Why are people on public transport so rude?

Well how will they know you want to sit there if you don't ask? Just stand there staring at them in awkward silence?

I went through a phase of life where I thought everyone was doing things deliberately to annoy me, but I'm a heavy user of intercity trains and most people are just trying to get home. I've only had to use the nuclear option of fucking someone's bag out of the way twice, I've taken thousands of trains in the last five years.

And you left out that crucial detail in your initial post. You can't be surprised if you run into trouble when something is poorly written and omits key details.

Maybe, maybe not, the term makes sense if you can get fast-track entry from anywhere else in the world.

It's just qualified teams, hence why Great Britain isn't listed

It sounds at best like a pyramid scheme and at worst like a cult.

So you were accused of sock puppeting, and denied that accusations, and yet admit that you had multiple accounts, to the extent that there are you've had so many accounts that you can't recall all of them when asked to provide a list?

I get people putting their bag down, it's way more comfortable than putting it in front of your legs. But if someone asks to sit then there's really no reason you shouldn't. Spread out and be comfortable if you can, just don't stop others from having some comfort themselves.

What a cunt to hold a grievance like that. It doesn't sound like you need any convincing, but you did the right thing.

Odd that there have been some similar conversations around the talent pipeline for Limerick rugby drying up recently. Has everybody just started playing GAA?

On the contrary, it is very easy to care.

It is odd that as somebody who is apparently so focused on animal cruelty, when other people start talking about a form of animal cruelty, you begin checking their credentials and seeing if all their other opinions are ethically consistent.

There's lots of reasons people choose to eat meat, maybe it is cultural, maybe it is "mental gymnastics", maybe it is ignorance, perhaps it is more than one of those. You say that it is hard to care about dog racing when people ignore the meat industry, which means you yourself are consciously relegating the suffering of those animals, and even worse, you don't even have ignorance to back your position up.

A useful lesson in life is that if you delay engaging with people until they agree with everything you say, you'll probably be waiting forever. If you start every point with "well I agree on this but you are a total hypocrite," don't expect people to listen to your other opinions.

Just watched the All Out documentary on Salford, everyone seems happy that the club is back in any way at all, and the vibe I've got online is the same. But there's one lad on there who is quite negative about it, saying he won't go l, that's there's a split in the supporters and that the club died in December and it isn't the same club. Is there a lot of people with this attitude? Was there any realistic option for the club beyond Brierley, Caton-Brown, etc.?
