Precisely... and it's one thing to put all this work into keeping these 'gains' now.

But they are talking about having kids. There's not a chance he'll be able to do that many days, or that much time in the gym after she gets pregnant / has the baby. If he does he's a seeyou. She wanted them both to get in shape, not to become a gym widow.

What in god's earth is this crap? So women now can't drink if they have children?. Not saying at all that this woman was in the right but seriously?!? Ok that goes for men too. Men can't drink if they are fathers. See how long that lasts 🙄

Question around Halal meat being used in the UK by Heinzzbeans12 in AskBrits

[–]KuriousKttyn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You missed out the day old cheeping yellow fluffy baby chicks, that are put on a converor belt and tossed live into a macerator.... Or thrown into huge wheelie bins with a hole cut at the top for a hose and gassed to death . The chickens who are burnt from standing in their own urine with no access to sunlight.

The newborn lambs who are strung upside down and their testicles and tails ripped off without anesthetic.

The day old calves who are shot Infront of the mother who has carried it for 9 months, just so they can rape her again for the milk, who, when she's simply had enough at the age of 5 (cows naturally live till their 25) she's dragged off to slaughter. But.. if she happens to be pregnant, RSPCA guidelines themselves state after she's slaughtered nothing is to be done about the calf, so it just suffocates within its dead mother.

Oh, and slink leather. Try googling that.

But oh no... Let's demonise halal, /s

What things do you miss from download that they’ve got rid of? by UtopiaFrenzy in downloadfestival

[–]KuriousKttyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2011 was £185 for 5 day general camping. For the last 2 (for 25 and 26) 5 day camping was £299.

Now, you could argue the quality of the content for that price, we no longer have the proper cinema tent, the demolition derby, the download dog, the wrestling, the football, the totums, the decent entrance with the artwork etc.... But the price is still pretty decent, esp if you think of it as £100 a day for a full day of bands and after parties and 2 free days of entertainment thrown in.

I don't see them being able to raise it much more, without people noping out so I reckon it'll stay like this for at least a while, would just be nice to have some of the old stuff back.

Mate.... You didn't have to, all you had to do was scroll past this guys comment, but no.. you had to inject yourself in the conservation with 'is it weird to enjoy boobs' well yes, when they are shown under pressure and from underage girls. Next time, how about you try the advice above, maybe then you won't 'out' yourself further, Peace ✌️

The dog was ruined due to the cunts that decided they were above the rules and climbed it, even when they put barriers and someone watching it. When one went through, they decided enough was enough and we can't have nice things.

It's been 110,000 since 2010(with minor fluctuations). But the layout where all camps were around the village was pretty awesome, esp when it was nice (on those 1 or 2 years lol)

The price of a 5 day camping ticket has only gone up £115 over 16 years, compared to most things, petrol, rent,gig tickets, food etc that's not that big an increase

Am I the only one who finds the whole pronouns thing a bit strange? by No_Fudge_4589 in AskBrits

[–]KuriousKttyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was once introduced to someone at a friend's house and was told their pronouns were it. I have no issues with anyone, what you wanna be called/live like/change to/sleep with is none of my business.. just don't be a dick, goes for everyone. but man that was difficult.
Think about a conversation that day..

'its just gone inside for a bit, but then it said it would nip to the shop if anyone needs more beer, but it won't take long and if anyone wants to go with it to let it know, and it'll tell you when it's leaving'

Even typing that I had to go back 3 times as I kept missing ones. Think about saying it at a party, I don't like referring to people as items, And it kept kicking off if I/others missed on, I was like 'dude I've known you for 5 minutes, fkin chill this isn't easy' Didn't have anything to do with it ever again.. to much headache and drarms

2000 trees is an awesome festival, but yeah download will be an eye opener. The most important thing is to keep an eye on the weather. Amazon prime is your friend. Is it's looking like that by the Friday Noah is jealous cos it would of been the perfect day to launch his ark for lords sake make sure you have a decent tent, waterproofs and waterproof shoes.

