Where did that nice bar at the bottom go?




The UP arrow was so useful!




Please put it back!

Come on Gryzor, give us the bar back. This eternal scrolling is very tedious!

Just for the scrolling? So, better to use the "Home" and "End" keys from your keyboard. ;)
(cmd+up or cmd+down under OSX)

My guess is TFM is referring to the old Korova Milk Bar, where my droogs used to hang out with me. Personally, I preferred velocet while my droogs were ravished by synthemesc, whereafter we did a bit of the ultraviolence.
In the end I was cured a long time ago, so no need for the bar.

4 options to demand the bar back and only one to vote against, this vote would be worthy of any Euro election.

Just check out the last elections in Germany. So much people went to the police and sued the government for cheating that the police decided to ignore them (die haben einfach keine Aktenzeichen mehr ausgegeben, was weiss ich wie man das auf Englisch schreibt).




But...




THE BAR MUST COME BACK!!! WE ALL WANT IT!!!

Really? Strange that that story didn't make it into any news channels or newspapers.

Why did they go to the police? You go to a lawyer if you want to sue someone. :D

I agree, I don't care much for polls and this one simply reinforces my concern about them, I mean what's wrong with "Do you want the bar to come back? Yes / No / I Don't Care".

Judging by the comments it seems that quite a lot of you haven't seen A Clockwork Orange. Shame on you. :P
Anyway, the film's milk bars serve milk with a dash of various stronger substances.


@steve: the German comments are not racist.

Um well it has been a while since I've seen it. What was the upshot of the movie? The ring leader (Malcolm McDowell) of the gang was sentenced to correction, reformed and then punished by the public for all the earlier offences made.

That's the gist of it. However, he's been betrayed by his gang members and then caught by the police, the therapy itself made him defenseless to other acts of aggression (and society itself in the movie is full of aggression, but these forms are "established" and systemic), most of the people he did harm to then use him for their own purposes. In the end, he's driven to suicide which he survives. The government that put him in therapy then reverts it, and Alex is "cured". The book has another chapter where Alex finally settles and plans to have a family - thus the cycle continues.
There are a lot of interpretations of the film and the book; it is disturbing and IMO accurately reflects parts of modern society.

Anyway, when I read about a bar ... A Clockwork Orange's milk bar was the first connotation that came to my mind. ;)
