    • He's going to have his work cut out for him when he sees how much Gill Sans is used around London.Nairn
    • Then they came for the paedophiles,

    • He's just getting all holier-than-though because Eric Gill fucked his daughter, sister and dog.Morning_star
    • To be fair, when the sculptor presented the idea - a naked boy held by an elder man - did no one in management think that was a bit creepy?shapesalad
    • @shape, why would you think that? As Hans (Above) points out, if you take that approach we may as well start burning down the art galleries.Morning_star

    • don't judge the guy then. it's only a sculpture.uan
    • The Freemasonry Hate Him!utopian
    • I'm not judging him. He can do what the fuck wants. However, i will judge his actions, which are stupid.Morning_star
    • It might've been a more relevant statement from someone who isn't clearly an attention-seeking pillock.Nairn
