No imagination and rejection of imagination

Robert Crlyle and the guy who looks like the former Everton coach Moyes seems to represent all the faces of British civilians I can imagine. Especially when practicing dance, the use of Arsenal's offside tactics, only the British have this kind of humor.
I don’t know if the United Kingdom is a conservative country. I have never been to the United Kingdom, but I have lived in the party country for more than 20 years. After watching the full monty, I only have one feeling that we are a country that has no imagination and rejects imagination. What's worse, we are a nation without a sense of humor.
Poetry should interfere with politics until politics ceases to interfere with poetry (like Brodsky said). I think this is why our composition for the college entrance examination is the only reason why we are not allowed to write poetry. Because "poetry is a shortcut to anything imaginable" (Brodsky). With imagination and sense of humor, we will become a "mob" that cannot be ruled and cannot be defeated. Our grace and tenacity and our wisdom will make those old B scared.
Stifling imagination is a long-term and arduous task, and the party-state has done it successfully. But it cannot succeed forever. Because the yearning for freedom is human nature, as if they were born naked.

    Thinking of the "Calendar Girl" I watched a few years ago, it was also a story of undressing.

    It turns out that the wave of laid-offs in the 1990s was worldwide, creating the "Six Heroes of the Light Pig". I like this translation very much, it seems vulgar, but it does what it means. I do not deny the reality that life is still difficult after this so-called Once and Only performance, but if there is no once, just a difficult life, will it be a little tired again, so let life still be unsatisfactory, come and enjoy it from time to time performance is enough

The Full Monty quotes

  • Dave: [When presented with the first images of "Flashdance"] Hey, what's this? I didn't go on the nick in Asda for some chuffin' women's DYI video!

    Gaz: It's "Flashdance", Dave. She's a welder, isn't she!

    Dave: A welder? Well, I hope she dances better than she welds! I mean, look at that - her mix is all to cock!

    Dave: Shut up, Dave. What the fuck do you know about welding, anyway?

    Dave: More than some chuffin' woman! Arh, it's like Bonfire Night! That's too much acetylene, is that! Them joints will hold fuck all!

    Gerald: Arh, for Christ's sake, Dave. We're looking for dancing, aren't we!

    Gaz: He's got the hump about Asda!

  • Dave: [Gaz tries to convince Dave to steal a videotape] Why me?

    Gaz: Because you've got an honest face, lad; I've got "serial killer" written on me forehead.
