It's very useful for organising events and generally keeping in touch with people that life puts distance between, which if we're being charitable does make it a very good tool as you get older.

I bet the young people these days will have a worse time as they get older. You can't organise a piss-up with a mate from your university days using a tik-tok dance and I refuse to believe anyone actually enjoys doing audio/video-notes rather than typing over text despite that apparently being all the rage with the 20-somethings these days.

>You can't organise a piss-up with a mate from your university days using a tik-tok dance
Bees can.

Saw this and thought of you two x

>>71184
How indeed are you supposed to build a pyramid while someone's giving you head?

>>71185
Your mum can't stop me.

>>71177

Can I just say I really like this sex scandal, compared to the last few, because it was blokes what he felt up, so the radio 4 Woman's Hour period power brigade can't make it all about themselves for once. And as it turns out, that makes people take it more seriously.

>>71178
Yeah, see, that's really concerning to remember that this is a Berlusconi-tier government. Not least because he's still fairly popular and as far as I know, has never suffered a day in his life for any reason ever, let alone his debased morallity.

>>71179
YOU TWITTER LOVING SCUM-FUCK, that's a very interesting read. It actually sounds quite familiar to me because of a conversation I had with a friend after Allegra Stratton (pictured here, centre, crying in the Build Engine) sacrificed herself for World-King Johnson I. I began denouncing the Oxbridge-PPE elite and their pally politics, but as my mate had studied PPE at Cambridge he pointed out how the alliances, interests and mindsets actually form in these people's school years. Of course, maybe he's one of them and was trying to throw me off the scent, didn't want the likes of me poking around where I don't belong... but given how he's basically normal and we mostly attended the same schools, I believe he, and your Twitterhead, are correct. It's horrible!

I remember reading some time ago that something like two-thirds of all wealth in Italy had been controlled by the same families since the fourteen-hundreds. I can't find the article now, so maybe the details are wrong, but the point is it's very hard not to feel maddeningly angry or utter hopeless much of the time. It's like we're living in the Bart Simpson universe and somewhere beyond time and space there's a Hugo Simpson universe we were supposed to be in, but everything got mixed up. Dr Hibbert sent us the wrong reality.

>>71180
I can't get into this right now. I can't do gender politics and face up to the fact that Britain is governed by a cabal of incestuous hyper-poshos dating back to the time of the Druids. Meet outside the sociology department tomorrow, ten-past-three sharp.

Forgot to attach the image, ruining the flow of the thread because I can't delete posts still, for reasons murkier than this government.

>>71182

Tories cut funding for the delete feature back in 2018. You just have to report yourself to a mod now, like a homeless person getting locked up to spend a night in the warmth of the cells.

CHRIS PINCHER TOUCHED ME HERE.

Remember when they found Richard Thee Third's skellington all smashed up in a Leicester Car Park? I bet he was dug up and killed all over again because of the local parchments' scurrilous accusations of being a male fisherperson and trying to put abortion rights in the Magna Carta.

Whatever really happened, at least it led to an amusing double entendre and a top choon:

>>71168

>the Magna Carta
>the

Sort it out m8.

>>71169

Apologies. "Ye" Magna Carta.

>>71168

This one was better.

>>71171

Sometimes people show you something that you thought you had missed at the time it happened, and you realise that you missed nothing. Bit like histrey innit

>>71145
Are you saying he won't actually post the reply?

>>71145

I think it was sick, not shit.

>>71155
If so, then actually I do remember that one. There might even have been more than one.

>>71155

the one i'm thinking of was definitely poo

Nadine Dorries is a massive retard but she's super hot and I would be willing to entertain her shit opinions if it meant I could do sex with her.

>>71013
Off to Guilty Would with you!

Vorderman off to go paddleboarding.

Vorderman with her sandbags.

Sandbags with their vorderman.

>>71146
Who do these people think they are, the Lib Dems?

what do you reckon happened to les dennis?

>>71150
He was on the most recent episode of Would I Lie To You? Unless that was Keith Chegwin. I struggle to tell them apart, but I think it was Les Dennis.

>>71150
I don't really know!

>>71151
Cheggers died a few years ago, so it's unlikely he was on Would I Lie To You recently.

>>71150

Panto, mostly.

Well, they were right about the wages.

