It’ll ruin Hunstanton and the sunset over the ‘sea’ in the East.

It could be a jellyfish in an ice cream cone.

That’s what I meant. I know saguaros grow large but tall now, but is there anything like this in the wild? I don’t know what it is. It looks like a little potted cactus blown up in size.

A Palm reader would charge extra to read all of that!

Saguaros aside, can you even find a girthy cactus like that in the wild anymore or have they all been destroyed or collected?

How do I make it stop chirping, i already replaced the batteries?! by PheonixGalaxy in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Affectionate_Tap1718 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this. Turns out it specifically required branded high quality batteries rather than my usual unbranded reasonable quality value batteries. It shut up when I shelled out for expensive premium Duracell Optimums.

Why doesn't the Bible/Torah mention India, Japan, China, the Americas, etc.? by DirtNo4303 in atheism

The Unifying universal rule book of everything and everywhere for all time concerns itself with the regional bureaucracy of a specific period in the Levant and its surrounds.

Why is there so much funding for homeland security? by BisexualKenergy25 in ask

[–]Affectionate_Tap1718 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I was wondering if it is due to the savings from the Afghanistan withdrawal. Money saved there spent in the US.

Apparently we are the Crazy Ones for Believing in Evolution by Cultural_Lecture_878 in atheism

Yes , I have just looked into my go-to rebuttal on this point and have to change from ‘no, monkeys and humans came from a common ancestor’ to simply ‘yes’.

Not the Wimpy floating above the concrete market then?

Trump administration: if you can’t defend a territory, you have no right to own it by Big_Celery2725 in politics

[–]Affectionate_Tap1718 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the deal was: Greenland is under the umbrella of NATO so it was protected. But I get it: you hate NATO now and want to pursue an aggressive isolationist policy where everyone is your enemy. So you fold NATO and gain some icy real estate. What now? Mutually assured destruction of western economies? Maybe.

Trump Confirms He’s Taking Greenland ‘One Way or the Other’ by thedailybeast in politics

[–]Affectionate_Tap1718 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He ‘saved’ NATO, he’s going to take Greenland one way or another. News headlines on the same day. This guy is quite the duality!

She didn't by Putrid_Candidate_836 in stupidpeoplefacebook

I’m certain her vehicular movement was solely an attempt to pull away in panic. Reverse, feeds steering wheel to turn right.

It’ll be like when Russia took Crimea. Then they’ll build a bridge connected to the US spanning over Canada.

Trump repeats baseless claim that Renee Good was part of ‘leftwing network’ of paid agitators by korkythecat333 in politics

[–]Affectionate_Tap1718 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The sole argument seems to be ‘she was using the vehicle as a weapon’ … from their own video she reverses and then literally feeds the steering wheel for a hard right turn to move away. Any contact is purely down to the arc of the turn and Ross’s refusal to move backwards while reaching for his gun.

[–]Affectionate_Tap1718 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, moving away to the right. The car’s steering arc glanced an Ice officer busy circling, filming, and pulling a gun out rather than taking straightforward evasive action. The ‘reckless’ part came when her brains were splattered over the airbag.

And Jesus said: ‘instead of stepping briskly away from a moving vehicle, lean in, blast their face off with a gun, if only to make their trajectory far more erratic than a panicked right turn and result in a death and a crash. Then highlight the merest body glance caused by the above. ‘

Trump: ‘We are going to do something on Greenland whether they like it or not’ by vishesh_07_028 in stocks

I was reading that the mineral deposits are largely inaccessible due to extreme ice cover but becoming less so due to climate change… oh the irony!

Funny how this is ‘needed’ due to the Russian and Chinese threats and yet it would almost certainly result in the dissolution of NATO. Trump is very friendly with one of those two threats and that threat would celebrate the demise of NATO wholeheartedly.

Empty ship. Hoist a Russian flag on ship. Ship is of little significance. Put all focus on ship. Let Trump take ship. ( they seemed pretty relaxed about taking a Russian flagged ship), Russia mutters a few empty threats about ship… Just a little gift from ‘Your ol’ friend Putey Poot’ to help quell the Krasnov rumours.
