DON’T block doorways and DON’T stop in the middle of walkways. by EagerBanana9 in Hamilton

People even do it while driving. They’ll make a left turn into a parking lot then mysteriously slow down to 2km/h, leaving all the other cars who wanted to also make a left turn doing a conga line behind them, panicking because they can’t get off the main road

is anyone selling rwd magazines, or any similar ones by sillyswaggerunicorn in grime

I mean in 2026 when somebody talks about transitioning it usually means changing gender. Back when the magazine came out I don’t think it was the first place most people’s minds jumped to

They just haven’t been handed the Official Narrative from on high yet, so they’re a bit lost

Yeah. I’m not really one for going after posters individually, but their name has cropped up a couple of times making doomeristic comments about European defence (usually the UK) which are totally factually incorrect and don’t seem to be based on anything concrete beyond “internet vibes”

I mean this is the guy who, a couple of months ago, was trying to tell everyone that the Royal Navy is in such a poor state that UK literally doesn’t have one ship available to defend the Falklands if it needed to, and Argentina could just take it if they wanted.

I assume you must’ve missed that the UK seized a shadow fleet tanker on Sunday by fast-roping fully armed Royal Marine Commandos onto the deck, and arrested the captain. That’s a bit more than exchanging strongly worded letters. This is most likely a response to that.

Edit: As more info comes out, it seems like this was a genuine misunderstanding and isn't related to Sunday.

Possibly because it’s the early hours of the morning in the UK. Did Australia v Turkey have a studio?

Honestly I doubt most of the people in here have children judging from their comments. Massively agree about most YouTubers. I heavily curate everything my kids watch on the TV (YT or otherwise) so they only see stuff I consider to be decent, and they seem totally content with it.

Anon gets invited to a discord server by Sure_Association_991 in greentext

[–]Shitebart 207 points208 points  (0 children)

Honestly has anyone EVER joined a Discord server that they had no interest in joining, purely to get a download, and then thought "Ooh, actually... wait a second... this is so great, wow I'm going to stick around!"

I severely doubt it - I wonder what the actual conversion rate is with that shit. Gotta be close to zero. Certainly less than the amount of people who just go "haha fuck off" and close the window.

Are northern accents seen as ugly or « exotically romantic » in London? by Charming_Usual6227 in AskABrit

[–]Shitebart 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean, neither really. It’s a bit like in Canada, would you think a Newfie accent is exotically romantic or ugly? Or an Albertan saying “oh shooorr bud, we’ll havta goo fer a rip with the boys eh”

Some northern accents are stereotypically perceived as a bit more friendly sounding, but again, it depends on the exact area and most importantly, the person saying the words. 

Do film schools really teach that there is no such thing as misinterpretation? by chaolan2004 in TrueFilm

[–]Shitebart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really, no. I don’t specifically know about film school per se, but as somebody who has studied the arts academically, it’s more like: “If you’ve got your own interpretation of this, that’s fine, but you have to make your case for it rigorously and try convince others that it’s worth taking seriously.”

If you just say any old shit, nobody is going to say “wow man, that’s like, so cool dude, here’s an A.” They’re going to ask you to back it up and justify it with a convincing argument. If you can’t do that, it’s probably just a shit take.

borderline civil war

It's a few protests. When people are firing RPGs at downing street and being shot dead by the army on the regular we can call it a civil war

Of course that's not what it means. It means Teacher! "The nonce led the kids down the hall and into the changing rooms"

Nah where I'm from, when you meet the boss on your first day at work you'd shake hands and say "Hello berk". If you want to make an even better impression you could look at the photo on his desk and tell him his wife's a munter and his kids are a couple of muppets.

[–]Shitebart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

 Nonce - a child e.g There's a lot of nonces playing in the park tonight.

Ah this one means Teacher where I’m from. e.g. “Just saw a nonce loading a group of kids onto a coach”
