    I don't think anyone thinks Churchill made a bad job of WW2 really do they? The context of all this is trolling LAD Brits who don't know he was a cunt

    Comment


      Been a while, keep getting an error on the phone when I open IPB, is there a way I can switch back to old format?

      Devastated to miss the Ascot tipping comp and a couple games of WW.

      Bbv cliffs?

      Comment


        Hitler and his Generals made blunders that made ol soundbite Churchill look a lot better than he really was. They were on the brink post 1940 . I'm also casting doubt on his prowess which in my view is greatly exaggerated.

          Everyone may already know this but access to IPB is back via Tapatalk on your mobile.

          It was gone for me for a week or two after the change over to the new format.

                        OK, this might come across a bit backward on my part but i just cant get/agree with it (unless Im completely reading it wrong?).

                        I suppose the fact my two will be 5yo's this year but i cant imagine reacting like that.

                          Made the eamokoftas again tonight, fifth time I think. Used Coriander in the Israeli salad instead of flat leaf parsley and it was awesomer.

                            My kids have a really strong reaction to coriander (as in they hate it) in it's leafy form, don't notice it ground

                            Obviously my taste buds are ruined through old age but I never really thought of it as being potentially objectionable in any way...

                              That's a person infecting their child with her own mental illness.

                                Look at the picture of the mother. I'd say the poor kids have been rightly infected by general weirdness.

                                  I don't have kids, though I'm pretty sure I agree with you. It's such a minefield to discuss though, as Glinner has demonstrated for years now.

                                        Sorry, she’s saying her five year old son believes she is a girl? And this is some validation of gender fluidity?

                                          Yeah this. I just avoid it like the plague. Have 'trans' muted on twitter.

                                          I can't figure out what my opinion on it is, am conflicted. I agree with Glinner on a lot of fronts, and agree with trans activists on others. Picking a side though just gets your head blown off. Better to back tf away from it.

                                          I think I'm just too old to fully wrap my head around the issue.

                                              It's people wanting to be called 'they' instead of 'he' or 'her' that messes with my marbles.

Like five year olds just don't have those thought processes, or do they? It would be redundant to tell you the million stupid things he has done just today, but the idea that from that brain something about his gender identity could emerge is mindboggling.

                                                                                Obviously my taste buds are ruined through old age but I never really thought of it as being potentially objectionable in any way...

Cucumber is definitely one - for me it's a mild flavour almost like leafy water but apparently some people get a completely different nasty flavour from it.

Now bear in mind, in her day job, she leads a team advocating and helping kids and their parents with all manner of disabilities. So she is well-used to dealing with every kind of problem that walks through her door. All the way up to the worst kind of paedophilia, drug abuse etc.

She is pretty adamant there's no such thing and it's just vulnerable kids who have been exposed to too much BS on social media, or whose parents tolerate and even encourage this crap. Like our friend Dice discovered.

There are people who are trans and sometimes that is evident from when they are very young, it should be a good thing that they are free to express and experiment with that, I'm afraid that the current climate maybe making it more problematic rather than easier. Its such a difficult topic to deal with when the lines in the sand are being drawn in stupid places.

There are people who are trans and sometimes that is evident from when they are very young, it should be a good thing that they are free to express and experiment with that, I'm afraid that the current climate maybe making it more problematic rather than easier. Its such a difficult topic to deal with when the lines in the sand are being drawn in stupid places.

If you want to be a girl when you grow up little Timmy that's ok. If you want to play with dolls now that's ok . The that's ok approach is all that is required. There is never a need to assuage a child any more than that .

I liked his commentary as well t as his playing. Good breakbuilder but the gambler in him costs him frames . Big buddy of Gary Lineker, himself not a bad snooker player cricketer.

Cucumber is definitely one - for me it's a mild flavour almost like leafy water but apparently some people get a completely different nasty flavour from it.
                                                                                                              It's a genetic thing. My father has it for cucumber, my girlfriend has it for coriander. Even the hint of it in a spice mix would render a meal inedible for her. It's just a super strong soap like taste yeah.
                                                                                                              A pity as coriander is class.

                                                                                                                I've been using FreeNas the last couple years but it's not exactly user friendly if you're not too familiar with Linux & coding and I updated it last week and it's just not running so decided I'm gonna go down a different route and UnRaid looks like the best option vs using a Windows operating system.

I haven't because I don't know young people. I wouldn't mind having such a discussion, even though I imagine I would likely regret it. Has anyone read anything interesting on it I can read (not a book)?

                                                                                                                    I accidentally got into gender studies many years ago and really enjoyed it. I recall the "gender is a social construct" idea that was prevalent a few decades ago leading to gender surgery for babies with sex organ abnormalities (intersex babies of various sorts is more common than you imagine). The idea was, well if there's an issue let's just sort them out with a vagina and raise them as a girl. It was a disaster and caused huge suffering and later life realignment surgery.

                                                                                                                    Now maybe this is entirely unrelated to the current transgender activism that's going on, I don't know.

Try and introduce any logic or science into the discussion and you will be met with anecdote and emotive bullshite. You'll leave the discussion not having learned anything and just frustrated.

                                                                                                                      So yeah live and let live - not my business how people want to raise their children
