Oh dear. Oh dear oh dear oh dear.

There's a perfect community to post this to, but, well. In a discussion on price rises on stamps, a few of us Brits explain the superiority of selling stamps as "1st" and "2nd" insttead of by value for letters. In contrast to other countries which sell them only by value, so you need to buy more when the prices go up. A few random comments down the line, and a response I get is:

here, the first class stamps have the amount on the stamp, it doesn't just say first class.

Why, yes, we know, that is indeed the whole topic of the conversation.

I would put this comment on mock_the_stupid but, well, it was on mock_the_stupid. So I share it here, just because.

From a theweaselking entry here, click on a commenter who says she lives in York, where I've been, to find she used to be a WendyHouse regular; in one of her rare open posts, we have the amusing trainspotting reference poll, questions listed because, well, they amuse me. It's a little long though...
