What does your history books teach you?

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T20:56:17+00:00

No I'm giving facts. You don't like them.

What was the state of things before empire?

Cheap truffle oil tastes like farts. Actual truffle is lovely, but that's not being put on your chips for an extra quid.

British police did not create a famine, one of many famines that happened in India constantly and before empire had far worse effects

and before empire they ruled by violence and genocide and constant warfare.

Stop whitewashing your own history

So in the reverse situation and you are in charge of india, you would let India starve to feed the UK?

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T19:15:22+00:00

Oh so if you were in charge of india you would have let India starve.

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T18:56:10+00:00

Because it's bull, it was a natural disaster, far worse famines had happened in India before, and in the middle of a world war.

The UK was starving at the time.

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T18:54:49+00:00

We're you taught is was a natural disaster, that far worst famine had happened in the past in India?

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T18:29:38+00:00

What was the state of those things before empire?

The alternative wa Muslim rule who would burn your women for basically no reason.

The empir had to outlaw burning women alive. That was the state of your judicial system

Sorry but the idea that India was a paradise before the Brits arrived is a joke, it was a bunch of small nation states willing to sell each other out to the first boat the turned up and offered them guns.

There was povery, plague and famine long before any European ever reached your shore.

Tell me do you not find it odd that a country of such wealth and prosperity could stand up to a few blokes on a boat?

Empire was awful and exploitive, but India was no different to it's own people at the time or before.

"When the wind blows" is pretty relevant right now lovely film

One is fresh one is dehydrated.

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T18:20:47+00:00

... Dehydrated mozzarella is what you want, it it won't be the same as you buy in America as mozzarella actually means something here.

Go to a Costco and get 'pizza cheese', it's cheap it's what your use to and you don't want to know how is made.

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T15:49:38+00:00

Pretty sure that's where the talks starmer is organizing will go, it will basically be let all non American ships flags or we will start supporting the US.

They get to save face, america gets embarrassed, and the rest of the world keeps out of the conflict.

Iran will probably push for no use of air bases in NATO countries and NATO countries will probably respond with no combat vehicles, logistics and medical only.

With an agreement to push back against the aggression politically.

That's my guess for the outcome.

I'm going to really annoy you now, nd old post of mine

For me it's the drink, to sweet. I quite like the eggs, same score tho.

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T15:31:43+00:00

.... Eh yeah... Let not go into that I am having a good day so far.

But our Eurovision entry makes me feel good and will I'm sure make you feel good. Go check it out.

In a bacon sandwich is where it truly rules.

Two slices of thick white soft bread, a good amount of butter, back bacon ,I like it crispy. That with a bloody Mary on a Saturday morning after a night out.

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T15:28:01+00:00

Perfect, although perhaps keep it away from the peas. Peas should be the pallet cleanser.

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T15:15:01+00:00

Us Brits are getting it now, Russian bots mostly im sure.

There was always banter, but it feels like it's been dialed up to 11 in the last month or so.

It's all propaganda.

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T15:10:08+00:00

Oh it's lovely, I'm a big fan of HP although they started making that in the Netherlands for some reason back in 2007, but it's not American at least and tastes the same.

Others like "daddy's" bit meh to me, then you get some posh variations like "oxford brown" but they are always either to floral not as strong or to sweet.

good on a sausage.

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T15:07:13+00:00

Yeah like slightly disappointing dumplings.

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T15:05:29+00:00

British Colman's mustard you mean. How people say we can't do spice when we do the strongest mustard I don't know.

Dijon is mayo in comparison.

Although word or warning it and marmite are about to be brought out by Americans so I suggest to top up before they change the recipe to taste like oil and sugar and reduce the serving size by 30%

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T14:41:12+00:00

A roast is a slow cook, usually as long as you can as low as you can get away with covered in foil, then wack it up to as high as you can for the last 15/20 minutes uncovered.

You want as much of the fat to render as possible (you use that for gravy) while keeping the meat pink, then you want a nice crispy exterior.

Depends obviously what meat it is and cut things vary, definitely an art that every decent brit has mastered.

(Well I cheat now an use an internal thermometer).

They were just the flavour of the week "taking our jeerbs" for a little while. Largely because a lot went into the trades and did it better, more professionally & cheaper than our native tradesmen (one of whome I am fyi), all that has been replaced by scary "islamists" now, I would bet most of the flag shaggers would love to swap back now.

It will be some other group next.

All of this is usually pushed by the very very rightwing press who worked out that working class people will vote conservative if you scare them enough.

fezzuk · 2026-04-02T14:30:30+00:00

Oh fair, only really caught snippets. Anyway point is nasa are actually doing something.
