It is hard, being the poor kid, but it wasn’t too bad. A few brats gave me shit, but mostly my experience of being the scholarship kid at an elite private school (Australia, not UK) was one of acceptance and I really enjoyed it. True, every now and again I’d be reminded that some kids were filthy rich (skiing in the…

And that is what is needed for true integration. It doesn’t happen overnight.

This is important to note. Division in the UK is less about race than it is about class.

Maybe I’m feeling overly optimistic but these opportunities will definitely open up some lucrative career choices for these kids.

Do note my American friends that ‘diverse’ in the context of British elite schools is less about race and more about income. Race wise these top schools are often crammed full of Chinese, Indian and Nigerian kids.

Plus I would bet you anything that the surprise-knocked-up daughters of the wealthy and powerful will still be able to be quietly whisked away to have their safe clean abortions.

Afraid any pain I could inflict can’t come close to the pain and suffering these women in healthcare deserts are experiencing.

1) Yes, when I am considering a relaxing weekend away from home, the first place I think of is the home where two people were chopped to bits with an axe. And let me at that bedroom where the female victim was found!!! I can’t wait to lay my head down on the pillow a mere feet from where her brains were spilled out…

It’s not a big deal. A black bar in a photo just means you have 72 hours to find and kill all of your blood relatives or Lizzie rises from the grave to drag you, screaming, into Hell.

Half the joy of watching Premier League is listening to the announcers miserably fail at pronouncing foreign names.

People in the UK don’t really hate the French. British people think of the French as English Canadians do French Canadians - yeah, they’re weird and speak French and stuff, but we go there for cheap cigarettes and wine and if anyone attacks them (like the November attacks), we’ve got their backs and will sing La…

Oh man, if that’s the case, sign me up for a Martha shopping expedition.

That could be her way of saying, “Let me buy you a nice dress so you can get rid of that awful other thing you were wearing.”

HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS PLACE???

In my field, everyone temps for at least three years after they complete their masters degree. In my case, I worked for eight months a year, was laid off for four, and then would get picked up for another contract just as the money would run out (and just before prostitution would start to look like a valid option.)

I made more waitressing in bars than teaching in colleges. Everyone thinks this is hilarious - especially students who thought they were my "boss" because "we are paying YOU so much."

You forgot to put “job creators” in quotes.

You’re correct about everything except the artisinal mayonnaise because obviously we make our own.

I’m sorry, but you can’t pay a millenial anything decent, because they’ll just spend it on artisinal mayonnaise, vinyl copies of 90s albums, rainbow flag bandannas, and marihuana cigarettes.
