If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck.
Even in the unlikely event that governments donate materiel, I canāt imagine the military industrial complex saying āitās on the house, Joe. Weāve made so much in profits we can afford it!ā
Considering āother nationsā have donated peanuts to help with the cost of the refugees here, I am sure that the invoices are being typed all across western mil/ind complex.
Oh wait, I know they are as itās the only way the tank guys could afford me!
You have historically not been immune to his charms.
I realy canāt be arsed anymore. I think @Donkey_Schlongās post on the Barry Island thread sorted a few things out for me - and not just on the Barry front!
(I know lot of zealots!)
I will chip in when the bite is just too delicious to take up, e.g.:
Self-contradiction within five minutes
Easily disprovable statements
It might be easier to just ban him. Speaking purely from a personal point of view, Iād sooner see five @tigger posts a month than an avalanche of Barryshite every five minutes.
It would also allay the concerns of those shouting from the moral high ground, saying you should never play the man.
I also think it could be done in a āburn the witchā style from the Holy Grail. We missed out on that last time.
What I donāt get is why @Not_Barry is getting shit for being entrenched in his view, when itās exactly the same on the other side. No-one seems prepared to flex even slightly with the other side.
Is it just that Barry shouts longer, louder and more often, rather than the argument itself?
Itās also irrelevant that Iāve had issues in the past tbh, because if I did have issues because of that Iād be playing the manā¦
Youāve been deep in the pit with him on more than one occasion and it has annoyed the shit out of you.
Plus he is more than happy to give out shit himself. Iām all for freedom of speech but Iām also aware of the old maxim that if you dish it out, you better be prepared to take it back.
Per character, he isnāt whining about getting pelters. He doesnāt care. He thinks heās won anyway.
What he doesnāt realise that in all his many attempts to stand shoulder to shoulder with some of the brains on here, he looks like the village fucking idiot.
I guess the issue is that neither argument is being presented well on this thread, so thatās why he doesnāt look so bad from a detached point of view.
The gas got turned off yesterday
Today Corporate America have been in touch offering me a role to promote their Solar Power farms.
I mean ffs.
They enclosed a detailed White Paper analysing the total power produced here and showed that it would need x number of farms.
Based on their output data.
From their farms in?
