Down with vulgarity. Surely this thread can be more sophisticated.

Sophisticated people and unsophisticated people quite like vulgarity. It is only the partially sophisticated who turn their snooty noses up at it.

It always perplexes me when unsophisticated people try to justify their shortcomings by calling the educated ones names. Perhaps a course in personal communication may overcome this "holier than thou" attitude.

Attitude is something I avoid as if it was a plague of locusts with vicious stings invading my lounge in vast numbers when I'm watching the cricket. I find it better to react to whatever is thrown my way as best as I can.

Can I Canoe You Up The River? was the title of a popular song of bygone years. The kind of song, in fact, which used to be performed on the Black & White Minstrel Show.

Poorer people are being targeted to improve global climate by being unable to pay for heating, flights, etc. Life was never fair.

That is hard to beat, especially the bit about Doon etc. However I am glad that I could add: Fares please, Widecombe Fair and trade fair, as well as Monday's child is Fair of Face.

Face of mankind is a massively multiplayer online role playing game in a persistent world. The attraction is, you will control a single character in a science fiction game world.

World of virtual reality is interesting, I daren't try to go there in case it becomes addictive. There was a radio spoof on Second Life called Second World War Life, where people were saying "I've never been happier since I gave up my existence as a well-paid executive and now work for a shilling a week in a munitions factory."

There is a way which seems right to a man. However its end is the way of death.

Death is my favourite character in Terry Pratchett's Discworld. He always speaks IN CAPITAL LETTERS.

Letters to the Editor must be concise and to the point. A short letter is very likely to be printed, and can be very powerful if you have a good point.

Point the finger at those who are doing wrong only if you have no sin - or something like that - is one of Jesus's teachings. It would make life difficult for the police, judges, juries and other upholders of the law.
