I just finished assembling flatpack bunk beds so if anyone wants a fist fight I have the rage but not the energy, so now's your chance to drop a 22st 6'1 welshman with a flick on the nose.

fuctifino posted:I'm starting to think that this James guy might not actually be a socialist.... "I'm a liberal" says failed right wing day-time TV talkshow host. (which I only know about from this thread) Let's look at some of the topics from his short lived tv show: Is immigration destroying Britain? Are we too scared to discipline our children? better off on benefits? And some of the guests: Jim Davidson (4/10 eps!) , Edwina Currie, Janet Street Porter, Neil Hamilton's wife, Nadine Dorries & Michelle Mone. But surely some lefties were on it for balance, Surely? : Owen Jones & Matt Forde are as close as it got! The fact that O'Brien tries to lecture right-wing grifters would seem to be motivated more by jealously of their success rather than any objection to content.

This in an error and I would open the package and contact the sending company. While true that most companies would simply write it off, if it was a high value item they would try and recover it.

Bunk beds are fun though. Possibly less so if you are prone to rolling out of bed like me. Did that once as a kid and gashed my head open on the side table and didn't wake up until morning, covered in blood.

Also, while your distaste for various media (and travel) goes further than mine, I'm totally with you on not knowing what people sound like. I've heard Corbyn speak maybe once or twice, Keith never, Trump never. It's great!

James O'brien goes after the easiest targets imaginable, which lets people gloss over the fact that he's an aggressive, abusive bully who belongs in the toilet.

Trump speeches are so brain meltingly stream of consciousness, worth it purely for the "where are you going with this?" novelty. I've only ever seen one person manage to convincingly mimic just how insane and non-sequitur they are. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vk-ZBYyjsko

He really reminds me of my nana, who literally has dementia, when she talks about something she is half remembering but can't quite remember to get all of the operative points in, so you have to puzzle out what she is actually getting at, and she also makes very odd connections to other subjects.

My friend's mother-in-law is bipolar, and when she's having an episode, she descends into word salad. There's no Power of Attorny so my friend drives the MiL to various places and stands in the background watching as various cashiers and receptionists are treated to this wild stream of consciousness. The last one was the bank, whose insistance on speaking to the account holder alone lasted about 3 minutes, during which the answer to "did you make these purchases" went shopping ---> the cash and carry ---> her neice Carrie (who has a pet dog) ----> dogs. Edit: Thatcher's voice didn't sound like Thatcher originally - she lowered it and slowed it down to sound more authoritative.

My favorite part was after like a month, every press outlet in the country switched to paraphrasing what they thought he meant because if they just printed what he said it was too obvious the man was an incompetent lunatic I dont think hes demeted tho, I mean he has acted this way his whole life and it got him a couple billion on paper, the Presidency, and most of all a spot in the WWE Hall of Fame. What has being coherent and good done for anybody lately

I agree entirely - so many impersonations are relying on the likes of 'the biggest, just juuge', the hand gestures and hyperbole, but missing that the real uniqueness is the stream of consciousness and the way that he starts so many more sentences than he finishes.

Jedit posted:If it is a collapsed lung then he'll be in hospital attached to a compressor for the next few days at least. Not in much of a condition to post. Eh it depends - I was awake and aware (not sober) for when they cut a huge hole into my chest cavity to put the tube in. If my phone could do it then, I would  the whole time. Then I got to walk around the ward with a clear plastic lung in my hand that slowly filled with blood. Cool! I had soooo much loving morphine tho, I was clinically speaking pretty much insane for the whole time, until they realised it wouldn't inflate back up on its own and I had to have keyhole surgery. Annoyingly I was given like 10% the morphine after the surgery. Now I have four small scars and a pound size circle by my armpit where I can't feel anything at all. 10/10 would recommend for the amount of morphine I was given
