Ex-a few things, now mow lawns and shout at trees.
There's enough for everyone, some people need to learn to share better.
Into old toys, sci-fi, comics, films.
I run because I have to ... you'll never see a cheetah jogging for fun.

There's a hardcore of 20% who are thick as shit and shouldn't be allowed out unescorted.
There's another 20% that are stupid enough to fall for any old shit, if it ties in to a group they hate, all the better.
The There's another 20% who are too lazy or too busy to find truth or change.

"He was probably the most honest president we have ever had."
That explains only one term. I'm surprised the REAL power in the USA let him get that far.

#4 is extremely important. Get a lawyer; no matter how innocent you may be, willing to give your side or want it over quick. Cops will tell you it's a simple job and lawyer will delay things. Ignore them.
Also ask them for ALL the options and have a good think before committing to your choice.

They were brainwashed by jingoistic secondary moderns that were still educating for the 19th century.

No point being nice to them, like fat-boy Ferrari was being. Call them what they are.

Richard wants the RN to machine gun any survivors in the water.
Richard wouldn't do it himself, so wants others to do his dirty work.
Richard is a vile creature with no humanity.
Richard is a bit of a dick.

The UK's problem is a large bunch of grumpy, rather dim, old people who, whenever Europe is mentioned, start with "During the war....".
They're not old enough to have been in that war, but still bang on about it.
They need to go before the nation can move forward.

Seems to have always been their way.
Park a tank in someone's garden, wait for a kid to throw a stone at it, then level the street in 'self defence'.

3 or 4 progressive parties and Reform [The Tories won't have a party as long as they retain Badenoch].
The hard-of-thinking only have one choice.
Trouble is, there's a lot of them out there.

Few angry gammon-Boomers in that crowd.
They're determined to fuck us all over before they finally die.
Good fucking riddance. Sick of them holding us back with their "We had it so hard" whining.
Luckiest generation ever thanks to their parents voting for changes. The very stuff they want rid of.

It's like the UK if the Tories had been in charge since 1776.
The problem started when they let a bunch of rich, WASP, male, masonic, terrorist, slave-owning, land-grabbing, tax-dodgers set the nation's agenda. Trump fits right in.
A nation has been gaslit to think greed is an attribute.

I've never been a huge fan, there was always something not quite right with the place.
The health care sums it up. Poor. You die. Your own fault.
It's like a corporation that became a country. Created by violence, and thinks violence is the answer.

The UK needs to put on it's big boy pants, cut its ties with the US and start apologising to the rest of the EU for being dicks.
A mid-life crisis.

It's a free-for-all. A once in a lifetime chance to do exactly what they've always wanted to with no consequences.

"That is not who we are as a country." ... you sure?
Look back through history. Trump only had to scratch the surface and there's 40% approving of what he's doing.
They've always been there.
The US system not only allows it, but encourages it. Dog eat dog. Greed's good.
This is a big part of the USA

"Yeah, but no, but yeah". Nearly put "How very dare you" then remembered that was Catherine Tate, "What a F-in' liberty".

Was never a fan of DW or LB. Every time I turned it on it seemed to be the same 'Joke'.
"Computa sez no"
"I want that one"
"It was an avoidable error of judgement that meant all my clothes fell off......"
That'll save anyone having to watch the box set.

Or will it be like Labour in the UK and let bygones be bygones.
"It's not about the past, it's about the future"
Two cheeks of the same corrupt ass. We will ignore what you did, you ignore what we're going to do.

At least there'll be good availability of "FULL MAGNETS".

Was going to go back, but not now.
TBH the place always seemed a bit odd. Like the UK if the Tories had been in charge since 1776.
Most people are good, but there was always something not quite right; social values or whatever. Never seemed as free as they claimed.

I like that because Trump supporters, like dumb right-wingers across the English-speaking world, always choose the wrong homophone.

Trouble is, too many Americans have been brainwashed into thinking it's only a matter of time before they're rich, so don't want to attack the rich.
So busy waiting their turn, they don't realise how F-ed over they're being.
The people who created America knew what they were doing.

No different to when they were chasing slaves who wanted nothing more than to be free.
I fear this was always America - now it's just in plain sight.
