It's a soon-to-be national sport, originating in and around the council estates of Great Britain. Lord Coe has lobbied for it to be introduced in the 2012 Olympics with the UK representative, Daz ov Salford, being quoted in the national press, recently, as saying, "I'm gonna be minted when it happens, as my family are gonna tax all the other competitors' cars, and they'll be well devilled."

It has already been a culture, we need a trainer for each and every activities. Let's hope, in future, we have to train our children to eat and sex with their girl or boy.

It is young people who do that sort of thing. It has been discovered that peoples brains are not fully developed until about twenty one years old (much later than previously thought) most young people therefore, are suffering from brain deficiency.

'Cos there are a lot of retards about.
No offence intended to genuinely retarded folk. This terminology is an age old insult, similar to calling someone an idiot, moron etc.
