Imagine my disappointed to turn on the News and learn they were talking about some bloke from North Korea

Anyone know how to get a Champagne cork back in its bottle?

Disgusted

Comments such as these are quite despicable even if in jest.

I'm sure the families of the millions who have died from starvation agree with you.

Perhaps you four gentlemen should read the initial post and get your facts correct, the post was not aimed at "dear leader".

Right, I'll put everyone not 'in' on the joke out of their misery. 'Kim Jong Phil' refers to a previous CX manager, who was also a Star Chamber member.

Many of us among the the CX flight crew group find Liam's post hilarious.

'Bleeding hearts', political diatribers, religious nutters and thread hijackers: move on, there 's nothing to see here.

Whilst we're havin' a wee joke; Is there still a tank of piranha in the training office? - and a small tank of common goldfish next to them?
Certainly made I laugh as I thought 'How appropriate.' (Well just for a few of the trainers)

Iceman, whilst we don't share your superior level of intellect or elevated sense of self importance, WE were commenting on the REAL Kim and NOT the caricature of CX employ.
But thanks for your condescension anyway!
PS. Dart, we DO get it!

Thank goodness we have the likes of Iceman to explain life's complexities to us. I went back to the original post and, after a lot of thought and research, I eventually saw the light. Thanks Iceman - what would we four have done without you showing us the way.
(Lowest form of wit - I know)

OP wasn't!

Personally, I didn't think he was a bad guy (The CX one )

Oh my god, I have been so incredibly stupid and clearly embarrassed my self. I feel so inadequate compared to our esteemed intellectual colleague (iceman) that I feel the only course of action it to bow and request forgiveness for my inferior lack of understanding.


Please oh please forgive me iceman. Please be kind to me when we next fly together, I promise to improve my intellect.

Agree with Basil. Always found him (the CX one) approachable and resonable. Not like those that came after him or others up there.
