Blimey, maybe their production quality varies based on which factory it was built in (or Euro NCAP have better quality control regs), the one I’ve been in was lovely!

Everyone circlejerks about this online but every IRL owner I’ve actually spoken to say it’s the best car they’ve ever owned.

Quick, someone print out and photocopy this photo
- Comment on Time for a road trip 4 weeks ago:
It was very popular in the mid-2000s but I don’t think I’ve heard anyone use it since then. I’d say somewhere in the middle.

“As the crow flies” is a pretty common expression on this very isle
- Comment on Anon thinks the French are posers 4 weeks ago:
Maybe. There’s also “The Commonwealth” which includes them but which the USA explicitly opted out from (by gaining independence from the British Empire before it was cool).
- Comment on Anon thinks the French are posers 4 weeks ago:
Interesting. I’d probably call that “the anglosphere”, Anglo-Saxon is specifically the pre-Norman-conquest residents of what is now England.
- Comment on Anon thinks the French are posers 4 weeks ago:
Do you use it differently to “English”?

Anglo-Saxon cultural elements
You did your best to stamp those out back in 1066
- Comment on Im flyinf to the USA from england 5 weeks ago:
It’s a single country with a single currency, a single government, a single history, and a single language. Yes there’s a lot of variance within the country, but it’s really nothing compared to visiting Europe.

- Comment on Britain will rejoin the EU within 15 years, former Brussels chief predicts 1 month ago:
Well the other thing is that it’s very difficult to instantly tell from a pseudonymous internet comment whether the writer is a normal person up for a civilised discussion or a troll just looking to wind people up. And no offence, but you sounded pretty pro-brexit so not unreasonable to suspect you were a troll!
- Comment on Britain will rejoin the EU within 15 years, former Brussels chief predicts 1 month ago:
Sealioning is a type of trolling or harassment that consists of pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence, often tangential or previously addressed, while maintaining a pretense of civility and sincerity, and feigning ignorance of the subject matter.
Whether or not you’re intending to do this your comments do come off a little bit like that. I don’t really like the term that much as people often use it to dismiss any further discussion, but it could be why the other commenters don’t want to chat.
- Comment on Pretty sound reasoning here. 1 month ago:
Alright, alright, the shurethra if you want to get technical
- Comment on Britain will rejoin the EU within 15 years, former Brussels chief predicts 1 month ago:
Looking at this and your other comments I think they just don’t want to engage with the sealion

This has got to be bait, it’s like a yank wrote every point deliberately wrong

The yanks were fed up of being the geopolitical bad guys and the only other counties they could think of were the UK and France

You’re allowed to say fucking on the internet

Yeah, afraid so
- Comment on Preference 2 months ago:
I believe individually packaged tablets actually do help reduce overdoses because you can’t just chug the whole bottle in one go. Yes it’s more wasteful but it does save lives.
