Out of everyone in the entire world, I would think that the dead are the people who would mind jokes about them the least.

Yeah, I don't think it's the dead people that you should worry about offending. Not that I think this thread is offensive or anything, it's just that seems like a kinda stupid thing to say :/
My favourite thing from that day was a response I saw online. "Al-Qaeda says Britain is now trembling with fear?" and then a photo of London utterly flattened in WWII. "Are you taking the piss? The Germans destroyed a damn sight more than a couple of bloody trains and they couldn't break us, what hope do you useless wankstains have?"
Sums up the spirit of my nation beautifully![]()
there was a picture here
It's the Fat Controller Sir Topham Hatt himself.
It does indeed. I certainly know no Londoners who were quaking with fear and well frankly you of all people know Paul, that I was due to have been on the Liverpool Street train that got hit because I was meant to be going to a job interview that day, thankfully the interview got postponed the day before the blasts due to my interviewer taking ill. I'm quite grateful that they did get sick and postpone my interview because you know, being killed or maimed by a bomb blast would really have ruined my day. week or even maybe my month or year.
That'd definitely be something of a nuisance. Especially for the job interview, which you would probably have had to miss.
Would have made for a pretty awesome story though.
