Oh wait......Who and what exactly are the luvvies ?<br /><br />Oh wait... I found this definition of "Thesp" (which apparently is similar) here :-<br /><br />http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=luvvies<br /><br />A thesp is a fucking annoying genre of person found in university musical and drama groups. There are different degrees of thesp, all of which have the same underlying over-confidence. To spot a thesp they are generally wearing stash advertising their latest self promotion production of shite. These 'productions' are not usually for the entertainment of the masses, merely an opportunity for thesps to show you how well they can sing or twiddle their jazz hands. Thesps are loud and over-articulated and generally shit. Unlike the actresses and actors one sees on the television, your average university thesp is ugly, and compensating for their lack of good looks by being a dramatic retard. Also known as luvvies<br /><br />Good enough for me....<br /><br />Expat living in CanadaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2170981338945747646.post-44149820246659422952010-04-04T10:23:40.789+01:002010-04-04T10:23:40.789+01:00mr leg iron, how does the alcohol bypass your live...mr leg iron, how does the alcohol bypass your liver? osmosis!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2170981338945747646.post-17643905532687003452010-04-04T09:41:18.374+01:002010-04-04T09:41:18.374+01:00"I stopped watching TV a year back.

I have (never again..).<br /><br />Full to the brim with flat screen tvs announcing availability in one of those take-a-number-and-wait systems, and in between, stuffed full of propaganda - don't binge-drink, want to give up smoking?, junk food is unhealthy - eat your five a day, don't be antisocial on public transport, report flytippers, etc, etc.<br /><br />I'm sure it won't be long before these start appearing on the streets too...JuliaMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07844126589712842477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2170981338945747646.post-33874378170029460092010-04-04T04:18:39.687+01:002010-04-04T04:18:39.687+01:00It's best to enjoy at least part of the day be...<i>It's best to enjoy at least part of the day before bumping back down to reality.</i><br /><br />Is the BBC news <i>reality?</i> It seems more and more completely <i>unreal</i> to me.<br /><br />I stopped watching TV a year back. I'd got so sick of being propagandised about global warming and health and everything else that I no longer wanted to own a TV set.<br /><br />I still listen to BBC radio, but I'm always monitoring it for propaganda, and finding lots. It's just not quite so in-your-face as TV. And also I'm actually getting more and more of my news secondhand from blogs by people who have watched the news and feel that something is worth passing on.Frank Davishttp://frank-davis.livejournal.com/noreply@blogger.com
