I just think it should be plan B and not plan A.”

Sadly, Plan B is not effective when used more than a week after conception.

Excellent!… how much will they pay us to visit?

Here’s another example related to neuro-linguistic or neuro-suggestive programming: I’m not calling for him to be lashed to an operating wind-turbine blade and pelted with rotten fruit… but…

I read English at Oxford too – it was scribbled on a urinal wall at a service station… 🙂
(but I did my technology postgrad in London).

Apart from lack of clear thinking and immature writing style, did he not even learn what a metaphor is?

Hate speech and incitement to violence must never be tolerated.

Hello, my name is James. I don’t read the scientific papers (not my job), I don’t have a science degree (just an arts degree), yet I compulsively write hateful opinion pieces on sciences I know nothing about, and on those papers I don’t read.

It is refreshing to see him candidly admit he doesn’t have any idea what he is talking about. I say we give him a little pat on the back for his courage in that admission.

Would he not find that chilling??
