So British!

Here's the first thing you can read in you go in The Independant website.



For me, that's the very best of England: Reading the summary I really can't figure what this article is about!

I know that's politics but i don't feel the whole article is just a big medley attempting to synthesise a thousands of informations which all deny each other making a subject that could've been clear completely opaque.

I wanted to capture the entire page but there were some pictures of poor Palestinian children covered in blood with titles like Welcome to Hell: the unending misery of Gaza :-/

I really wonder how would Israel manage to go on making us believe they only are wishful thinking victims exercising their right to self-defense when they are falling on and slaughtering poor civilians? Honestly...

One thing's for sure, every people over there are victims of the Western countries being to coward to act upon the mess they created. It's easier to let both sides getting their hands covered in blood and coming all peace-wanting than actually doing something useful and taking strong impartial actions.

Seann William Scott

That guy is exactly like Andy Roddick.

There is something so hot, so sexy, so exciting that makes me wants to eat him like a bowl of raspberries with chantilly.

That something is flaws. He is not that kind of perfectly shaped and face build bloke who's never had to anyhting to look good. He's not that kind of guys who look perfect even when they are throwing up their guts after a night of excesses.

I just love eveything about him! ^^

Mans Zelmerlöw

Guess what? That's Swedish...obviously! :p

My my!

I have a fan! Oh my God, I have a fan!

I just thought only people I knew were coming to read that blog but obviously people I don't know also come here ^^

No matter how cynical you enjoy being, it's always heartwarming to know people are interested in what you do. So a big THANK YOU! to everyone who is coming here.

And the biggest one is going to Céline! :D

Can anything be any cuter?

QI on Xmas in the royal family

When will France finally have the amazing freedom of speech and fun on tely?

Can you picture such a thing with Sarkozy as a main topic and people talk about him in such a way?

For the French and people who might not know QI, two things:

-It usually goes on air after “the river”. The river is 21h00 where everything that goes on telly is not censored anymore. For example, an episode of Brothers and Sisters showing Kevin and Scotty kissing would be cut in the afternoon but full after 21h00 because we consider the kids are now in bed.
You can now hear words like shit, bloody, arseholes…but all the Fuck related word are the only ones that remain censored. So when Alan Davis says: “She has a bip!” You know what it means ^^

-Another one related to the game itself. When Stephen Fry asks a question, the others have to come up with some responds. They get a point if it’s right, don’t lose anything if it’s wrong and keep guessing. BUT they lose FIVE points if they give an obvious answer. We know it because at that time, the answer appears on the screen with sounds and lights. Very Jean-Michael Jarre ^^
For example, at one point in the show Fry asks who invented champagne and Davis answers The French. At that point, “the French” appears on the screen with all the brouhaha for, of course, champagne was invented by the English despite a 19^th century legend made in France.
