Jacob will be along in a minute to tell us that Keir Starmer is a irate person.

..... What we do with these people, how we look after them and make society work for them will be the biggest challenge we face.

Well, so far, society has been spectacularly bad at this, sadly.

No, just hate racism, sexism and ageism. The tragedy is, that you don’t see it.

The tragedy, is that you see it where it doesn't exist.

I'm sorry that you think that a white middle aged man making fun of other white middle aged men is racism, sexism or ageism.

Try being a white old Jewish man and see how bigoted most people are.

Could someone explain how Adam suggesting he is irate person is bigoted or offensive. Apart from seeing irate person on occasional menus it’s a new expression to this old man.

Why not go the full five yards

I'm not familiar with that saying?

I always heard, I gave him, "The full nine yards". as in all I had, Like a fighter pilot whose ammo belt was nine yards long.

It’s one of the few remaining unknown references. It pre dates the First World War and first appeared in print in the US referring to a baseball game.

Officially there isn’t a true definition but I like to think it comes from the sailing ship days of the navy. There is another variant with full six yards. The six and the nine could refer to the yard arms on ships and putting sails on each would be doing it all.

You live a sheltered life.

I'm ending this thread.
It was an interesting observation @Housey210 but the thread has gone awry and I think it better for UKW and all concerned that it stops and fades into obscurity.
