This has broken me. Why...why does he think that would happen, as opposed to the complete opposite? How can any functioning adult (I presume) be so loving naive and stupid? Argh

So is there some backstory to this? Or is he just making GBS threads on some random guy who was proud of his wife's moon photo?

It's NDT...it's most certainly the latter. The guys brain is broken.

Love the way this thread went, in one page, from mocking the woman being snobbish about opera, to being snobbish about popular movies.

Having had a decent (and normally sensible) IRL friend of mine fall down the Peterson rabbit hole, I'm not going to spare him the slightest bit of sympathy. The guy used his platform to embolden Nazis, gently caress him.

And that meat only diet? Lol.

Is there anywhere that summarises quite what's going on with him? I'm wary of sticking his name in Google or whatever since you get poo poo loads of nazi adjacent suggestions from then on.

Not even destroying a toy, destroying their work. A year's worth, to a nine-year-old. Whatever lesson she's trying to impart, all she's telling that kid is that he should never produce or cherish anything, because Mother can make it go away.

Christ. I can't stand Minecraft but that kid would have been really proud of what he created. That's beyond hosed up.

Is it expecting a bit much of Reddit for hoping that everyone on there told her she was a piece of poo poo?

Wait til you find out what they call dish soap. I'm gay as springtime but I'd still have a tough time cleaning my plates with fairy liquid.

That's just a brand. Most people would call it "washing up liquid". Which is a little odd if you think about it too much but so are lots of things I guess. Not like Americans don't have a lot of weird rear end names for stuff.

There's historical precedent for what people have done to monarchies in that situation though, whereas as it is people would complain about "disrespecting the process"

Wow. There was a comment on a vice news article (about a cop saying "kill them all on a BLM livestream") saying something like how most people wouldn't cut it as a cop.

I replied with a really mild comment saying something like "given they have upper limits for intelligence on applying I really don't think the vast majority would struggle. And given how thin skinned they seem to be I think the average cop would struggle in most other professions".

Instantly got a message saying it "went against Facebook community standards" and only I could see it. No recourse. Seems writing anything negative about cops is banned now. Huh. Pathetic.

In this sense, it's an (older, perhaps) British term for "messed up".

Given that he was at Harrow, it's pretty impressive he hosed up his a-levels.

It's pretty obvious what it's for. You force uninterested/atheist kids to go to church holding one of them - said kid then eats the sweets and sets the kid in front of them's hair on fire for which you get a bollocking. It's tradition, innit.

Also looks a bit like a holy hand grenade.

A lot of British food that gets bought up on here is the most basic/awful British food. Plenty of awful American food too guys.

When I went to the states I mainly got the impression of quantity over quality. I had some really good stuff sure, but you get good stuff anywhere in the world. I did find a lot of the food far too sweet, though. So I guess if you're used to that and go anywhere else maybe it'll taste a bit bland.

Jealous of the amount of proper/good Mexican food places you guys have though. (though that's not exactly American - if you guys can claim that the Brits can sure claim a shed load of curries).
