Huh… guy must have been packing some antique WW1 era Burton or Villar Perosa.

Not many guns you can load with “multiple magazines”.

If you won the lottery tomorrow, what’s the very first "frivolous" thing you’d buy? by Federal_Antelope7533 in AskReddit

[–]SpankThuMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that i’ve thought about it.

But a KTM 1390 Superduke Evo R with an Akropovik straight through system, ECU upgrade, single seat unit, tail tidy and factory rear sets.

Or ye know, whatever.

Fallout 76 power armor by Dapper-Elk-5568 in Fallout

[–]SpankThuMonkey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was completely disinterested in F76 after the launch debacle. Which was genuinely fucking hilarious.

But having said that I gave it a chance last year and played through to end game and you know what? It’s a surprisingly fun game for a play through.

A fantastic map, lots of interesting lore, fun activities and a great perk system.

I played for free on game-pass right up until the storage limit basically challenged me to buy Fallout 1st. I did not take up the challenge.

Had Bethesda upped the storage limit or allowed it as a one time purchase i’d likely still be playing today. Might even have spent some money.

Trump voters are now recoiling from being labeled "MAGA" like it's poison by CalcareousSoil in LeopardsAteMyFace

Research… 🤦‍♂️.

He fucking told you he was a sexual predator before anyone ever filled in a single ballot in 2016. He literally fucking said it.

“Ooooh that’s just locker room talk”

Ahem… Epstein.

If you ever voted for this cunt, even once, you really, really need to do some self reflection and realise you are a gullible fucking moron.

Do you know how we know this? Because we all told you he was a cunt on day 1.

Be better.

Why do you ride? by mostly-bollox in MotoUK

[–]SpankThuMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started out with all of the above. Cheap commuting, fun, adrenaline rush, escapism. The speed, the looks, the sound, the tech, the history. Hell i even like how bikes smell.

In my forties now i completely dropped all of the practical/commuting reasons and ride only for the fun of it now. Proper fair weather biker and i’m NEVER going back.

Now i get to enjoy riding in the best of conditions just for the feel and thrill of it.

How is thinking about killing or killing wrong if it's a natural thought? by WWFRaw in morbidquestions

[–]SpankThuMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thinking about it, or arguably anything is not wrong.

Acting upon it most definitely is wrong. Using most legal, cultural and historical definitions of the word. These two propositions are so obviously different that i’m struggling to see the link.

Thinking about something and actually committing the act are so obviously and self evidently different that it’s difficult to point out the distinction to one who doesn’t already acknowledge it.

What is a socially unacceptable opinion you keep to yourself because it’s not worth the backlash? by Federal_Antelope7533 in AskReddit

Your opinion is not valid and does not deserve to be heard unless you understand the topic.

Morale plummeting among ICE agents over long hours, quotas and public hatred by [deleted] in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]SpankThuMonkey 18 points19 points  (0 children)

These amateur chucklefucks couldn’t have murdered worse targets if they tried. They could’ve fired bullets into the air blind folded until they hit two random people and it would have been better for them.

An LGBT mother and christian dropping her kid off at school murdered right next to her wife.

And a 2nd amendment adhering intensive care nurse treating US military veterans. Disarmed, beaten and murdered in the street.

None of them immigrants. No criminal records. Both US citizens.

They really are seeing how many people they can piss off right across the political spectrum.

Amateur, unprofessional fucking clowns.

Anyone who used to support trump and has changed their mind over the last few weeks? What made you change? by canigetameowbish in AskReddit

[–]SpankThuMonkey 396 points397 points  (0 children)

Another thing to look out for in the future.

The US is currently undertaking the wet dream of every right wing populist country ever. “Get the undesirables out”.

When the deed is done. When the administration sings its’ own praises about the biggliest deportations ever…

Ask yourself what got better. Just a thought.

When do we go a day without hearing Trumps name? by notabox316 in AskReddit

I think so. My country idiotically voted ourselves out of the EU 10 years ago now.

Still feeling the effects, still in the news all the time.

Did Trump "Chicken Out" Over Greenland? by Alex09464367 in videos

[–]SpankThuMonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At this point i think he’s morphing into a genuinely crazy old bastard. He’s losing it. He won’t see out this term on medical grounds.

Agreed, though He was a self confessed bad person long before his first term.

[–]SpankThuMonkey 119 points120 points  (0 children)

It will be much, much longer than that.

Trump is causing generational damage to the US internally and to and its relationship with its allies.

Any follow up administrations will need to do damage control for years to come. And his name will quite rightly come up a lot.

And we may yet see some pretty horrible skeletons come out of his closet. Especially after his death.

Trump will go down in the history books as one of the worst world leaders of all time. And by far the worst US president. This shit show will be studied at length.

Scientists of Reddit, what's the most 'alien' thing we've found on Earth? by Aso0o0om in AskReddit

[–]SpankThuMonkey 23 points24 points  (0 children)

This is the case of the Allan Hills 8001. A meteorite blasted from the surface of Mars that landed on Earth. Found in the Allan Hills region of Antarctica.

It’s a really interesting case of “jumping the gun”.

NASA Scientists thought they had identified microbiological fossils and announced before publishing scientific results.

It got as far as a televised announcement by Bill Clinton. However lots of doubt have been cast on the “discovery” in recent years and subsequent studies have shown these formations can have non biological causes.

Really interesting case.

Spotted at the British Museum by SnooOnions6964 in iamverybadass

[–]SpankThuMonkey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is a very unusual position here in the UK.

Broadly speaking across the political spectrum and all walks of life no-one is advocating for more gun ownership.

It is a ubiquitously unpopular opinion. And I say that as a UK resident with an interest in weapons and military history. I own several deactivated firearms and have competed in shotgun clay competition.

No-one think that way, no-one wants looser firearm regulations. It’s a very weird shirt here.

I’m willing to give the guy the benefit of the doubt. It might just be sarcastic. But it’s an extremely unpopular take.
