I don't care if they get him or not. Im just happy they're having to slog it out with a conference team for Bournemouth's castoff failures.

ditto Johnny Vegas about 15 years ago. The entire audience just sat in stony silence. There was no heckling, it would have been like booing at a funeral.

Maybe I should check them out then

Also speaking very much as a layman, I don't see why. Basically the ruling says that if she is so drunk she is incapacitated then she cannot consent to sex - so its rape. However the simple fact she has drunk quite a lot does not in itself mean intercourse is rape - ie incapacity is the defining factor, not how much alcohol she has consumed.

..and anyway there is no practical alternative, its just another example 'we should do something and someone is to blame' hand wringing . If people have no symptoms then there is nothing to screen for. Even if you detained every passenger and carried out blood tests for viral loads or antibodies they wouldnt show up anything in the early stages of incubation.

Could have been a lot worse then

'More often than not' is absolutely meaningless in restricting supply. All someone who wouldnt pass the background check needs to do is go to the 'not' place.

If everyone knows someone who can get one there must be loads about. How many people have been shot by an assault rifle in the UK in the past 10 years? How many have been seized in police raids? Also you are wrong about restrictions on obtaining a gun in the US - flat wrong as Clinton used to say. The state by state restrictions are optional in that they apply to gunshops only. If you want to buy a gun no questions asked you simply go to one of the 5,000 gunfairs held each year. http://www.governing.com/gov-data/safety-justice/gun-show-firearms-bankground-checks-state-laws-map.html http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-21712820

One of the comments at the end of the story was 'why do I keep falling for this stupid clickbait?'. Sums it up.

I dont need to. Its from the What if series of opinion pieces in Prospect magazine. Other pieces are 'What if the WW1 never happened' and 'What if Henry Viii had been granted a divorce' - ie they are entirely speculation about what would have happened under entirely different circumstances.

Its not pedantry its reality. There was no way the language was ever going to be German, which makes your one page meandering space filler even odder.

Post on the octoporn thread. That'll sort you out.

How does that explain your posts then?

I started taking thyroxine, that lost 10 pounds, plus drinking water instead of juice all the time lost another 7. You fat bastards

Happy Birthday Goaty! You share the date with Julian, the bloke who made the calendar.

tbf it looks like 69 was knocked down in a slum clearance. Bearsy uses the address but its just a place to doss on some waste ground opposite a school - so its got everything he needs. https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@52.4945852,-1.9409523,3a,75y,84.49h,79.69t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sQLIw5WQjZm2SXmnDb6L16w!2e0!6m1!1e1?hl=en

Lots of lazy generalisations about Americans as though they're one homogenous mass. Some of the smartest best educated people I know are American. Yes there are some thick, insular dinlos - but theres some on this forum too.

Next door have got a mop and bucket. Thats living alright. Put it on show outside and make your neighbours green with envy.

You sure its not number 91 Tokes? Three satellite dishes and no bath seems right to me. https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@52.4956275,-1.9411487,3a,49.5y,262.74h,88.1t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sJpc0swM15BC7S51_fasVhg!2e0!6m1!1e1?hl=en

I always prefer prostitution to cup-a-soup.

Rate someone elses genitals

The tragedy is that they buy guns to protect their family and instead one of the kids gets hold of the gun and accidentally shoots their sister / brother / mum or the parents shoot each other during a row. Not in isolated instances but in a ratio of something like 15:1 of domestic shootings over stranger shootings. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9715182
