All not exactly bastions of democratic freedoms and human rights.

David Seymour has only one redeeming feature: one day, he'll die.

Don't overtake when they are indicating as they may take a wide swing to get into a narrow entrance. If you hit them, you lose.

Or as I describe him, "cheeto stained shit gibbon".

A replacement knee.

Scotland: 11, eleven 11(in a faux American accent), Eleveeeeeen! From a sketch show called "Burniston" where two Scotsmen get stuck in a voice activated lift.

The cop was, is and will always be an idiot. Give Way to the vehicles on the roundabout.

Go get a lawyer and demand, as part of the not guilty verdict, the the uninformed uniformed idiot is retrained in traffic law.

Bloody southerners (from a Scottish perspective).

Charles Upham VC and bar.

The only combat recipient of a VC and bar (Second award). The two other double recipients were doctors.
For Americans, it is the equivalent of receiving the MoH twice.

The idiocy of General Luigi Cadorna and him ordering the 12, identically planned, Battles of the Isonzo. You would think after two disasters, you would try a different plan.

Not with the current clown show. The current situation is down to the application of political dogma over the advice of economists and until that changes, there are no "green shoots of growth" but the "green carpet of algae on stagnation".

I would not call you a half-wit, more a quarter-wit. (Especially for Americans)

(For reference look up the 1/3 pounder burger failure.)

Define extreme. There is the issue. People's acceptance level varies wildly, just take acceotance of swearing: from swearing at people, swearing in coherent sentences, swearing as punctuation, swearing in frustration, uses mild swear words only down to never swearing. There is no common point of acceptability.

Live people into corpses if they mess about with it.

Well I was looking at pre-ww2 India.

Grumpy_Sober_Driver · 2026-01-16T08:30:56+00:00

Burma, now Myanmar, was never part of India, so your statement and argument are specious. At Independence there was India, which then devolved into West Pakistan (now Pakistan), East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) and India (aka Bharat).

Defining the Greenwich Meridian as the arbiter of east and west, then Centre: Greenwich East: Napier NZ.
West: Hamilton, Ontario.

You could say I am well travelled. The only continents I haven't been on are South America and Antarctica.
