Get with the times. They turned off the gas themselves two years ago. That's why you have all these LNG projects over here and in the Middle East.

There was a deal in place back in 1994. Clearly that was not worth the paper it was written on.
And, again, please tell me if you are ready to go to war if a NATO member is being attacked or if that whole defense commitment is meaningless to you, too. Is your word your bond?

So you didn't watch the vid.
That's fine, then.
Feel free to summarize in your own words
Exactly how far into a trade war before it's legally OK to go full cannibal? Because I for one could really use a change from chicken.

Ready for anything and I don't have a problem with somefucking evilcompany touting how well their product kills.

I was going to cite The Osterman Weekend for coolness factor of a crossbow but when I found the trailer, turns out the iconic image of the chick was just a compound bow.
I'm going to bow out pending further developments.
We've spilled enough bad blood in here.

If all else fails, we can settle our differences on the battlefield like men: crossbows at 10 paces.
It's all fun and games until someone gets a bolt in the throat.
If it will placate Trump, you can have one of our Ryans. Your choice as long as it's Gosling.
I would care. I like Canada.
In other news, looks like I don't have lung cancer after all. Just a fractured spine which has barely healed over eight years, without, I might add, developing an opioid dependency like the rest of you yankee bum boys. Oh, and a folic acid deficiency, absolutely no sex drive, blinding cataracts (which have destroyed my ability to play video games) and a morbid fear and hatred of other people in the same vein as Sartre, which took shape acutely while I was interned in bed for a year and a half, utterly unable to move. I've been on the waiting list for new eyeballs for the past ten years. I'm typing this by muscle memory.
I can promise youse this, though, we are absolutely not going to achieve sense and pragmatism in the $20 thread on a board which is literally undead, populated and observed by Russian bots. No way, no how. The three of you fools (at least Idol sees the irony) are addicted to this board. I sympathise, I've been there myself.
Go and find a proper addiction, like hoarding or self-harm, you big self-important, ineffective zomboids. At least in the old days we had bittards and Dave to harsh. Kinda made it worth it.
This is just contributing to my burgeoning depression and anxiety. And I'd love to see how long you'd all last on a thriving board again. Reddit doesn't count cos that voting system is designed to destroy cunts like me. The better, more honest the post, the more likely it is to be downvoted into tard oblivion.
That said, tomorrow is a new day boys. Resurrect that razor wit and cut a dickhead's throat with it.
Talk about anticlimactic. You led off with delusions of lung cancer, now it's difficult to muster sympathy for an old hazy-eyed misanthrope with a limp dick and a back ache.
At least Mister Magoo got out of the house on occasion. Do yourself a favor, eat a few eggs and a couple salads, talk to your doctor about blue pills, and while you're at it pop a couple Tylenol.
I can't tell if you're more of a white cane or guiding pooch kind of guy but one way or the other it's time to get some fresh air and face the big scary world. Harden the fuck up. I'm sure if you rummage deep enough in your laundry pile you can find your big boy pants.
How are you, guys?
I've been celibate for about 7-8 years now, but that was more a byproduct of not getting into any more relationships since my asexual nature complicates them too much. I entertained trysts outside of relationships, but it was more like I forced myself to try something that I wasn't into, and I had no subsequent change of heart. I have not missed it.
I do wank though because I fear for what might happen to my sphincter if it doesn't get the exercise. It's not frequent though. I'm not worried about anything else like cardiovascular health or the like, I just know that if I happen to go longer than a week or so without drawing out some goo, I feel like the productive poos go on break. It's not something I need to think about, but why would you go cold turkey on handling your wattle?
My eyessss-- why did I read all of that??? :pinch:
It's different for every person. I care but dissociate because all those ignorant enough to not realize all the negative consequences that will come of bringing back the clown are starting from such an intellectually disadvantaged position that lots of outreach and attempts to enlighten will be met with little success. Some of the negative effects will be immediate, but most will be long term, and it's very unlikely those ignorami can/will keep that scope in mind. Dramatic evolution of thought tends to require something major and catalytic to happen in their personal life (their children come out, drugs affecting multiple members in their family, they get laid off after years of loyalty, etc.). I don't really care about what happens to public figures, I'm talking about private life.
I think I may have disclosed my views on intelligence before, but I feel like articulating it again. Ignorance and intelligence are two active pursuits, the former working to protect holding onto personal beliefs (religion or spirituality, xenophobia, sexism, or some other psychological coping mechanism), and the latter to satisfy curiosity, ambition, and other pursuits of filling a void. The point is that being ignorant is not a passive state, and it can require just as much effort as being intelligent. So, trying to reason with someone who has a distorted worldview is itself a battle because they've invested their time and energy into fighting hard to preserve it by filtering out reason and seeking reinforcement.
In the end, there will be people fighting for the interest of the public, like in their actual interest. It won't stop all the problems we'll have to solve as a society in the months, years, and decades to come, but it's nothing new. We're still reconciling with problems created by the Obama administrations, Bush administrations, Clinton administrations, Reagan administrations et al in not so minor ways, and for that sake, the ambiguities present in laws and constitutions from hundreds of years ago. It's just becoming more increasingly sensationalized, and he's just another self-serving dipshit surrounded by other dipshits.
But yeah, I don't really engage with them because it's about the same as talking to a religious nut or a child. Well, it's like that for me no matter what. Every person I meet regardless of political view, profession, gender, race, age, etc. is basically an idiot. The trick is to keep it small so that I don't have to deal with how much of an idiot they are.
I have met people in life who aren't idiots, and they are lifelong friends even if I may only talk to them once a year, five years, decade. Don't ask about yourselves because none of you are even real. Family isn't really examined in with the same lens. However, even if I prefer keeping to myself, I am interacting with many new people regularly, and the clock always starts on having the conversation go from small talk or something esoteric to me immediately screaming inside my head, "how can I get away from this dumb fuck and their fucking dumb fuck excuse of a brain?" Anyways, I think I may have started with the intention of making a point but I kind of lost the thread to venting. Take it home and finish it for homework.
None of us can recreate what we had. No sense in trying to find another community.
I only persisted on reddit in stints for as long as each unique interest I had lasted, but as a whole, I gave up on all of it when they financially pushed out all the third-party apps. Now, I may periodically create a throwaway, but for some reason my unbiased feeds all start to gravitate toward car crashes. Reddit.

