Snappy Put-Down

By Alex

Old post, I forget the topic. Not that it ever really matters.

UK at that time had invaded and enslaved 70 countries. My grandpa who was barely a teenager at the time spent a couple of nights in Churchill’s prison for listening to a German broadcast while Churchill was waging a war for freedom of speech.

Ali Kazmi, Rawalpindi, Pakistan

Well perhaps your grandfather shouldn’t have been a traitor against “the forces of democracy and liberalism”, as Nehru himself called the British-Indian armies fighting against Nazi and Japanese totalitarianism, eh?

[hubertgrove]

That’s YOU told Ali KAZMI. Answer THAT one, QUISLING. Yeah.

    Thank Gawd we live in times when listening to the radio isn’t considered an act of treachery.

    The worst you can do in our enlightened times is put on Chris Moyles, and that’s not a crime, merely an act of fucking horrendous stupidity.

    It’s the form to have a look back at examples of congitive dissonance in HYS posters, as and when they appear on SYB. Allow me to be the first to examine hubertgrove:

    Was China right to execute drug smuggling Briton?

    This man trafficked in death for money – and he paid the legal price for his crime. The BBC must stop pimping this storry as if the Chinese committed some great human rights atrocity whereas in reality they only applied the law they have in place to protect the poor and vulnerable in their own society.

    Can a deal between China and the US work?

    What we must never forget is that China is still a repressive dictatorship ruled by a small number of aged warlords. The US, for all its faults, is still the freest and most liberal society in the world. Yes, even considering the invastion of Iraq and Afghanistan!

    Senator Edward Kennedy: Your comments

    A man of greatness has died. . …. He earnt his position in America, contrary to inheritance. Shame on critics who judge with no shadow of comparable achievement. While they divested, he rose through the shackles to excellence.

    Rod

    What drivel. Kennedy’s entire career shows that the principle of aristocratic inheritance is alive and well in America long after it died out in the UK.

    UH-OH. Ten minutes till Wapner. We’re definitely locked in this box with no TV. This is definitely not my underwear. I buy my underwear from K-Mart. 300 Oak Street.

    And just for good measure:

    Will the Tory gamble succeed?

    The Tories can’t be trusted, they have more faces than the town hall clock! A party that deprives sick and disabled people of benefits, who have less chance than others to get a job, are totally cruel, callous and heartless! How can taking £25 a week off people possibly give them a better life?

    [ChrisNEuk196]

    Because now a lot of lazy fakers will have to get a job instead of leeching off the workers’ taxes. That’s right, I said ‘lazy fakers’.

    Oh, he went there.

    Oh, he went there.

    I genuinely lolled out loud there. Is “lazy faker” some kind of obscene Cockney rhyming slang I’m unaware of?

    That’s right, I said ‘lazy fakers’.

    Ah, bless. A Richard Littlejohn wannabe, telling it like it is.

    Was there ever an HYS on that hacker with Asperger’s who was to be extradited to the US? I can imagine [hubertgrove]’s response…

    This man trafficked in secrets for fun – and he paid the legal price for his crime. The BBC must stop pimping this storry as if the USA committed some great human rights atrocity whereas in reality they only applied the law they have in place to protect the poor and vulnerable in their own society.

    Does this count as a valid spot of the “If you don’t like it… etc” ?

    back off benn…we don’t need to be told what & should do with our food…our choice…or do you want to run the supermarkets, and tell us that way what we should be eating…still you won’t be in a job much longer…and i was a labour voter…not now…if you don’t like,move…go install your thoughts somewhere else…

    For a “patriotic” radio listener, hateful hubert really doesn’t like the BBC much.

    Is anybody else stunned by the way the BBC is reporting the Afghan conflict?
    They only – and I mean, only – run stories that lead with the latest death.

    Stunned I say! Stunned! Don’t they know there’s a war on?

    What a spewtastic spiny lobster’s spam butterfly.

  10. on 06 Jan 2010 at 1:36 pm   Randolph

    I’m stunned by you, so we established that they won’t report your death Hubert, are you just jealous? What kind of news coverage is more appropriate? Do you want to know how it’s going out there? Well in summary, our troops are trying their best but are still dying how about that as a starting point? You hairy hamsters hyman

    Hubertgrove should listen to CNN rather than the BBC. They often run stories about soldiers in Afghanistan rescuing fluffy kittens from a trees.

  12. on 06 Jan 2010 at 7:57 pm   Any Rand will do

    I’m not sure how seriously we should take an HYSer who can’t afford a single sock puppet to recommend his posts, although he did hit the jackpot with

    DEBATE:
    What do you think of Obama’s Nobel Prize?
    SENT:
    09-Oct-2009 10:29
    COMMENT:
    I don’t think the Swedish Academy quite realise what they have done. By awarding the Prize to Obama now, before he has actually done any ‘peacemaking’ at all, it has shown itself to be racist and condescending – and it will galvanise the US right who will, quite justifiably, be incensed by this short-sighted, highly political interfence in US domestic politics.

    Megan from Cheshire was always a sniffy retard, but here she bangs out a belter…

    My daughter’s on her 2nd ’snow day’ due to teachers unable to get in to school.

    Perhaps teachers should go to the nearest school if they cannot reach the one at which they work, in an attempt to provide at least some cover and support for students.

    Megan, Cheshire UK

    Rather than attempt to write a humourous postscript, I’d just encourage you to picture Megan’s suggestion in action. I’ve been giggling for 10 mins now.

    When I was at school in 1963 we all went to school through 3 miles of 6 foot snow drifts. Nowadays 1-cm of snow and everything grinds to to halt.

    All this poor girl wants to do is play tennis. Leave her alone. Obviously there are no Palestinian Tennis players because they just arent good enough. Maybe if they focused on playing tennis instead of terrorism then they might make it big in the tennis world. Israel has every right to defend itself as it sees fit, and if that means killing a few Palestinians then so be it.

    The BBC blog profile for hubertgrove is worth looking at for yet more startling examples of cognitive dissonance:

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/profile/?userid=7835481

    Like:

    President Obama was given the Award by a group of middle-age Swedish liberals because he is a charming, intelligent black man who has risen to the top of a white society that most Swedes think was trying to hold him down. In giving him this prize, the ’softest’ of all the Nobels, the Swedes were celebrating Sidney Poitier in ‘To Sir With Love’, Martin Luther King, the black power salute at the Mexico Olympics, Diana Ross, Bill Cosby in ‘I Spy’, the Watts Riots and Jimi Hendrix. All the black iconography that appeared on the TV and move screens of 60s and 70s Sweden and must have seemed so exotic, so exciting.

    As such, it may well be one of the most racist and condescending gestures Mr. Obama has ever had to endure.

    and

    Let’s stop all this fatuous nationalist and multiculturalist nonsense…

    Yes, it’s a goldmine of bigotry, idiocy, hypocrisy and good old-fashioned blind hatred. For me, the gem of the entire thread comes from Nick B. What’s your opinion on the matter, Nick B?

    Palestinians don’t play tennis because women have to wear burkas and men have to wear guns. Children have to wear suicide vests, fake when they are young, real when they are older. Any dissent from this is punishable by death.

    Words cannot express how stupid this woman is, and how tired I am of comments on the internet.
