Title: The All New Quote Of The Day Thread
Post by: Barman on October 29, 2013, 12:14:20 PM
Quote
Sometimes, I remember what my real purpose is in this world. It is to defy conventional thinking, standards and norms at all costs. I don’t trust in authority or people who think they know. In my estimation, a belief I’ve held since long before I ever knew I held beliefs, ‘experts’ exist only to be mocked and lampooned for thinking that I want to clap along with them or parade around in one of their approved sets of padding and proper helmet.. It isn’t, of course, the case that I’ve any brilliance to compensate for such a vacuum. I don’t. I make shit up, figure it out on the fly. I like that. That is the point of life – my life, anyway…

“It [the State] has taken on a vast mass of new duties and responsibilities; it has spread out its powers until they penetrate to every act of the citizen, however secret; it has begun to throw around its operations the high dignity and impeccability of a State religion; its agents become a separate and superior caste, with authority to bind and loose, and their thumbs in every pot. But it still remains, as it was in the beginning, the common enemy of all well-disposed, industrious and decent men.”

Quote
The scandal has caused the biggest diplomatic rift between Germany and the US in living memory, reports the BBC's Damien McGuinness in Berlin

As PE pointed out, you'd have thought Germany declaring war on the USA in 1941 or the 4 years after might just have been a tad worse.

On Paxman vs Clegg

Quote
That’s not entirely true – he is not sneering at politics, he is sneering at politicians and quite rightly too – they are rogues, charlatans, mountebanks and popinjays who feed off the lifeblood of the electorate, arse-raping our wallets to fund their lavish salaries and expenses (not to mention funding the vile unelected and unaccountable fake charities, quangos and various single-issue lobby groups who are intent upon restricting our liberties even further) and reward us with freedom inhibiting legislation such as this (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/law-and-order/10437127/New-Asbo-plans-are-assault-on-basic-freedom-says-former-DPP-Lord-Macdonald.html) truly egregious example. They are the scum of the Earth and every one of them deserves to end up with their heads on spikes outside Traitor’s Gate. Despicable filth that they are. Yup, the media luvvies ain’t far behind, but they are just far enough behind for me to side with them when it comes to a dog-fight. And for Clegg to suggest that Paxman is being parasitic displays a massive lack of self-awareness. But, then, he is a politician, so self-awareness is not to be expected. If he had any, he would take a one-way trip to Dignitas (and take the Cameroid and Milipede with him).

We are told that the troops died for our freedom. That is a big lie. Now it’s true we don’t live under an overt Nazi or Communist government, but are we free?

After a century of mechanised, industrialised warfare, if the troops really died for our freedom, we should be more free than people were in 1913 in Britain. We are not. In 1913 hardly anyone paid income tax now most everyone does. Our money at the time was real gold backed money, not fiat currency and we hardly any national debt. The police didn’t have thousands of different trivial statutes to enforce. The government didn’t lecture us on how much we drank or smoked nor criminalised what we said. We were allowed to be armed in our self-defence. In short, we enjoyed relative freedom.

A hundred years later, all this is gone. So did they really die to make us free? No, they died so a different gang of gangsters could use violence and coercion to enforce their will upon us.

Freedom is the freedom not to do what some kind of a majority want you to.  Freedom isn’t the right to vote, it’s about what is left to the individual.  And that is precious little thee days.  The state interferes in everything from health and education, to how you must rummage through your own garbage.  It interferes in private contracts and personal diets. It says where you can live, what you can eat and drink and when.  It decides how much of your property it will steal and what means of exchange you must use.  And increasingly it is asking you to account for yourself to its bureaucrats.   It even says what you are allowed to say and what speech is doubleplus ungood.

It says where you can live, what you can eat and drink and when.  It decides how much of your property it will steal and what means of exchange you must use.  And increasingly it is asking you to account for yourself to its bureaucrats.   It even says what you are allowed to say and what speech is doubleplus ungood.

I did not tramp about London in the rain shoving unread leaflets through disinterested letter-boxes, one small atom in the maelstrom of activity that resulted in the despatch of the New Labour terror from office, in order to continue to be lectured by charities and government officials about the amount of alcohol I swallow. I'm sick of it – the lecturing, not the alcohol.

