    Tell me shit people say that pisses you off

    Any crappy word that anyone under the age of 15 thinks is good. I mean "lit". Seriously? Or "woke". Oh and double negatives. Cracks me up when people use double negatives. Not pisses me off but people beating around the bush about death. "He's past on", "he's in a better place". Say it how it...

    Have you had the COVID?

    Haven't had it, if I have I'm A-symptomatic . Currently in isolation though as my father in law has it, we live with my girlfriends parents. It's bad. Hes about 50 and it's wiped him out. It's like a bad flu. No healthy but not really unhealthy. Eats bad but does a lot of walking in his job so...

    African-American you look up to the most?

    Same sex marriage. He was for it and made it legal. He actually looked into legalising drug use and whilst President, a few states legalised it. Obamacare. We have the NHS so for me, Obamacare was the right thing to do. I saw loads of stuff about people getting pissy for paying for other peoples...

    Losing power would suck. How do former Presidents/Prime ministers cope?

    The thing is with the US you can only be in office for 8 years max. To become President you will know this so you won't be too heart broken leaving the White House. It's a short term role. I'd imagine it would be hard to leave but with all that pressure, lives depending on you, economies...

    Times when you were mentally or physically broken

    Honestly? Probably now. Got back from travelling last March, got a temp job for three months. Out of work for a month and got the job I'm currently in. Wood working but honestly, I hate the people and the hours are a drag. I pretty much leave my house at 630am and get back at 6pm. All for crap...

    African-American you look up to the most?

    Barack Obama. I know he wasn't the most popular President of the US but I'd have been happy. I liked his policies. He worked hard to get there. He always expressed respect. I get the Musk thing too. But Charlize Theron? Look up to? Yikes.. plus I don't want to come across as a prick but she's...

    Soccer league with no flopping?

    That is absolute rubbish. They dive in Sunday league. To answer your question TS, just watch rugby.

    SPANISH SPEAKERS - What Spanish-language accent do you find the hardest to understand?

    Coming from England, so hearing the Spanish from Spain more often than if I was from North America (or obviously SA), that's easiest to understand. Doesn't help I've been to Spain about 12 times too. Hardest. From really brief encounters. Maybe like a Chile. My girlfriend who spent time in...

    Best things to see/places to go in England/Wales outside London...

    Watch some Rugby. Depends when you are here and how much to spend. Obviously after Covids gone and crowds are back. A Welsh Six Nations game at The Millenium Stadium in Cardiff would be amazing. As for places to visit. Lake District, Peak District, Cornwall and Devon. York is nice, so is Bath...

    Things you refuse to skimp on.

    Twinings is a lot more popular outside of the UK than in it. Twinings flavoured tea seems to be a lot more popular. I mean, it's still not popular as flavoured tea isn't a common staple in a cupboard here. I don't know a single person in the UK who has actually wanted a tea that was Twinings. I...

    Escaping the Rat Race: What School Failed to Teach You About Money

    Lots of blame about bad financial decisions are mainly on education (or lack of) or actual companies who gain from peoples idleness. If you want a meal out, a cup of coffee out, a nice car, a holiday, do so. But the main reason is, can you afford it. If it's a yes. Is it worth it? 99% of bad...

    The Worst Country Song Ever Made

    A song called Truck Yeah. I mean, majority of country is lame but this is another level.

    What's your favorite alternative to alcohol?

    I thought that using straws has been proved to be a massive myth? THe arguement is, if theres acid in your mouth, it'll attack the enamel. Unless the straw is actually going into your throat, if you taste anything acidic, it'll get to your enamel. Also "Red Bull and a sleeping aid"? What's...

    What are some of the most overused movie plots?

    Americans saving the World. So many films where theres a global problem yet it's always an American who chooses or gets asked to deal with the problem. Any event seems to happen in America. UFOs landing on Earth? It'll happen in America. Oh and whilst we are on this, stupid comic hero films...

    Razor vs Electric Shaver

    I use a beard trimmer. Closest setting, plastic off, no stubble, if I want a bit of stubble, plastic back on and change the setting. I grew up with an electric shaver then went to razors but Ive been using the beard trimmer now for about 5 years and it's my preference. Razor marketing makes...

    UFC 246 Pre-Fight Press Conference Video DISCUSSION THREAD (8 PM ET/5 PM PT)

    Okay so I scrolled through the whole thread and didn't see the question I was going to ask. Who was that white guy who dressed, acted and waved his hands around like a rapper? Act your age! But yeah, press conference was what I expected but the questions asked were awful. Does anyone know how...

    Hot and humid weather sucks

    Currently in Australia but I'm from England. I've lived in Canada for a year also. I think it's just me but I don't mind the weather. I would rather take a -30 Toronto day or a 40 degree day in Queensland, Australia over a 10 degree, always cloudy, wet England in the winter. Hell, England in...

    My third MMA fight is in two weeks

    I've never fought and not trained so fair play! Hats off! How did you start? I'm back in England in a few months and hoping to get my health up, start swimming and was looking into getting into sports. Thinking wrestling or/and boxing. Are you allowed to knee in amateur MMA? I watched a...
