    Chuggers

    My brother did it for a while, he was sworn at every day, he was regularly spat at and people on his team were physically assaulted. But yeah, I get it, they're beggars, charity muggers, weirdo's and wankers, or in reality, their mainly students, on minimum wage and out in all weathers trying to...

    The Line - Saudi Arabia

    On the scale they are proposing, most if not all city support structures will sit within the space.

    Glastonbury 2022 (Billie Eilish, Paul McCartney, Kendrick Lamar headlining)

    I'm not saying that the fields were left sparkling clean, because 200,000 people living in tents for 5 days does create a lot of rubbish, but a bit sad of you to use a pic from 2014...

    Formula 1 2022

    I thought the same yesterday, although rather than building into the harbour, i figured they must be able to just buy one or two buildings to widen the track in a certain area in order to facilitate overtaking.

    Electric cars

    Its funny listening to idiots so set against EV's that they spout nonsense arguments just to hide their own lack of knowledge. The guy in that video is a bellmont. I particularly love the "well how do you recycle batteries when they die". What do you think happens when a ICE car gets scrapped...

    Death (not family/friends) impacted on you

    Keith Flint from the Prodigy for me. Prodigy were probably the act that me and the Missus had gone to see most over the past 20 years and they absolutely slayed every gig we saw them at. They had so much energy on stage and "keef" was a massive part of that. There was a bit of selfishness in...

    P & O

    Also, my understanding of contracting something like this out would be that it should fall under TUPE (Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment). Certainly if they were changing from one contractor to another it would mean that all employment including T&CS is protected (in my limited...

    Superbowl - important questions answered

    Nope - Reading Fan we never have nor will win the title. But I tell u what - the Championship is a far more fun league than the PL. Top 5/6 dominating each week / year is a gas fest for everyone not involved.

    Like I said. Go watch Stoke v Bolton and tell me how exciting football always is!

    The photos thread

    My dogs just gone blind. She seems to cope reasonably well but keeps bumping into stuff and occasionally jumps off the couch to crash on the floor. Any advice?

    Superbowl - important questions answered

    Lol all the usual classic cliches come out. The NFL is a great watch, albeit the games are way too long and they could get it all done in about half the time. I love watching it on a Sunday as i can get on with some cooking or washing up with the game on and you never miss anything important...

    Jimmy Carr

    You keep pointing out the structure of the joke as if that somehow makes it all less offensive. A knock knock joke can be offensive if you choose to make it so. You talk about holding up a mirror to the audience and to society, and on this topic I think you give the audience too much credit...

    Jimmy Carr

    I used them very deliberately, and will leave them (unless asked to remove them) in particular because they are jarring. I'm of the opinion that a word can't really be offensive on it's own. It is context that gives words meaning and thus offence.

    Jimmy Carr

    I think this is the thing for me, i'm not offended, i'm not a traveller, but it is offensive and to add unnecessarily targets a minority group who still suffer significant racism with little societal support. Both Romany Gypsies and Irish Travellers are considered specific racial groups and are...

    Jimmy Carr

    Where did I suggest that people shouldn't be allowed to go to comedy? Hint: I didn't. Where did I suggest people shouldn't be allowed to go to offensive comedy? Hint: I didn't. You can go an watch a comedian and laugh and cheer when he suggests that the systematic killing of a group of...

    Cancel culture doesn't exist. Challenging something, criticising something are not the same as cancelling something. HTFH

    Jimmy Carr

    I'd say its more to do with the fact that the interactions you have had with "normal" gypsies or travellers, you didn't even realise were interactions with gypsies or travellers. They were just people you met in a pub, or served you in a shop, or chatted to on the bus.

    Jimmy Carr

    The difference with your example being that Lawyers have never been persecuted to the same extent as say Jews or Gypsies. Certainly there is no real life, in living memory, example of Lawyers being killed in bus/ cliff accidents in the same way that millions of people were killed by the Nazi's...

    Jimmy Carr

    I've read through the thread to this point, and from memory, i don't recall anyone suggesting Jimmy Carr should be sensored or removed. Some people have said it was funny, others said it was not. The main conversation seemed to be about Frankie Boyle. So your post, as usual, is a massive...

    Neil Young demands Spotify remove his music.

    What is Braggs show called - sounds decent?
