I'd rather listen to fireworks a couple or three days a year than the incessant, random barking of all the fucking dogs around us. Not to mention clearing up the cat shit on the front grass every few days. Fucking hate your pets. They're noisy and dirty and I have to stand in the cold clearing up after them.

    Olivia Colman. Everything she's in is better for having her. She even made car insurance ads good back in the day as the lovely Bev. Loads of successes, but she still seems to have that air of fragility about her, that it could all come crashing down at any moment...

    It's not always about big Sometimes the little things add up. I've ditched my company's Dropbox accounts for Sync, which to the best of my knowledge is Canadian, and done away with my personal free Google drive backup storage to actually pay to use Jottacloud which is Norwegian.

    No Facebook or Instagram, or Reddit now that went to shit. Just figuring out my way on here.

    No more apple TV, netflix or paramount or purchases from Amazon etc. I'll go into town now and buy all the screen covers and cables and shit from actual FKN shops instead.

    Stopped eating at anything American - never did Macdonald's anyway but KFC, Popeyes, and all your shite coffee chains have gone out the window.

    Gone back to using cash instead of visa and MasterCard debits. Waiting for Wero to come to the UK.

    So I expect it to make no difference to how many billions all the US Tech cunts have in their pockets, but at least I get to have a little, warm , fuzzy feeling every time I see a Tesla and shout 'nazi' at them, knowing I'm contributing as little as possible to the us economy.

    I get that someone, somewhere, up the chain from whatever I buy is a US conglomerate or whatever, but the less I feed in at the bottom the less they get out at the top.

    So yh. 'Big' tech probably won't notice. Not for a while anyway. But the shift began when Trump started to wave his fists around and stain the US in his orange shit. And then they voted him in for a second term. So fk 'em.

    Reap what you sow.

    You absolute tw#t!

    I bloody knew it. Well f#ck you. It's my birthday in October and you can bet your neighbourly arse I'll only be inviting the other half of the street to the local. I'm sure they'll all come and we'll have a much better time than you all did.

    Apart from the dicks at number 5 obviously. But f#ck them and their 4 cars. Parking all up the road and keeping their drive empty so it's easier to put their bin out a day early.

    Dicks.

    If he has a 'contract' with the Government then what's he worrying about? Surely they're good for the money?

    If not then can't he just go after Trump for $1 billion dollars for being a 'mean guy, a stupid guy'? Cough, cough...

    I think the EU would need some sort of 'Brenter' poll first, to see if the spoilt brat of the family would be welcomed back, what with all our needy requirements about keeping our own currency etc. I can't see it personally for a long time as there's still that resistance to change things that are viewed as 'ours' and changing them to something viewed as 'theirs'. We never really fully committed to it the first time. Hopefully we'll see the need to join the 'middle powers' in some kind of alliance though.