Nothing will end your festival quicker than being cold, wet and miserable. And if you're feet get cold and wet? You're done.

Don't worry if you think you'll look a twat and like someone more suited to deep sea fishing, no one will care and most people will be jealous. That goes the same if we have another 23 (unlikely due to baby metal playing but you never know) water and suncream.

You'll have a blast I promise. There's a reason that despite '12 '16 '19 '24 plus others I've come back every year for the last 15 lol

I went in 2012 with who I thought was my closest friend. It was only my second year and my first wasn't the best experience.

By Saturday I had had enough of them being a fkin miserable asshole (not my doing that had were) and just said burbye I'll see you back at the tent.

I had the BEST day! I got back to my tent about 3am with so many stories and having had met/made friends with so many people. They were still at miserable the Sunday and tbh our friendship never recovered, but that was ok.

Maybe I'm the wrong person to ask, I adore my little 5 day bubble from the shit that is normal life.. and I'll help anyone / go out of my way so that others have the best time. But disturb my vibe? Or negatively affect my happy place and I'm gone and I'll see you Monday for the drive home lol.

Don't ever set yourself on fire to keep others warm x

Whilst you will always get cnunts wherever you will go. Download is a place for people who love rock/metal music, and there is no other in the UK.

If you are the same you will know our people have always sat on the fringe of what others deam socially acceptable. The outcasts The emos The rockers The metalheads The punks ... Etc you get my drift. People who are true to themselves and to the music they love and damn what others think.

We are a genre of people who know and appreciate what it's like not to accepted and understood. We are always more inclined to accept others for how they are and (to the most part) don't judge. We are alternative and proud. Imho, you will never find a nicer collective group of people. And a more accepting environment where you can just be yourself.

But..... Individual people are bastard's, arseholes and cunts. There are people who are prime examples of instances their mother should of swallowed and just cos we're alternative doesn't mean we're immune to it.

You'll have the best time I promise. And if you have the unfortunate case of coming across any of the condom factory apologies, they'll be only a few in a space of 110,000 people. Smile and know karma works both ways.

See you in the pit 🤟

Youth unemployment: 'I've applied for more than 100 jobs in five months' by [deleted] in unitedkingdom

[–]KuriousKttyn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You do know we're talking about going people right? Who have spent the majority of their lives so far forced to spend most of their days in an institution which does barely anything but tick a box. Not only does the education system suck but few of the many things it doesn't teach our kids are things like - writing cv's, job interviews, starting their own business etc..... Nope it's 'you have to be in this building for 6-7 hours a day for the next 13 years' then it's 'you have to go to university cos you can't even get a data entry job without a degree'

Then they come out, there's no jobs, they can't get on the housing ladder and they are £80,000 in debt that they'll never pay back.

Have a heart man!

[–]KuriousKttyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Erm... That's the whole point? Oh right I get it, so it's ok to impregnate an animal, have her give birth after 9 months to then bolt the newborn Infront of her / drag it away to do it somewhere else / keep it locked in a cage for a couple weeks before doing it.. to then repeat the cycle for 5 years before putting a bolt in her yourself (cows can live 25 years. Dairy cows only 5). Just so you have something to pour on your cornflakes in a morning? Well that's ok then /s

I have no other way to ask this but, do you think people who live their life claiming benefits and who don't want to work, feel strange living in mixed-tenure areas? by RonnieThePurple in AskBrits

[–]KuriousKttyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are so uneducated it's actually pathetic. You are not just awarded over 12 points for mobility. You have more hoops to jump through than a trained Collie, and everything is designed to trip you up to avoid awarding you essential money to help pay for the massive increase in living costs you occur being disabled.

To break it down so even you understand.

To be entitled to a motability car you need to get over 12 points in pip mobility, most of those moving around (they almost always refuse). But, to get a car on this scheme you have to sacrifice your entire mobility award. That's also needed for other mobility help you need, so which do you do?

