273kelvin replies on Dec 20, 2018:
@Jacar I do not think of this as female demands. Rather than what works. "I am responding to all the posts from women deriding men for not doing as they want us too." How far does this go? Shower, shave, clean and trim nails, change your sheets, go somewhere nice for a date? Of course you would do all those things to meet someone because if you didnt then you would deserve to stay alone. Your post said basically "I say hello why is that not good enough?". Well its not working so lets look at why. Men are 3.5 times more likely to msg a woman 1st on online dating sites. So women get dozens of msgs a day. This is not females calling the play. This is about what gets you laid. If you keep on just messaging "hello" and it doesnt work. Are you prepared to do something else? Let me put it this way. Your car wont start. The battery is ok, as is gas etc. So you figure out that its the starter motor. You hit the solenoid (I dont know if you yanks call it that) with a hammer. It has worked sometimes in the past but this time it does not. Do you keep hitting it or do you bite the bullet and get a new starter? "Repeatedly women are posting about how we are not adequate." It is not we are inadequate, more like dumb or rather deaf. Women say they hate cock pics but guys keep sending them, they say that they hate msgs saying "Hi babe you look hot" but still they come. You have said that you just say "hello" and they say "Well I get loads of them why should I respond to yours?". You say well it should be enough....mmmm. I posted some advice in my comment. Also there was a good post on here a few months back which was gay eye for a straight guy on profiles. Yours does not even have a picture of yourself. Do you really think that much of your allure that they will automatically beat a path to your door? Think again bud because there a plenty of fish in the pond but you have to use a decent bait. You can get defensive about this or do something different? Up to you but if you choose the former then dont run out of kleenex.
Okay.

@Donotbelieve Viagra or its cheaper generic Sildenafil is very good for the evening. Cialis is more likely to last all weekend and more of a marathon than a sprint. One thing though I recommend that you get some lub too because he will be like 20 again. Except it can take a long time for the guy to cum. Sounds great I know but after the 3rd hour you might want to take a rest.

@eStop The trick is to tighten up the truss rod and reduce the saddle till it starts to buzz. Then slacken off the truss rod till it stops buzzing. (The nut rarely needs adjustments). Remember to leave it a day between adjustments, as it will take that long for the guitar to settle Further improvements can be made by stoning down the frets but this is something you have to be careful about. Its best done with a new sharpening stone thats usually used for chisels etc. You can find loads of tutorials on youtube

@Trajan61 You dont live here and I dont live there. I cannot say that I wold not own a gun if I was in your hood.. What I can say is that you would not need one in mine. I live close to the city center. It is quite high crime (for England) yet I do not even lock my flat door when Im home. You seem to think that you need a gun to protect yourself and property. I have been in several situations where had a gun been around I or someone else would have killed someone. I will not go into details but this was not a home invasion. Trust me that if I had a gun at the time I would be in jail right now and I know many others that would be too. Maybe thats why the USA has the biggest prison population in the 1st world? What I cannot understand is the reasons against gun control. From what I hear its only trying to stop impulse buys, those with criminal records and/or unstable psychiatric history and the sale of assault weapons. To me that seems quite a reasonable stance. All of the no control arguments from the NRA could also be used to justify North Korea having nukes

@TomMcGiverin If you are talking strickly left and right then yes. However if you look at practical politics and policies then Obama care is privatized health care only part funded by the state. Which is very close to to Torys. The US is by nature a conservative country. Your revolution was 242 years ago and was instigated by rich landowners not wanting to pay taxes. The UK has had a series of revolutions of differing scales. That has over its history overturned the power of the monarchy, the church and the landed aristocracy. Beneath the facade of royal weddings etc.bubbles a radical left wing whos reason dete is "eat the rich". Take gun control for example. If it was the UK? The aftermath of Columbine would have led a campaign to repeal the 2nd amendment. This stance may not have worked completely but if enough support was generated then subsequent reforms would have been the compromise position. The US left try for small reforms and struggle. As I type this I am watching a report on fracking. This has been a hot topic in local and national politics for the past few years. Unlike the US all the profits after the drilling company has taken its cut will go to the state, not to the local land owners. Subsequently there is little incentive for locals to want this. A very strong ground route opposition ranging from local authorities voting it down to sjws barricading drilling sites has slowed it down and made it very difficult to go ahead. Fracking will probably go on anyway but it will have to make damn sure it crosses all "T"s and dots all "I"s.

