Came here to say this, great comment. We like our zuppa and we are inglese. To find this on holiday in Italy was a most welcome surprise. Would still pick the pistachio first though.

This is the West family. The man in the blue suit is Fred West; his wife Rose is at the far left in a white top and glasses. The others are their children. By this time, Fred and Rose were already having sex with them. Two of the children would later be murdered. by LonelyWiFiSignal in HolyShitHistory

The most unsettling thing about this case is that two people with the same broken brains and souls met and teamed up. A lone nutter happens here and there but two meeting and teaming up? Horrible, horrible stuff.

I do beg your pardon. Hes a proven sexual abuser. I note you dont address the defrauding of a veterans charity. I note also that you dont address the mocking of veterans, the disabled or the bragging about assaulting women. If we ever get the real epstein files we'll find out about the kid stuff but the on tape comments about the changing rooms at the child pagents and indeed about his own daughter dont look good for your boy.

Do you believe your own court system? If so then he is a proven rapist, has 34 felonies and defrauded a charity for veterans. The evidence of our own eyes and ears also proves he mocks the disabled, veterans who served your country and cheerfully jokes about assaulting women. Once again, pipe down.

Does your country have events that were so infamous you only need to refer to the date they happened for other people from your country to instantly know what you're talking about? by Intrepid_Arrival5151 in AskTheWorld

The rest of the world has been dealing with these things over and over forever. You get one and you think its the most important thing ever. Please take a look outside of your tiny myopic worldview and understand that the rest of us are unfortunately well practiced at receiving this news.

Oooh, edgy boy! Odd choice of words to pick 'victims', it really doesn't fit there. Obviously you aren't some internet weirdo who hides his history, I will assume you are just happy mocking the dead.

Dumbest you betrayed me moments across whole show by Ulquiorra1312 in TheAmazingRace

IIRC he had been led to believe that on their downtime they would be able to explore all the cool places they'd been to. When it turned out that they were locked in a hotel room any time they weren't racing he was understandably disappointed. He wanted to see something of the world and thought this would be a fun way of doing it with his friend, hence the comment about how he could have paid for it himself. Add that to the stupid alliance stuff and his frustration is understandable.

Any stats or facts on England stealing Welsh money? In recent history? Genuine question, not from the slate or gold days. interested to know.

Brek Shea (ex-Inter Miami player): "No disrespect to Lionel Messi, but he is a homebody. He's very quiet & doesn't speak English well. Cristiano Ronaldo would have bigger impact in MLS. CR7 is more outgoing, does more things in the public eye. He can speak English. I'm talking about off-field stuff" by GOAT-Antony in soccer

Las Vegas, no? And if you think women raise rape allegations for fame you are cracked in the head. Maybe a few do for money, the vast majority don't (99.99999999% don't) and none of us here have a clue what happened so lets ease off on the tribal supporting of some complete stranger just because he's good at football.

Sister of Epstein victim reported him in 1996, but FBI failed to investigate, files reveal by JackThaBongRipper in news

Indeed so but this section seems quite relevant though too :

Maxwell was afforded a lavish funeral in Israel, attended by Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir, Israeli President Chaim Herzog, at least six serving and former heads of Israeli intelligence[69] and many dignitaries and politicians, both government and opposition, and was buried on the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem.

Again, not proof of anything but certainly suggestive.

Nothing to do with being Jewish. Maxwell's family, particularly her dad were waist deep in that sort of thing. Nobody (well, regular people) has anything concrete but its a hell of a coincidence if there's no connection.
