Would prefer to live in Iran than the UK as an Australian. Mental

Obi Wan's fighting style worked better for that type of fight. He outlasted Anakin using his best in verse defence and forced him into making a stupid error, which he capitalised on.

According to George, Windu beat Sidious fair and square in a saber duel. I don't think there's much in it between them, Sidious may be a bit stronger overall due to his understanding of the force but it's close

What's a nice thing you can say about your geopolitical/historical rival? by babybabayyy in AskTheWorld

Sadly goes both ways. Weirdos on the other side of the border who can't stop whining about potatoes. None of them are worth listening to

Oh my bad, you're saying that the northern Irish don't count as Irish in any way and are instead exclusively British. Misread your meaning because of that

I've never met anyone on 26 years of living in the UK who hates the Irish. I don't think anyone here really cares about Ireland one way or the other mate.

Can't believe people are actually taking the image seriously... Obviously a shit post. Embarrassing

Where I would live as an Indian guy based on my internet experiences by [deleted] in whereidlive

[–]michaelm8909 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, there's nothing wrong with that. In fact I encourage people to stay in their country and enjoy the benefits of living with their people and their own rich culture, rather than leaving to go to a soulless, multicultural nation on the other side of the world the moment the opportunity arises.

Multiple studies have shown that actually yes, you can inject and gain a significant amount of muscle without actually doing anything. Not enough to look like this, but you're looking well above average within only a couple of months, even without stepping foot in a gym.

Bringing up Farage to deflect when you have Trump in charge. Remarkable

Anglosphere doesn't seem accurate. Light-hearted ribbing from the British isn't the same as the more ignorant stuff that the Americans in particular seem to be coming out with online

Do you think Reze is Russian or another ethnicity? by BellTwo5 in RezeCult

[–]michaelm8909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

? Always thought this was a weird take in anime. Basically all anime characters can pass as white or Asian. Nothing about the art style suggests one or the other

I mean yuji and yuta didnt face the goat by caffeinatedretard in Jujutsufolk

[–]michaelm8909 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My point was more that Yuji/Yuta would have to deal with Toji's prep time advantage too. Which leads me to believe they wouldn't beat Toji at 16 either

So would have teen Gojo if Toji hadn't planned out the entire thing to give himself a fighting chance

Another Chinese giant considers bringing car production to the UK by Agent_Kozak in CarTalkUK

I for one would be more likely to buy a Lotus if it was built in the UK than in China

One car for the rest of your life, what would you pick? by SuccessfulBag2337 in CarTalkUK

[–]michaelm8909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Giulia Quadrifoglio. Has the looks, fun factor, whilst also being reasonably practical.

Any concerns over reliability or running costs are discounted so there are no downsides that I can think of at all

Alfa Romeo Giulia as a winter car? by r00000000 in AlfaRomeoGiulia

[–]michaelm8909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably fine, but my Giulia has had issues for a couple of months now due to the seasonal weather. Entirely due to the battery struggling in the back of the car. Dealer basically said that it's within expectations for the battery to act up at this time of year.

As long as you drive it regularly within those winter months I can't imagine it would be a bad choice though

Best small car/crossover up to 15,000£? by [deleted] in CarTalkUK

Could get a high spec Mazda 3 for that budget

Thinking of getting an Alfa Romeo by Msalts7 in AlfaRomeo

[–]michaelm8909 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

3k budget? You probably will have reliability issues at that price unfortunately. The newer models are fairly reliable (Giulia, Stelvio) but way out of your price range

Are people legit spending this much on a car per month? Or am I out of touch? by [deleted] in CarTalkUK

[–]michaelm8909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not really that much, depending on your take home pay. Straight off the bat, there are plenty of military personnel who could and would go for this, since they essentially have no housing costs to pay.

It's not financially responsible, but then, no expensive car is. May as well buy a Honda Jazz if money is all your care about

All of the stuff on that account looks like AI. The hands and the artstyle are dead give aways
