I needed to go to the shops today.
Went to Tesco (think if Walmart and Target had a hideously deformed, retarded baby). They have been full on queuing and one way systems for months. Today, nothing. Walked straight into the shop, got my stuff, straight through self service and out again.
Aldi was the same. The only thing not normal was the perspex screens on the tills. Very few mask wearers.
Pubs are back open and they are absolutely normal, apart from instead of a scrum at the bar like we Brits prefer, it was a queue. Actually got served quicker than normal.
On sat we had a street party to celebrate one of the neighbours 30th. Everyone together, drinking and having fun. I catered it and there was no masks, no distancing and no fear. Was bloody lovely to see.
People are getting sick of this shit. Normal is coming back fast, commies get fucked.
That is really sad, and extremely rage inducing. Thanks to the left you can't even make a small gesture of appreciation like that.
I don't think our cops in the UK are allowed to eat/accept food on duty but they will gratefully accept a coffee. No doubt some evil leftist clown will try to poison a copper eventually, and that tiny bit of civility and positive engagement will be yet another thing they take from us.
I am not American, but if I was I would be turning up in my food van to supply free coffee and hot food for those brave officers.
Good cops need to know the Silent Majority has their back, that we see them as human beings doing a very tough job.
How awfully convenient.
I mean, can there be any doubt, at this point, that this was an orchestrated hit? These clowns could have just paid some hood thug to do the job and it would have been a simple "Home invasion" murder.
But no, they had to hire a guy who did it in a way that seems almost designed to obviously look like a hit. Then they kill him to make it even more suspicious.
But who could it have been? It's not as if there is a federal agency that has been busted over 100 times, organising, grooming and aiding terrorists and criminals...oh hold on, I am being handed a note...
...Goddammit.
It's the little things. The small, everyday annoyances, inconveniences and inconsiderate idiots that build up until you can't take it any more.
As a guy with a real short temper it is exhausting having to keep the beast locked up every single day.
Thank god for heavy bag work!
Ex Roman Catholic Agnostic here.
Yeah I like Christians. I see them as a highly desirable part of society. And they have a good set of values to live your life by, even if you are not religious.
My dads side of the family is Salvation Army and those guys are the real deal; they are out there in the freezing cold, clothing and feeding homeless people as well as providing humanitarian aid and disaster relief. As far as I can tell they have no guilt tripping and threats of damnation, just love and compassion. If I were ever to become religious again it would be them I joined.
As far as I am concerned anyone who follows the teachings of Jesus, and tries to emulate him, is a person worth knowing.
They are banking on winning in Nov and covering it all up. With their typical level of ignorance and arrogance they have once again forgotten that The Silent Majority is a thing.
Your job is to 1) Ensure you vote, 2) Continue to demand, loudly, that these companies are smashed into a million pieces.
I was being daft but it's North East, Teesside specifically. Tough, working class people. Ex Coal mining area, lots of blue collar workers. I used to live in North Yorkshire which is probably more Alabama-like; pretty much everyone owns a gun, very close knit communities and massive distrust of government.
Fun fact: During WW2 we produced most of the explosives for British munitions. If the Luftwaffe had dropped a lucky bomb near where I live, you would have heard the explosion in America!
Agreed, but they are comically, brutally harsh.
You approach one at a bar, you better be bringing your A game.