The health-industry corollary of the Labour nannying is a new medical priesthood, with its litany of anti-smoking, anti-drinking, pro-physical-jerking incantations.

At a meeting of an EU committee on agricultural policy a delegate from France was extolling the virtues of a particular practice adopted with great success by farmers in the north west of his country. He commended it to other nations, who he believed could also benefit from “la sagesse normande”.
 
He was then most disconcerted when his remarks were met by gales of laughter from the British delegation. Over their headphones they had just heard the interpreter inform them that the speaker had advised all present to follow the example of Norman Wisdom.

Let us not forget that after New York, London is the world's leading services centre. The sector brings in about £60bn in tax every year, more than 10% of the government's entire budget. We need it to succeed, and retain talent – which means paying them world market rates. That's what we do with footballers – John Terry is paid £6.7m a year, Wayne Rooney is on £15.1m and Steven Gerrard picks up £7.2m and got an MBE too. But football clubs are very small businesses compared to banks. Though a world footballing brand, Manchester United's capitalization is just £2.47bn; the market capitalization of RBS is seventeen times bigger, at £41.8bn. Should we be surprised if star performers in RBS are paid seventeen times what Rooney earns? But in fact we baulk when they are paid fifteen times less.

Mr Buckland calls his law the ‘Cinderella Law’ and states, possibly for the purpose of the required media sound-bite, that his target is the proverbial wicked Step-mother, which makes his proposal all the more nonsensical. Society has never yet found a way of forcing genetic parents to actually ‘love’ the brawling, squalling, mucus covered, little git that God blessed them with; nor to show overt interest into what goes in one end nor out the other. They either do or they don’t, and the threat of ten years peace and quiet at Her Majesty’s Pleasure, far, far, away from the trials and tribulations of dealing with the end result of that unwise coupling isn’t going to seem like much of a deterrent.

In a thread about farming elephants rather than banning trade in ivory which obviously results in poaching...

Quote from: PaulB
Has anyone ever, under any ivory trading rules, farmed elephants – African elephants in particular? Or is this another fantasy policy from UKIP?

The economics of the situation would seem to be that it’s a lot cheaper to buy elephant tusks from poachers than to farm them. So if you allow the sale of elephant tusks from supposedly legitimate sources, in countries, Zimbabwe for example, where officialdom may not be wholly trustworthy, the result will be a trade in poached ivory.

And this was the reply...

Quote from: Interested
@PaulB – as far as I know (I’m not a member of or a voter for), no, it’s not UKIP policy – any more than you once had a mate who took acid, thought he could fly and jumped off some scaffolding, you trolling liar.

(I’m just about willing to believe a man took acid and jumped off some scaffolding, as per all those urban legends; it’s the idea that you once had a mate which I find incredible.)

What it is is a comment thread on a blog, in which we consider whether

i) Law enforcement can stop the trade in ivory (hasn’t worked with acid, ask your pretend mate, but possibly it can reduce it)

and

ii) Whether some form of legalised trade might allow elephants to take on a value beyond the merely touristic, which would give notoriously greedy and poverty-stricken kleptocracies – such as your leftist fellow traveller Robert Mugabe’s Zimbabwe – a reason to protect them, rather than look the other way and take their cut of the increased value in the ivory, increased value that is produced by prohibition.

You stupid, snarky cunt.

Haven’t seen you around for a while, I was hoping you were lying in your own piss and shit, dying of thirst in one of your beloved NHS hospitals.

BrewDog has fallen foul of the Portman Group code again, this time for its 3.8% ABV Dead Pony Club beer.

http://www.morningadvertiser.co.uk/Drinks-Brands-News/3.8-ABV-BrewDog-beer-falls-foul-of-the-Portman-Group (http://www.morningadvertiser.co.uk/Drinks-Brands-News/3.8-ABV-BrewDog-beer-falls-foul-of-the-Portman-Group)

...and the reply from BrewDog...

Quote
“On behalf of BrewDog PLC and its 14,691 individual shareholders, I would like to issue a formal apology to the Portman Group for not giving a shit about today’s ruling. Indeed, we are sorry for never giving a shit about anything the Portman Group has to say, and treating all of its statements with callous indifference and nonchalance.”

