I am actually finding all this coalition talk etc very interesting. But that might just be me.

Did anyone see Adam Boulton and Alastiar Campbell's bust up on Sky News? Hilarious.

Heres my prediction.

The two most overused words in the press for the next 3 years regarding the country are going to be...

F.U.B.A.R.
and
S.N.A.F.U.

Yeah, I saw it. Good old Tory Sky. The professionalism of their presenters is legendary.

It's interesting, but at the same time, the idea of Cameron as our PM is abhorrent. It just goes to show the influence of the insidious Daily Mail, that people were actually prepared to vote for this man.

F.U.B.A.R.
Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition. ( used a lot in Tango and Cash )

S.N.A.F.U.
Situation Normal All Fucked Up ( old army slang)

I thought both were well known enough not to need an explanation. Soz.

heard the term 's.n.a.f.u.' bandied about but wasn't sure what it meant. The other I haven't heard. never watched Tango & Cash.

EVERYONE must watch Tango and Cash. Its up there with Con Air and The Rock as pure fun in movies.

TANGO & CASH is one film I have not seen in years, so perhaps repeat viewing is long overdue.

As regards F.U.B.A.R, it is also mentioned briefly in SAVING PRIVATE RYAN when the squad is walking through the Normandy fields during the start of their rescue mission.
