@Marionville is right To expand a little Crapula is the Latin word for hangover, hence "Feeling like crap" Crap meaning excretia as you say come from Thomas Crapper inventor of the ball cock flush toilet in 1880, he is often confused with Sir Thomas Harrington the inventor of the water Closet in the court of Elizabeth the first. The name Crapper is a variant on Cropper meaning a gatherer of crops or a mower of wheat fields.

He ran the election on a platform of "What do you want a Crook or a Fascist" and won by a landslide and by the end of his second term had quashed all his indictable offenses. Trumps seems to be fear mongering his way to "What do you want a Crook or a socialist" as his platform for 2020.

How "Racist" Changed Meaning - The Atlantic

LenHazell53 comments on Jul 24, 2019:

You first have to state what you mean by "race" Growing up in the UK when I was a boy the most racially abused people were the Irish. Now I have heard American people time and again telling me the Irish are NOT a race, but by our definition they are. To us race is defines by your cultural ancestry, skin colour and physical features have nothing to do with it, those define only your ethnicity, which may not even be racially based at all. In the TV series Porridge in the 70's there featured a Glaswegian Scott named McClagen played by brilliant scots actor Tony Osoba. Tony Osoba's father was West Indian, but all of the racial prejudice thrown at McClagen was for his being a Scott which was universally accepted as his race, though his darker skin was only referenced jokingly as being Black watch Tartan. One may have been born in England, but speak with an accent and hold views highly conforming to to those of an Irish born person from your own ancestry, this makes you nationality English but racially and culturally you are Irish regardless of ethnic features. Like wise west Indian people, African people, Asian people (which in the UK only means from the Indian sub Continent it baffles us when the Americans say Asian and mean Chinese, Tai, or Korean, who to us are far eastern.) In the UK there has long been a struggle against racism against Scots and the Welsh, both proud races who the Americans especially insist in a very racist manner are English at worst British at best, president Bush (the 2nd one) famously asking opera singer Charlotte Maria Church where she came from and when being told she came from Wales asking which state of England that was in, was in Wales considered a highly racist remark, albeit an amusing one indicative of his idiocy.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, though it took it's title from a short book by Ian Flemming about an actual British racing car of the 1910s and 20s it actually a totally original story by Roald Dahl, who at the time was working for Cubbie Broccoli as a script doctor for the Bond movies and was told to "Do something with this shit". (The whole story of the book is covered in the title sequence of the film) Broccoli had bought the rights to all of Flemming's works up to that point a few years before on the condition that they all would be filmed, and so found himself lumbered with the children's book about a race car which was contractually obligated to turn in to a full length feature. It was not in fact Dahl's first piece of writing for children he had published Charlie and the chocolate factory 4 years before, but as he admitted in later lifehe had sneaked so much subversive content in to CATCF CCBB was an exorcise in "just how much can I get away with, and not get caught." He admitted the frame story is about drug culture Toot Sweets are hallucinogenics, Potts takes his name from marijuana slang (though there is an historical figure called Caractacus) Grandpa pots does go in to his shed to get stoned, hence his claims to be "Off to Africa". The magic car that takes them all on wonderful "trips" some times really "high" A woman called Truly Scrumptious, who once married to the lead would become Truly Potts was another reference to "the munchies" Suffered by those coming down from a high. Many of the drug reference were so obvious they were rewritten and used as self parodies in various "Family guy" episodes most notably Me Ol bamboo reemerging as "A Bag O'Weed" in season 7 episode 12 "420" The Child Catcher and the land of Vulgaria where children are illegal were threats Dahl used on his own children to make them behave brought to life and this is before you get in to child abduction, sadism, Paedophilia, torture, wife murder and utterly rampant racism born of the post war mentality.

This is not news. Anyone familiar with operation paper clip knows that the cream of Nazi scientists were divided up between the USA and USSR as spoils of war. The makers of the V1 and V2 rockets, the fathers of the atomic bomb and those who would contribute to the design and building of stealth jet fighters and bombers were all former Nazis. Like wise those sociologists and political scientists behind the founding of the EEC/Common market were also former Nazis, seen as less important they were left in Europe for the use of the French, British and Dutch. The whole situation was parodied in Leonard Wibberley's novel "Mouse on the Moon" with "rocket scientists" being traded and defecting back and forth between the Americans, Russians and British, with "Germans" commanding a higher price than any other type. The morally contentious matter, especially those concerning medical science, of separating the the discoveries from the discoverer and their politics has dogged the ethics of the academic mind for generations. However unlike in medicine and the arts cold hard economics and pragmatics have held sway in the post war Capitalist economies when it came to matters of Physics and warfare.

