Apparently there is now something called boo for Boris which happens every Tuesday. So now they're finally dropping the clap for the NHS bullshit they've come up with another reason to scream and bang pans together. I wish they'd just be honest and create an 'I am an attention seeking retard who likes making loud noises' hashtag and have people clap for that. Unfortunately this would require a level of self-awareness that these fuckers just don't have.

granted, wrapping an egg in stuff isnβt a unique idea, but the argument that other things were wrapped around eggs before sausage meat doesn't mean that the idea of wrapping an egg in sausage meat wasnβt originated by Fortum and Mason.

The bloody Japs do everything the wrong way round.
Read the old instruction books wrong, I daresay. Light switches go up instead of down. Taps turn to the left. Door handles likewise. Why, they even race their horses clockwise instead of anti-clockwise like civilized people. As for Tokyo, it's bloody awful. It's either too hot or too cold or pouring with rain. And there's an earthquake about every day. But don't worry about them. They just make you feel slightly drunk. The typhoons are worse. If one starts to blow, go into the stoutest bar you can see and get drunk. But the first ten years are the worst. It's got its point when you know your way around. Bloody expensive if you live Western, but I stick to the back alleys and do all right. Really quite exhilarating. Got to know the lingo though, and when to bow and take off your shoes and so on. You'll have to get the basic routines straight pretty quickly if you're going to make any headway with the people you've come to see. Underneath the stiff collars and striped pants in the government departments, there's still plenty of the old samurai tucked away. I laugh at them for it, and they laugh back because they've got to know my line of patter. But that doesn't mean I don't bow from the waist when I know it's expected of me and when I want something.

Actually that line - "and I don't always look into the facts behind something before posting it" -
