No wonder people are leaving. The colonies are more British than Britain  :)

When we came here that was true.  Now Canada is more like a snapshot of the whole  British Empire pre WWII



The most radical revolutionary will become a conservative the day after the revolution.

I didn't read the entire thing, too hard on the eyes / brain.

But is it possible this guy is a recent immigrant to the U.K. and his English is not up to par. 

I'm just trying to imagine myself writing French, I would spell words as I think they're spelled not how they actually are. Take fore example the word Yes in French "oui", if I didn't know it's spelled like that, that's not how I would spell it. I assume that would go for a lot of you that are not French educated. Correct?


No, as it's all in teenage slang.  Unfortunately this is how some kids are actually writing their exam papers these days...


Choosing a car based on reliability is like choosing a wife based solely because she is punctual. There is more to it than that...

Old tidbit from the Empire. At British clubs and establishments across the Empire you'd see signs prohbiting locals and lpets from entering. Hence the famous Dogs and Africans/Indians/Arabs not allowed signage.

If that's the case, I hope the teachers / profs are giving them a zero on their exam papers.

I really hate this type of slang speak. It's really annoying.