The only time I have known something like this was in the 80s. It was suspected that the local hash was laced with small amounts of heroin because it had been cut so often and was too weak. H was a lot cheaper then.

Is one theological and the other racial? Then how about judaism or jews? The problem in a democracy is when the majority find views abhorrent it is difficult to defend the right to express them. How far did the burning of that poppy go towards shouting fire in a crowded theater? I am sure that the prosecution argued that given the civil unrest in NI recent past and the sectarian violence that still lurks beneath the surface. Any public display of this sort could result in bloodshed but was that their intent? If the intention is to goad others to commit unlawful acts then there is a clear case but then we are in the realm of thought crime. It is a crime in the UK to abuse someone using the N word. The word itself is not banned but the abuse is. Therein lies the dividing line. You have freedom of speech unless you are curtailing others rights.

@UUNJ You are certainly entitled to your opinion and I do not dismiss it. I suppose you have to know Jane to understand the situation. She is a highly intelligent, hard working mom. Working in a very stressful job. Her natural exuberant personality bubbles over and lightens any room that she is in. Such a character can make a real difference in a workplace that deals with the most distressing situations. Sick and often dying children can be the norm. Failing that just the act of taking blood samples off a screaming handicapped kid would send most to seek other employment. A little latitude I think is forgivable here. Not everything can be bound by hard and fast rules

@OwlInASack It is always going to be a balancing act. Nowadays we have the far right spouting racial abuse, fundamental muslims doing much the same but with far more terrible consequences. Of course any reasonable society would want to curb such excesses but how far do we take this? When does this start to be censoring legitimate protest and opposition? and who decides what that is? Take the case I mentioned in an earlier comment. Two teenagers from Belfast burnt a poppy on FB. Now I do not condone this act but I believe they had a right to do so. You may not agree but you did not grow up with soldiers patrolling your streets. They got 3 months in jail. Similar sentences have been handed out to radical muslims who have done the same. Is it too big a stretch to sanction footballers who kneel? Would 45 love the powers that Putin has? It is up to us, yes us to be vigilant and protect our society not only from the abuses of freedom but also the abuses of power and we have to go that extra mile for things that we disagree with. Because so many of the good things we take for granted have been won by people ready to say things that got them behind bars..

@Amzungu2 If you have some limp dick, more money than brains idiot splashing out $10,000s to kill these things. Then theyre are worth keeping around. The economic incentive is there. Just as tourism provides that in more stable countries like Kenya. If the local king fish is getting his cut of a fat wad then he will want to keep the gravy train rolling and not wipe them out.

Properly managed hunting could be the only answer. I know its abhorrent and disgusting but unless you make these animals a more valuable resource than what their bodies bring. Then the extinction will continue unabated. A local poacher will get about $100 for a weeks work. That dentist payed $14,000 to shoot that lion. Just a thought but there are more elk in the US now than when the white men came.

@thinktwice Not being shackled by a written constitution helps. To my mind it often goes too far. One case that springs to mind is two 17yr olds from Belfast jailed for 3 months for burning a poppy and posting it on FB. Often when you clamp down on things its like putting a damper on a fire. It just increases the oxygen.

273kelvin replies on Dec 12, 2018:
I have posted some of his stuff before. You can find much more on his website smash-flops. The songs are very different. Firstly because they start with Clives words not the tune. Secondly because Clives words are unusual. They also managed to kill off any musical career with a satirical album "Live Libel" where they ridiculed (what were then) contemporary artists such as James Paler, Leonard Conman and Black Funk Rex. (the sleave notes are hilarious) Julie Covington did an album of their songs and they have a small but enthusiastic elitist cult following. Which includes myself and Stephen Fry. https://www.peteatkin.com/pa.htm

Tell me who is served by this "hot topic"? How does this improve society? Will it prevent one single case of date rape? From what I glean from the song its about a guy trying to persuade himself into a womans knickers (at worst). The optimum word there is "persuade" not force. If my post is a way to bring real problems such as homelessness to light then yes and I make no apology for the manor of doing so. Far better to concentrate our efforts on those without bothering about sjws being offended on our behalf about bs

@kjsgenie If its been a long time for you then it may have been a long time for him too. A chap can get nevious, which does nothing for ones libido. Its a cliche to say that its different for girls but from our perspective comatose is acceptable (not great but acceptable) anything else is a bonus. Whereas we have to perform. If you give him another chance try and relax him. Perhaps on his home turf where he picks the music etc. Not a permanent way to go in the relationship just a chance for him to shine.
