I Told You They Wuz Organised

Posted by on February 23 at 10:11 AM

I have to give credit to where credit is due, and at this very moment credit is due to a band of very professional English bank robbers who managed deprive the mighty Bank of England of at least £25m. Not a single soul was harmed during the daring operation (a boy, however, was “absolutely traumatised” by the unexpected encounter with the armed and organised thieves). As the Clash used to sing back in the day: “Daddy was a bank robber/He never hurt nobody/He just loved to live that way/And he loved to take your money.”

Charles, how do you reconcile a boy being traumatized by a hostage experience with the assertion that "Not a single soul was harmed"?

whaaaah I was a hostage whaaaaah

i will have nothing to do with nonsense like emotional harm. i'm a marxist, a sensualist. the only harm i recognize is physical harm.
