That's made me chuckle, Rob, as I'd guess you've just had an encounter with an 'Ian' at work and couldn't help posting!

My longest-serving ( over 45 years ) and possibly my best friend is an Ian. Not a malicious bone in his body.

Now that's a spooky coincidence Salmon Spray, as I've just been thinking of any Ians I know and I can only recall one, long ago, who was named Ian Salmon - and a very nice chap he was too.

I think we've heard more than enough, and that's without me mentioning the 'difficult' Ian Dury.

Credible witnesses have spoken and the Ians have to be avoided. There can be no room for sentimentality in a detailed Public Enquiry like this.

Gentleman of Chit Chat. I am in a right old state, and need your advice.

We live in a nice quiet area, thankfully free (as yet) of Pretendy Refugees from Syria (i.e ISIS terrorists), but there is a HUGE and TERRIFYING spectre on our horizon.

I have learned that a person named IAN has purchased the house two away from us and will be moving in after Xmas. What the Huntleying, Shipmaning hell do I do about it?

Is there some sort of puerile type of online Petition (a la the Donald Trump one) that I could sign to stop it happening? 

Think of me kindly as I spend what might be my last peaceful Xmas.

The bad Ians are a tiny minority which give the vast majority of decent and law abiding Ians a bad name.
It's getting out of hand now. After Sir Ian Botham's recent charity walk where he once again raised a small fortune, a noxious Twitter hashtag #youAintNoIanBruv was a cruel reminder of the prejudice that

When in fact, apart from a short time training in Canada he served only in the UK. Then he joined the police and is heavily involved with a specially selected squad pursueing organised crime.

The fact that virtually all "Ian"s are total coonts isn't quite as illogical as it might at first sound.  I mean they were given that name by their parents.  It is an awful name surely we are all agreed on that, however you spell it, just awful.  You would have to be an @rsehole to name your son "Ian". So if you are called "Ian" your parents, by definition, are @rseholes.  Simple genetics tells you that you have a greater than 85% chance of being an @rsehole.  And that is just the genetics, that is if you were adopted at birth and brought up by reasonable people.  Chances are that didn't happen, chances are that you were brought up by those vile specimens that decided to title you, of all things, "Ian".  So not only have you got the "nature" side of being an @rsehole covered by virtue of the genetics, you probably have the "nurture" side bagged too because you were brought up by @rseholes, learning you from the day dot how to be an @rsehole in future life.  Monkey see monkey do and all that.  In fact Ian, I bet you  are such a coont you would call your own son Ian out of spite.  The cycle needs to be broken, crucifixion too good for them I reckon.

We'll never forget our very own "IAN M*hamm*d".

He gave a home to (Imaginary) Pretendy Refugees, because it was "the only moral and humanitarian thing to do". Oh, and anyone who didn't he dismissed as "narrow", which amounts to 99.99% of Britain, including of course the entire Corbyn front bench that he worships.

I though I might even be able to track our "IAN M*hamm*d" on social media, but the closest I could come to was this chap. A long lost forumite made his views known in the  comments below the film.