“Unfortunately, the Portman Group is a gloomy gaggle of killjoy jobsworths, funded by navel-gazing international drinks giants. Their raison d’être is to provide a diversion for the true evils of this industry, perpetrated by the gigantic faceless brands that pay their wages. Blinkered by this soulless mission, they treat beer drinkers like brain dead zombies and vilify creativity and competition. Therefore, we have never given a second thought to any of the grubby newspeak they disseminate periodically.”

“While the Portman Group lives out its days deliberating whether a joke on a bottle of beer is responsible or irresponsible use of humour, at BrewDog we will just get on with brewing awesome beer and treating our customers like adults. I’m sure that makes Henry Ashworth cry a salty tear into his shatterproof tankard of Directors as he tries to enforce his futile and toothless little marketing code, but we couldn’t give a shit about that, either.”

“We sincerely hope that the sarcasm of this message fits the Portman Group criteria of responsible use of humour,” he added.

I think most people now realise that I really didn’t say the n-word. But as a result of the lurid headlines I realise I must turn over a new leaf.

I’ve been told by BBC chiefs that I’m drinking at the last-chance saloon so from now on I shall arrive at work on a bicycle with a copy of The Guardian under my arm, and at lunchtime, instead of moaning about how everything on the menu is vegetarian, I shall cheerily ask for extra lentils in my nuclear-free peace soup. Also I must remember when I’m in a lift to not goose Mary Beard.

I’ve even been informed that I must maintain these standards when I’m not at work. So no more sneezing into my hand just before I press the flesh with Ed Miliband. No more drunken shooting parties. And I shall immediately change the name of my scotty dog from Didier Dogba to Tony Blair.

Here, of course, in my little corner of The Sunday Times there can be no more columns about how badgers have killed all the nation’s hedgehogs and must be exterminated immediately. To keep my job I must become like the love child of Polly Tonybee and Brian May.

IIRC the BBC bought back the rights last year.

But what good is having the rights when all know the show is all about Clarkson.  He could easily have a programme called "Fill your Trousers" and the viewers would follow so the BBC might as well sell him back the name.

But does either TG or Clarkson really have that rosy a TV future?  Both are looking old and tired imho.

The bulk of Top Gear is owned by JC and Andy Wilman, the producer. They go back a long way - if memory serves - from when they both were at Performance Car in the 1990's.

JC's articles even then in a sort of pre-PC world were always contentious.

The 'product' is built around JC, so they could call it "Wanked out old Bangers" and many people would still watch it due to him fronting the show.

I recycle as little as possible, for moral reasons.

The moral reason being that the council’s mandatory recycling programme with its baffling assortment of unsightly coloured tubs cluttering up my driveway and the horribly inconvenient fortnightly bin collection is an affront to liberty, reason, and Steveanessence.

Thankfully the privately run tip is a short drive away, so on weekends I load up my 4×4 with black bin bags full of dead batteries, soiled nappies, plastic bottles, and low energy lightbulbs, then toss them into the pit marked “non-recyclable waste”.

I’ve always hated The Environment ever since I saw that rat-faced idiot Swampy on the telly with his lice-ridden, dreadlocked, trustafarian chums trying to stop a perfectly good bypass from being built.

Looking at their gaunt, pale faces and mad, staring eyes and grubby, benefit-scrounging hands I knew then that I would devote my life to fighting The Environment and all its evil, germy, spidery works.

Fuck you, The Environment. You’re the bastard who invented wasps.

Quote from: Frank Davis
But it’s all concealed through the use of a language in which meanings have become inverted, so that “crisis” really means “no crisis”, “choice” really means “no choice”, “allow” really means “disallow”, and “helping” people really means “forcing” them, and so on. And all bolstered by a garbled mish-mash of conflicting “beacons” and “role models” and “incentives”.

THE EU has threatened to send your elderly expat relatives home to live with you.

Proposed restrictions on immigration to Britain have been countered by emigration restrictions, meaning the silver-haired monsters usually confined to Skype will instead be inhabiting your spare room.

European Commission boss Manuel Barroso said: “You complain that immigrants don’t integrate, don’t speak the language, and don’t respect your culture while sending us these wrinkled, reactionary sponges of sunlight?

