I don't understand the song 'Barriers' by David Archuleta.
 
I was chatting with the Jonas Brothers on justin.tv a few hours ago.

I said hi and they said hi back. :teeth:
 

I spent about 5 mins writing something for the holocaust thread, but decided not to post it... It was just mentioning the Milgram Experiment, which I guess most people would have known about on here, and why it was conducted, so there was no reason to make a post on just that.

Who cares about a sale on burberry? It's the symbol of a chav...
 
:guilty: jee thanks

Burberry is a clothing company whose products were initially associated with the chav stereotype. Burberry's appeal to chav fashion sense is a sociological example of prole drift, where an up-market product begins to be consumed en masse by a lower socio-economic group. Burberry has argued that the brand's popular association with chav fashion sense is linked to counterfeit versions of the clothing. "They’re yesterday’s news", stated Stacey Cartwright, the CEO of Burberry. "It was mostly counterfeit, and Britain accounts for less than 10% of our sales anyway."[23] The company has taken a number of steps to distance itself from the stereotype. It ceased production of its own branded baseball cap in 2004 and has scaled back the use of its trademarked checkered/tartan design to such an extent that it now only appears on the inner linings and other very low-key positions of their clothing.[24][25] It has also taken legal action against high-profile infringements of the brand. In August 2006, a company introducing tuk-tuk vehicles into the south coast town of Brighton, England named one the "Chavrolet" which had it painted in the distinctive Burberry tartan. However, the company soon had to withdraw this vehicle when Burberry threatened proceedings for breach of copyright.[26]
