- Comment on Switching to a four-day week ‘could save councils £1bn a year’ 14 hours ago:
My council does fuck all as it is. Cutting it down to fuck all four days a week doesn’t quite make sense to me.
- Comment on People assume I can't speak Welsh because I'm not white 1 day ago:
there is literally no other way to interpret it
There’s literally another way hat I’ve explained to you. 😅
I know what “innit” means.
Oh good so you can then at least understand the tone or contextual background for what I wrote in the first place wasn’t meant to even be serious.
Not really sure why you’re arguing about this. Sounds like you just want to pick a fight where there is none. Quite sad.
- Comment on People assume I can't speak Welsh because I'm not white 1 day ago:
Imagine how cynical you have to be to think the worst of everything you read online. There’s no tactics. It was a joke. If you don’t think it’s funny that’s cool. But to concoct the narrative in your mind that you have speaks more about your own insecurities than anything else.
Maybe next time you read something online try not to assume the worst when you don’t understand the context or the words. Hint: in the UK saying “innit” isn’t meant to evoke seriousness. Have you ever seen Ali G? Probably not I’m guessing.
Now that I’ve had to explain the joke to you (regardless of whether you find it funny or not) are you able to answer my question? Why does your mind race to assume the worst?
- Comment on People assume I can't speak Welsh because I'm not white 1 day ago:
Serious question. Why was the first thought that came to your mind “Gee I think that person is being serious what a stupid analogy let me tell them”. Like, why does your mind go there?

People assume I have listened to Nirvana because I wear their t-shirts. Mad, innit?

You know what. In the morning then original title doesn’t sound so bad. Haha. My late night brain was like WTF is happening?!

I’m sorry I’m not high enough for that title. LOL. WTF is it trying to say?

As usual we learn more from the comment section on the article than the article itself 😂. Have a read, they’re much better than the article.

Where are the signs they refer to? Or is that the joke 🤔?

The real question is, how on earth was there a photographer who got me as I was arriving, and was still there at 11 o’clock at night?
No mate, the real question is why were you friends with, taken money, and passed secrets to a nonce?
Fucking disgrace of a man.
- Comment on SUVs are making Britain’s potholes worse, say scientists 4 days ago:
You can’t stop boomers buying SUVs. It’s as much as a status symbol to them as Adidas trainers are to kids (I might be showing my age here do kids still care about Adidas?).
Tax the fuck out of heavier vehicles. Put that money back into the roads. Why most of the inner city streets needs a mini tractor riding up and down them is beyond me. But it’s not going to stop. So deal with the problem better.

- Comment on NHS ordered to share patient data with US ‘spy-tech’ firm 2 weeks ago:
The company’s founder, Peter Thiel, donated $1.25m to Donald Trump’s election campaign.
Thiel, like Musk, supported Trump for one reason: to further his business interests. Thiel is just less loud mouthy about it and hasn’t (yet) fallen out with Trump. This is what Keir Starters means when he says he’s negotiated a “trade deal” with the US. He has signed your data away to Palantir. This isn’t going to be reversed. There’s nothing the UK can do about it now and Keir doesn’t want to upset Donald more than he already has.

- Comment on Transgender girls told to leave Girlguiding groups by September 3 weeks ago:
There’s (slightly) more context in the linked article. Basically they want to exclude boys because they’re called the Girl Guides. They can only do that lawfully under the Equality Act that recently said this was only designed to cover what you were born as. At least that’s their logic.
I don’t understand why they can’t ignore that unless they’re being pressured by people who hate trans people on a threat of being sued? Not very clear from the reporting.
