That little wimp Danny Tomo crying in court LOL. Why do the happy clappers get behind such limp wristed little men like this gremlin and Tommy Robinson. If you’re gonna be subservient to another bloke at least ensure he’s got a bit about him

Last Autumn feels like 3 years ago.

I assume you are relatively young?

I've been retired for 3 years now and it's passed so quickly.

Christmas will be here before we know it and it seems like only last week we packed the tree and decorations away.

Here's a possible explanation:

"There’s a mathematical theory that we perceive a period of time as the proportion of time that we’ve already lived through,” For a two-year-old, a year is half of their life, which is why the time between birthdays seems to take an age for young people. By the time we’re ten, a year is just 10% of our life, so the wait becomes more tolerable.

“This idea suggests a logarithmic scale to the perception of time, or an exponentially increasing speed to the passing of time,”

TBF waiting till September to put the Christmas Tree away is pretty meta

Been working for a while on a joke about Sean Connery refusing to share his shellfish but can't get the set up and punchline quite right. Very frustrating.

I can't be bothered any more. I think the problem is that social media and billionaire fuelled media have created a political discourse that is all about how terrible everything is. If you look at immigration, a key example, taking students out of the numbers immigration is actually down to David Cameron's aim of tens of thousands - labour have cut it hugely in two years - yet the media and social media narrative is still how awful immigration is and labour is to blame! We live in an age where facts don't exist, everything is dialled up to ten in terms of pitting people against each other, and everything is catastrophised. I am struggling to be arsed but I think that's exactly what those oil magnates want when they fuel all this.

So, you're saying LCFC aren't as bad as everyone is saying?

It's because the little weasels who follow them see themselves in them.

 

They think dressing up and being right-wing automatically makes them hard.

True but why be subservient to weak little men? I’m not condoning Andrew Tate but I can understand why losers believe in what he says. He’s a ‘real’ man, a fighter, dresses well. 

If you’re a loser you will bow at his feet which is what hundreds of thousands of weak losers with no pride do. Danny and Robinson are the opposite

A lot of English people are just very angry because they are spiritually and materially poor, their wives are ugly and they live in horrible grey towns. And because they drink. So they fantasize about inflicting suffering on others. Reminds me a lot of what I've read about Russian society.

Yeah this is true. A lot of people see left wing views as effeminate like nice cheese and tippy tappy football

Good point. Bad weather doesn’t help

Something I’ve been noticing a lot recently is just how much so called leftists (not on this forum just what I’ve seen) look down on working class people and resort to classist insults.

And a large issue with this is it becomes both self-fulfilling and self-perpetuating.

 

People use classist insults, working class people instead find people who at least pretend to understand them, those working class people then make political decisions that affect everyone apart from a few negatively, leftists insult working class people for that decision making, rinse and repeat.

Not working class people but probably look down on reform voters who do tend to be more working class and less educated.
