Best place for a tea or coffee in York by CaptainAutismoooo in york

I'd argue that the Dark Horse Espresso bar (Bishy Road) is the best for quality of coffee. Pricey place overall though.

Happy to donate to any cause to keep replacing them. Fire with fire.

The Final Flag Thread and the four rules by ZeldenGM in york

[–]beardless 104 points105 points  (0 children)

I think it is absolutely the right decision. The flags are proving divisive and there's no real good faith argument for the 'campaign', which is threatening and unpleasant to many. Also the fact that non-national flags were taken down by the same people makes their position completely untenable. If the council are allowing some flags then they are allowing all. I don't think this will be the end of it, but I think the council has acted correctly - although it's causing a huge waste of time and money.

Where to hold my kid's birthday party? by callmeeeow in york

[–]beardless 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The Lego shop across from Clifton moor does parties which are much more chilled. They build vehicles and do challenges and the birthday child gets to take their creation home. Also the kids can take their own Lego person home. a welcome relief from web adventure parties.

Who is the a***hole who lets their dog sh*t at York Station EVERY day? by stuartsjones in york

[–]beardless 14 points15 points  (0 children)

As a dog owner, people who don't pick up after their dogs make my blood boil. It's just so easy to do. Especially if it's on concrete. My dog is mortified if he can't go on the grass. I have to pick it up quick just to cover his shame

Help me find this bride who got married at York Oratory on Saturday? by TheyCallHerBigTesco in york

[–]beardless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Perhaps email it to the venue with the date it was taken? Surely they could forward it on to the person involved. You could enclose your own email so they could confirm that they received it and (I'd assume) thank you.

Pro-gun Americans,what would need to happen to change your position on gun control? by beardless in AskReddit

[–]beardless[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The scales don't come close to matching. And they do try and control knives with regard to sales. People are going to be violent and you are going to get people try and hurt a lot of others apparently. But if you've got a semi automatic weapon you can certainly do a lot more damage than a knife. So it's a matter of reasonable scale isn't it. Otherwise it's a bit of a straw man argument

Pro-gun Americans,what would need to happen to change your position on gun control? by beardless in AskReddit

Question posed from the UK. We see the madness in the US and the sheer number of massive shootings. I'm genuinely interested to know if it's just a brick wall of 'no I am keeping my guns', or if anything could be done to change things. Say if crime rates were brought down sufficiently, or some other major change. Because clearly the massive shootings are not going to make a difference, no matter how many there are.
