If you opened this page without seeing the previous posts, I want you to hazard a guess as to what the gently caress I'm on about before going back to find out. I dare you

Gigantes are great; as a vegetarian living in Greece I ate them all the time. But whatever you do, don't ever plant one in the ground... that's where giants come from.

OwlFancier posted:Speaking of beans, I found something terrifying in the supermarket the other week. I make these myself ever since we found them in cans in Germany. We make our own baked beans as you can control the carb content of the sauce and the larger beans end up having a better glycemic index for the wifes diabetes. They also taste fantastic. Absolutely recommend.

Whenever I’m away from the U.K. the only food I proper miss and can’t usually find is beans. You always go to a cafe and the ‘full English’ has some like actual beans in actual tomato sauce, not the orange poo poo I love

If he cleaned his act up and made it clear to MPs that they cannot take money from other sources, and started trying to get the government on a very ethical, whiter-than-white basis, I guess I would still support him. But I suppose the question you’ve really got to answer is, is it in his character to do so?” Lol

It's fun and all seeing someone bash johnson but then there's the aftertaste of this dickhead - who was fine with the racism and depriving poor people etc etc while the poll numbers were okay - strutting around like he's a top kingmaker of a supposedly democratic government just on the basis of having oodles of cash, and i want to go live in a cave

Entirely accidental I'm sure but this is a pretty loving incisive post If MPs weren't allowed to take additional jobs that would have to increase the influence of direct donors as it would be the main place for them to skim from.

Except it would mean that MPs wanting to get their nose in the trough have to toe the party line much harder to get to the higher positions with access to the funds so it would increase party discipline amongst the greedy.

Donors can and do donate directly to individual MPs and candidates in the form of election and office expenses, seconded staff, and other freebies. Unions do the same thing for Labour.

There's some discussion over whether since 1911 he can be a Lord (probably not and even if he could there's no way to get him upstairs without appointing another, different, PM who would then have to resign to let him in).

Honestly surprised they put it in that big a font. I suppose the ruling probably included specifics though because they'd absolutely take the piss otherwise (6pt font, yellow ink, upside down)

It’s nothing like when someone without the vaccine catches it, nothing at all.

I think specifically the suggestion is that he thinks that he has caught a cold and the people who have been vaccinated against covid are for some reason weak to colds, unlike his big brain vaccineless immune system.
