...you that a university education today is a guilt trip for whites. The purpose is to prevent whites from appreciating and absorbing their own culture and to make it difficult for whites to resist the unreasonable demands (quotas, reparations, etc.) from ?people of color.? ... Neither parents, trustees, alumni, nor the public are aware of the anti-white propaganda that masquerades as education. Ding ding...

... which , its bloody annoying for the other passengers waiting trying to board if the driver has to root around for loads of shrapnel because some wally wants to pay with a large denomination note. If you think I'm being unreasonable then go into a corner shop and see the reaction you get if you try and buy a mars bar with a 50 quid note. I quite often pay for my cup morning cup of tea with a twenty. That cuppa costs less than ...

If you have no artistic talent, or just aren't confident enough in your abilities, it is not unreasonable to offer something else of value to the artist, be it a copy of a 'zine, a favor, (sex?) or money. But if you can't draw, don't insist on trying. * Some artists ...

... because some wally wants to pay with a large denomination note. It takes precisely one item of currency to change a 20 quid note over and above a tenner, or precisely two over and above a fiver. If you think I'm being unreasonable then go into a corner shop and see the reaction you get if you try and buy a mars bar with a 50 quid note. But I would be surprised to find gbp20 not accepted.