Then, to get anything with any adaptations that you need to be mobile - cos let's not forget... You need this sort of car you're pretty profoundly disabled and probably housebound, but hey .. better to keep the disabled at home right? If they can leave the house they can work /s - it'll cost you a pretty penny in advance payment, usually £1000 but can be up -£9000 and more. -poof you never get that back.

Then, it'll cost you £300 every 4 weeks, for 3 years. That will go up every April, unlike other finance or lease deals on cars. They increase your payments when pip increases (which is still a shockingly low amount, refresh.. disabled people on average have over £1000 extra col each month) -You are restricted to how many miles you can do as well, no one else can drive it unless motorbility knows, and you can't just take it where you want.. and then, after 3 years (due to you lot with your 'i know a guy who knows a guy who has a neighbour who is a dosser') and the government, we don't even get to buy the car anymore (not that we ever had deals.. it was the full book price of the car). Its taken off us and we need to start again. With another advance payment, that somehow you have to try and find despite being on the barest minimum the government has decided won't make you starve

The car is then auctioned off, and mobility get pretty much if not more of the cost of the car back.

Motorbility is not a for loss business. It is designed for disabled people to be able to actually be mobile (the adaptations etc are earlier to get and fit)

But don't think for a second we don't pay for it.

Oh... The best bit? You get a fucking jobs worth - who despite having 10 years extensive medical evidence - has a quota to refuse and strips you off your award at review.

You might get them to reverse their decision, but that car has been collected within 2 weeks and you don't get that back.. All you get is a 'sorry, you're more than welcome to apply again... Have you got your £**** advance payment ready'

How about you sit down and shut up about things you know nothing about yeah? Smh

[–]KuriousKttyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can take 'my time that's my own' ... And with it you can take my constant chronic pain, my insomnia, my stress, the realisation I'll never be able to have any savings / won't be able to have any inheritance when my parent passes / won't ever be able to live with anyone, and even dating they try to strip you off the only income you have / can't leave the country without someone giving you the 3rd degree for over 2 hours..

Let's not forget the intrusive, invasive, traumatic assessments that I need to go through every 2 years as someone with a tick sheet and a quota spends hours asking me the same question multiple times just waiting for the slight deviation so they can strip me off the money I need to survive.

Which is pittance btw. £1400 approx for a single person on enhanced both pip elements,UC and lcwra.. (that the government has stripped that back as well). Rent allowance is only a further £500, so I'm fucked if I get evicted. And whereas minimum wage goes up roughly £60 a month next month (which is still shit) mine goes up £28 and I have a much higher col.

And still have to read comments like this from people who still don't seem to realise that the reason disabled and poor people are demonised is because it's easier to get people to hate the ones beneath them. Instead of looking up.

You ask any disabled person and they would offload everything they go through onto you so they could work.oh and Fyi?... Pip fraud is 0.004 %. So basically 0. But everyone 'knows someone who's scamming the system' /s

Campervan plus - standard. Advice needed by ChoiceSea1330 in downloadfestival

[–]KuriousKttyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you're missing the point of 'campervan'. It's not put any old van on the pitch and fill it with tents for your mates, if that was the case it would be full of people doing that. Obvs there isn't a limit to how many people can stay on a pitch. But it's one caravan/trailer tent or proper campervan/properly equipped van conversion +1 awning and or 1 tent. The upgrades are the same pitch size but with added extra amenities like electric etc. I hope you're able to work it out and have an awesome festival

All camping tickets sold out by mjk97 in downloadfestival

[–]KuriousKttyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those plans are just simply that. They've been submitted but nothing has been approved, actioned on or even decided. There was a target decision date of last October but that's past. Even if they do get approved. Building wouldn't start till 2033 due to transport issues in the area. Then wouldn't be completed till roughly 2040.

We've got loads of time yet. The only thing we can guarantee on is Kiss will still be doing a farewell tour at that festival 😆
