I have to agree. I don't understand why people get so bitchy about it.

The English should basically be banned from trying to get suntans. We always do it wrong - you shoulda seen the amount of lobster tans Londoners were sporting a few weeks ago - and the Mediterraneans always have it going on properly on the tanning front. We should embrace our pasty-faced heritage and accept that we just ain't up to being bronzed.

I've never been able to see the appeal of James Joyce's writing, no matter how hard I've tried, and trust me, I did try many times. Perhaps this is not even an unpopular opinion because I'm well aware that he did have talent, I just don't like his books.

Obviously, it's a bit AIDS to argue with an opinion like this, but how do you get on with Hardy and the like?

I've only read Thomas Hardy's 'Jude The Obscure' and 'Life's Little Ironies', both of which I've enjoyed a lot, especially the former.

Not just the English. I've burnt my legs close to second degree. They're red and swollen but no blisters or peeling. It feels like being constantly kicked in the shins to walk around.

I tan fine, but I'm not English. In fact I tan without even trying.

Satan · 07.28.2009, 01:50 PM

i despise feminists and feminism and anyone who associates themselves with that movement

it was great in 1970 when women actually had something to gain from it
it's not going to get any more "equal", there is nothing to fight for (in this country at least) you have nothing to gain from your bitching except for a kick in the uterus so turn off lifetime and shut the fuck up.

MellySingsDoom · 07.28.2009, 01:53 PM

People who drop deadly meaty farts at gigs ought to either a) die, or b) have a large cork shoved up their fundament to stop them parping any more forever.

How many times did you have to "give permission" for Windows to open your browser so you could say that?

...that's the main reason people don't like it.

Oh, and it's buggy. And lots of things are incompatible with it. And it's ugly. And...

Sonic Youth 37 · 07.28.2009, 02:12 PM

Corvettes are ugly.

Satan · 07.28.2009, 02:13 PM

none. I only have to "give permisssion" when I have to update my browser, which is a pretty rare occurrence. I personally don't find it to be that big of a deal. You can disable them anyway.

Appearance-wise, I hated it at first, but got used to it after a week. Windows XP just looks incredibly clunky and archaic to me now. I guess I'm lucky to say I haven't ran into any bugs/incompatibility either, so huzzah for me.
