As much as I dislike Meghan I have never called her a bag of ****...:hee:

There was nothing hypocritical , if I called Meghan a bag of sh1t, i doubt you'd care .

Whether I cared about it is irrelevant....we are talking about your hypocrisy..but you clearly dont see it.

I have given my opinion on what he said...in fact I thought it was quite funny because he didnt mean it 'Literally'...But I did think it was an inappropriate thing to put in an article or on social media. If its going to be said its the kind of thing you would say amongst friends who actually know and get your sense of humour.
You clearly dislike him as much as JC dislikes Meghan but its OK for you to be derogatory about him by referring to faeces but not him....
Good job he didnt say that Harry should be 'hung drawn and quartered' :laugh:

So they do indeed probably like him as a work pal but they're not "besties", it's different. It may be a tough concept for you as you can't be workmates with an old lamp... so you may not quite grasp that "workmate who you chat away to every day but will never speak to again as soon as you stop working together" dynamic. That's what he's describing. When they retire they'll enjoy seeing each other once in a blue moon... but they'll make no effort for that to be regular.

Look at you still pretending to know what you are talking about

You can be best friends with someone but rarely see them.

Id say in the last 30 years they have spent more time in each other's company than any other pal they have and probably more time than with their partners due to the nature of their work.

Again totally irrelevant to how close they are, anyone who has had the same job over an extended period of time has certainly spent more time with various colleagues than with their out of work friends, and probably more than with their spouse (if you don't count time spent asleep).

You can work with someone for 8 hours a day every day for 10 years, through massive life events, know their whole life story... ... ... and still never see or hear from them again from the day you leave that job onwards.

I'll concede that it's a strange phenomenon, but it is what it is. Work friends and social friends are not the same thing. They CAN be the same thing - you CAN make some of the best friends you'll ever have via work - but they're not always the same thing it's far from inevitable that time spent = close friendship.

Heck... even if they think of each other like brothers/like family, that still doesn't mean they're "best friends". It is, again, a different type of relationship entirely.

'NEIGHBOUR FROM HELL' Caroline Flack’s neighbour slams ex-Love Island host over ‘extremely selfish’ 5am parties and noisy arguments

https://www.thesun.co.uk/wp-content/...1571.jpg?w=620

He said:" All I was asking from her is to be a little more reasonable and show
some consideration for us as the house was terrible.

"We would regularly hear her arguing with Andrew and then she would have
parties at gone midnight until 5am during the week when we had to get up
for work.

"One time I had just had my wisdom teeth out and she started playing really
loud music in the early hours and it was throbbing right under our bed.

"I texted her and told her about my teeth and said could she keep it down

and she replied saying she had wasn't going to live her life by my teeth.

"I just don't think she has any concept of how other people live and she is
extremely selfish. I can understand why Andrew, who was a decent enough
guy, moved to Australia.

In July Caroline even admitted she was a terrible neighbour in an interview
with glossy monthly Cosmopolitan and poked fun at Jake without naming
him.

Although personally I've never been the noise police.

But also again what Caroline did in this situation has nothing to do with the UK Media plus ITV basically removing her from all of her jobs with the witchunt that they did.

And they've not learned either because they tried to get Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby removed recently for just being unlikable, which the last time I checked wasn't a crime.
