The world tends to find that having an extraordinarily wealthy parent makes its own luck.

Exactly. Unfortunately "move fast and break things" has some disadvantages when it comes to driving in traffic.

At first I read that as an old printer from a school, and thought that was a very weird thing to want, but then I realised you meant a printer that was old school, and it all suddenly made sense to me!

Well, perhaps it might be possible to catch some tummy bug from someone else, I don't know, but you inhale the fecal particles when you flush anyway I suppose.

The lid stays down all the time (well, in between use) at our house, with the idea that you minimise the amount of fecal particles floating around your room. I know it doesn't eliminate it, but I want to flush as much as possible of the poo and not inhale it, so I insist on the lid being closed.

I'm not claiming danger, I just don't like the thought.

I wouldn't put toilet paper up my nose - I don't trust other toilet users to not touch the toilet roll and I don't trust the room to not have fecal particles from lidless flushing on things. I don't want tu put someone else's poo up my nose.

I am British and I love this.

[-] david@feddit.uk 2 points 10 months ago

OK, yes, I think you're right.

[-] david@feddit.uk 20 points 10 months ago

Of course, but the far right don't care about facts, they just care about racism.

Oh, I thought it was the CEO's online reputation and the fact the people are hearing more and more that their after sales service is shit, eg being charged £17000 for a new motor which is apparently the driver's fault for driving it in the rain. In Scotland.

Apparently the problem has been known for some time:

You say that because you commit crimes of indecency against confectionary and you like to think of yourself as immune to radicalisation. Don't kid yourself. Come back to all that is right and good before it's too late for you.

It's symptomatic. Symptomatic of the abandonment of all that is proper and decent. Would our great grandparents have eaten candy like this? Would they have celebrated their rebellious ways so boldly? No, they'd have been ashamed. Ashamed of their wicked rule breaking. Rule breaking just for the sake of it. Rule breaking, not for mercy, not in exceptional circumstances, not out of desperation or having no other options, but role breaking just to show off how little respect they have in their hearts.

So yes, yes, people are eating bad candy so incorrectly that you can TELL society is on the point OF COLLAPSE.

This is indicative of a terrible malaise in education, in parenting, in intergenerational transfer of values, in respect and in good manners. No wonder the far right are on the rise, that Naziism is again celebrated. These edgelords will be the first to join the SS, just to shamelessly show off how wicked they are. Have we learned nothing? Are we so quick to repeat history's darkest mistakes?
