  1. Yes identifiable and with a reputation to diminish. That’s why one can call posters Nazi cunts with impunity
  2. I was thinking the same. Furthermore to libel someone you have to diminish their reputation which means they had to have a meaningful reputation to start with. I would imagine that’s a pretty high bar to clear for an anonymous poster on a football forum.
  3. I think it’s a binary thing, either you like steak tartare a lot or you hate it. Oysters are the same. I don’t know about Quail’s eggs being a risk. If I stop posting you’ll know why.
  4. Steak tartare with raw quail’s eggs. Very tasty.
  5. Teenagers who eat all the biscuits but then leave the empty packets in the cupboard so you don't buy anymore then when you go to get a biscuit for your mid morning break they have all gone. 3 more years then they can fuck off to University and buy their own biscuits.
  6. Talking about respite care for a family member today who looks after an elderly relative and it slowly dawned on me as we conversed that Mrs Willard thought respite care meant the carer not the patient went away for a few weeks. Like a holiday camp for middle aged women whilst they leave their elderly relative uncared for at home. She genuinely always thought that.
  7. Interesting fact about that film, the 3 main characters are never in the same scene and what’s more 2 never appear in the same shot.
  8. I think the length of the phrase is important. My source says “When an adverbial phrase begins a sentence, it’s often followed by a comma, but it doesn’t have to be, especially if it’s short.” Personally I’m not a fan of a comma before a single adverbial but I’m open to being corrected .
  9. This is the stuff. Comma placement is a controversial subject. I’m not sure about commas after one word.
  10. Argh !! I also spelt only as owner. Inevitable really.
  11. This is thread about grammar. Things that annoy you or more positively things that you love. For example, people who confuse I.e with e.g. That sort of thing. Personally I love a semi colon, makes my day if I get a chance to use one. Anyway I’ll probably be the owner poster but I’ll have an outlet.
  12. Well played. Not sure about that comma but I’ll let it slide. Im definitely going to start a grammar pedantry thread.
  13. Perfect day. I’m convinced it’s “drinks and Gruyère in the park” Everyone else thinks it’s “drink Sangria” but they’re wrong,
  14. Cunt’s. The opinion belongs to the cunt.
  15. The Luftwaffe kick started a lot of urban regeneration in south London
  16. This constant rain and wind is driving me mad. Hailstones in London today. Can’t do anything on the allotment.
  17. Here’s a simple debating trick. Substitute Jews for black people in that post and see if you are still so relaxed about it and if not why ? “I think it's probably about time the narrative was changed. Hundreds of years have been spent wondering why black people are always the victims of just about anything and everything, probably time to start asking why”
  18. Beans on a fry up to be banned. Time to listen to the majority.
