Prince Andrew would not be impressed.

I wish this man had a non political constitutional role. He was just funny. A bit incompetent for leading a party, though.

I am simple man. I see 30 Rock reference, I upvote.

Nazis literally cannot be talked down. Its part of how they consume information. It's really depressing–but once they hit critical mass there's nothing to be done.

"Keep calm and eat the rich" is also good. Keeps the original pattern. Love it.

Oh, I'm more of a pacifist, and someone on this platform recently convinced me that it's kinda difficult to occupy the moral high ground while also laughing at jokes about killing the 'right kind' of people. It's annoying, but if The Axis Of Evil are whipping up violent rhetoric about what a threat women / minorities/ experts / lefties / non conformists are, it wouldn't really help to put up stickers about killing them.

Bit counterproductive.

(I absolutely reserve the right to keep proclaiming 'eat the rich' on a regular basis, because that's not violence so much as a communal nourishment from the glorious circle of life).

'Keep calm and convert nazis' is more accurate, but it does sound a little like I'm pushing catholicism (weird) or the gay agenda (would be funny but best not encourage the delusion that sexuality is a choice). 'Keep calm and re-educate / deradicalise / discourage' also works, but gives the distressing impression that I'm aiming for more intelligent, moderate or temporarily glum nazis which, not really.

'Keep calm and get off the internet' would probably be the most helpful, concise message but somewhere between aspirational and hypocritical.

'Keep calm and defend diversity' captures the main problem with nazis, but it sounds a bit 'placards and knitting'.

I'm struggling to find much beyond 'keep calm and eat the rich, the intolerant, and the men who seek to enfeeble other men by creating a dependance on thinking machines which inevitably lead the newly unthinking masses into the servitude of the men who made the machines', say which point it may as well just say 'Join The Butlerian Jihad, meetings Thursdays at 19:00'.

Which actually works, but it is quite a long way from the original message.

"Keep calm and kill a nazi"? Might not be the exact message you want but it keeps the original snappiness.

I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore

German rail is not doing too hot these days either.

I would honestly kinda like to print out a bunch of these and put them everywhere those knobs have put a flag.

But then it occurred to me that this pretty much how Elon and trump have wound up a bunch of mouth breathing idiots into a racist frenzy that is literally hell bent on destroying the country, and I'd need to write "mad about the racist fuckwits and government complicity", which would rather dilute the message.

It also leads to uncomfortable questions like 'hang on, is anger actually transformative or helpful, or does it just lead to more angry people' and 'hang on hang on, aren't Musk and Tommy Ten Names spending an awful lot of money telling people to get mad? Isn't that the driving force behind the most toxic social media platforms? Isn't that just what rage bait is?', and anyway long story short between the time I wrote the first paragraph and now, my view has changed to -

• Antisocial media and pro-nazi agitators want us to get angry (or 'mad', in American English) Zen the fuck up to resist. Wield calmness like a weapon. Refuse to emote on command

Yeah nah yeah

How did you know my morning routine?

Go to your window, stick your head out and yell: "I'm mad as hell, and I'm not gonna take this any more!"

And Rage On!

The little engine that didn't wanna.

By a mile? How many miles of operational rail do we have? Now how many miles do you have? The US has approximately 140,000, mi. There is approximately 10,000 mi of rail across Great Britain and Northern Ireland........

As my British friend Tom used to say

Mate you fucking flunked your maths schooling didn't ya.

Nah mate that’s a massive exaggeration. US rail is absolutely centuries behind UK rail.

why not

It's very dependent on which region, which route and which train company you're travelling with.

From a Yorkshire perspective, if your train runs North-South through bigger cities i.e. Edinburgh, Newcastle, York, Leeds, The South etc, without stopping at small in-between stations, you get 100 people on a 10 carriage long futuristic aerodynamic LNER Azuma Class 800 train, that feels like a luxury private jet and travels at 125mph.

If your train travels East-West and stops at places like Halifax, Bradford, Wakefield, Selby, Hull, but also stops at little in-between stations called stuff like Boggy Fence, Coaltown, Upper Frogbottom, Chough, Milton-upon-Jeremy and Thribblewick, you get 400 people squashed onto a 2 carriage Northern Rail Sprinter, that feels like a livestock wagon and travels at 30mph. It's perfectly pleasant outside of commuter times, to be fair.

When the train is stopping at stations 5 miles apart, there's not a lot of room for big fancy trains to do big fancy train things like "accelerate smoothly and aerodynamically" and "brake gently and quietly like a falling leaf".

Because I found it amusing

The Class 800 may have seats made from cardboard, but they do at least look like they were designed this century.

I used to work at Paddington Station, I'm sure we had streamlined trains.

Also, don't we have pendolinos anymore?

Gotta admit, the old school high air resistance trains look cute though.

Don't forget America!

Laughs in amtrak

Well, when they're not striking.