“You moan of health tourists while sticking us with 70-year-olds yet to accept the link between smoking and cancer, and of criminals while literally renaming an area the Costa del Crime.

“Well, they’re all coming back. Oh, and bad news: their villas are worth nothing, so they’re moving in with you.

“Their bigoted breakfast table views on everything from marmalade to CBeebies will be a constant reminder that you did this to yourselves by voting UKIP.”

Returning expatriates will be kept in detainment camps for the first six weeks while they adjust to Britain not being anything like the Daily Mail has told them it is.

Yes it's a fake from the Daily Mash (http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/news/international/eu-threatens-to-send-expatriate-grandparents-home-2014102191918) but make me laugh

An Eritrean friend, who declined to be named, said:

"We all come here for the same purpose - to leave behind a terrible war, a terrible place for somewhere safe where we can live with peace and respect. That is all we seek and, as you can see, we will take any risk to achieve it.”

So there's a risk in places like France and Germany then?

Hello Jo, thanks for your open letter, I do remember you from the melee outside RBS and firstly, I'd like to say sorry for your paella getting cold. It's not nice to suffer because of actions that are nothing to do with you. I imagine the disabled people of our country who have been hit with £6bn of benefit cuts during the period that RBS received £46bn of public bail-out money feel similarly cheesed off.
I can't apologise for the RBS lockdown though mate because, I don't have the authority to close great big institutions – even ones found guilty of criminal activity.
The locking of the doors and your tarnished lunch came about as the result of orders from 'the faceless bosses' upstairs after I wandered in on my own while we secretly filmed from across the street – then security swarmed, all the doors were locked and crowds gathered outside. I must say Jo; it felt like RBS had something terrible to hide. But more of that in a minute.
Neither was I there for publicity, although you could be forgiven for thinking that; for many years I have earned my money (and paid my taxes) by showing off. If I needed negative publicity (and, believe me, that's all talking publicly about inequality can ever get you) I could get it by using the 'N word' on telly, or putting a cat in a bin, or having a romantic liaison with the lad from TOWIE.
I was there with filmmaker Michael Winterbottom making a documentary about how the economic crises caused by the banking industry (RBS were found guilty of rigging Libor and the foreign exchange) has led to an economic attack on the most vulnerable people in society. I don't want to undermine your personal inconvenience Jo, I'd be the first to admit that I'm often more vexed by little things; iPhone chargers continually changing makes me as angry as apartheid – so I can't claim any personal moral high ground, but a chance to make a film that highlights how £80bn of austerity cuts were made, punishing society's most vulnerable during the same period that bankers awarded themselves £81bn in bonuses was irresistible.
The mob upstairs at RBS who exiled you with your rapidly deteriorating lunch have had £4bn in bonuses since the crash. Do they deserve our money more than Britain's disabled? Or Britain's students who are now charged to learn? Is that fair?
They were some of the questions I was hoping to ask your boss – but we got no joy through the 'proper channels' so we decided to just show up.
Not just to RBS, but also to Lloyds, HSBC and Barclays. I know that the regular folk on the floor aren't guilty of this trick against ordinary people; they're like anyone, trying to make ends meet. As you point out though, it's hard to get to the men at the top so we were forced into door-stopping and inadvertent lunch spoiling. The good news is that this film and even this correspondence will reach hundreds of thousands of people and they'll learn how they're being conned by the financial industry and turned against one another – that's got to be a good thing, even if it makes me look a bit of a twit in the process and the national dish of Spain is eaten sub-par.
Now I'll be the first to admit your lunch has been an unwitting casualty in this well-intentioned quest but I couldn't resist the opportunity to ask new RBS boss Ross McEwan if he thinks it's right that he got a £3.2m 'golden hello' when the RBS is sellotaped together with money that comes from everyone else's taxes. I wonder what he would've said? Or whether it's right that Fred 'the shred' (he shredded evidence of impropriety) Goodwin gets to keep his £320k a year pension while disabled people have had their independent living fund scrapped.
And it's not just RBS mate. Lloyds, Barclays, Citibank and HSBC have all been found guilty of market rigging and not one banker has been jailed.
Trillions of public money lost and stolen and no one prosecuted. Remember in the riots when disaffected youth nicked the odd bottle of water or a stray pair of trainers? Criminal, I agree. 1800 years worth of sentences were meted out in special courts, to make an example. Some crime doesn't pay, but some crime definitely does. My school mate Leigh Pickett, a fireman is being told that he and his colleagues won't be able to collect their pension until five years later than agreed, five more years of backbreaking, flame engulfed labour – why? Because of austerity.Put simply Jo, the banks took the money, the people paid the price.
I was there to ask a few questions to the guilty parties, now I know that's not you, you're just a bloke trying to make a crust and evidently you like that crust warm – but again, it wasn't me who locked the RBS, I just asked a few difficult questions and the place went nuts. The people that have inconvenienced homeowners, pensioners, the disabled and ordinary working Brits are the same ones who inconvenienced you that lunchtime. They've got a lot to hide, so they locked the doors. You said my 'agro demeanor' reminded you of school. Your letter reminded me of school too, when the teacher would say, 'because Russell's been naughty, the whole class has to stay behind'.
I'd never knowingly keep a workingman from his dinner, it's unacceptable and I do owe you an apology for being lairy.
So Jo, get in touch, I owe you an apology and I'd like to take you for a hot paella to make up for the one that went cold – though you could say that was actually the fault of the shady shysters who nicked the wedge and locked you out, I'd rather err on the side of caution. When I make a mistake I like to apolgise and put it right. Hopefully your bosses will do the same to the people of Britain.

