i have a question
what is the point of welsh, please?
( rachelswipe with a fork, Thu 3 Jan 2013, 11:38, 5 replies, latest was 12 years ago)

The language or the people?
Tread very carefully here

the bureaucracy which means that any forms
have to come printed in both languages, which means 3 x as much paper because welsh is so self-indulgent and LONG, and free translators/advice for welsh speakers which the english do not get, but i presume we pay for. roar.

That is the most middle-class bit of moral crusading I've ever seen

It's a beautiful-sounding ancient language which provides a direct connection to Britain's pre-Roman past?
Need anything else?

( rachelswipe with a fork, Thu 3 Jan 2013, 11:43, Reply)

I couldn't agree less.
I'd go with 'mellifluous', myself. I like the language, the country and the people.

(esp. a certain mr S. Stevens.)

i hope this is sarcasm

( rachelswipe with a fork, Thu 3 Jan 2013, 11:46, Reply)

It isn't at all.
I like the curmudgeonly buggers a lot, and I truly believe the sound of the language to be musical and pleasant on the ears. It's the closest to a 'pure' Celtic tongue still in use (sorry Paddies).

It sounds lovely. One of the few British accents not to make the speaker sound thick as fuck.

I picked up a few cans to abate my hangover on New Years Day
Finished them, along with a bottle of wine last night. Fucking terrible idea, just glad they're gone though.

No it isn't

Stacy, from 'Gavin And Stacy' sounds like a fucking retard.
Nice tits though.

What the juddering fuck are you doing watching that godawful shite?!

I once caught a few minutes of it
That was enough. She gets her tits out in Love Actually.
( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Thu 3 Jan 2013, 12:06, Reply)

Oh yeah, that was her.
That Keira Knightley gets hers out in Domino.
( Kroney, Thu 3 Jan 2013, 12:08, Reply)

She also got them out in 'The Hole'
However, she was so flat chested, you could barely tell.
( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Thu 3 Jan 2013, 12:09, Reply)

I don't mind them.
I'm more nice vs nasty than big vs small.

You two are Seth Rogen's mates from Knocked Up AICMFP
A film in which, VERY annoyingly, Katherine Heigl resolutely keeps her bra on during bang-bang.
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 3 Jan 2013, 12:10, Reply)

Tbh, there aren't many breasts from film that I have committed to mammory
Erika Eleniak still has the finest pair IMHO. Jamie Lee Curtis' aren't bad though, mind.

Also, I've barely seen any Seth Rogen films.

So assuming equal attractiveness in all other areas
saggy tits and great body or great tits but saggy body?
( Kroney, Thu 3 Jan 2013, 12:13, Reply)

When you say "all other areas"
the body does take up quite a lot of those. I assume you mean face. I'd go for great tits and saggy arse over the reverse, but if the legs are swathed in cellulite, that's a dealbreaker /LizLemonlols
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 3 Jan 2013, 12:15, Reply)

I once mentioned that an ex of mine had developed cellulite so bad that Stevie Wonder could read it.
Someone told her.

Not a good night.

The writings on the wall for that relationship

Well, I meant face, personality, intelligence
and all that other shit straight men don't give a fuck about.
( Kroney, Thu 3 Jan 2013, 12:17, Reply)

Ah, this is a theoretical situation whereby I am
a) single
b) on the lookout
c) attractive to women

One girl from last year had possibly the most pert breasts I've ever seen in a larger bra.

I've got a proper Hobbes choice at the moment.
In such situations I usually answer "both" and get in trouble.

Apparently it's "Hobson's Choice" and I've completely misused it, anyway.

It's a Brythonic language from the same root as Manx and Breton.
Originally it was spoken by everybody in the south of Britain before the language was supplanted during the Saxon cultural revolution.

Happy to help.
