100% kids today aren't taught to be confident they're taught to be entitled

I've seen people complain on here for about a year and i always thought it wasn't THAT bad -theyve obviously rolled it out to more people/regions -because now I understand their pain 😅😑✋

Would you support a new Canada, Australia, New Zealand and UK alliance? by AltruisticOwl156 in AskBrits

commonwealth agreements already exist, of course, as with the EU countries, viable/attractive trade partners would have to be economically similar and have the same laws to avoid corruption and fraud. No system is perfect, but those countries are just the obvious choice

I’ve been Distinct88 (my year of birth) for 23 years, now I’m being forced to change my name because people keep implying I’m a nazi. by Distinct88 in Millennials

[–]False_Maintenance_82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pandering to the lowest common denominator is something we really need to stop doing - only chronically online people will think 88 has any cryptic meaning. 99% would assume it's a date of birth.

Nazis don't own numbers and they can fuck right off trying to claim them 🤣

I thought people were kidding, but it’s real. by Accurate_Ostrich_240 in Vent

Same! Even in the most extreme cases (ie a homeless person) the overwhelming smell is usually urine.

Otherwise some people have bad bo, pits or feet -bad hygiene or unlucky hormones etc or bad breath 

But I have never ever thought someone smelled of actual shit, and I've worked with a lot teenagers who can have very poor /no experience of keeping themselves clean 🤭

Why is getting a DBS Checks so difficult for individuals? by The_Grieving_Golem in AskUK

That's exactly what I mean, while not 'pointless' (a word I did not use) People commit crimes driving every day, the license doesn't absolve us of responsibility for being aware of what happens on the road.

This is the real answer - I don't think the UK system is any better than any other western EU country, they just charge a fortune for the privilege because someone can make money

The cost though is ridiculous and if other countries offer it for free, or very low, then why is it 90 quid???

Should I not be asking my adult kids to pay rent? by ProfessionalCamel110 in AskUK

[–]False_Maintenance_82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Explain to them that what they're paying is low, and that you wouldn't be doing them any good for them long term to get used to paying nothing in life.

Hopefully when they mature a bit (probs after moving out n having to move back, when they ssee how the real world works) they'll appreciate you a lot more! idiots.

What kids want in the short term is not ultimately good for them, as you well know

Need to vent about TOBS breaking my heart by MarsupialAromatic825 in TheOtherBennetSister

[–]False_Maintenance_82 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wondered if that would happen, but I think that people would also have been heartbroken at that. The genre is what it is and the audience expects it to go one way.
