Hate trumps all. Pleased to see that the Dutch haven't fallen for hate.

Piers Morgan - self-promoting super-twat (and, of course, colossal bell-end).

Or have we done him before ?

However, that seems to be just drawing attention to the colossal bell-end.

I'm sure if he offered to shut up for good they could raise enough cash for the BBC never to need to hold Comic Relief ever again.

I look forward to this experiment being extended into a long-term trial, and possibly with its scope expanded to include such things as Piers "Morgan" Moron¹ giving up appearing on the anbaric distacope and Piers "Morgan" Moron² not writing anything for the newspapers.

The journalist (or sub-editor) who doesn't know the definition of 'homely' and applies it to a singer in the title of this article

I think you might be being unfair - I'd associate 'homely' in the headline with 'down to earth' in the body copy, not with her liking home.

mrcharly-YHT · « **Reply #2407 on:** 25 March, 2017, 08:40:56 pm »

Homely when applied to a person has a specific meaning. Plain of face of appearance.

I very much doubt he's been mentioned on here before, what with all his self-deprecating comments and all.

Hmm, I don't think it does. Homely means cosy and comfortable. In that context of the article its basically saying she's not risque rock star material.

In British English, that is. In American English it has different meaning and calling a lady thus will get you slapped.

mrcharly-YHT · « **Reply #2411 on:** 26 March, 2017, 08:15:29 am »

According to the Oxford English dictionary, in English English, it only has meaning applied to a place or object. Applying it to a person is the American usage and is the insulting definition.

That link offers two definitions in British English: 1.1 is "simple and unpretentious," which I think fits admirably with the headline you complain about.

The example sentences make it abundantly clear that this usage is not merely of a place or surroundings. That restriction only applies to the first definition given.

This is absolutely my understanding of it. Now, shall we define 'fanny'?

It can't have escaped your attention that Elon Musk is putting rather a lot of effort into getting the hell off this planet as soon as is practical...

Surely everyone should hammer the US with carbon-taxalike trade tariffs or summat if they're daft enough to go ahead with this.

Well, he does keep on saying ...

Mr Larrington · « **Reply #2423 on:** 29 March, 2017, 11:17:48 am »

He also keeps saying "Make America Great" but he's been mis-quoted¹; what he actually keeps saying is "Make America Grate". And he's not talking about cheese-flavoured food product either.

1: Keeps happening to the poor fellow; can't think why.

Jeremy Hunt, exercising his Life Membership of this thread yet again with his appalling mismanagement of interactions with an FGM survivor.

Oh, and for the insulting 1% pay increase after gods know how many years of freeze. But the first point is the worst.
