Their victory lap over having made one correct decision in this whole catastrophe is nauseating.

that's politics though isn't it. Downplay all the failures and crow about the victories.

I won't deny that if Corbyn got in he'd have to do the same. He'd have to because the press would be working overtime to do the opposite anyway.

Thread, I need virtual pub quiz round ideas. We've been doing this over Zoom for nearly a year now and I'm out of juice. We've done endless movie trivia, Guess the Next Line, mashups, name the flag, general knowledge, identify the city from the aerial view, name this weird fruit, name this spaceship, name these songs from this Weird Al polka medley, name these Scooby Doo celebrity guest stars, and a million other rounds... Help

run a movie synopsis through google translate several times and then back into english and make them guess the movie

also: pixellate a famous movie scene and make them guess the movie (i had a round get harder and harder and to my astonishment someone guessed american beauty for the last question despite my image having 6 pixels in it)

Can someone explain for big dumb dumbs like me what negative interest is and how / why it's a big deal? Preferably in a way I can count on my fingers.

1. Central Bank says "sure you can store your money with us but instead of giving you interest on it, we're gonna charge you instead"

2. Commercial banks (and private investors thinking of tying up money in bonds/gilts) say "well gently caress that, I ain't paying to store my money, I'm gonna spend it instead" and start lending it to businesses and individuals, or buying poo poo, stimulating growth

3. Economy goes brrrrr

Low interest rates (negative or not) are an excellent time to borrow money, including mortgages

should I stop using oval office too?

The thread has had many a derail on the matter of the word oval office. In the end the thread decided that the tories are cunts and will always be cunts and should be called out for being cunts.

You should probably stop using it within earshot of your girlfriend though if it upsets her. You don't need to use it.
