Well yes, what else, after all it is still Diwali.
Haha the festival of light. I heard folk talking about this on the radio trying to explain what it was and it just sounded like some sort of family gathering and nothing more. They talked for about 15mins just repeating that they get together and eat dinner and tell stories, it just left me thinking wtf have I wasted my time listening to?!?! 🙃
 
I’ve been reading about the disparity between what is and isn’t stockpiled for potentially disruptive events (such as Brexit). The food supply apparently isn’t something that merits extra securing—and as a matter of principle the government has said it will only respond to some (somewhat
anticipated) food shortage after some crisis occurs. It is interesting, not least because the government claimed it couldn’t have anticipated recent PPE shortages—after being warned a few years ago.

Are we going to hear again about ‘events that nobody could’ve predicted’? I expect all the stops have been pulled out to make sure there is no interruption of the British horse meat exports, to our friends on the continent.

As an Irish citizen, the British attitude to feeding the the less wealthy members of society tends to catch my eye. Is all of this on the Labour Party’s radar, with Brexit getting nearer?

It was, we're somewhat distracted.
 
Yes, he types his own answer in first and then suggests the reference is the result of a wider survey. I dare say if you type in ‘Radis is a twat’ some authorities on here will come up, confirming it is undeniably the case.
Yeah he did that yesterday re Brexit.

And alongside twat, I’d add bully. The cowards always are.
 
Just for a laugh, because I have slight humour with me this morning, I have indeed just googled ‘Radis is a twat’, & although I was offered multiple, & varied, pornographic content, & obliging links, there was a recent 'solo' entry that read:

"I don't really feel like getting into the thick of things today, except to say that Radis Noir is an insufferable twat."

So the assertion appears to be correct, although he's considered to be of the 'insufferable' variety.
You may even find a thread on this very forum calling him a c*** mate. And with quite a few people agreeing as well. Of course, they’re all ‘trolls’ & ‘racists’, they would be, wouldn’t they.🤔
 
Yet it's astonishing how many people do suffer me. And more than that, how many seem to go out of their way to attract my attention fairly regularly even though they quite clearly think I'm a twat. People are strange.
What’s it like being so disliked on an internet forum Radis?

I don’t think anyone goes out their way to attract your attention, you just slither out from under your rock to cause trouble.
 
Someone else getting the job isn't being replaced.

Actors worry more about actors who look similar to them because they can be the one that casting directors think of when casting for a role they're suitable for.
 
Not being a despicable racist isn't 'woke'. It's common decency.
I totally agree, but what some people on here class as a ‘despicable racist’ is laughable.

I agree about the advert point, I notice it all the time. It doesn’t bother me in itself, but there does not seem to be such thing as a white heterosexual couple in advertising land anymore.

It’s just painfully obvious these adverts have been thought up in a box ticking diversity meeting, it’s embarrassing.

They're all actors.

Skin colour doesn't matter, get them in a room & they'll all slag off their agent, tell you about the thing they did with X star & sit going over their lines with a highlighter pen.
 
You're up early Real Fountain
Ah, the old ‘ 2 usernames’ jibe. How original.

It’s funny how my suggestion from last week has never been followed up, for the mods to prove who does & doesn’t have 2 accounts on here.

Still, I suppose to expose that a world wide Internet forum only has about 10 users with multiple accounts would be a tad embarrassing wouldn’t it.

I know they’re all actors. And actresses, I don’t go in for this new woke bullshit of erasing that word from history.

It doesn’t bother me seeing it, it’s the thought process behind it. It’s so obviously thought out to show how ‘diverse’ the advertisers are. And I was just making the point to say it is true what @reelfountain said, & to point it out is not racist.

They wouldn't do that.

Anyway, regardless, you echo her a lot.

You, Reel, Stephen & Gash may as well be the same person - though Gash is not quite as racist & nice about gay people.

So just to confirm, you also think I’m racist?

And when I have I been nasty about Gay people for f***s sake???

Who cares? We're always presenting some image.

1970s light entertainment didn't exactly turn out to be as family friendly as it was trying to be.

Borderline.

Reel is a homophobe - I didn't want to lump Gash in with that even if it is just another persona of the same person.

Borderline. Thanks for making me laugh.

And why wouldn’t they prove who is & isn’t who on here? Not because out of a population of 7 billion people, 10-15 users is a bit embarrassing is it?

I admit, I am 1 of those at the moment, but the fact there are probably more people in my street now having a shit than there are use this site in the whole world kind of says something.
