"sexed up" in the air
Before I could only muse over this bloke's banal jokes and him not paying attention to this lady's voice-overs through the Windows Media Player on-line radio. Now that HY has downloaded Real1 Player, invisible third party discourse has once again take place in my room. Easy to imagine, nowadays you can literally not step outside your den and still become a remarkably worldy-wise man by listening to BBC radio's various talk shows catered to your needs. So tonight I clicked on my newest delight and the key phrase "sexed-up" kept on repeating in a loop... (*smile* commentary by UCL English tutor) In short, BBC correspondent AG accused Downing Street AC of "sexing up" a dossier on Iraq's banned weapons; whilst furious AC responded that it was a violation of government integrity, BBC's big hot shots backed their staff saying "the source was credible". Whether using "sexed-up" or Iraq terrorism was a bigger issue, though both reports have been equally covered (a concerned mum switched off the radio because she thought the phrase would ruin her baby's ears), it seems that despite how liberal we claim to be, society's language of sexual reference is forever at stake. Always with a farrago of anxiety and excitement, for instance the sexuality of Reading bishop and notably that he and his partner is celibate has to be mentioned. At this time of the day I'm void of all deep thought and can only come up with silly sentences: Have the SARS reports been sexed-up? Or, Have the SARS reports been climaxed? Have the SARS reports reached an orgasm? Try this, Have the SARS reports come to an orgy? The conclusion it appeared was to make the ignorant public alert, but not alarmed with whatever issue. However, please please mind your language.
