I believe one should never start a sentence with "and". Will you be correcting everyones grammar? Or is this a rite of passage for the new boy?

You are new.
Quote: chipolata @ July 8 2009, 3:25 PM BSTYou are new.
Which means, 'You are new!'.

I was on the train with Elliot once, and a guy just joined in our conversation about how I could "save the world in between revising for A-levels." He asked if I could make it so England would win the World Cup, too.

Ok back to the subject of this thread!
1 Fellas got a beard? Look a bit middle eastern? Don't dig in your rucksack for sandwiches on the tube. Unless you want the carriage to yourself.
2 Feeling like you need a hug? Why not hug one of the soldiers outside Buckingham Palace? They're not allowed to move so go mad.
3 Al Quaeda are actually allowed to sell lethal bio-weapons. Providing it's from mobile hotdog standards, to tourists for 3 quid a pop. Mind you the fried onions smell nice.

We did used to have people of all kinds of races down here but then a magical pied piper came and played a joyful and beautiful tune and led them all away....
