BalloonFish posted:it's also going to be depressing watching all the same mistakes and misjudgements made by the Remain campaign in the Brexit referendum all over again - telling Scotland that everything's great and any sort of change is scary rather than even trying to offer actual solutions to problems. The 2014 referendum was actually pretty disastrous for the Better Together campaign. Don't forget that the Yes Scotland campaign got 45% of the vote when polling on the issue 4 or 5 years prior put support for it at 20 odd percent. Some polling shortly before the vote put the independence campaign in the lead. Economic security is most likely what won the referendum for BT and that can't be used as an argument for remaining in the UK in another referendum now the UK is unashamedly committed to pursuing a policy of economic suicide The same effect is likely going to lead to a border poll in NI this decade. A lot of people don't realise that the last census revealed an almost equal protestant/catholic balance in NI and this year's is likely going to show a majority catholic population (and thanks to Brexit, more Irish passport holders than British). The only reason union with the UK was heavily favoured here was because so many people feared the economic consequences of irish unity, despite being culturally predisposed to the idea

I threw a Burns night a few years back where I got vegan haggis for the vegetarians/religious folk. All my guests, including the carnivores, liked them better than the meat ones.  Have to say I still prefer the real deal but the veggie ones are really good too. Also when I was last back I was surprised to find Glasgow has a bunch of really good vegan restaurants these days. Had a fantastic vegan fish and chips in Stereo before a gig there.

We got a veggie and a regular haggis tonight. Both were very good. The Neeps were gash though because I couldn't get a proper one so had to go with frozen.

Had a Simon Howie haggis and it was fine, not enough texture to be honest but better than the sloppy pork ones you get from Asda.

If you don't keep your haggis up to date with your address then it won't be able to keep you informed of any changes to the service.

The best part of Shakespeare's sonnets were when he wrote a bunch of them to a guy in the exact same style as his other love sonnets and then Victorians were like "ah he must have been teaching the lad how to court" and then he wrote some more about the dude's wang and they were like "uh let's just lose these ones" and then modern gammons are like "why do they need to teach LGBTQ history?"

That's reminded me that "pudding" was traditionally some sort of offal meat dish but now the word usually means a sweet dessert. (After your main course you get a pudding - though I suspect there's a class/geography dimension to this.) Except of course for black pudding and yorkshire pudding.

That got back worked into pea being the singular of pease, and then peas into the plural of pea. There's a few different types of pease though.

Pudding, like pie, refers to the form, not the recipe - it basically means "big lump of stuff". So black pudding, Yorkshire pudding, and treacle pudding are all as valid a use of the word as steak and kidney pie and apple pie are of the word "pie" to mean "stuff in pastry".

feedmegin posted:Out of curiosity, why are you taking it as read that the Republic actually wants to absorb Northern Ireland? To the extent of also subsidising Scotland apparently? This comes up occasionally when reunification is talked about, and basically: Because the economic cost means absolutely nothing next to the general Irish belief in unification. I'm not saying any RoI government would definitely welcome Ulster, but the country's foremost political objective for a century now has been to unite the island, so getting the opportunity to do it and refusing would take, uh, shall we say courage* ** *Because the 'Ra would go after them with a fury that makes their hate of Thatcher look like a minor quibbling disagreement over a £12 item in the budget. ** Of course if it requires any constitutional changes the Free State would have to hold a referendum which could go any which way lmao Plus one presumes that it solves a lot of headaches for Dublin and thus the EU in trade matters, doubleplus Brussels would think it's loving funny if the UK broke up because of Brexit and would have ever incentive to support the Irish economy as it absorbed the North.