Well now, that is a gratifying surprise to see mary here. He was always my favourite weirdo. I would have thought he would have transcended the material plane by now to complain directly to the godhead and kick it squarely in the goddbollocks.
As to the celibacy, that's actually the good news. Never considered it as an option before. The sense of liberation is immense and the opposite sex took up so much space in my skull cavity that I could feel tits growing out of my ears. No more pretence, or lies, or desperation to please an inferior being. My brain has been let off the leash and it now pisses as it pleases. I feel pretty damn good about it. Though, now that mary has reminded me of anal polyps, I might just knock one out for the sake of my arse. I do enjoy a good bowel movement and hope to continue to do so.
It's good to see him back, but I'm not holding out much hope for his continued presence. Men leave. I'm one of them and so was my dad.
mjmacky-
What has wanking got to do with your sphincter?
Never mind.
Perhaps the most disturbing thing we've learned is that Mary has convinced chalice to do it also
In autism there is truth.
Go straight to Hell, Trump.

I don't know if people are so afraid of this escalating into WWIII but an attack against both US and British citizens and nary a peep from the media let alone the governments.

Butchery by proxy. Can't wait to see what colour his orange face turns when China spreads her yellow wings and rains tactical nuclear missiles in a monsoon of righteous imperialism. Sooner than he thinks, I'd wager.
Meg, take your family and get out. You can stay with me until you get yourself sorted. Though, nuclear annihilation might be preferable to living with me. I've heard it said. But I don't mind. I don't take these things personally. It's alright for Kev. Obliteration would be a mercy for all involved. Let's hear Kev's war stories. How many times has he taken up armchairs in defence of his diabolical government?
We'll get a very expensive medium and let him know how the wars are going post-mortem. Duck and cover, boys. We're all going down together.

I'll give you a crash course. Just say cunt and fuck and bollocks and other inventive invective, interspersed with the British King's English. You'll be fluent in no time at all. I suspect your kids might rise to positions of poet laureates over here. They were born with a natural advantage.
I'm considering hounding the geriatric cobwebs out of Kev's ears if he keeps this nonsense up. I think my relentlessness may have slipped his demented, cold, cold mind. I will pursue my points or lack thereof like an Irish Wolfhound with a Republican femur in my slavering jaws. It's blindingly obvious that he bowed out of this one when he was struck with the undeniable fact that Putin is now his ally. All this after a few pages back he humiliated himself by agreeing that Putin was the bad guy. Flip-flopping old fool.
Laughable, but not at all surprising. And my vitriol will only escalate as this war draws closer to my children. This is not a threat, that's his nation's MO. It's just my natural disposition and I'm so very, very bored.
