:The article is written to poke fun at Conservapedia and Conservapedians; the inaccuracies in innuendoes are subtle, and the aim is that they will be missed for what they are while the perpetrators snigger about their little prank and just how ignorant and gullible everybody at CP is. Scones are not battered potatoes. "Up market" establishments? Selling kebabs? Of course. How silly of me to think otherwise. I hear McDonalds now offer ''haute cuisine'', too, in their Michelin rated establishments. "Many different styles and blends... all taste remarkably similar..." "Chip sauce... closely guarded centuries old..." "Health conscious multi-cultural delights..." "Mushy pea debate..." "four of fish and finger pie"? Blatant slang sexual metaphor. "Only place in the UK where mayonnaise..." Apart from every other chip shop, that is. Chinese-Italian chippy in Pompey? Hm, call me jimmy Hill 'cos I'm growing a beard... I'd be seriously concerned about the seriousness of anybody trying to defend this article in its current state. Maybe they would also like to defend the inclusion of "cumbernauld/chanty wrassling" in the [[Wrestling]] article... [[Sir John Betjeman]] being born in the fictional town of [[Melchester]]... (and being greatly influenced bt McGonnagal, too, eh, Ulysses?) ... How about [[Gordon Bowie]]? From [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fulchester Fulchester]?... Or the wonderful article about [[Chutney Ferret]] - pity it didn't reference [http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=%22chutney+ferret%22&btnG=Search&meta=cr%3DcountryUK%7CcountryGB this]... I stand by my edit, and any further edits I might make to articles about Britain. I grew up here, I know what I'm talking about ;) [[Image:User Fox.png]] [[User:Fox|Fox]] <small>([[User talk:Fox|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Fox|contribs]])</small> 15:26, 31 May 2007 (EDT)

Jimmy Hill was famous for having a large chin and a moustache, not a beard as you state. As Jimmy Hill and his large chin are a British institution, I call foul on you my lad. ; ) [[User:Fingermouse|Fingermouse]] 15:37, 31 May 2007 (EDT)
