I'm... puzzled. Who's behind this ad? The Copyranter post doesn't say. What incentive could the government have (surely they get more tax revenue if couples aren't married)?

@suiterkin: what will all the "young ladies of Europe" wear on their heads these people need to know!!

@stacyinbean: yes, but odd.

If you google "Strathmore Rose Tiara" the first result is an eye-opener. I never knew these people existed.

@famagloriaque: if he wasn't on drugs he was waaayy high on life. It happened too quickly for me to feel threatened, I was mostly just suprised. And also annoyed that my tshirt now had mud all over it.

@famagloriaque: a guy once came straight out of crowd of festival-goers, covered head-to-toe in fresh mud, yelled, rubbed his face between my boobs and ran off again into the crowd. I was left with a giant circle of mud on my tshirt and a very bemused boyfriend.

@yaylo: AND I get a rabbit! the cuteness, it's overwhelming, damn you new-fangled interweb.

In Ancient Rome, Melania had her slaves poison her cousin because some noble and clever patrician praised her cousin's stuffed sparrows and not hers.

Go Betty!

@DexterHaven: their excuse/reason for sacking him is the video above; he was only warned and suspended for one game for his remarks about Sian Massey.

Save the cheerleader!

Congrats to everyone!

@WildStrawberry: the constant partying is wearing. I don't agree with you about the token shy character though. In series 3 and 4, there was a reasonable sample of characters who weren't the popular, outgoing ones: JJ, Emily, Pandora, and Thomas (in contrast to Effy, Katie, and Cook).

@lexluber: then you need to mount a campaign to ensure TV producers know about it:)

@WildStrawberry: I'm confused. I didn't say it was exactly what being a teenager was like (for me): less studying, for one thing.

@lexluber: cheaper, but less revenue potential for them. Also, there is a perception that US audiences are turned off by non-US accents.

So, MTV won't be optioning The Inbetweeners anytime soon either?

@WildStrawberry: did you have to have sex to get into parties when you were a teenager?

If they don't end up at a bunga-bunga party with Silvio Berlusconi there is no justice.

@wesker1989: what's the 'smear' part of it?