The bit that got me was:

"If I needed negative publicity (and, believe me, that's all talking publicly about inequality can ever get you)"

Bollocks does talking about inequality give someone negative publicity. Inanely blithering on about it while pretending to be 'one of the downtrodden' in a crass attempt to keep yourself in the news when you have a new book out however...

It’s not like these are monocrystalline turbine blades or microprocessors – these are wads of cotton that women jam up their chuffs so they don’t leave a mark on the sofa. It’s not as bad as Venezuela, where you can’t even find bumwipe but it’s close.

Labour don't get it do they? Dopey bitch on the BBC wanked on about single mum's with 2 kids blah blah blah.

It's NOT the job of the state to fund the breeding habits of single women. If the slags can't afford kids, don't have them. Get a fucking job.

Also, the men who spunk up these slappers need to pay for them, stop their bennies if they're on them and stick them on the street, I don't fucking care.

Don't have kids if you can't fucking pay. How hard is that to work out?

Same with housing. Most of us in a full time job can't afford to live in London so why should some unemployed Somali slapper think she's entitled to a 4 bedroom house fully funded?

Labour really are mad.

You do your utmost to present your useless sick self as a compassionate human who cares for the plight of the misfortunate, the persecuted, the victims of conflicts when in fact you are the most sick psychopathic hypocrite fucking idiot I have ever come across in my entire life. You are nothing more than a piece of shit who once cornered by someone of vastly superior intelligence and intellectual faculties you commence verbal attacks against that individuals family. All who know me on this forum also know that I have NEVER directed verbal abuse against members of ones family, as you have done on numerous occasions in a bastardy cowardly fashion. I give you my word of honour that I shall attend your funeral, old dogs like me are fighters and struggle on, coward bastards engulfed with hatred against the greatest nation on earth usually expire in no time. Good riddance, your gravestone should say, to a FUCKING PSYCHOPATH.

Quote from: Mr Ecks
Corbyn is shite regardless of his IQ. He is a brazen admirer of socialist tyranny and murder, from soviet mass butchers to Venezuelan thieves and wasters. He is an anti-semite and bum chums with every islamist death group going. He would return not only the fatuous waste and failure of nationalised industries but also sign up to every anti-human, anti-science, anti-production pile of eco-freak horse-shit he could find. He would commit every act of treason possible from handing over the Falklands and Gibraltar to returning the Elgin Marbles. Anything to hurt this country in the name of socialist evil. Also being a well-off middle-class leftist prick, like all his kind he hates the white working class and would accelerate the already existing programme to make the British a despised minority in what used to be their own land. His first act on getting the job was to call for exactly that at some bullshit leftist gathering. He surrounds himself with tinpot dictatorial vermin who–amongst many other examples–think it is their business to use the power of the scummy state to stop people eating meat. And of course he has Stalinist toe-rag Seamus Milne trying to help him peddle the lies.

