The Eye is an esteemed organ and a British gem! I have been reading it since I was 16 or so and it hasn't done me any harm! :read: :eddy:

Harm is such a relative term in this context... :eddy: :levi: :twisted:

I love Private Eye, its a fucking brilliant magazine. I especially love it when some snotty old cunt tries to sue them for libel and loses. :cheers:

:tea:
Then they for sudden joy did weep,
And I for sorrow sung,
That such a king should play bo-peep,
And go the fools among.
Prithee, nuncle, keep a schoolmaster that can teach
thy fool to lie: I would fain learn to lie.

Brilliant crossword too. Hard but amusing
Outside the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the center of all infinity—the boundless daemon sultan Azathoth, whose name no lips dare speak aloud, and who gnaws hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time and space amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes.

Code: Select all

// Replaces with spaces the braces in cases where braces in places cause stasis 
   $str = str_replace(array("\{","\}")," ",$str);

I love Street of Shame, which exposes the breathtaking hypocrisy of the British print media and Pseud's Corner.

Private Eye went downhill after they axed the Barry McKenzie cartoon for getting a little bit raunchy in the early 70's. :coffee:
Although it may look like a forum, this site is actually a crowd-sourced science project modelling the slow but inexorable heat death of the universe.

The Elisabeth Sladen cartoon in the issue previous to this was actually quite poignant..,

Mine comes every fortnight, the postman has been arrested for blathering on our hall carpet.
“I wish no harm to any human being, but I, as one man, am going to exercise my freedom of speech. No human being on the face of the earth, no government is going to take from me my right to speak, my right to protest against wrong, my right to do everything that is for the benefit of mankind. I am not here, then, as the accused; I am here as the accuser of capitalism dripping with blood from head to foot.”

John Maclean (Scottish socialist) speech from the Dock 1918.