The level of secrecy was so high that they passed in to myth and most believed they never existed buit were just a propaganda exercise, until in the early 2000's a scalawag bunker was found under an earth mound at the end of a suburban garden in Gloucester complete with a full working radio set, arms and bomb making equipment and documentation for Scalawag 254, a carpenter (reserved occupation) who had just died in his 90's and was still maintaining his post.

[news.yahoo.com] Who agrees with Trump?

LenHazell53 comments on Jul 16, 2019:

The You Tube commentator Sargon of Akkad released a video a few days ago in a misguided attempt to draw attention to the fact that if you take Trumps tweet and deconstruct it word by word, sentence by sentence then it can be read as not racist, which is true. However there is more to a sentence than the words and letters that make it up. There is nuance, connotation, cultural reference and context. The use of the "phrase go back home" or "Go back where you came from" especially in such context is hugely racist, and has a long history in bigotry and prejudice that cannot be denied, not matter how harmless the phrase might be in other circumstance. I recall having a conversation with my father once about how he had been pushed past by a man in a queue, how the man had been insistent on being served first. However my father insisted on referring to the rude individual as a black man, an ignorant black B---ard and when I asked what his being black had to do with his rudeness my father very angry and snapped why could he not call the man black when he was? I asked him to think about if the role was reversed and the the same man had turned on my father and said "Oh excuse me you white man"? Again Dad said that was typical of a black b--ger being sarcastic, and when asked why he said he has no need to call me a white man it's obvious I'm white. Finally he stopped and thought about it and said well it was obvious he was black too, but he was very rude. I don't deny he was rude, all people of all races can be rude and are, the point was being rude AND black some how was worse, because of an assumed superiority by the white man and this required clarification. I dug a bit further and it seems anyone of colour and oddly Irish people needed this kind of clarification, but not other english speaking races who are primarily white. My father is only a few years older than Trump and this idea seems ingrained at an almost instinctive level in that generation, to them racism seems inherent. Most people make an effort to combat this, but some, though not KKK level racist, feel annoyed at being obliged to modify their thinking to the point of being furious and insulted that their "normal" thinking is somehow now offensive. It is *possible* Trump actual does not think he was being racist, however on the other hand I call Bull shit on this, he knows exactly what he is doing and saying and is relying on playing to the worst in people to secure the support of like minded people.

The mention of the Maxwell family in the article is chilling, for a time in the UK Maxwell (known colloquially in the UK as the bouncing Czech) was second only to Murdoch in media power. His supposed "death" and actual disappearance is still a matter of great controversy and the information he took with him is a matter of lamentation for his victims. Therefore Epstein's revelations if he choses to capitalize on them could cause repercussions globally, so much is now creeping toward the light of public scrutiny that only a matter of years ago would have been seen as the wildest of conspiracy theories that the fabric of society is about to be shaken from its roots to its highest branches. I see only two outcomes, a gross miscarriage of justice and another escape and exile for the monster, or his death, by convenient accident, assassination or suicide.

My late writing partner once described to me the dangers of revisionist history as a blight on the collective memory of the world. The fact that there are people who against all reason and evidence claim the holocaust never happed place themselves in the historical cannon, and as the events move in to evermore distant history, out of living memory then all that remain are the testimonies of the witnesses and historians among who will be the deniers seeding doubt for the remainder of time. For every thousand historians who tell th truth, there is and always will be one who says it was all a lie, diluting the facts. We all know Princess Diana died in he tunnel in Paris in 1997, but there are those who claim it was faked, she lived on elsewhere, in 100 years time reports from 1997 and 2017 won't seem that far apart, and some of those guys made a pretty good case and of course there is no proof she did not fake it.... etc, etc etc. Fake doubt is the cancer of history, and it must be a great comfort to the modern Fascist to think he is being unjustly blamed for a holocaust that never happened in the war years, propagate by people who just have it in for his ideology and want to silence his "truth".

Personally I prefer the Corman/Price version

Why is this not in the news

Bias based on expediency.

If you don't watch out, I'll get loquacious as well.

I would disagree with "the gift of the gab" being included here as a synonym since the expression refers to the persuasive quality of loquacity, rather than the quantity of words used.

Even assuming his "reason" are sincere, why does he simply not take his wife with him when he is being interviewed? Better yet not do one on one interviews? I call Bullshit, he is at best frightened of abuse allegations coming at a later date (true or false) or cannot control "little Robert" enough to stop him jumping up and saying hello when alone with a woman

He has also forced the British Ambassador to resign after a leaked private email from the Ambassador to a friend was taken offense at by the Pussy Grabber in chief, as the ambassador hinted at the fact his orange-ness was a less than perfect President. Trump immediately disinvited him from all diplomatic functions and claimed he would never speak to the ambassador again so the British government needed to fire him immediately and replace him with some one more "respectful" forcing Sir Kim Darroch to metaphorically fall on his sword. Just the time to be alienating your allies