It would be interesting to see figures for “quantity of bonds available to buy” both now and 5 years ago. I think they would not support your assertion.

Which is irrelevant: QE has happened and the goals are still relevant so assuming a static analysis is appropriate makes no sense at all

Are you saying then that your 3rd point was irrelevant? That it matters not a jot if there are many or few bonds left to buy.

Richard Murphy says:
September 6 2016 at 2:56 pm
I would not have said it if it was not relevant

Mike Whim says:

So are you saying that there is a shortage of EZ bonds to buy compared to the availability 5 years ago?

Starbucks is the coffee shop for people who hate coffee.

The only reason to go there is if you’re an adult with the palate of a toddler and/or a fatty kidding yourself that inhaling 3000 sugary calories is just “a cup of coffee”. And no wonder. Their coffee – sans all the syrup and cream – tastes like burnt dysentry.

For a simple cup of black, unsweetened coffee while you’re on the road, McDonalds is hard to beat.

Clooney responding to Trump talking of a Hollywood elite:

Here’s the thing: I grew up in Kentucky. I sold insurance door-to-door. I sold ladies’ shoes. I worked at an all-night liquor store. I would buy suits that were too big and too long and cut the bottom of the pants off to make ties so I’d have a tie to go on job interviews. I grew up understanding what it was like to not have health insurance for eight years. So this idea that I’m somehow the “Hollywood elite” and this guy who takes a shit in a gold toilet is somehow the man of the people is laughable. . .

"I just look at it and I laugh when I see him say 'Hollywood elite,'" he said. "Hollywood elite? I don’t have a star on Hollywood Boulevard, Donald Trump has a star on Hollywood Boulevard! Fuck you!"

'I defer to no one in my admiration for Mr Cumberbatch’s work. His Sherlock Holmes is probably the seventh greatest we have had, after Basil Rathbone, Jeremy Brett, Michael Caine, Robert Downey Jr, Will Ferrell and Gonzo from the Muppets. But if you take money from a car company you don’t get to go on the protest. Sorry. That’s like murdering your wife and then weepily taking part in the Crimewatch re-enaction.'

Just discovered this one

Interviewer to Don Henley:  "Do you regret writing the lines  "So I called up the captain / 'Please bring me my wine' / He said, 'We haven't had that spirit here since 1969'" because wines are fermented while spirits are distilled"

Henley "Thanks for the tutorial and, no, you're not the first to bring this to my attention — and you're not the first to completely misinterpret the lyric and miss the metaphor. Believe me, I've consumed enough alcoholic beverages in my time to know how they are made and what the proper nomenclature is. But that line in the song has little or nothing to do with alcoholic beverages. It's a sociopolitical statement.

Interviewer to Don Henley:  "Do you regret writing the lines  "So I called up the captain / 'Please bring me my wine' / He said, 'We haven't had that spirit here since 1969'" because wines are fermented while spirits are distilled"

Henley "Thanks for the tutorial and, no, you're not the first to bring this to my attention — and you're not the first to completely misinterpret the lyric and miss the metaphor. Believe me, I've consumed enough alcoholic beverages in my time to know how they are made and what the proper nomenclature is.

Ouch! When your climate change proposals end up with Greta Thunberg taking the piss out of you, you know you have screwed up.  happy002

Quote from: Greta to John Kerry
"50% of the carbon reductions needed to get to net zero will come from technologies that have not yet been invented"

Great news! I spoke to Harry Potter and he said he will team up with Gandalf, Sherlock Holmes & The Avengers and get started right away!

Quote from: Nick Dixon
First, it is true that the scene is not in any way funny. It is not even close to funny. If funny was a holiday destination, Shrill wouldn’t even manage to get in the taxi to the airport. In fact it would lose its passport, then sit alone crying in a heap of clothes, before defecating on itself and passing out. And I am being generous.

On a site discussing sending explicit photos online ....


"I think it's Darwin's way of clumping specific groups together. Say you have the intellect of a mop and have to rely on a base, cave man, level of social interaction. When you receive a positive response from the opposite sex having snet a dic pic as an icebreaker, it's likely they also have the air headedness of a mop bucket. For them, a match made in heaven, for everyone else just a long line of asbo kids and queues outside the Jobcentre to observe as we go about our day"
