Re: Stupid question of the day

Why don't I sweat? I mean I can go without shower for days and I have no hint of sweat, only délicat odour to eik elds. Thinking of it, maybe going with shower makes people sweat? It's a spate of metal. I know that I do have sweat glands because when I hit the løype hard, I break sweat, or even a po...

Re: Stupid question of the day

Watched it too. Quite good. The Man in The High Castle is good too. I started watching it, but the ongoing possible prelude to WW3 outside of the screen made me stop. I got the sense of schisophrenia PK Dick might have developed in the war-torn, uncertain world (as if who's winning wasn't a matter o...

Whom do you want to marry?

I think the BBC should arrange a tour of Auschwitz for Lineker.
People of Bucha or Khan Shaykhun fled from the same (death).

Re: Your rants here

I got to know folk from all around the country, from Dorset to Cumbria, via various vegan/animal welfare/film extra/etc. gigs. I just feel unusually comfortable among the English (and probably all Britons). Interacting with them is almost like reading a script, pleasantly predictable. They also seem...

Re: norway

Alcohol is very expensive indeed. The guys from whom I'm renting the farm had their parents from Romania (accidentally the Danube Delta area neighbouring with my homeland bogs) living here for some time. There's a big culture of making/drinking light fruity wine there. The first thing they mentioned...

Re: Your rants here

Just 32 per cent of British voters now think the UK was right to leave the EU, a new poll has found. The figure from pollster YouGov is the lowest on record and the latest continuation of a trend stretching back to last year. A full 56 per cent now explicitly think Britain was wrong to leave, w I t...

Re: is twitter for mentally ill people?

One day sounds a bit boastful, but he’s probably not totally wrong. With the US siding with Putin, Ukraine’s chances do not look so great.
There are no chances. It's victory or death.
