Freedom Of Speech - In Code

[Theland]

Like the underground resistance in World War 2, I think it might be safer for me to discuss TROP in a code.
Let's say I call them Aldi Shoppers, or Aldis for short.
Now I can protest at the number of Aldi shoppers entering Europe and building their supermarkets all over the place, with huge towers from which the call goes out to grab a bargain five times a day!
Yes that's it.
I personally belong then to the born again Poundstretchers, the persecuted shoppers in the world of retail.
Ah ha! Cracked it!
Do you want to join my conspiracy in the name of free speech?

Haha! You do make me laugh, Theland ... but if it's all the same to you I prefer to cling to my freedom to speak openly.

[Theland]

Spoken like a Mason. Fortnum & Mason.

[ToraToraTora]

well you are taking the heat of PP for incomprehensibility anyway!

[ToraToraTora]

thing is though some of then prefer to grab their bargains 5 times a day in Lidl.

[Theland]

Lidl- apostates.

their Sabbath day would be Thursday then.....

I'll have to remember that one next time I am at the lodge. Brother Fortnums, I like it.

This reminds me of the Wolfenden Commission back in 1957 set up to review the law on sexual offences, specifically homosexuality and prostitution. As there were women members some delicacy had to be employed. At the first meeting there was a plate of Huntly and Palmer biscuits on the table. It was decided that homosexuals would be referred to as Huntlys and prostitutes as Palmers.

I did not make this up.

Remember “Aldi Shoppers” we’re forcefully recruited to build this country, the states, the world. Obviously the powers that were didn’t think this through properly but thought only about free labour, free forced sex, and a route to get any aggression out of their system not realising that it would bite us on the ass decades later.

On other forums I hear comments such as “ we should have picked our own damn cotton” etc..

But would we have gotten off our horses, bloated by too much food, sexual fantasies and alcohol and done the work ourselves? Hell no, we had it good.

We’ve sent people down their own mines to retrieve diamonds and precious metals risking their own lives and only paid them 50p. Is that fair? We’ve raped, pillaged and robbed, stole under the guise of “”bringing” cavemen to the new age but no respiration? Don’t make me giggle.

[Jackdaw33]

I think you misunderstand the term 'Aldi Shoppers'. The acronym TROP is a giveaway.

[Theland]

Spot on Jackdaw.

[andy-hughes]

I've got a better idea - try not being 'humorous' - as a devout Christian it doesn't suit you.


You've only got two sets of rules to obey - one is impossible - your faith, the other is extremely easy - Site Rules.


You should be able to manage the second set, most of us do, and the first set is just a matter for you, and you don't need to bother us with it.

Haha I see that M&S boxer shorts is getting knickers in a twist and sniggers in a mist mixed up again.

Sorry, you've lost me - can I have that in English please?

[Togo]

For the life of me I can't see what a Tax Refund Offset Program has got to do with me. (^_*)

Andy, I know you don't need any advice but you're wasting your time.

This is supposed to be funny.

Makes a mockery of the topic but hey, seems help is needed.

not much of a code then if you're trying desperately to be understood.

[Togo]

Yes Theland …...why would you want to have a sense of humour? Give me a laugh a minute Mullah or Imam any day. :))

Mamya - //Andy, I know you don't need any advice but you're wasting your time.

I appreciate what you say.

I have Theland pegged as a simple wind-up merchant who thinks he is hilarious.

I shall probably stop answering his posts, I don't want to poke the proverbial bear - or waste my valuable time.

[Voltage]

Come to the jokes section I'll make you laugh andy ;-)....well sort of !!
