I cannot understand this, from the Libertarian Alliance.
It appears to be something to do with a plump young lady who was photographed at Aintree.
It says:
Matters like this are important up here in the Tundra
It might be important in the Tundra, matey, but out here on the featureless steppes of Redneckshire it is, frankly, meaningless.
The terseness and concision of the article suggests that there is much to be read between the lines but I’m damned if I can find it.
Who exactly (if anybody) is the flabby floozy; what relevance (if any) does she have to horse racing, and what relevance (if any) does horse racing have to libertarianism?
I’m afraid that today’s Comprehensibility Award has to go to the Daily Telegraph. Well played, that man.
I’m the Alliance’s Director of Northern Affairs. So, living here, I write about them sometimes. That was all, really.
If there’s no more than the usual amount of State-collectivism going on up here, then I’ll write about the Racing happening at Aintree down the road, and maybe the people who show up at it.
Thanks for the Jeff Randall link: it was actually broken this morning for some time.
Fair enough. Who the hell is she, then?
She’s a “WAG”. But actually turning out not to be quite the usual dimwitted spendthift kind.
Oh dearie me.
Thing is, OM, that where I come from a WAG is a mathematical term, meaning a first-order approximation, or ‘Wild Ass Guess’, as opposed to the second-order ROM (‘Rough Order of Magnitude’).
What the term means now I rather hesitate to guess.
She’s a nice little Irish-Liverpudlian girl, the wife of someone called “Wayne Rooney”, who plays something called “Foot Ball” (I believe) and she’s about three-quarters of the size you’d expect from photos.
“WAG”, I am advised by my Alliance-Head-Office-media-relations Staff, means “Wives and Girlfriends”, and refers primarily to the female assistants and night-carers of persons called “Foot Ballists”, who are predominantly male.
We here think this one is OK, though. She comes across on the Wireless Tele Vision as having a brain.
[...] is worth a good read, also the comments, which at time of posting made 82 pages in Word. Thanks to LUC , the grand old fellow, for re-finding the link which was broken for most of [...]
She’s not a proper Scouser unless she was at school with at least one of the Beatles. I may not know much sociology, but I do know that.
Oh come on, you can be more charitable than that! What about the millions of the poor buggers born later? 73
Howdy, gang, no oats and alalfa sowed today although I could just get away with it here, sunny and just dry enough for my little Fordson tractor before a nice Spring snowfall at the weekend, as I am lumbered with God-damn business doings and hopeless paperwork struggles. I suppose if that gal in L2 today has a troll in her unit, then it just means she’ll anyway have a “hoose,” if and when la Rooney tosses her into the bin for some other bint? Ah, “luv,” ain’t it a tissue of the old fecal exudate?
DD: sorry, doesn’t count. Rules are rules.
Emmett: the term ‘troll in her unit’ is a remarkably fine one; let it never be said that American literary endeavour rests upon its laurels.
Hi Emmett, when yer gonna write for us Libs then, OK? You just say, man. 73
I missed the troll bit – like that one, can I quote you unattributed then? DD
PS actually that one makes her one money doing TV and media stuff, not like the others. Not the best way I’d agree, but at least she works.
D2, OK if I send you the occasional link to my peerless crapola, or post same as a comment link?
A “troll in her unit” was first used in my hearing by Ms Donna Watts in Mpls, MN, in the Fall of 1987, in connection with a friend’s trip to Planned Parenthood in that place….
/Unit/, as in “how’s your unit?” has its antecedents in the San Francisco underground Zap Comix of 1968 ca.
Also, LUC, you’re the man…how do I open this WordPress sonofaseacook so as specifcally to edit/alter MY favo(u)rite links there in the right front sidebar? I mean the listing of other web logs so as to get some of you lot up, I already have some earlier things hidden under the God-damned boar tit useless “links and patties” button….
Thank you, Sir!
