I think Dredd himself has done it about.. three times? Anyway, while most people read 2000AD as a kid and thought the Judge system and megacities were a terrible vision of a dystopian future the Tories thought they were something to aspire to. Eventually London will consume the rest of the UK turning it in to Brit-Cit and judges will patrol the streets meting out punishment.

Was just in the corner shop and saw a tabloid with the title "Paedo in his speedo" with a man in his speedo. I guess this is a public service. They deem this sight to be incredibly disturbing and harmful to children, which is why they've decided to print it on every single newspaper in every single shop in the country. At child height.

Well the British are largely the descendants of people who, when the old British turned up and said "We have a flag" didn't immediately kill them and drive them away so I guess that's why, maybe?

I completely shattered my hip during rugby in school because I had a growth spurt and that apparently made it fair game for virtually every single person in the rugby team to tackle me simultaneously. Having essentially what is a hip replacement at the age of 13 isn't fun times.

Without historical responsibility we pretty much come into a situation where We've Always Been at War With <x> The entire field of historical study isn't just for shits and giggles, it's because there are usually so many scenarios that have already played out that we can find potential solutions/pitfalls for situations we're currently going through.

The idea of "karma" that exists in Buddhist thought is not the same idea that people "get what's coming to them". It's basically a form of the golden rule with an even bigger side dose of guilt and shame because if you do bad actions, you not only do those bad actions, but are also responsible for creating a world in which such bad actions exist. Essentially you're not just doing bad actions, you're also a bad person for doing them. It's why certain offshoots of Buddhism, such as Jainism, take any form of harm to any sort of life as utterly reprehensible.

I admit I'm not hugely knowledgeable about how the sex industry works beyond 70s films, but isn't the entire reason pimps exist specifically because the entire practice is illegal and it's not as if the prostitutes he's got a hold over are going to go to the police because they've got a much higher chance of being thrown away than he does? It's essentially domestic violence without any sort of legal structure to deal with it. Not even the poo poo structure that exists with regular domestic violence.

Actually that thing that horses do isn't an expression of anything. They're utilizing a little known sense they have to smell pheromones. To maximize the effectiveness of this, they do that with their mouth as it exposes more of the sensory parts to the thing they want to sense. It's called the Flehmen response and it's pretty neat!

Fans posted:They are evil killing machines and we must be wary. My family have always been involved in the horse breeding business and one thing I've noticed about horses is that they're the complete opposite of this. They will just give up and drop dead at the drop of a hat. I think if they weren't so incredibly useful for humans they'd have probably died out ages ago since they're too loving stupid to survive.

Not So Fast posted:I would wager a lot this is down to horse breeders not breeding for intelligence, but for speed / stamina instead. Pretty much. I think all domestic horses are the product of a handful of breeding stock. They have even less genetic diversity than the people riding them.

I read a pretty thought-provoking (in a very bad way) book by Foucault called Discipline and Punish that does go into some detail about the mentality of why prisons and other institutions of organized punishment came to be.

The major downside to organ donation is of course that you could end up as a donor to someone like Rupert Murdoch or Dick Cheney or something. I'm pretty sure oligarchs don't go through the traditional channels and probably just keep street urchins for their purposes but there's always the small chance.

Ancient Greeks also liked to claim that the youth were destroying society and that it would all crumble thanks to them and their stupid loving fads. So they were several thousand years ahead of the curve there.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82vl34mi4Iw Explains the origin of the term. It then became "people of colour" to make sure that it wasn't gender-exclusive. "People of colour" is a social union. A term of solidarity. Surely UKMT would be approving of that.

The Colbert Report etc reporting of the Jimmy Savile thing was pretty fun, because they had the opportunity to show a picture of Jimmy, to a bunch of people who had no idea who he was, and say "Britain didn't know this man was a pedophile" The jokes literally wrote themselves.

Back in the heyday of boat racing, working class bodies would often be floated down the Thames. One corpse managed to, thanks to its remarkable streamlined nature and buoyancy, beat the racers. It is thanks to this that the proud "working class tradition" of boat racing began.
