Hey DD!
Where's this Beer Tent dive then?
It was opening thismorning wasn't it?

May I have an mhCHUD please? Served in a nice new bag

*hands over an olympic surprise donut to DD- five mini-donuts all interlocked iced in the appropriate colours, a cinnamon donut to croz, and an mhCHUD to Joe, in a bag (which will go online shortly, graphics programs permitting*

Eat and enjoy everyone!

Thanks Joanna!
I love honey doughnuts.

I've a problem which RA & I have been discussing - and it is women's clothes. We all know how much a lot of women love having their clothes noticed, and how embarrased/angry they get when either at a party someone is wearing the same thing as them, or worst of all, someone doesn't notice their clothes and comment on them.

So, you'd think the best bet would be to take notice of what the lass is wearing, and then say something appropriate.

But that's where the trouble arises - what if the lass is wearing a t-shirt or top with a witty and funny comment on the front? That in itself wouldn't seem to be a problem, but it is - they always put the joke across the woman's breasts, and when you read the joke, you appear to be staring at the woman's breasts - the lass gets angry, feels insulted, and you get slapped for doing nothing but trying to observe what they're wearing. If a woman doesn't want people to read jokes etc. that are across her chest, why wear clothes that have 'em there? Why not simply tip-ex the offending message out?

Men have been given a bad name for only staring at a woman's bust, when the obvious cause of this is women wearing clothes that force men to. If they want to have snazzy logos etc on their clothes, put them on sunglasses!

Perhaps the ladies that wear those sort of T-shirts enjoy slapping fellas across the chops

That's it. I think you have the answer, Croz.
The lases wear clothes like that so that they can claim that men only look at their breasts - it's all one gigantic conspiracy.
Who love going clothes shopping? - women.
Who love buying boring clothes magazines? - women.
Who love writing boring clothes magazines? - women.
Who get blamed for forcing women to look like absurd sticks? - men.

Well, we know whose fault it all is, and we're not gonna take it no more

Hmm - nothing like a little lively discussion.

I suppose it is a bit late to add banning suggestive slogens on womens clothing to the election manifesto, would've looked good up with banning nappy advers.

That's true... a pity...

For more information on the nappy situation, see:

OK Beer Tent Election Night Party is here http://www.h2g2.com/F38516?thread=76933

Thanks DD - you not going to order any doughnuts?

You forgetting who my Vice Prez colleague is.

Ah, there's doughnuts ready and waiting.

Yeah one in every drawer

Hopefully not my sock drawer ;o)

In a bag! Have a look at the logo now...

I'd say it's a vast improvement on something that was great in the first place.

*finishes champagne doughnut and heads back to the beer tent*

You can now see it from the main H2G2 Waterworks & Beach page (ie - this one!)

*attatches a note to the sign* We're all eagerly awaiting the election results at the beer tent. Pop in and have a drink and a doughnut http://www.h2g2.com/F38516?thread=76933

And I'll just wait here for my next honey doughnut.
