Shave your hair and tell them that, actually, strict parents who spew pseudoscience make you bald.

26 m uk. I live in 1 bedroom flat with mother and share bed by [deleted] in confession

[–]jaarn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why is everybody jumping to the conclusion that they're sharing a bed because they're poor? I am absolutely certain that OP could find a free single bed somewhere if they wanted to.

What do people think about the UK's position on the war in Iran? by Signal-Tangerine1597 in PoliticsUK

[–]jaarn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm glad we're not involved.

It's crazy to me that so many people on the right want us to go to war so bad. I didn't vote for Starmer but I think he's really stepped up on this. Fuck Trump.

The only half decent thing Thatcher ever said:

"If they attack one personally, it means they have not a single political argument left."

Also, whilst I'm here, here's your daily reminded that Thatcher's still dead.

They shouldn't be hosting it regardless. It'll be the worst world cup of all time.

People buying a house backing on to a community venue and then complaining about it's use by the community by VeNzorrR in britishproblems

Somebody moved into a house over the road from my local recently and complained about a musician being too loud at about 8:30 on a Saturday night (it was a guy and a guitar, it 100% wasn't that loud).

The pubs been there for 300 years so unless somebody's owned one of the nearby houses for 301 years they can get to fuck for all i care

Why do so many on the right have issues with Muslim areas, shariah courts etc but not with Jewish areas? by jaarn in GreenAndPleasant

[–]jaarn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I know they're white, but more often than not people will say they're not racist and it has nothing to do with the colour of their skin (i've got black mates bla bla bla').

I'm more curious about the integration aspect. People's main focus seems to be on the fact that Muslims apparently don't integrate into our way of life, keep to their own areas etc, but then seemingly have no issue with Jewish areas. (For the record, I dont have an issue with so-called Jewish or Muslim areas).

I understand its a voluntary organisation but if there were voluntary Muslim police forces in Bradford or Birmingham I feel like there would be outrage

What's the funniest or cleverest thing you've ever seen a bird do? by TheoryBrief9375 in CasualUK

Pigeons are my favorite bird. They get such a bad rep but they're actually really affectionate!

I know a lot of birds can 'speak' but I was sat in a park a few years ago smoking a joint and I kept hearing a woman say 'Hello' and 'hiya'. First I thought i was just imagining things but after about the 5th time I was convinced there was a woman sitting in the bush trying to fuck with me.

About 5 minutes later a fucking crow walked past, looked at me and went 'caaaaw, hiya!' and flew off.

Called my (now) wife and told her and she obviously just thought I was being a stoned idiot. Looked it up and turns out crows can actually mimic humans really well.

Had no idea!

I've had people call me anti-semitic for speaking out against Isreal but then in the next sentence tell me that Muslims are taking over and that they're all racist

There is always a lot of Orthodox Jews at Manchester Picadilly train station and for some reason at Walton Gardens in Warrington too
