks are all corrupt, but that's the implication at the start of the article

This is a normal post Ta.
So Greek crashing out would affect other countries struggling with large debts and be seen as an easy way out?

This is a normal post Yes...ish
The whole thing is really scaremongering as the banks *really* don't like people defaulting on big debts because it exposes the house of cards in which all money/debt is housed - So they say "You can't do that, the world will end!"

This is a normal post They are lazy though... still not finished that bloody Acropolis
and throwing the crockery on the floor at the end of every meal to get out of the washing up has cost them dearly.

This is a normal post I love Lanchester's writing on the economy
"Whoops" was very good on the financial crisis, if you haven't read it. His novels aren't bad either.

This is a normal post "Whoops" is on my wishlist.
I won a signed copy of Capital from this very website!

This is a normal post I was pretty nonplussed with his restaurant reviews - especially given that A Debt to Pleasure has to be one of the best food related novels ever written.
Edit: The Debt to Pleasure darn it.

This is a normal post No it couldn't
Spain and Portugal's economies are far less cause for concern now than four years ago. They're not great, but they're not staring down the barrel.

This is a normal post Not literally, more of a general comment on the Greek issues.

This is a normal post I've just typed some of the words from it.
Admittedly not all of them, but enough of them to prove to my own satisfaction that it could, in fact, have been written today.
