Rant
1) Gemma was only a year older, a 16 year old and a 15 year old is not the same as sexual assault on an adult and child, implying anything else is a disservice to victims of that.
2) I *think* The fraud she was convicted of was for claiming compensation falsely. And if it wasn't, how many people have lied to get someone into bed? They didn't even "Sexual Contact" (on the Jeremy Kyle scale).
3) This Jessica person is all over the TV and gossip papers, gaining much attention and money.
4) The papers are portraying an autistic teenager with transgender/sexual-identity issues, as a sexual predator and fraudster.

I'm not saying pretending to be someone else is right, but it's hardly worth vilifying someone on the front page of national papers. LGBT campaigners must be gutted about how this is being treated by the media.

One dull thread deserves another.
My lavatory wall at home is an external one and I've a frightful condensation/mould problem. What can I do to counter this, please, you cunts? I have tried deleting my account and killing myself, but to no avail.

Alt: Picture yourself in a boat on a river, with tangerine trees and marmalade skies. Got that? Good. Now picture me, doing your mum, up the arse. In front of the rest of your family. On Christmas Day. You want to join in, don’t you? You disgusting cunt.

Shitty private schools
My missus works at a private school where it cost something like £15,000 per year for a child to attend.

Last week the colour copier in the infants was disabled by management because "they are making too many colour copies". This is shitty because the little kids don't use textbooks so the teachers need to make them handouts etc. and when you're learning about the basics (see Spot's ball - the ball is red!), then colour really helps.

The thing I don't get is that the management is basically saying that they're spending too much money on their pupil's education, which is kind of the point of a school. If I was a hard-nosed businessman it makes perfect sense: there are too few schools compared to the number of applicants they get each year so they can abuse their position as much as they like.

As far as I can tell, the parents know nothing.

Is it like this in other private schools? And how best to get a message out to the parents anonymously?

Alt Q: I'm reading the "Red Mars" series right now and loving it, what else would I like?

EDIT: This isn't the first time they've implemented some new rule which makes teaching the kids harder and just makes them more money.

Happy Wednesday you fuckers!
I'm back in Sydney, the tropical storm around southern Queensland didn't prevent us getting home. We had BBQ prawns and Snapper for tea last night.

We have a BBQ every summer for all our friends. I often make a Bacon Explosion, but this year I'm not going to as I never get to eat them. Instead I will wait until I'm having a small BBQ for a limited number of people. When did you last have a BBQ and how much fun was it?

This place looks like it's been pretty rubbish for the last two and a half weeks while me and Chompy have been away. Are you looking forward to me getting back next week?

Crikey!
Just as I was approaching my junction off the M6, I saw a little blue car veer sharply out of the fast lane across traffic. My first reaction was they'd almost missed the junction and were going for it dangerously. Then I saw them plough into the wall along the hard shoulder, two cars in front of me.

Last accident you saw?

Sexuality and the Equal Opportunities Form
Seems to be petering out down below, so let's have a fresh question.

Filling in an application form the other day, I was told I also had to complete an equal opportunities form. They wanted to know my sex, my nationality, my religion (or lack thereof), whether I had any disabilities, and my sexuality. And I had to say I was surprised: alongside the expected categories
Heterosexual
Homosexual
Bisexual
Prefer not to say
They had a box for "Other: please specify"

What the hell could "other" be? I had a chat with the missus about this, and she told me that some people prefer to call themselves "pansexual", "demisexual", "omnisexual" or "asexual," and other daft alternatives.

Q: What the fuck do those even mean?
AltQ: Who the fuck came up with them?
AltAltQ: Make your own up.
