Ha I'm Riki Gervais and you'll never work in this town again.
To quote Rik Mayall.
Now whose wearing the sticky pants?
The ASDA of satire.
"Thoughtcrime was not a thing that could be concealed forever. You might dodge successfully for a while, even for years, but sooner or later they were bound to get you." Which is exactly what happened to Winston Smith. His rebellion was not one that was foolish and too outspoken. He silently tried to defeat the Party for his personal happiness, and in the end it cost him everything he had fought for, and his love for Julia. He had learned to love Big Brother, which was his ultimate fear when trying to live a life of individuality. The Party had defeated him.
1984

Joel, I've met you, and you definitely aren't Ricky Gervais. For one thing you haven't got a Reading accent.

How do you know it was me?
I could be a multiple shared avatar?

But at least if she was fit she'd be watchable.
No, you're right, it's sexist.

Having been there a few times, I don't think there is. It's a sort of satellite town place, where the roots aren't very deep, so no real identity has developed. One of the reasons it made a good setting for 'The Office' I suppose.

I dunno. I'd hope not, to be honest!