One of the worst things about the housing crisis is that even when you get on the property ladder your home is still ugly and likely sitting on a Barratt housing development. I can practically hear the A-road through the image.

Maybe if Herman had pulled his finger out and made a Directive on affordable housing instead of how bendy my banana is we wouldn't have left.

>>71143
Not if you work in the public sector it's fucking not.

Haha, yes, I remember the 70s. Offal and jam sandwiches, dad dressing up as a gollywog for crimbo and no women in pubs, them were the days.

They might want to be careful with that reference.

Bloody Labour MPs, joining the strikes. Bloody other Labour MPs, not joining the strikes. Why can't they oppose / not oppose the strikes?

>>71135
If one (1) opinion forms in Keir Starmer's head it could destabalise his positronic matrix and kill him in seconds.

He's only gone on TV naming James connelly as his political hero, the fucking idiot.

The right wing press will have a field day with that. What is it with British lefties constantly giving their opponents open goals?

Well it's not a person, so no. Not that I don't think even a confused border terrier wouldn't make a better PM than our present one, but I don't want to give the Tories the race to the bottom they so desperately want.

Yes.

Democracy is an over-idealised dead end, and we would be better off ruled by technocratic management software programmed to allocate resources and maintain infrastructure based on deep learning algorithms designed to predictively model the best net outcomes for all people, independent of ideological motivations, regardless of social class, race or gender.

Some people might not like it, but fuck them, but we can send them to live in Australia or something where they can have all the twitter arguments they want and enjoy living under shite incompetent human governments who don't do anything, while the rest of us transcend to a higher plane of unity and scientific advancement.

AI is shit too. We should just alternate between governments. Let them take it in turns. They won't implement foolish populist bollocks because they don't need to win votes, and they won't turn massively corrupt because they will spend half the time in opposition. And because they know they will win the next "election" each time, they can plan what to do when they are in power.

We could even have a method like the Conservative Party has for its MPs now, where everyone submits letters asking for the other party to take over, and if more than a certain percentage of the country does so, then the changeover happens earlier. But that might be democracy then and all my brilliant plans would be ruined.

I wish Raab would follow Dorries' lead and whore himself on a competitive TV show. The Krauts already have a template that won't require much translation: Schlag den Raab. It might take fewer than six episodes to find out if he's actually good at anything except being a fucking mong though.

>>71126
The older I get the more in favour I am of sortition. Which, I will add, is what Athenians originally meant by democracy given all candidates are equal as opposed to the corrupt oligarchy that arises with voting.

Give us a driving interest in making every citizen aware of and capable of participating in the system, officials with real skin in the game of what happens to the rest of the population. Or at the very least the candidates we deserve who will hang all the paedophiles, make the anniversary of Dianna's death a national holiday and have political pundits turn to reading entrails to divine the future makeup of government.

Look how many of them are doctors and nurses. That requires a bit of training at least.

>>71103
Yet none of them will do non-penetrative surgery.

>>71093
What do you mean "instead of" hipsters? Are people not still hating on hipsters?

>>71094
I don't think hipsters exist anymore. They're certainly not bête noire du jour.

Woke snowflakes.

Either evangelist christian korean youtuber people, non-binary people, or people who hate those people, depending on who you fraternise with.

>>71096
>>71097

Almost. The truth is they are exactly the same people.

if you scratch the paint and look just under the surface of the average pronoun snowflake, you will find it's just plain hipster underneath. being a hipster was about being cooler than everyone else and staying ahead of the curve in your circle of urban, gentrified, pretend bohemian mates. it was an arms race to see who could grow the silliest moustache or wear the tackiest jumper.

same goes for being a vegan pansexual demi-spirit genderfluid relationship anarchist with a feeld profile. it's a highly advanced form, barely recognisable, but the dna is 100% pure hipster.

>>71083

I wouldn't expect any different from that mucky Dutch lot.

Nobody has mentioned yet that the statue also has three arms. Perhaps that was the real message all along.

>>71088
Two and a half.

>>71084
Despite posting myself, I'm not actually involved in this discussion and was merely trying to effect more shit-hurling by pointing out the existence of the statue to the person who was saying OP was trolled to tears.

Have fun figuring out that third arm.

>>71091
If the statue was as good bait in its original context, the troll account wouldn't have had to recontextualise it. QED.The third arm is because the person is merged with another.
