Policy re: kids calling a friend, skipping one, calling the next one, skipping one, etc.

They've banned kids from calling each other mate.

[Cletus]

It's just a bullshit policy to stop kids trying to score bananas and watermelon.

[guttermouth]

Every kid wins a trophy

[Madmya]

It is pretty bullshit.

[Cletus]

I'm blaming gay Muslims.

No such thing..

Not quite true. There are 5.

Officially unplugging from news today. Is the depraved stupidity of humans getting worse or are there just more cameras?

Probably a little of both I'd assume. Maybe it's just me as I've gotten older I find I'm less tolerant of stupidity so I notice it more...

What was the straw that broke the camel's back?

[Twit]

Was it the woman waving around a child's head? Because that's pretty fucken fucked.

[Peppermint Lounge]

Yep. Can't comprehend how fucken fucked that is.

[Cletus]

I'll assume it wasn't a Buddhist and not look that up..

[Hercy]

She's not one of the murdering Buddhists from Myanmar, so no.

... I don't even know what to say about this.

Buddhists hate it when Muslims burn their monks. It's a monk's job to incinerate himself, so I'm calling that one an isolated incident that happened four years ago. Maybe the Russians will be far less bothered by the beheading of a child though..

What the actual fuck? Spearmint Tictacs are discontinued. It makes no sense. I'm so angry about it. I literally have the spearmint tictac barcode tattooed on me. No fucking sense at all. Peppermint tictacs suck arse by comparison.

[Hercy]

According to Google it happened about 3 years ago, so maybe that kind of sales frequency is the reason that it's discontinued.

[Cletus]

I had a lot of them. I've just started running out and had been buying peppermint because there wasn't spearmint. Now I have 5 spearmint tic tacs left. I can't bring myself to finish the box. I'm a bit distressed about it. Spearmint is an awesome flavour. I just called ferrero and they confirmed it's discontinued. Yet orange flavour is still out there. I hate orange tic tacs. The modern world is fucked. Who the fuck buys these new fruit flavoured tic tacs? Excluding those limited banana tic tacs. They were amazing. Still not as good as spearmint though.

[Twit]

Spearmint and peppermint are both members of the botanical genus Mentha in the Lamiaceae family so they are closely related, but peppermint has the higher menthol content and contains menthone in carboxyl esters which gives it a punchier flavour. Much like an isomorphic homomorphism admits the inverse, your weak-sauce affinity for the lesser form of mint only serves to anneal the pulchritude of the terminal.

(if you squint your ears that might actually read as something like "I reckon peppermint's better, cunt")

[Cletus]

Oh I got that. Definitely why I preferred Spearmint.

[Gamma]

Tictacs lost me when they started colouring the candy itself. If they wanted them to appear to be two different colours in the same box, they should have found a cost-effective way to make them look like that from the outside while still being the uniform white.

This is fucking cheating bullshit:

[Cletus]

Well, when I was very young, spearmint tic tacs were green, orange were orange and peppermint were white. None of the coloured boxes they changed to years later. And the green spearmint ones actually tasted somewhat different. Colouring them is actually old school.

[Gamma]

Well shit. I'm going to have to rethink my position on coloured Tictacs in light of this new information. I just really liked the Bertie Botts element of them all looking the same once out of the box.

Ok, so in the Swedish town of 'Ostersund' women can't go out after dark anymore because of the violent assault rapes by Islamic immigrants.

Yayy, immigration.

Missed you, itch. where you been?
