Psychotic Breakdown Double-edge Axe

Time pressure

My fourth year primary school teacher Mrs Bainbridge, at every opportunity, told us "more haste, less speed". She eventually left to become one of the first female priests in the country. Thus, sod it. Move at your own speed. You can rev it up but don't go faster than you feel safe. I wonder how much it pays, being a female priest...

Saw the Oasis calendar in Woolies yesterday, and it's bloody typical. The frontispiece is a photo of the band standing still but cracking up. The Arsetwat is pointing out of the picture and guffawing. The message is clear; not only does Liam not give a toss about the fans, he's laughing at them.

Tinfoil, see, the radiation can't get through, that's how you know it's safe to eat, she can't poison uz now......

Wow, I really loathed Oasis.

"Frontispiece"? How very Elizabethan of me.

It's good to loathe Oasis.

And "frontispiece" is a much-neglected word - I think we need to bring it back...

Thank you for the votes of confidence. What other words should we bring back? I've been trying to re-invent "ague" (as in "excuse my poor humours, I am suffering from a mild touch of the ague") but it just gets you looked at.
