  1. Teens today can access porn on their phone. I had to make do with" Sam Fox Strip Poker" on the Spectrum. Only 3 hours of boring and repetitive gameplay in order to see a green, pixelated image of Sam Fox's chest. I can't understand why I am so bad at poker. I played so much.
  2. The alternative is a huge investment in infrastructure. The water companies can only raise the cash by massively raising prices. That would raise prices of most goods, fuel inflation and cripple government fiscal policy. Shit in the rivers is better than the UK public realising that our country has been mismanaged for decades.
  3. As we grow older we develop a viewpoint that "youngsters today" are not as good as they used to be. I think we do this for 2 reasons. 1. Our aging memories don't recall or realise just how awful we were when we were young. 2. Our subconscious envy of their youth and health requires us to develop a balancing factor to make us feel superior. We tell ourselves that we are wiser, work harder and grew up in a much harder environment. I am sure the middle aged of WW2 thought their kids were wasters. Those kids went on to walk on the moon, connect the world with computers and make massive leaps in medicine and science. I was an arrogant, lazy, little sh!t as a teen. I'm now an arrogant, lazy, overweight sh!t. 1980s kids are different to 2010 kids. Not better or worse. Just different.
  4. If you do this it has to be a legitimate transaction. You'll need boiler checks, carbon monoxide detectors and tenancy agreements. The rent you pay to your kids will be taxed. They will need to make tax returns. Its not as easy as it seems.
  5. Name the movie - Malfunctioning batteries almost destoy the machine they power.
  6. Name the movie - A girl steals the opportunity to appear on reality TV from her sister.
  7. Name the movie - Moody teen can't decide between necrophilia or beastiality.
  8. 2/3 Titanic wasn't what I had in mind.
  9. Name the movie - It takes far too long to return some unwanted jewellery.
  10. Name the movie - Meatloaf is lumpier than normal.
  11. Name the movie - An old man and young boy desperately want the boy's parents to have sex.
  12. Name the movie. Only the woman and the cat survive.
  13. I was reading this a few days ago. Clue >>
  14. Here's a nice clip of Putin dismissing the warnings of the US and UK
  15. To prevent Russia joining NATO To remove Russian Nazis from power To protect Muslims in Dombass Moscow was part of ISIS in the 11th century
  16. Poland and Finland have capable armies and long memories.
  17. But who are we likely battle alone against? One could say we battled Argentina alone. But we didn't really. We utilised NATO ammunition and intelligence. Our NATO allies also backfilled our military commitments elsewhere. If we did go to war with Russia without help from them USA it would conclude well before Russian boots hit UK soil. We like to ridicule the French military. But they are one of the most powerful armies in the world.
  18. To win a war you need men and equipment. Our forces are tiny but the equipment we have is amazing. We are a tiny country with stealth fighters, attack helicopters, cruise missiles, nukes, aircraft carriers, submarines and nukes. We are equipped to defend the UK. Our forces are more than capable of doing that with the equipment we have, the allies we have and our geographical position.
  19. Allowing Russia to take Ukraine would hurt more. Lesson from history- Chamberlain
  20. Russia would have seized Ukraine without them.
  21. And look how it's failed. He's hinted at nuclear war if: Any country interfers with the SMO NATO allows its citizens to join the Ukrainian Army NATO arms Ukraine NATO provides targetting data to Ukraine NATO arms Ukraine with long range weapons NATO arms Ukraine with tanks NATO arms Ukraine with jet fighters NATO troops enter Ukraine Every red line he's drawn NATO has jumped across.
  22. Putin would portray it as an invasion of Russia by NATO. That's a large step towards a nuclear war.
  23. Nope. The earth is curved. That line is not straight.
  24. The expansion of NATO has dealt a huge blow to Russia. Their main naval bases against NATO are Murmansk, St Petersburg and Crimea. Murmansk is supplied by a single road and single railway that run parallel to the Finish border. It runs through several hundred miles of snowy forests and mountains. Finland's armed forces could destroy both with relative ease. That's why Putin needs a huge force to protect the border. Without the supply lines Murmansk would need to be supplied by air and/or sea. Its iced up during the winter and transport planes are sitting ducks for NATO. St Petersburg is at the eastern end of the Baltic. The Baltic is now completely surrounded by NATO. Even if Russia ships/subs reached the western end of the Baltic they still have to navigate the narrow exit through the Danish islands. St Petersburg is also within artillery range of NATO. The Black Sea fleet based in Crimea was once a fearsome force. Its now hiding in ports to avoid the mighty Ukrainian navy of zero warships. Even if it recovered, the Black Sea is almost surrounded by NATO and Ukraine. Its access is also completely controlled by Turkey. Putin has effectively killed his own navy. Its great to see. (pardon the pun)
