I did give him a precis. I’m not sure he’s the best at listening though.
I think we are missing Fashionista Bletch’s sartorial guidance. I do remember his advice on my choice of beige socks with my summer sandals. I think in that respect we can consider ourselves a la mode .
“…The PM and Canadian PM Justin Trudeau made the "agreement in principle…”
“… Welcoming the continuity deal, Mr Trudeau suggested a new comprehensive trade agreement with the UK would take several years to negotiate…”
So, despite Johnson seeming to declare this as a victory, basically we’re just able to carry on trading as if we were still in the EU.
We also seem to import twice as much as we export…

Haven’t we always?
Again - that was the point.
When I gave my itinerary at Heathrow that I was visiting Liverpool, the custom’s agent literally said, “why would you want to go to that shithole…”
That is - what is NORTH England seems to be relative to just how far SOUTH in England you are.
I know with most Yanks, if they make a social faux pas or say something impolite, you’re used to chalking it up to their general ignorance of the customs and traditions of your country.
Make no mistake - if what I say offends - it is most likely intentional.
Keep in mind - he was calling my BBS an unsavory shithole that would only attract the basest and most dis-enjoyable sort of users. I was simply pointing out, that is usually the more interesting place to be.
Aren’t BBS an alloy wheel maker?
And as pap and anybody else here will confirm, anything I post is meant seriously. I never joke.
Yep Scotty’s a cunt. We have a lot of cunts here.
So back to the topic of the discussion, a deal is supposed to be very close, perhaps being announced tomorrow.
The £ has been up & down like a whores’ drawers this past week.
Deal no deal virus.
Skittish as hell.
Which means someone was leaking hints to their mates
No we just accept it is ignorance pure and simple
Yet still, you care about them and what they’re up to, and they could give fuck-all about how your life is going.
Pap and I have had this discussion already. They can afford to be ignorant of you. You can’t afford to be ignorant of them.
This is even more pure and simple.
From a self-professed non-cunt, that’s pretty harsh Tigger.
Yeah, I noticed that. I did assume that if he is ignorant in knowing himself, his opinion on the ignorance of others is fairly suspect, as well.
But, knowing my ignorance in how the English use language, I thought it might be one of those English things where you say the opposite you mean about a person… like calling someone, “quite charming,” when you really mean, “he is a total asshole.”
You are not a people who always speaks plainly, now are you?
Anyhow, Tigger seems quite intelligent, to me, so I guess we’ll wait for him to contribute his thoughts.
Slight miscalculation there, I honestly do not care what they think, do or feel. Oh and I am a her not a he
Well, in that case, by American standards - you’re actually very much a cunt.
Pure in thought word and deed
I always find it remarkable when people on the Internet claim they don’t give a rat’s ass about the topic they’re engaging with.
You know how I usually know I have no fucks to give about what someone else has posted?
Because I don’t respond - at all.
But maybe that is some other cultural thing I don’t understand about the English. Maybe you only engage in topics you have no interest in. I suppose that could be the case.
It’s possible to be interested in a topic but not give a fuck about someone else’s opinion on said topic.
Who the fuck asked you?
