Whereas I accept that it's not their fault the economy isn't where it should be.

 

I just don't accept that the smug f***ers are actually concerned about it, or doing anything significant to mitigate the problems.

I am hoping that Kanye West has been misquoted or this was a joke but if its true then his arrogance is astounding :rolleyes:

No, he really is that massive a prick.

 

 

Wow okay, now even the fact he is dating Kim Kardashian isn't enough for me to respect him.

I've come to the conclusion that ultra anything is typically bad. Aside from ultra sexy or tasty, but I prefer very myself.

Ultra sexy = unattainable. See? Still bad!

He is that big of a prick, but that was a satirical article. The quote about him being the first black rapper made me question its truth. Sadly, I had to get that far to question it.

Okay good to know :)

 

So he didn't actually say those things right?

Wow so I've been watching the memorial service in South Africa and its been very significant and spectacular. There are loads of distinguished and important people who are attending that include 4 USA former presidents and of course Barack Obama who flew in this morning. The UK also has several prime ministers present including David Cameron and Tony Blair.

 

The traffic has been a nightmare with all foreign dignitaries being escorted on the highways and its raining heavily. But rain is considered a good omen in African culture so all the traffic congestion is a small price to pay for a fitting and appropriate memorial service for a great man, Nelson Mandela :)

 

I am looking forward to Obama's speech, he has been very positively received by the crowds at the stadium

If you're interested I believe he'll be looking for a job soon. Perhaps you could convince him to stay?

We would love to have him live in South Africa but he is too important and needed in the USA at the moment.

Okay I don't mean to keep going on about this but Obamas speech was touching and inspirational. He really is a excellent orator :)

I simply cannot respect a man that either cannot or will not wear a simple dinner jacket correctly.

To be honest that's the first time I have heard that before. How is he wearing the dinner jacket incorrectly?

I don't understand. i just googled images of him, and leaving aside the ****ing stupid american flag badge I don't see a problem.

What platitudes did Obama say ?

I see.

 

The internet informs me that he persistently wears a notched lapel jacket, and flap pockets. He also periodically wears a white bow tie for reasons I can't fathom.

 

Since he keeps doing it, and since he has his clothes picked out for him by some sort of hellish team of professionals I think it probably is intended to give him a businesslike and less polished air. I don't see how it reflects poorly on his dress sense.

What you saying makes a lot of sense, good post Walsie :)

No platitudes Malc, just conviction and sincerity. He made many good points, I strongly recommend you watch his speech. Its not long and is absolutely compelling. You should hear how the crowd loves him. 8)

Yes, conviction and sincerity from a politician..  I'll catch his speech now, but I doubt it'll be that interesting - mention something about Mandela's greatness, his example and some other fluffy stuff about hope, I'm guessing.

Can't really get along with a chap that needs a team of professionals to tell him how to dress incorrectly. Sorry guys, let's not fall out xx

 

You misunderstand us, firstly we won't fall out over a debate. This is what we enjoy and cherish

 

The point is I don't think you can tell us what's wrong with his dress code and that's why you are reluctant to tell us the reason. You don't have one :wowey:

 

And there is nothing wrong with admitting you are wrong, I do all the time. It can be quite liberating :biggrin:
