Al probably thinks he's great, smash the system, down with homework etc.

I like to polish Bobs head and belly after he's finished his hard day upsetting Swipey

I want to like him.
I want to think he's fighting for the working man. Standing up for the under dog. Making sure that worker's rights aren't trampled under the foot of heartless big business and distant ivory towered government. I want to think he lives, breathes and bleeds the plight of the needy, the struggle of the poor. That he stands for all that is good and worthy about the British worker. That he represents everything a union should be about. That he is, above all, one of us.

And then he opens his fat fucking smug mouth.

I listened to the Phosphoresence album
it was pretty good. I didn't like it as much as I liked Iron and Wine, but it was a good album to stick on while I lay in the bath and stretched my neck.

Good stuff.
His last album is an altogether more country affair and is pretty good.
Today's recommendations are:
Damien Jurado - I can't stand singer-songwriters, but he is an exception;
Willard Grant Conspiracy - if you fancy some 'Americana'

He gets £140k a year
Champagne socialist.
(localboy purveyor of pisspoor puns, Tue 18 Dec 2012, 12:20, Reply)

The term champagne socialist annoys me
it is possible to earn a lot of money and still want better conditions for the majority of people and pay your fair share towards that. That's the whole point of Socialism rather than Communism.

The fact that he earns a lot of money doesn't make him a cunt.

The fact that he is a cunt makes him a cunt.

and yet, lots of people believe that if someone has had a "privilaged" upbringing
then they can't seriously care about "poorer people"
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Tue 18 Dec 2012, 12:28, Reply)

i thought champagne socialist referred to those born in money, who had never worked, that became socialist pushers?

I don't know, but even if it did, so what?
What is the problem with people lucky enough to be born with means trying to put those means to good use?
( Bazongaloid, Tue 18 Dec 2012, 12:32, Reply)

no, I'm with you Al,
It is a bullshit phrase.
( Windy Pig I'm naturally quite suspicious about the moon., Tue 18 Dec 2012, 12:34, Reply)

agreeing with Al here
If he was earning that much and avoiding paying tax on it, then that would be hypocrisy regarding his socialism. One guy I know claims to be an 'anarcho-socialist'(I know) yet objects to paying tax. He also thinks that pension companies rip off 'the poor' in spite of the fact that you need disposable income to invest in a private pension, so are unlikely to be on the breadline.

He's a bit of a nob.
