That & maybe the usual all seeing eye & the word WOR (war)?, I dunno "shruggs"
Now I'll have a cup of Earl Grey & scone with a nice gentleman in a top hat... :rolleyes:
I didn't notice WOR until you mentioned it, and I also missed the all-seeing eye. Was the eye the number 9 with the dot inside of it? Also I just noticed that the star cluster at the beginning forms a pentagram/spiderweb thing.

Scones? More synchronicity... I bought scone mix today, first time I can ever remember doing that.

Yes, that also stood out,
Wouldn't want to have Mr Dobees job these days, he'd have a bit of a difficult time keeping the kids entertained with the same calibre as back then.
Wasn't that long ago when Humphrey Bear got beaten up! Though I don't know where their parents were,
kids have such different entertainment expectations now days, but that's got alot to do with the Industry as a whole.

Very few real gentlemen around these days, I'd be ashamed if my sons spoke to a lady the way I've just seen one do just then! hmmm, tcchh, tcchh....
This is a double-edged sword Allegiance...I could say the same thing about females also...however, NO ONE irregardless of their gender has to put up with obnoxious behaviour...and yes, we're at a point now where people are so over-stimulated and demanding gratification immediately [with many thanks to technology , alien and otherwise] many have lost their humanity or their Human 'being' if you know what I mean?

But, whether people like it or not the female gender is able to get away with a hell of alot more than males in western cultures. And WHO is behind this elevation of the female gender? The Orion Reptilians [who are governed by their Queen] and female dominated. Most have fallen for their trickery of painting it all up into 'gender equality' and 'womens rights'.

Yes, sure, that whole issue applies to females as well,
I had noticed & was referring at the time to a post that had been quickly deleted & it got me thinking how many rude people there are around who just don't seem to have any manners.
It Just got me imagining a world where everyone had respect & manners, something I value & I don't mean just on a superficial level.
Girls can be the worse sometimes, I remember years ago taking my kids when they were younger to an apparently supervised blue light disco, & it ended up a brawl with the girls trying to be tough & beating up the boys, threatening them with knives & the language was unbelievable & I'm talking around age 10/11 & I remember thinking at the time that obviously that's what their accustomed to & that's what their going to recieve back in their lives, down in town you've got young kids roaming the streets mouthing off & looking for trouble thinking that their so cool, but that whole thing seems to be repeated throughout society every where on various levels & it's sad. I'm trying not to see it everywhere but I do.
Some people have just lost that special 'something'.

Yes, manners seem to have gone bye and bye.

I guess they went out the window when it became the norm to just blab anything in public. Or maybe it was all those "i hit you, you hit me, cartoons" that have been going on for 30+yrs. Or maybe it is all those video games where you shoot anyone that doesn't do what YOU want them too. Or maybe.......OUR CURRENT EVERYTHING NOW ME ME ME ME MEEEEEE western culture!

Can't blame it just on feminism, though that didn't help and I don't like that 'ism' too much. I feel that was a gigantic sneaky manipulation of half the population.

Back 'in the days'.... before our generation at least, people were more formal. You dressed up to go out. You knew more than one language. Most people were VERY educated in the middle and upper classes and it was 'the thing' to have SOCIAL DISCUSSIONS about poetry, current events (without shouting). Those in the lower classes may not have been educated, but had IMPECCABLE manners when around the opposite sex, and there were MANY taboos. So I guess when the taboos all got squashed, so did everything else. Maybe it started with the roaring twenties, sigh.

Oh well. I know someone else can probably say it much better.
