It's The Sun. The Sun is a tabloid. This story is fake.
I agree.
Hmmm... let's read between the lines. This young woman spends the night with a recruiter and borrows his uniform. I don't think she's sleeping on the couch in the living room. She's wandering around a base full of men "without questions"... although I imagine the better image would be walking around the base fogging the minds of men with, let's say, lethal artillery of her own.
The idea of a young woman using what used to be called "feminine wiles" to get whatever she wanted is a story as old as time. The good news is that the Islamofascist hates women, and no doubt fears this persuasive power that women have over men, so I would doubt that some Islamic woman will wander through the barracks providing entertainment for the troops while handling the equipment. Not to mention touching the guns and tanks!
Frankly, I'd want someone with that kind of cleverness and survival skills on my side. Assuming she can also follow instructions and exhibit discipline, I'd sign her up.
Considering this was in The Sun, I wonder if she'll end up on Page 3.
Send her over to the US Marine Recruiters in NYC. They will take her in a heart beat!
The Sun is more of a "NY Post" tabloid than a "Weekly World News" tabloid. There IS a difference.
Every Soldier needs one!
It ryhmes with fag.
Reminds me of an English professor I knew, way before the onslaught of sexual harassment 'awareness and training', who opined that he loved 'busty women, with small bones.'
What was the old WWII British adage? Americans, 'over-sized, over-sexed and over here!'
Thanks; usually people post these articles with UK or australian slang and no explanation or dictionary link.
If the term blonde makes you think of a man, elderly or otherwise, stay away from brokeback mountain.
Growing up with The Rockford Files, I always wondered just how far a faker with a confident act could really go.
Think about it - 99% of the time people never ask for your ID, and size you up based solely on your attitude.
You're quite welcome; I'm delighted that it's been of some help. It may be worthwhile to consider bookmarking the sites I linked to, and also to bear in mind for the future that there are MANY slang dictionaries online which can be found by searching with keyword strings such as "British Slang Dictionary", Aussie Slang Dictionary" etc.
By definition, slang will oftentimes include bawdy and hardcore language inappropriate for polite circumstances, and there is a VAST difference in the comparative quality and worth of the online dictionaries not only in terms of their completeness but in their accuracy as well. By it's nature, slang usage will also change rapidly with the times and so it's simply not possible to rely on a single source for all circumstances.
Fortunately, we have many British and Aussie FReeper friends who can help us out if necessary :-) .
Quite true, and scandals like this one will accelerate the push toward more sophisticated ID verification systems such as retinal scanning, fingerprint access terminals and implanted RFID chips. When you're dealing with men in their late teens and early twenties with out-of-control, raging hormones a vivacious and buxom lass can become an amazingly effective weapon.
There is an underground "sport" based on that idea. It is an offshoot of Infiltration. Instead of breaking or sneaking in, they bs their way in.
I would agree, considering the source. This is a story.
So, blondes DO have more fun, eh?
"They should consider recruiting her for covert operations."
