These were basketball fans, and for a completely unimportant match. It was quite incongruous with the atmosphere in the venue and the attitude of the other team’s fans. Very weird!

Yes I’ve not had good experiences with Israeli sports fans, they take it much too seriously.

That’s not really an accurate translation of 傻屄 (shǎbī), it’s a very vulgar way to say “stupid cunt”, and you’d usually substitute the second character for, e.g., 比/逼 or even an actual “B” because the character itself is considered offensive (meaning components are 尸 “body” + 穴 “hole/cavity”, worsened by the fact 尸 is actually the “corpse” radical).

But a 22-year old is a child, also.

Thanks for the suggestions! Will definitely do the wonton dumplings this week.

Does anybody cook anymore? I have started cooking again for my girlfriend and honestly it’s like having another job, it takes fucking ages every day. When I lived on my own I would sometimes go months without a hot meal, because realistically, how can you work full time and attend to the daily tasks of living? Genuinely, where is the time? I’m out for twelve hours of every day.

Just let people have fun, what the fuck.

I mean, that’s a lot. If it’s tit-for-tat, eye for an eye, whatever… that’s wildly disproportionate.

I guess I should have qualified that to exclude individual assassinations, otherwise you’d have to include snipers and whatever. I almost don’t believe that “knife missile” is real (quotation marks because the only real knife missiles are Culture technology).

I believe the devil’s advocate argument would be that, based on Hezbollah’s internal communications, the Mossad intercepted a shipment of pagers which were being purchased to replace their (potentially compromised) mobile phones, knowing that these were - in theory - being distributed exclusively to Hezbollah operatives. That would make it the most precise military strike of all time.

Everyone who launches a rocket is accepting the possibility of “collateral damage”, but this is surely the most surgical of surgical strikes in history. And yet, yes, they must have accepted the risk of bystander casualties, which just serves to highlight how awful that logic is. It’s definitely not worse than randomly firing into a crowd, though.

because women are delicate little flowers, of course

Presumably you could have typed it without losing control of your fingers, though.

you are penis-like in your dickery

They don’t know what reactionary means, they think it means having a reaction to the news or something.

Capitalism’s spatial fix.

It’s crazy, isn’t it.

I see, his statement is in response to a specific threat from Ukraine to use British and American-made missiles to strike Russia across the border. There was talk of them receiving permission to do so within the day.

Sure, it’s relaying a statement by a country’s political leader. It’s literally a piece of news.

Many beautiful women that never smile.
