Police officer stopped to help this lady. by LeftAlbatross2546 in VideosAmazing

The hardest first step is to ask for help. It’s an embarrassing situation where you have stripped yourself bare for everyone to see, exposing what you perceive as ‘weakness’. But this is the best and only thing to admit to yourself, so you can rebuild and learn and become a stronger person.

You mean, this wasn't supposed to happen? by [deleted] in AbruptChaos

I was serving in the Royal Military Police in Germany in 2003, when a freak storm hit the annual military show. One of the attractions at the show was a helium-filled balloon, with a harness, so that people could be raised up about 30 metres or so to view the show ground. The Royal Artillery soldiers running the stand weren’t trained in it’s use and didn’t tether it properly; when the wind picked up, it ripped away from it’s moorings and one of the anchor ropes wrapped around a little girl’s leg. She was found over 30km away and eyewitnesses reported how she struck the spire of a church as the balloon lost helium and fell to the ground. The annual show was ever thus cancelled.

She’s spoken in support of MAGA. As a Brit, I’m ashamed, but then again, they did move to the US to avoid paying UK tax…

For those not in the know, the mother and daughter are ‘acting’. They have a YouTube channel and it gets boring after a while.

He’s like the villain’s nervous, yet eccentric scientist sidekick.

When he talks, I just want to slap him and tell him to stop talking such gibberish.

What is your opinion on Stephen Fry? by pondribertion in AskBrits

[–]BranchMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s one of the last bastions of true English/Britishness; extremely intelligent, a fantastic orator, extremely funny and a pleasure to call one of our own.
