So-called "children" were jumping up and down and making an unholy racket in my omnibus as it proceeded through the West of London. They were on their way to some disgraceful, degenerate "carnival." What a sad reflection of today, when in my childhood years we were content to derive fun from one grey sock with holes for many Christmases to come.

I've half a mind to literally put my foot through society and send the so-called PC Brigade the bill. Let's have an end to the do-gooders, liberals etc.

Thanks to sandal-wearing Tony Blair and his cronies, you can now press just one button on the internet and a sex offender will turn up at your house within seconds. And yet still honest taxpayers burn to death in buildings while the fire brigade takes four hours to get through the crowds at Red Ken's Pink Parade.

When I was young, one would show one's appreciation for a well-formed heel on a young lady by removing one's cap and nodding respectfully. Nowadays this is met with foul-mouthed abuse. We should of listened to Powell.

A glimpse of stocking was considered perfectly shocking but these days, as so-called rapper Charlotte Church would say, it's all gravy

I remember when all the gays were on the stage, making us laugh, like that nice Graham Norton. Now even society itself has a penis in its bottom.

30 years ago a child kicked a ball in the street. today that same child literally kicks society into the face of a pensioner

While litter remains on the streets youths literally put pensioners into the few bins that remain

what do you say to a child who has been unable to age for 30 years because of foreigners having sex on benefits which they use to make a bomb aimed at please, thank you and mushy peas?

At childrens birthday parties society is literally cut up and eaten while absent parents laugh

The rot started with balls, really. When I was a child we were happy with a whip and a spinning top. These days they want a ball one minute and a Bentley the next, but you can't even whip your servants. Can't even whip your servants, but still they won't make it illegal to abduct and murder little children and bury them in the woods.

My elderly mother was left lying around a hospital untreated for three decades, and her rigid corpse ended up being used as a hospital bed for an asylum seeker with a cut to the thumb. Meanwhile the spin merchants in government are compiling the new year honours' list by copying names wholesale from the Sex Offenders Register. What on earth is going on?

Our parents fought and died in a war, and now Gordon Brown won't even give us a referendum on whether Britain should join the Middle East.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 26 August 2008 11:55 (fifteen years ago) link

When you went on holiday you used to be able to ask your neighbours to check that the kids were doing okay.

In Brown's Britain they're more likely to kill them and turn their mutilated corpses into an 'art' exhibition -- and all at the taxpayer's expense.

Roy Whiting and Ian Huntley are sitting in five star "prison cell" bragging about their crimes on Face-book. Meanwhile, the Police can't even be bothered to find Milly Dowler. SORT IT OUT.

So, Gordon Brown and his merry band of socialists say it is not on for a grown man to vote for Paul Simon in Pazz and Jopp? I am a grown man I can vote for who I want! This is yet another example of socialism and political correctness killing our most proud traditions.

So, Gordon Brown and his rag tag bag of Eurocrats and Trots think it is inappropriate for me to talk about my love of corn dogs and hoagies on the internet when I should be doing my boring office job? Well I think they should eat a MASSIVE PLATE OF RIBS, perhaps then they would know what it is like in the real world.

Some of the messages on this thread are funny!

But it is curious that everyone - in about 160 posts on such a fractious board - seems happy to agree entirely with the tone of the thread, and produce more sarcastic parodies of laments for a lost past.

Actually, there are probably some things that were indeed better in the past, and some that were worse. Some things in the world today, one would not want to lose. Some, perhaps one would be glad to see the back of.

In a lot of ways, life for us - the expanded middle classes of the developed world - is probably as good or easy as life has ever been for anyone ever. Yet it is also true, I believe, that the planet Earth, as a physical environment and ecological system, has never been in a worse shape, at least not since it was covered in rivers of lava several million years ago. Some things do get worse, dangerously and tragically worse.

When children were made to join the army, they knew the meaning of discipline. Nowadays every child has a gun.

When oh when will Left-wing subversives like Pinko Pinefox be dealt with by our bankrupt Government instead of being nauseatingly allowed to broadcast his nigglingly nitpicking propaganda about global warming which as we all know is a fallacy funded by disgusting Loony Lefties like George Michael. If the world is getting warmer why have we had THREE STINKING SUMMERS IN A ROW?

We would be basking in 95 degree temperatures if the Tories had been elected in 2005.

once, there was at least one summer a year. now, who knows?

I blame the absence of Summer on the pernicious influence of porno princess and open advocate of homosexuality seventies soul songstress Donna Summer.

Once upon a time you could go outside and hear birds singing and the wind blowing. If you listened carefully, you could even hear the fizz and spit of the Sun as it warmed and replenished the Earth's natural resources.

Go outdoors nowadays and all you can hear is the tearing of society's moral fabric as it is ripped to bits by knife crime.

time was that footballers like other gallant sportsmen played for the love of the game and the pride of the local town. now as the local town is literally hacked to death by frenzied youths and thrown off bridges onto passing motorists, footballers literally play for money as they kick the balls directly at pensioners faces in the terraces - mimicked on the streets of our towns as youths literally pack footballs with ballbearings and explode them in the faces of pensioners opening their front doors hoping vainly for respite not shrapnel.

this is what we have replaced society with

I went to the local post office the other day and they'd closed it to put a mosque there. You're treated like a second-class citizen if you want to buy a first-class stamp, but you can buy a bomb on every street corner.

This fascist/communist* New Labour government is literally murdering motorists in their sleep with their fuel tax, speed cameras and 30mph speed limit in built-up areas. Are we to believe that the lives of a few schoolchildren should come before the right of hard working motorists to drive wherever and however they choose? Brown's politically correct gauleiters are hellbent in driving us from the safety of our cars and herding us into the seething hellholes of public transport, to rub shoulders with stinking alcoholics, knife-wielding single mothers and black people. This is a holocaust for motorists.

Families now spend their Sunday lunchtimes sitting in isolated crawlspaces gobbling up roast dinners with their hands - the Fathers' pendulous GM-mutated breasts wobbling around in gravy while Mother stuffs Duracell batteries up the chicken's arses instead of giblets. Hell in a handcart I tell ya.
