I knew he was alcoholic and he'd had more wives than Henry the 8th, but I didn't know he's beaten women..

On a completely unrelated note: people in the UK watch The Simpsons now! I think Mr Burns makes his "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" reference in this episode. 8) :roll:

Jordan shouldn't have come second, she should have come first :x

"That's minging" she says every day. And her kid that's clearly not blind because of her alcohol and drug consumptions while pregnant :roll: And of course, she refused to find out who the real father is because she respected Dwight so much.

And lest not forget her being pregnant on the net in the name of "sciene" or the time Garath Gates denied losing his virginity to her like she claimed.

What a great human she is :lol:

Some people, for a hobby on the main, are anti-monarchy. Most important politics goes on behind closed doors and I think she is a great head of state for this country and others.
