PLEASE ASK ABOUT MY 80,000 WORD WALLACE AND GROMIT SLASH FICTION. PLEASE.

On tonight's panel we have conservative feminist blogger and dog fighting afficionado Hydrangea Pumps, chiseled mediterranean sex god Mannis Testiculares, embarassing liberal Katniss Weasely, podcast listener Basement Failson and poo poo-posting superstar and daily forums irritant Pissflaps. I'm Sadly Not Dead Yet and this is New Year's Eve 2016.

Release the audience.

Baby even when I'm dead and gone
You will always be my only one, my only one
When the night is calling
No matter who I become
You will always be my only one, my only one, my only one
When the night is calling

Yeah times not a human construct.

I'm willing to admit when I'm wrong, and agreeing with Pissflaps is a good indicator of that. Time is illusory and was invented entirely by humans.

I'm probably missing something, but why are they measuring leadership contests in .5 increments - surely they should be whole units?

I believe it's in the same subforum as the Aardman slash fiction repository

e: I wish it did exist, though, ideally along with a twenty-paragraph OP detailing forums drama in previous beanie baby megathread iterations

Considering this very thread managed to derail recently in order to briefly discuss spaghetti recipes, maybe this is some backseat effort to steer the debate. Before long we'll all be talking about our fave claymation pairings, interior design and beanie babies and UK-centric politics will fall by the wayside.

Just a reminder: Ian Tomlinson was killed in the street by a policeman in full view of a camera and people still covered for them. At the very least the officer lost their job, I believe, but they never saw a day of hard time for attacking a man completely unprovoked in the street with a weapon, causing his death.

That is loving hilarious. God, liberals are the worst. "10 degrees to the right if it affects them personally", Phil Ochs was right on the money. Well, this reads more like 90 degrees to the right but hey ho.

Anyway, have a happy new year UKMT. I'm going to bed, it's been a long day thanks to all the MMA. So I'll leave you all with a new nomination for thread anthem.

Just out of curiosity, what's generally considered the best way to deal with a riot? Not long-term systemic (that's a little more obvious), just in the immediate here and now when there's a bunch of angry folks on the streets and a whole load of poo poo is on fire. Let it burn itself out? Step up the police presence and encourage it to burn itself out? Go a little more direct than that?

"When I was a girl, around 12 or 13, I had a fantasy that I'd grow up to marry Captain Scarlet, but he'd be busy fighting the Mysterons so I'd cuckold him with the sexiest people I could think of - Nigel Mansell, Pat Sharp and Mr. Blobby."

Mister Adequate posted:

I spent a little over an hour this year(oh its 2017 already, letz get this improvemnt goin) genuinely worried that someone was going to murder me (as in they were threatening to kill me, had the ability to and I had little defence if they wanted to). This only ended because the police arrived. ACAB but goddamn if sometimes institutional force isn't a good thing.

Live, be happy for your life even if you can't be happy with your life and always fight for a better life for everyone.

Sorry, that was a dumb post that didn't really add anything other than me still freaking out over my brush with mortality which others might well have experienced worse in the year.

Humanity is cool and we should all be able to live together when we all accept that and have the conditions which allow that.
