[Misc] Happy 'You know what' Everyone

[Grombleton]

I meant what I typed, thank you.

The fact you intended it just makes you sound like a cock.

 

[A1X]

has anyone ever actually attempted to stop people from celebrating this?

Of course not. But as we know, the sort of people who like to believe they have been don't tend to be on particularly friendly terms with things like "the truth".

That looks more like a large iguana than a dragon.

That's a horse mate

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Why wouldn’t you be allowed to wish someone a happy St. George’s day?

Ahem.

Now that the loony lefties, all the BBC luvvies, promoters of homosexuality and PC brigade have taken over, you're not allowed to call a spade a spade anymore, and especially celebrate a bit of good old English patriotism, England's only national born saint. In fact it is practically illegal to call yourself English.

Do keep up

It's rather odd insofar as I've mentioned my nationality on many occasions and not once been arrested.

Must be the way people go about it.

So you have a clearer understanding

its a line from a stewart lee stand up

edit: i see somebody already said

I’m aspiring to sound like you

How original.

So, the club celebrate this, but not the day to celebrate England? Strange, as it’s just happened the once, I’ll put it down as a mistake.

Why would it be a mistake? It's not as if St George's Day actually means anything.

Depends on your view point surely ? On my-give-a-shit meter St George's Day probably comes in around a 6. Ramadan a big fat zero.

I get that, as Ramadan doesn't impact me - I was meaning more that Ramadan is a religious event that is observed by a great many people, whereas St George's Day....doesn't really have any real significance in terms of history, religion etc. It's the same as any other 'theme' day in my opinion.

Today is Shakespeare's birthday.

Why not celebrate someone who was English and actually existed ? Teach kids some real history.

St George's Day ? What the **** is that all about anyway ? What are we celebrating ?

St Alban perhaps - the first English martyr? Thomas a'Becket?

Is there a touch of irony here, am I being whooshed or have i missed something?

England's only national born saint? A Roman soldier of Greek descent born in Turkey, if he existed at all.......

At least Patrick, David and Andrew had some sort of connection with their respective countries!

No real significance in terms of history, religion etc.

I think you’ll find St. George means something to a lot more people than Ramadan does in this country.

The club obviously found it significant enough to post about it last year.
