I need Shingles all the way right now.

The rulers of today have already bought nice chunks of London, Paris, New York. They’ll be fine.

The UK has some of the best produce in the world. What the average person at home does is of course something else but that’s no different in a lot of countries.

As someone mentioned rationing didn’t help the image but also the drabness of industrial canned food in the brown seventies. And people just forgot how to cook.

Well that’s just cats in general. Vindictive little bastards.

The numbers went up since the mass adoption of electric bikes. This caused especially elderly people to drive twice as fast as they could before, with heavier bikes they can’t control as well and they generally don’t wear helmets.

The next big problem are young people doing what young people do but now with electric assistance

Most people who ride bikes just ride bikes. And a minority are what you call “cyclists”.

You’re lumping them all together and are part of the problem. Dick.

Those are indeed special situations where cats are basically an invasive species.

Here in Europe the correlation between cats and bird population is not so strong. While destruction of habitat and the crash in insect numbers are the big culprits.

Housecats were actually keeping the bird population healthy for decades by eliminating the weak. Of course now that habitat destruction and toxins made entire populations weak it is a problem.

But removing housecats to solve it is akin to drinking out of paper straws to solve plastic pollution. It helps, but it doesn’t do anything substantial.

Your yard in your summer residence then. Jeez

Honestly, how much TV can someone watch before it’s just a blur of all same same but different movies, series and whatnot?

Everyone is different though, for example I can’t for the life of me watch any series to completion. Sometimes not even the first episode. But I can lose hours trawling through all I can find on Sphagnum moss.

You are sold escapism, because you can’t escape.

Hey. You are the one reducing what I’m saying as a sweeping all encompassing statement about someone’s humanity.

I’m saying that not being bothered to say hi and bye doesn’t make you an introvert. An introvert is someone being comfortable with his inner self and preferring deeper contact with few than being a beacon of energy in a crowd.

If you can’t be bothered saying hi to a stranger, of course you are still human. It’s just not necessarily a trait of an introvert. Its Part of another character trait or the state of mind you’re in.

You might be more than introvert. You can be shy, anxious, anti-social. A grumpy curmudgeon. All things extroverted people can also be.

Also saying hi and bye or an acknowledging nod are not small talk.

For a few items, sure. But even I, a rabid introvert, will seek out a cashier for my weekly shopping. To say hello and goodbye. You all forget to be human beings. Stop making being InTrOvErT yet another singular form of personal identity.

While the influence from the elite is undeniable, I also hope you don’t subscribe to the idea of the noble savage.

Bring back the flappers!!!

Stop buying girls pants and shop only boy stuff. Watch the industry squirm.

I looked into my wife’s bag once. I think I saw the Event horizon.

People are concerned or outraged again in the name of someone else. In this case Salma Hayek. Usually using that she tells the story of how uncomfortable she felt, leaving out the fact that she felt uncomfortable because of the snake. Not this.
