This is a question Broken Promises

Thebigfella tugs our coat and says: Are you a LibDem minister, a cheating partner, or maybe you have an annoying friend you can't be bothered with? Tell us of promises you've broken, or if you've been on the receiving end.

Jedward broke a promise to sick children!!
I was helping run a crèche in the summer at a conference for families of children with a degenerative illness. It was at a hotel where Jedward were staying in between concerts.
When they walked past the room where we were, the kids saw them and went MAD!

Their manager told us that the lads 'might' pop over in a bit to say hello and have photos taken. The kids were high as kites with excitement, until it became obvious that Jedward weren't coming. Packing up their equipment into the van under the window of the room where we were watching and then driving off was a bit of a clue.

So, Jedward, shame on yous for breaking your (admittedly shaky) promise to a load of poorly children.

Is this actually a bad thing?

Hmm. Not actually Jedward breaking the promise.
Shame on their Manager more like.

Gives me yet another reason to hate the wretched little twats
Pair of spiky haired ass clowns that they are.

Probably did the kiids a favour
I'd rather grow up talking about Jedward being twats than saying "Woo they came to see me at créche

I 'might' come round to your view to see that as a broken promise
then again I 'might' not

(and damn you for making me stand up for those ejits)

The kids heard it as a promise though, as kids do.
Plus, it was said in front of them and they agreed so yeah, they could have honoured it.

I had the lucky/unlucky experience of meeting
Jedward just last week. They were very lovely, especially to the 10 yr old kid that was there with us, complete with a Jedward hair-do. Made a right fuss of him and he was made up!
Sadly, their manager was a complete and utter massive cunt who I could have punched in the face for being rude, dismissive, condescending and a general out and out twat.
As much as I don't like the pair of weirdos, they seemed genuine enough when it came to making the little ones day.

Yup, it was the manager who said they'd come over 'if they had time later'
which was obviously to get them off the hook there and then.

The kids heard it as a promise though. Kids're like that. There's no 'might' with kids.

See..
massive cunt. Letting kids down like that. I'm sorry to hear that.

You shouldn't be exposing kids to whores.
Jeremy and Edward, or whatever the fuck they are called, are a shitty product made by Cowell and Co. to get some money from people for garbage.
Let the kids meet someone decent, not some rent boys employed to scam people.

I am thinking more along the lines of this:

Or about being "... off the artistic roll call, forever...".
