Originality suffered the same fate as those people who annoyed me with their snoring.

Why not slowly insert Q-tips into their noses?

You're overdoing it with all those stop-the-snoring-techniques. I just have to give Mr J a gentle push, he turns over with a grunt and voliá, no more snoring.

Maybe you could video yourself making it and post it on Youtube. Such knowledge needs to be shared. (Though I admit that non-UK forumites are going to struggle to make the noise in your fine British accent)

I snore. Mrs Urhan snores. However, Mrs Urhan has the "advantage" of being partially deaf thus being less able to hear my snoring. Just goes to show how an apparent handicap can have its uses.

So I understand.

I haven't watched it myself but a work colleague filled me in. She said something like "Shake it, niggah!" in a tone clearly meant as a joke dating back to the days of disco. Even the person she addressed the comment to seemed to take it as such but said that it would end up getting her in trouble.

So it did. I guess Endemol and Channel 4 don't believe they can take any chances since the Celeb BB incident earlier this year.

Now, if anything will kill this thread, turning it into a Big Brother thread will for sure... very clever guys!

Big Brother is the worst television programme ever. It's devoid of any merit whatsoever (unless all you're interested in is watching a load of late teen/twenty-somethings walking around in bikinis all day).

I think I may have worked out why it's popular...

I'm sure one could find an opening without killing Robert, but if not, one might have to seek altenatives. We already know dear Rob has smashed up his car in an accident, so if a strange twist of fate dealt him a bad hand, it might be construed as an accident. One can do a lot with, say, a car, a traffic intersection, a semi truck loaded with farm-fresh eggs, and a little imagination....

And how would one know what this show Brothers and Sister consists of (so one can gripe about the lousy context) without watching it?

What are you talking about? Was anything I said about snoring racist?

Here's the reason for why I was up late. (It was actually 1.40 am in Sweden) It was the last day of school. Johan finished 9th grade which means the end of compulsory school. He got great grades/marks (expr?) Out of a total of 320points he made 295, which is very good and it will take him into the study program in upper secondary school/senior highschool that he wants to attend. *proud mother*
Anyway, the student tradition is to meet by the castle in town and party. I had promised to pick him up whenever he wanted to and it turned out to be at 2.00 am.

We have a TV show where we lock 13 fame hungry, mentally unstable, misfits in a house for 3 months, film them for 24 hours a day, and make spurious accusations of racial abuse against them.

That was merely being parodied in your snoring situation.
