The Guardian.

For G2 and Comment, mainly. I've normally read the news on Unlimited by the time I sit down with the paper.

If you were a paper Haver, it would be you.

Since you're not, I'll pledge my allegiance to The Guardian. All I need for a day's worth of knowledge.

The Metro, its free and fairly factual. And i can more or less skim read one on the train to college.

I very rarely buy a paper, but if I do it's The Guardian.

I have a look at their website most days, their gamesblog is good.

I don't read any daily paper, but I want to get into the Guardian as for it's media shit. I think that only comes out on a certain day?

So, I like, totally tried to give you some positive rep, with the message "Let's have dinner", but it like, so totally didn't work.

Let's have dinner.

Oh crap, I accidentally deleted my original post. The delete button needs more warning signs.

As for dinner, if it's got prawns, I'm there :awesome:.

Oh man, my original post just came back from the dead. Shit guys, what do I do?!

The one and only Daily Mail.

Although I do also like the Times.

I don't buy a paper daily but when I do it's the Guardian. Easily the best of the lot. Their new extended sports coverage is great too.

Well, here's the website: http://media.guardian.co.uk/

It's on a certain day, yes. Not sure which though! I'll check.

My folks read the good ol' Independent. Which is a little too...independent for my liking. But if I am in a financial rut and need a tenner broken up on the way to work I often stop by the ol' Shell Garage and pick myself up a copy.

However I must admit my tastes have fallen a couple of hundred rungs because I recently am becoming abit partial to the sodding Sport. I mean I don't read it - because its utter bollocks, but the pictures are awesome. Nothing like a midday jerk at work. I lie abit about the reading because the sex stories are always filled with hilarity.

Used to read the Metro cause, well, near on 2 hours of bus journey per day how could I not? Although by the end of the second year I ended up mostly flicking through then reading the star sign (dont believe in it, just read it cause). Now as I walk to college don't read one on a regular basis.

The Mail? For real?

For right wing agenda: Mein Kampf < Daily Mail
For good newstelling: Sport > Mail.

Yeah, for real. I rarely buy newspapers, propably a couple of times each year. The last newspaper I bought was The Independent and that was because at WHSmiths if I bought the Independent, I would save £1 on my magazine and this was about 3-4 months ago.

I started on The Sun, then moved up to the Daily Mail. I'll buy Star if it has Big Brother stories in it.

The one good thing about that is that it takes sales away from Heat magazine :happy:

My family gets The Herald on weekdays and get the Telegraph on weekends. I only ever read the sport pages though. Graham Spiers sport's diary is really good, as was Andrew Murrays Wimbledon diary.

i read all the papers when im at work, the guardian is indeed the most interesting read, but i do enjoy readoing sex tips from sun and mirror, let the halarity ensue
I find them good to read as well, isn't it amazing how whenever someone has sex with someone [Their mothers friend, their step-sister etc] it's always the best they've ever had.

Anything I can get my hands on at work. This will either be the Daily Mail, The Sun or Daily Mirror think there's usually some more there but can't remember right now!

If I buy anything, the Guardian. If I don't care about the news, the Mirror.

I hate the Mail/Express too much for words.

Monopolyman

If I do read the paper, I just read the local papers I get through the post which reports stuff like some guy down the road won several medals in the transplant games.

I also occasionally get The Daily Mail, albiet very occasionally.

If the Guardian is middle class then what's upper class?

Haden
21-09-2005, 09:38 PM
The Daily Telegraph and the Spectator. The Spectator used to have a tagline like "unashameably elitest." :bow: Lovely stuff. The Gaurdian is a place for the middle classes to whine and pontificate, having said that I may buy it now its in a nice neat 3/4 format.

Does ANYONE here care if David Beckham buys a hat or if whats-her-face gets plastered at some party?

You've never noticed?

EDIT: Education time children. Here's a picture of me in negative funness. The picture is negative for two reasons.
1] I changed it and saved it without making a copy of the original [Which looked nothing special and I could easily revert it in Picture it]
2] I fucking love the way my eyes look, more EEVIL.
