New York
I read this piece about living in New York in today's paper. It's hilarious. :)
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz...nightmare.html |
she sounds like an idiot... you don't have to walk 24 blocks in manhattan without a cab. the subway is all over the place... and i've spent a grand total of 16 days in nyc.
also, if she wants more space, why doesn't scope out some other areas for an apartment? if she could figure out the fucking subway then maybe she'd realize that she could live further than 24 blocks away. |
Is this bitch seriously complaining about a 24 block commute? In any case, I'm totally content with her being unhappy. The last thing we need is more stupid fucking people. Watch, in two years she'll be calling herself a fucking New Yorker and I'll be hating her even more.

boo hoo, i can't afford a cab everyday,

There really is no need to take it personally.

Without reading the article, I'm guessing as it's in the Daily Mail they've managed to segue a little bit about how climate change is the fault of politically correct Pakistani midgets living in England on £100k PA benefits, right?

I've always loved the fact Daily Mail articles mentally scar Guardianistas, hence their demented diatribes over it on the net whenever it gets name-dropped. The Daily Mail is the second biggest-selling daily newspaper in the UK. Whereas the Morning Star for the middle class is the second least-selling daily newspaper in the UK. No wonder Guardian readers feel a bitter grievance towards the Daily Mail. Guardian readers are going to feel even more bitterly aggrieved over the fact the paper they love to jizz over may fold, along with The Observer, as a direct result of The Guardian Media Group losing £24 million in the currency market, no doubt adding to the total of £90 million it announced it has lost in the past year. Back to reading "The Beano" for you, eh? :) |

newspapers are a dying format anyway due to the internet and cable tv amongst others. unless its some rag like the daily mail with the emphasis on more sensational headlines than actual newsworthy fare. |
who
the fuck buys newspapers to read about shit like this? |
Quote:
2,178,640 people do. |
that explains a lot.
|
haha, you read the daily mail!

If I wanted right-wing papers (and it might surprise you to learn that that's precisely my preference), the Daily Mail would be the last I would read. The Guardian, meanwhile, is for yoghurt-weaving shits with fuck all to say, who don't mind a poorly-proofed and often rush-written pile of turd. The Mail's popularity has nothing to do with my disdain towards it; the atom-thin insinuation, their incessant negativity and unrelentingly poisonous rhetoric has a lot to do with it. The copy-editors let people like Jan Moir get away with little short of murder, because they know full well that a well-reasoned right-wing paper is far less sellable than hysterical rubbish. The Guardian will probably fold in the next year; I think the Observer's already going. And good riddance. Except there were some good cookery article in the Observer food monthly from time-to-time. |
y'know, this type of article is equivalent to that filler minute at the end of the local news broadcast where they show shit like water skiing squirrels and the world's largest lasagna...

Links please.

I get my news from various sources, mainly internet but when I buy a newspaper it's the Guardian or nothing. |
It may interest you to know that, come 1990, I was anticipating going through puberty about 5 or more years in the future.
But otherwise, fair point. |
I know someone who finished doing freelancing for the Mail on Sunday a few weeks ago with the words: ''I owe the world 5 months of socialism''. He also does freelancing for The Guardian, occasionally. He told me that he wanted to drown Jan Moir in loo-vomit, on his last day at the Mail. I suggested to him that he should have dumped a dead gay in her bedroom, and then write on a national newspaper about it.

What a whiner. Man and the radiator comment about it being "ancient" and not getting what she wants. This *girl* acts like she's a rich 5-year old and hasn't embraced what normal folk living is. The subway resembles a bowl of dropped spaghetti? The bitch probably hasn't even been on a subway in her life, so no shit. Too "poor" for her class
|
Curiously enough, the political dynamics of UK newspapers interests me a bit more than the dynamics of American papers. Of course the disposition of the popular right to sensational vanity carries over.
|
i dont like news or newspapers at all.

I get the sense that polarisation occurs in America through radio and cable TV whereas over here its The Mail, Guardian, Telegraph etc. |
Quote:
As do 2,178,640 others. How many read the Guardian? Haha. |
as if thats a lot of people.
they can genocide that easily. |

Quote:
It is when compared to the number that reads "The Guardian", but then more people read "Flower Arranging Monthly" than "The Guardian". :) |
I find both papers despicable in their own ways. The Daily Mail because it's a package of hatred daily shitting on anything resembling human dignity. The Guardian for being a spineless timewaster with the occasional moment of brilliance, which happens too seldom to classify as genuine, or at least relevant to the reputation it aims to maintain, opposition.

And the popular right, of course: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9go38MgZ4w8 Same goes for a lot of the popular left, I'm afraid. |

i haven't a clue as i don't read myself either, but what's your point? the eagles have sold way more records than sonic youth and millions of people watch x factor |

My point is The Daily Mail clearly appeals to a helluva lot more people than The Guardian does. In fact all, bar one, of the other UK papers appeals to a lot more people than The Guardian does. One would think The Guardian was an underground paper. |
and the point is?

The people of the UK think The Guardian is a shit newspaper. |
what does that say about the people of the uk in general??
