Darth Walrus posted:Doesn't bimbo/himbo imply that you're dumb but sexy? Not sure I'd apply the label to either of those two, but you do you. I think it works as a descriptor for someone who has no actualy intrinsic valuable qualities but purely through socially constructed inertia, has social value. Like I don't want to shag peston but his image has value because of brand notoriety, even if he himself cannot construct any actual thoughts that anybody with a brain cell would want to listen to. Really the worst part is that it is offensive to actual dim beefcakes who might also be perfecty nice people.

In Italian a bimbo is a male baby, and by extension a manbaby (like those two). I blame the tabloids for giving it misogynistic overtones.

I said this before the other day but we, as a British people, really must stop using "nonce" literally. The comedy overtones are just too distracting when describing from one of the worst crimes. I guess in an isle that made pedophillia an institution, a funny word to describe someone who did it evolved as a coping mechanism. Calling Andrew or whoever a nonce is just too funny for what he did. It's mocking, like kink shaming some kind of fetishist or whatever. The man is a literal [alleged] pedophile. jiggerypokery fucked around with this message at 20:19 on Jan 12, 2022 |

I dunno was she 17 when she was in England? Who knows what the age of consent is on a private paedo island, you'd imagine they'd set it quite low.

Also, Little St James may be a "private island" but it is not a nation-state, it's a constituent part of the US Virgin Islands, which are so named because the age of consent there is 18. It's like saying you can impose your own age of consent laws within the grounds of Balmoral, (which Andrew probably also believes)

Blimey Wikipedia says they're named for saint Ursula who took 11,000 virgins with her as a gift to her soon to be husband. Blimey Epstein's got some competition. Alternatively some useless monk may have got his Latin wrong and actually she was just 11 years old instead of the virgin horde.

As with most things in constitutional law, it's all very theoretical & very complicated, basically. Luckily it'll never become important, because no copper will ever try to nick 'er maj.

Isn't there some precedent from when the king did a bunch of war crimes and then got impeached and tried and then his head fell off repeatedly, or did everyone just pretend that didn't happen?
