Zach de le Rocha’s lyrics are betraying his age a bit

Clever way to get a free advert on the beeb
- Comment on I see you 2 weeks ago:
Apparently about 70% as pleasurable and addictive as Cocaine.
- Comment on PUT. HIM. BACK. 4 weeks ago:
As humans in civil society, we’re kinda obligated to not do the bad things though. That’s the danger with becoming rich and/or famous… I don’t believe money corrupts, but reveals our darker impulses, once we feel we could get away with doing them.

I mean, with that top I can let a bit of mystery slide
- Comment on Movie reviews that had me laughing 4 weeks ago:
Apparently it’s not all that bad. There was just a lot of talk about how it was going to be

For all that it’s a trope, I’ve never seen a Pizza Delivery Guy or a Plumber/Handyman themed porn clip.

Oh, is THAT where they’re from? Only they never seem to mention it in any of their songs

Je ne comprend pas
What on earth is going on here? I know the game oblivion, and that is all
- Comment on Help 1 month ago:
My writing words and my speaking words are very different. Writing is much better. All but one of my girlfriends over the last 20 years were chatted up online/email/sms first. IRL, they’d probably have been put off by my verbal hesitation, and my glancing at their knockers ever 10 seconds (a habit I find it impossible to break without intense concentration on not doing it)

My fancy mechanical keyboard has USB ports in it, so not outside the realms of possibility. A 9-inch cable on the mouse less realistic though
- Comment on Looks legit, but can it actually be a real thing? 2 months ago:
Not everyone, but I’d bet the NSA and CIA keep copies

Not sure if that’s ever happened, but Ive certainly read my own messages over and over again for a week.

I really wish these feckers would watch Richard J Murphy on YouTube. Very few of our ministers actually seem to understand taxation
- Comment on You have to watch an ad, OR you can watch an ad so you don't have to watch an ad. 4 months ago:
My kid got into Snake Clash, and the amount of Ads especially of the “watch to win” type are ridiculous. Changed my routers DNS settings just so they could play the game ad free. Sadly, it now means progress is behind a relentless grind, cos you have to manually earn every single upgrade
- Comment on If you are a young person you have no idea how bad everyone and everything smelled until at least the 1990s. 4 months ago:
Went to one in Poland a few years ago, and was amazed - firstly - that you could smoke inside there. Second was how well it was handled: the entire ceiling seemed to be extractor fans - could barely see or smell smoke at all.

Nah, I almost enjoy that. Rolling tobacco is about tolerable. Actual cigarettes make me sick

That surprises me, but noted !

My mum kept the triangular one I made her for over 20 years. Still quite proud of it.
- Comment on The fear of hosting a party at your home 4 months ago:
Depends. If there’s ever been few enough RSVPs Its not worthy of a party, I’ll make a sub-group and suggest something else: cinema trip, pub, or just dinner round mine or something. Yeah, it can feel bad especially when reasons given for not being able to come seem spurious or easily worked around. But then again, sometimes I’m just not in the mood for other people’s parties either.

A long read, but a good un.
For anyone interested in lies, misreporting or misrepresentation in the UKs media, the book Newspeak has some excellent examples.

If they seized firearms, I think the word “suspected” could be dropped from the headline

I’m amazed anyone buys it more than once, with the possible exception of dodgy roadside cafes

It is. Poverty breeds ignorance, and with poverty on the rise…
