I like the last line.  I work with folks who've made money illegally most if not all of their lives.  Even if they didn't have criminal records preventing them from ever getting a decent job, kinda hard to argue it's better to live off a minimum wage job than to deal drugs with social security as a buffer.  One pays the bills.  One doesn't.
it is well known that PMS Elle is evil.

The replies are interesting.

Especially 'Philip Inuhoff'
"We ruined the country when we passed women's suffrage.
The fact of the matter is, women used to take care of the the elderly and the children. It was hard work. When women got the vote, they began to vote for things that would make their lives more luxurious. Entitlements got passed to help take care of the elderly, kids and infirm, so that women could have more free time. Men still worked 16 hour days but women were now free to work, if they wanted to, start activist groups, or just sit around all day brushing their hair. Once the apathy set in, we needed self help industry, anti depression, industry, diet, Oprah, Vodka, etc, etc.. Abuse, divorce, killer taxes, .... It's true... Read Molyneux. "

Yes!!!  All  you women should go back where you belong raising the kids and taking care of the oldies.  Yes that would cure everything we would return to the golden age :P

Agreed this poor bloke will feel better after another beer or two don't worry

I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

We were talking about slightly different things. Look at the context.
