DieselDaisy Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 A typical Sun reader has his builders bum on show; a rolled up copy of the Sun, turned automatically to the football pages, in his back jeans pocket; his tattoos on show; a flask of tea - which he drinks endlessly from. He will show up at your house looking to fix your boiler or sink and say something like, ''ohhh'' (dons gruff voice) ''it needs a part', ''I might have a missing valve for that in my van, I'll just gan an check''. He then goes out into his white van and sits there for two minutes while reading the Sun, before coming back and announcing: ''I must hav' used the valve on a previous job last week. I can get one for ya but it is gonna cost ya, mind? I mite hav' to drive up to Hexham for it'' (it is always, Hexham).You agree to the transaction.White van man then drives into a nearby field; puts on Queen's Greatest Hits (white van men always listen to Queen's Greatest Hits); eats his bacon butty while spending a hour reading The Sun. He then drives back to your house saying something to you like, ''you were really lucky. It was the last one they had in the shop''. He then fiddles on your boiler for 30 more minutes than is required - in between countless tea intervals, makes a few crashes and bangs: job done.£200 you are charged for the privilege, enough to jet him and ''wor lass'' off to Benidorm for the week.That is a typical Sun reader.Really? A Sun reader would use the word "previous"?Whoops!It was good until that point though, wasn't it? I mean I didn't put any Latin in or anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GivenToFly Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 What has the world come to when the media can't even use cheap marketing gimmick to attract a clueless uneducated audience which can then be indoctrinated into whatever money- and power-hungry media moguls want anymore? An outrage! Political correctness gone mad! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalsh327 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 It would be interesting to get Samantha Fox's opinion on it because she was one of the most famous Page 3 girls and lesbian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gracii Guns Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 its just cheeky and British. Its Carry On and Confessions of a Windowcleaner. Its Sea Side Postcards and Barbara Windsor.Of the four items you named there, which ones are really relevant to British culture in 2015? In fact, have any of those been relevant since the 1970s (maybe excluding Barbara Windsor and her acting career)? Probably not because of the people who recognised that there are more respectful national pastimes than boobs. The Sun is just catching up.

spunko12345 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Remember when the vegetarians moaned some years back that the sun would never objectify men in the same way so they started doing "The Page Seven Fella". Lasted about a fortnight lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amir Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I was exposed to boobs for years from Page 3, Maxim, FHM, etc., and I still don't get the big deal about them. Now if Page 3 had more ladies' bums I'd be up in arms about this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the darkest days before the internet, this was all you had. Well, this and the ripped up shards of a porn mag scattered in a bush.What is it with the ripped up bongo mag shards? Is that really such a thing everywhere? Always remember the first one I found was in an excavation hole where British Gas were laying new pipe (no pun intended). I treasured those tattered pieces of paper and hid them behind the bed in my gran's house for ages until she found them and threatened to call the police.
