Carrying on from the previous discussion, I used to be very involved in militant anti-fascism and after a while I don’t really hate the fash. They were my enemy and I was theirs but we had common ground in that we all recognised something was deeply wrong and had the will to try and change it. I got to know some of them purely by nature of being stood in the cold with them for hours at a time and I’d happily clobber them, and sometimes did, and vice versa, but we both had a separate disdain for the liberals, a much more awful group of privileged wankers who saw nothing wrong at all. And I don’t mean the real nazis, I mean the maladjusted weirdos who’d fallen down the rabbit hole. I met so many of them who I thought “gently caress, that’s such a shame, cos we see the same problems but we’re knocking gently caress out of each other because you lot have misabttributed that to Muslims or gays or whatever”

Echoing the knife sharpening comment. It’s nowhere near as difficult as people make it out to be on a whetstone and I find it pretty soothing. And you end up with a knife that could cleave through the crust of hell

Every time I hear anything about microkeir, I can’t help but find it really funny and I’m not sure why. The world is this insane, furry poo poo storm of terror that feels like it’s on the cusp of boiling over but just gets hotter and hotter with no release; parts are flying off as the machine spins out of control; the weird is normal and the utterly freakish is now just odd; and in the middle of the maelstrom of poo poo and fury is microkeir, glumly holding his sign about cats and dogs in an empty room.

E: was meant to be say fury but furry’s defo funnier

I hope that young man earning 75k is spending it on the best thing to have NOT been hit by cozzy livs - good old drugs

Seriously it’s wild how the only common drug that’s increased in price in about 20 years is LSD

On cars, I drive a 2012 Sportage because I regularly need to haul a load of stuff around and it’s good for going places with your pals, but tbh I would like a nicer and more fun car at some point. It makes overtaking national express coaches a long, drawn out affair. A couple of grand a month is loving nuts obviously but skewering people on the basis of wanting nicer things is a bit odd. Don’t we all want to be able to go vroooooom on the slip road and relax into a big comfy seat that gets hot in winter, and sing the chorus of Kiss from a Rose dead loud with actually good speakers accompanying us? YES WE DO and if we don’t we should imo

Cowards rely on the speakers, the courageous belt it out at maximum volume unaccompanied.

My car doesn't have anything except an aux jack and I don't use my phone while driving so if I want to hear something I don't have playing already I just turn the music off and scream it myself.

This is admirable stuff i gotta say

I once went for a few pints with my best mate and his dad and dad’s fiancé who were visiting. We got onto politics and eventually global warming, and the girlfriend clearly didn’t want to talk about it but gently caress you if you don’t want to talk about politics suggest something better or shut up. Anyhow, she chimes in that she doesn’t care about climate change because she’ll be dead anyway, and my friend in the nicest manner imaginable points out that this is quite selfish. He really did say it in a nice way too, he’s one of the sweetest people I know. Anyway she literally starts crying and leaves. I couldn’t loving believe it. Cue dad and friend going to console her - he felt bad but if a grown adult, in their 50s/60s can’t handle being told that they’re selfish for saying ‘I’ll be dead anyway so don’t care about others’, that’s their problem. It was a real eye opener.

I’m actually really well travelled (not trying to be a dick or anything), and love going out in other countries, but if I’m honest if I have to go out somewhere every weekend I’d pick here. Where do people think is better, out of interest? My immediate picks would be Mexico which ruled pretty hard, and Berlin for obvious reasons. Bangkok is pretty great as well, in a dream-state sort of way.

Most places have a few issues:

- Not much culture of talking to strangers, making friends for an evening then never seeing each other again.
- Closing far too early (London weirdly is like this), or being limited to clubs after about 2am
- Starting way too late and again being too club-focused
- Rubbish drugs
- e: after inputting from my partner, ill add ‘creepy men’. Not that that isn’t a huge problem here as well as it is everywhere, but it’s apparently worse in most of the rest of the world.

Bear in mind I live in Manchester, not like, Lincoln or somewhere, so I’ve got it good.

In the space of 3 weeks we’ve had Charles get a poorly bum hole, Camilla’s disappeared, Wills’ best mates suffered a shotgun related headblast, and Kate’s fallen off the radar.

I’m telling you he’s lost it and is murdering his way through his friends and acquaintances. Then it’ll be his enemies - I hope everyone in this thread has their anti-William bunker prepared. I’ve got a roast goose ready at all times to throw as a distraction personally.

I reckon there are tons of places you can party all night in London and have a great time, but strangely, they're not the kind of places that advertise to 40-year old goons

You’re right, there are, but you have to already know about them and they tend to be one or two bars/clubs in the arse end of nowhere, as compared to Manchester or Liverpool where you can be vaguely ‘in town’ and there’ll be an entire city centre open to until 4, with the later ‘cool’ places opening ‘til 6am.

Can’t believe this, disappointed in everyone but smc to be honest. The top ones definitely his dads kid isn’t he, Jesus.

Or was anyway, as I said they were taken by William because William taxidermied them and has now locked himself in the palace after crashing through the gates and into a pillar last night. William did a massive line and shot Princess Eugene with a grenade launcher about half an hour later is what I heard.

Me too, it's basically the sort of food most kids got back in the day (70's for me) when their mum's not long got back from work & has to cook their tea.

Either that or we both had deprived childhoods lacking in avacados on toast.

Sure, I had a fair few meals like that but my parents were both busy people and didn’t post fish fingers chips and beans on the internet to show what an amazing job they were doing.

Also who the gently caress has green beans with sausage and chips

Jul 31, 2010
Sorry but the fact that you’re all reasonably okay with mange tout (thank u jc) as the accompaniment to sausage and chips worries me. Sausage and chips rules. Some peas and gravy? Bit of sweetcorn and some tomato sauce? Absolutely. Beans? Well yeah that’s the ideal. But mange tout are dry and squeaky in an already dry and potentially quite squeaky meal.

Nobody has impugned sausages, chips or the combo of the two. It’s the mange tout that gently caress it up and tbh I expected better from you lot

Halloumi is the go to squeaky food example I suppose. Sausages don’t actually squeak but they definitely can have that sort of glazed, slightly tough quality to them that gives them a degree of squeakiness. I’m trying to think of other squeaky foods now
