Things you'd like to say, but can't

[ColinJ]

I would like to say this to the Halloween-inspired teenagers who were screaming in front of my house just now... "I say, I would really rather that you didn't drop-kick my front door before running off cackling. It is somewhat annoying and moronic!"

You did not seen it, you saw it.

 

[Chief Broom]

Can i say anything here without getting any flak? OK then Bruce Springsteen is crap and 'Born in the USA' is a stupid song with stupid lyrics, i couldnt care less where you were born...
Back packing is just bikes with a poor luggage system.
Road bikes should be called race/sport/dropbar bikes. Hybrid bikes should be called road bikes.
Ah thats better! so nice that i wont get any bricks thrown at me...i wont will i?

 

[Moon bunny]

And Dutch bikes should be called roadsters.

Shut up you noisy brainless twit. I couldn’t care less about your life, what you saw on telly last night or your tasteless Halloween party.

'Born in the USA' is a stupid song with stupid lyrics, i couldnt care less where you were born...

It isn't a song about how great the USA is, it is actually about how the USA sent thousands of young men to fight a stupid war in a far-off land, and didn't help the traumatised survivors of that conflict when they got home.

That doesn't sound stupid to me!

The only problem is that it is far too easy for people to miss that and think that it is just a jingoistic anthem.

Yup - right on thread topic

people who think a song is wonderful for reasons that clearly show they have not listened to the lyrics
or know what they mean

any other example?

^^^ that's saved me a few minutes. Spot on, @ColinJ

 

[Ratchet Cat]

Remixed songs with a drum machine beat and high pitched warbling over the top are utterly talentless rubbish. Oh wait, I did say that.

David Cameron said 'The Eton Rifles' was one of his favourite songs!
