I was gone for a few months and the OT forums turn weirdly right wing?

It went down slightly since I bought my koala but it will probably go up in 2029 for sure. Start with this. https://silvergoldbull.ca/silvergoldbull-silver-bar If it goes up $5/oz you make $50. Sorry I can't translate that into £ sterling.

We're we ever anything else?

This one is shinier than the one I just bought but I like patina.

No. I did have a bit of reflux but the crayfish is frozen to get here. So no surprise.

TMI, 2D. Perhaps choose to share less.

Some claim red bell peppers are the best source of vitamin C per calorie.

I imagine you pronounce that with a soft I sound.

Ah, ok, I maybe get your point. You feel that my thread isn't worth discussing?

I wouldn't say that. Maybe I'm just not qualified.

Lol, you don't really need to be qualified to talk to me. Just be less of an arse next time, if that's ok.

Who is calling whom names here just for not caring about the political climate of the board, then deciding he better not make your thread into a discussion about precious metals?

I was not mocking your pronunciation of vitamin. Mine might be the one that is incorrect.

I think DY Bot has got into 2dimes' account.

Sounds like we had similar Fridays. I had some super spicy noodles at dinner and my ass exploded pretty much the second I got home.

You should get out of the thread too Mr swdk, he's just here to textually attack people. Leave him be while he assists his friend The Ram to make accusations of dukasaur making up stories about women being oppressed and seeking asylum. He probably thinks the government of Pakistan is being maligned by Fake News.

He's probably just here promoting Guardian subscriptions or something.

Looks like the forum is finally reflecting reality eh, or don't you prescribe to life on earth?

I've got a question for you. Let's say a woman gets one of those sex changes or gender reassignment in your lingo. She's now got a cock and a little bit of pubescent facial hair, would you still rim it?

You could just move to reddit. I hear that website's majority lefty.
Thought that might actually be though for you as they moderate against trolls there.

That's kind of the problem with the world, though, isn't it? People migrating to echo chambers where they can hear their own ideas repeated back to them?

While it's nice when I come across someone who agrees with me on something, the joy is mild and brief. True personal growth only comes from debating ideas with people whose ideas are different, sometimes even radically different.

I agree with you, but I don't think most people here are worth debating. It's mostly just sophistry and argument evasion, or worse name calling and heated statements.

The average, English-speaking resident of MegaCity One doesn't know what the word sophistry means but waauw - who is from a country the size of an average Costco that has three official languages - just drops it into his sentences without a care in the world.
