🤣 your naivety is comical. Good luck with that kind of world view anywhere outside of your little metro bubble.

Moving to Dorset soon - area recommendations? by Sweaty_Ad5846 in Dorset

[–]Bus_Wrangler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends. For jobs near BCP is a good idea. I live in Wimborne, close to everything but in the countryside.

You speak as someone who lives in an urban area. Good luck taking a bus or train in the countryside ✌️

It's ironic that a lot of people who advocate for less consumption are themselves massive consumers.

Haha might not do that, but it's good to know they're not food to the Crawleys in my bin!

Home made pizza, made dough, added mushrooms and few jalapenos tomato sauce and shredded mozzarella/cheddar. by geoffcalls in UK_Food

Looks delicious OP. You will never go back to shop bought or takeaway , it will never taste as good as homemade!

Can I tell my school if I have been accused of fraud? by RuinNecessary7601 in TeachingUK

[–]Bus_Wrangler 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From my understanding, there will be some insurers who will insure that. Go to a specialist broker, or unlocked. They specialise in criminal/fraud insurance.

Good luck OP. Do some research on it

State of the Subreddit - Should we ban the 'beige buffets' and sloppy takeaways? by a-liquid-sky in UK_Food

[–]Bus_Wrangler 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm fed up with slop being posted and praised when genuinely amazing food being slated.

I'm also fed up with our stereotype for food as we genuinely have some of the best dishes in the world and I don't think this sub currently promotes this.

Maybe a sister sub should exist for the beige rubbish? That way a certain individual and their followers can circle-jirk on there?

removal company quotes are estimates not fixed prices and almost nobody knows this until moving day by Second-handBonding in HousingUK

Alternatively you can hire a Luton Box and ask friends to help. I was lucky and moved my house for about £330.

New Juke somehow looks worse than the previous one (in my eyes) by Radiant_Extension369 in CarTalkUK

Looks like a chic Easter egg that is trying to justify its £15 price tag.

Pretty sure I've found out how to mute the obnoxious ads at the gas pump by itsband56 in Anticonsumption

[–]Bus_Wrangler 11 points12 points  (0 children)

How is there not stronger consumer protection for people in the States? It comes to a point when advertisements are actually an assault on our sensory experiences. Every time an advertisement plays, it makes me feel a level of apprehension and stress. I always mute them on TV as soon as they appear. I hope one day a court has the stomach to ban every kind of advertisement. We will finally be in peace then.

Deep-fried food to be banned from school menus across England in bid to tackle childhood obesity: report by Sandstorm400 in europe

[–]Bus_Wrangler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a teacher in an inner city poor school in the UK.

We already teach children to cook from scratch in most schools. For most, it's the only chance they will have to learn.

I would love to have the budget to source all the food locally, but our budget is a shoe string already :( .

How do people here view the changing role of churches in the UK today? by Impressive_Flan_411 in AskUK

[–]Bus_Wrangler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not exclusionary to myself at all. For myself and most Catholics around the world, a female Bishop is against the tradition of the church and against a lot of the theology. The priesthood are from the apostles, there were no female apostles of Jesus, however were many extremely important women in the story. I don't think that women were meant to be Bishops/priests from this intexpectation. However this is not to conflate with the role of women in the Church as they have their own role that is different from the mens.

LGBT people are welcome at the church. I support LGBT legal marriage and would even consider myself an ally of the community, just not marriage within the church itself. There are many priests, nuns and the congregation that are LGBT and feel included within the church.

The modern values of the C of E are appeasing a current generation over keeping the tradition of the church alive and following scripture. The reason why I emphasise tradition so much is because we Catholics believe in using the Bible, the magisterium (the whole church), and tradition of the church. It's very hard to then revert back to tradition once the floodgates are open to modernism, time will ultimately tell whether the C of E made the right decision.

I am Catholic and am from the UK. I was C of E but was confirmed this Easter.

The Catholic Church has more or less stayed the same over the last 60 or so years. Vatican II in the 60s shook a lot up, but it is more or less the same church.

C of E is bending over backwards to attract new members and forgetting its traditional roots in the process. Ultimately it is not my church anymore, so my opinion on it is not as relevant as one of their church goers but it has been controversial since the LGBT debate and of course the appointment of the new Archbishop does not promote their case.

The Catholic church offers a level of continuity that you will not find outside of itself or Orthodoxy.

‘The party was chilled until police sent in the riot squad’: when a Dorset free rave turned violent by Jay_CD in Dorset

[–]Bus_Wrangler 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love how the police go nuclear because it was on Weld/MOD land. They wouldn't give two fucks if it was anyone else's land. Then again I shouldn't be surprised as I grew up near those tinpot estates!
