Also whilst you could as a third party outline a long-term plan to rise in stature and prominence so that you one day become one of the big boys, the idea that you can jump from eighteen to an outright majority in a single election is so vastly lol that I can't find a :lol: big enough

They know nobody will trust them with being in coalition for another decade or two so i guess it's go big or go home. Sadly they decided to go big

look I know we have very important news events to discuss these days, but I wanted to take a moment for a recent development which has shaken me to the core.

I just had a Chocolate Orange and the whole experience was distinctly underwhelming. Have they changed the recipe so that it no longer tastes of anything? Have I outgrown my childish love of chocolatey sweets? Has Miftan been embedding subliminal anti-Terryist messages into his forum posts? This is very disturbing. More research may be needed.

It's less of a generational thing and more of an Extremely Online thing. Nobody has any remotely good reason to know or care who Frances Weetman is except the close friends and family of Frances Weetman. You should be proud you held out this long

i had an irrational childhood hatred of pizzas and the baked bean pizza was how my parents convinced me to try them, so it did some good

I do get surprised by americans talking about beans on toast like it's some kind of abomination though. it's bread, tomato sauce, and some entirely inoffensive bits of protein. what are you expecting to go wrong here

Actually, it's weird that there's no gender neutral aunt/uncle word like parent or sibling.

I'd go with ancle, because it sounds less provocative than 'unt.

I've heard "nibling" for a gender neutral word for niece/nephew, which is just adorable enough to break through my fiery hatred of all portmanteaus
