25 million dollarpounds _is_ a lot of money. For that, I’d star in a televised gangbang with John, George, and Brian Epstein.

I think that 25 mill is small compensation for putting up with a egotistical glorified jingle writer. But that’s just one man’s opinion.

Not that I plan on banging Ms. Mills, but I’d leave it on in an effort to literally try to screw her leg off.

[QUOTE=LilShieste]  
Calling her a hooker because of this is ridiculous, though.

What if she only receives $100? Does that just make her a really cheap hooker? What about any other divorce settlement, in which the woman (or even the man) receives some determined portion of the matrimonial assets?

If you marry _for the money_, whether in expected future alimony or in lifestyle, never sincerely intending to make the marriage work on the customary person-to-person basis, what’s the difference really?

Maybe so.

(lass =\> lad) 🙂

And the pirate metaphor is much more apt than the hooker one, IMO.

The difference may be subtle, but it’s certainly there (see above). That is, it might make you a thief, but it wouldn’t make you a prostitute.

Has anyone seen the lid to my can o’ worms?

True, lass.

She’s not a hooker, by Billy Bones.

She’s a peg-legged Pirate, AARRRR!

And poor Paul is a silly old man, who thought he could recapture the days when he was the sexual fantasy of millions of teenyboppers.

She took advantage, & all the booty she could plunder.

Ar. ☹
