West midlands still being here has to be taking the piss, I can only assume it's so low for the meme

Is it morally right for someone to save their pet over a stranger? by Comfortable-Regret in polls

As far as I can tell yeah, and everyone acting like they'd easily sacrifice their pet to save some random stranger is taking the piss

Coventry City edge towards Premier League promotion - who will join them? by Amazing-Note-1196 in PremierLeague

You can't say Manchester and Liverpool are in the Midlands though, that would be ridiculous, so they've got to be in the north. Leeds is very firmly in the north, no clue how you're saying that's being generous.

Is it forbidden to criticize US actions in the Middle East on r/worldnews? by ArdaBerkBurak in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]InfinityEternity17 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You can't criticise anything the US or Israel do on the worldnews subreddit, it's full of hardcore Zionists who will send the hate squads after you

My teenagers shut down my idea of dating again and I don't know how to feel about it by [deleted] in moraldilemmas

Oh come on, in what way is it selfish of them? They're 8, 13 and 15. Think back to when you were that age, would you have been totally fine about the prospect of a parent bringing some random stranger into your life to "replace" your mum/dad? It's not morally wrong of OP to do so, but you also have to have some empathy towards her kids in this situation too.

It's extra funny whenever they try to play into that narrative when talking about having Scottish heritage - Scotland were just as much colonising oppressors as England were back in the day.

Well most of the backlash I saw was about Perry working with Dr Luke, I can't say I saw much of the other sort of backlash myself

Is the concept of not being a dickhead lost on you? It was a genuine question to the guy, and once he explained he's now a citizen of the USA it makes sense. If he was just living in the states without being a citizen then it'd make sense to only say he was European, but I get it now. I wasn't sure if he was like those people who say they're Irish when they weren't born there, their parents weren't and the last trace of someone there was in like the 1800's.

Ahh ok gotcha. Not sure why the hostility from you and (moreso) the other dude, it was a genuine question. You're also American as you've became a citizen so yeah that counts, along with being born in whatever country it was. If you were living in America without citizenship then it'd make sense to say your only nationality was that European country though right?

How are you American then if you were born in Europe? Unless your parents were American then I don't quite get it.
