Gordon Brown grows to incredible proportions and turns green whenever he is angry. He was exposed to gammon radiation by an old lady. He threw a tank once. I seen it.

I still vividly remember Gordon Brown allegedly punching that old lady as he screamed bigot in her face. I'm not making that up and will ask the mods to ban anyone suggesting it's not the truth

GhostofJohnMuir posted:i have an office mate who regularly participates in strongman competitions, and he needed two other guys to move a typical office photocopier ten feet without a dolly. the thought of anyone "throwing" one is insane He absolutely could have picked it up alone, but it would have been damaged by him taking a good grip with his giant claws, like Gordie did.

Then realise you'd rather be at work, and double wonder what the hell you're doing? No. Even at my most depressed this was never a thought that crossed my mind. If it did I think it'd be a sign to section me as I had lost my sense of self, just utterly alien a concept to me, laziest man alive

He is right that the overarching answer is the (re-)socialisation of housing construction though, so only a half-moron

After about a decade of the provincial government actively trying to address housing issues with different measures, it’s abundantly obvious that this is the only way you can ever truly solve a housing crisis, and people are finally sort of coming around to that realization.

See I've always thought the solutions were obvious but because they don't benefit the people making all the money off the current way of doing things they just aren't given any oxygen by the people in charge.
