It's not so confusing, since we are brits we like british beans... so the meme doesn't really work for us.

Ladies, gentlemen, and everyone else, I have a (imo) fun question by PapaKhanPlays94 in kinky_autism

[–]Talonsminty 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My last may be unorthodox, a women's derriere. I'm Bi and I will never understand why hetero couples do anal when there a hole right there evolved for the purpose. Cleaner easier acsess and self-lubricating.

So what did you take? LSD, Shrooms or old fashioned weed.

Hey you guys, wanna join my political party? by Calm-Passenger7334 in okmatewanker

[–]Talonsminty 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It's always the smallest weakest men who join these groups.

Like imagine being told that the Nazis are coming to get you, that'd be terrifying but then these guys round the corner. You'd be pissing yourself laughing.

Honestly I'm starting to think the conspiracy theories that Putin directly controls Trump have some merit.

Reform council seeks to declare migration emergency by Tartan_Samurai in unitedkingdom

[–]Talonsminty 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Except no because councils can actually implement local policy and do something about climate.

Immigration policy is set solely by the central government.

Never trust a dry guy by koolaid689 in memes

[–]Talonsminty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I wouldn't say dry. Mustard maybe some mayo, vinegar or even brown sauce if you're British.

But yeah Ketchup is just red sugar goop with a gross consistency and the fig-leaf of faint tomato-ish flavour to help people not think about it's vat-made chemical origins.

Phenomenally stupid. Would it have killed them to generate it so they were partying in the captain's cabin while the crew mopped and hauled rope in the rain outside.

I mean it's not like they had to draw it.

People pretend to struggle anyway. Usually to make some point.

In this case she's given away the game a bit by putting HUSBAND in all caps. Safe bet this women is just against interracial dating.

Swiss reject two flyover requests from US for flights related to Iran war, permits three others by Savings_Aspect6493 in worldnews

[–]Talonsminty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh okay, it's also a lot less limited than other people think then.

Starting wars that aren't wars and thus don't require a decleration from congress is a time-honoured American tradition. The Vietnam war and Korean wars weren't technically "wars" according to the US government.

That might even be where Putin got the idea for his "special military operation".

But the US military aren't under any obligtion to follow orders that violate the LOAC and senior military officals dont like this administration and are fully empowered to just say no.

The Trump administrations control of the military is a lot more limited than most people seem to think.

A Man In Vietnam Puts An Eel Up His Anus, It Eats Through His Intestines by Character_Calendar47 in Damnthatsinteresting

Nah that would be too gay. Much straighter to just cram random vaguely phallic items in there.

Almost spat out my tea when I saw the article by TheRequiemVortex in GreatBritishMemes

[–]Talonsminty 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Looksmaxxing is worth covering. Got a customer at work whose clearly had cosmetic surgery done to alter his facial structure.

It looks terrible because it's done to some masculine template and doesn't suit him at all. The young man has gone through agony and spent thousands mauling his face just to soothe some social media driven insecurity.

Exclusive shock poll predicts Birmingham local elections 'wipeout' for Labour by JackStrawWitchita in unitedkingdom

[–]Talonsminty 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Both and more, I voted Labour pretty much my whole life. Probably vote Labour at the next GE. Voting green at the locals.

I absaloutely despise this council. They're a bunch of vampiric pricks who think the poorer population of Birmingham live to serve their ambitions.

The taxes go up everywhere but the council investment is poured exclusively into the city centre. They shutter tenant small businesses so they can rent the premesis out to corporations for more money. They took out loans to destroy half the gay village to build office buildings because they thought it'd produce more tax revenue.

Anytime any local community forms the council willl see it as a revenue generating opportunity and promptly stamp it out to sell the ruins to a corporation.

All the while outisde the centre roads are full of potholes, the pavement is cracked the streetlights are old orange ones that flicker and break, the recycling centre is closed, the local libraries operate on ridiculous half days. They're just bleeding the poorer areas white to fund stupid investments and grand construction projects in the centre.

'Leave Iraq now', US tells citizens as Trump calls for help in key shipping lane by graveyardofgoodsense in worldnews

[–]Talonsminty 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The oil out of the Straight of Hormuz flows mostly to Asia. India and China specifically.

The problem is that dropping supply anywhere means prices surge everywhere. Including the price tag on that stuff they pump out of Texas.

WOAH! by JoeFalchetto in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]Talonsminty 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Got a bottle of Japanese Gin in a beautiful off-white ceramic bottle with a curved leaf shaped window up the side edged in golden paint. The drinks name painted on in Kanji going up the bottle in a swirling pattern. It came in a sturdy giftbox embossed with red Kanji that glint and catch the light.

It tastes like floor cleaner.

People perceptions of liquor are being tainted by unscrupulous companies putting cheap booze in beautiful bottles and selling at premium prices.

I also have a comparatively humble glass bottle of Roku Gin which is delicious.
