I just have one question: how? |
|
| |
Well, at least it's not in other:general |
|
| |
Just say no... and mean it. Mandates can be shoved up assets. |
|
| |
Yes, how dare they insist that we drive on the right side of the road, not plumb our toilet water drain into the street, and give up lead-based paint. |
|
| |
Or wear underwear on our faces to prevent the smell of someones farts...
... unless seated of course. |
|
| |
...or changing the dictionary definition of the word Vaccine to remove the word "immunity" and then replace it with the words "helps with", technically rendering Aspirin as a vaccine. |
|
| |
The entire Plandemic was a fucking joke. |
|
| |
We should probably switch the subject to illegal immigration... funny how one immediately followed the other. |
|
| |
...almost like it had been planned for a very long time. |
|
| |
//Try to prove me wrong// |
|
| |
I offer in evidence the fact that no- one's laughing. |
|
| |
No- one at all. (Autocorrect seems to like the space after the hyphen, but not before.) |
|
| |
"no one" is the proper spelling. A hyphen is used to connect two otherwise unrelated words into one. For example a "well-known author" makes one word out of well-known. It can also be correctly used to prevent misreading and bad edits, as in "re-sign" instead of "resign". "no one" (without the hyphen) is already clear. Your auto-correct doesn't like the word "no-one" because it's not a word. When you put a space in between it assumes you're hyphenating between two lines (as done in the old days before word wrap and self-formatting text) or that it's otherwise just a step too high for a spell checker and into the grammar checking domain. The words "no" (not any) and "one" (individual) stand on their own just fine. Like this: No parrot can swim in lava. |
|
| |
tldr: "no-one" is not a word. |
|
| |
//No parrot can swim in lava// |
|
| |
Respectfully disagree. Yes, the length of the swim might be short, but let's look at the factors in play here: 1- Parrots can swim and 2- Lava is at least somewhat fluid. Yes, it might not be able to do laps, but is not a flap or two before bursting into flames "swimming"? All that's needed is to have some amount of penetration of the surface and some forward motion to constitute "swimming". Even if it's a half inch in and forward. Now would that just be "slogging" for half a second before exploding? Debatable. |
|
| |
Brief and ill advised, but clearly possible with a lava proof swim shell with cooling and motorized assistance for the wings that WOULD allow it to do laps. |
|
| |
Well yeah... but what about an unladen swallow? |
|
| |
There's a joke in there waiting to be written. |
|
| |
//"no-one" is not a word// |
|
| |
I like hyphens. I have been known to re-home lost-looking punctuation. |
|
| |
It was the gap that through me off. |
|
| |
I know none of you want to hear it but I wasn't lying when I told all of you several times that I get glimpses of things before they happen. I've never tried to monetize it. I've only tried to help. |
|
| |
I don't know what to do. Shit's going south so fast I can't keep up. |
|
| |
Something's gonna give.
...and soon. |
|
| |
Please, get your bug-out gear together and grab whatever weapons "they" have allowed you to keep. |
|
| |
...and then make whatever they haven't. |
|
| |
//Shit's going south so fast I can't keep up// |
|
| |
We know. Don't forget to breathe. And don't be too quick to fire those //whatever weapons//. |
|
| |
You'll see. We're inventive little bastards. Good luck. |
|
| |
Sorry Mr. Fries, I have to disagree. It take years for a giant economy to collapse and while authoritarianism in America is on the rise (from BOTH PARTIES so no one misunderstands and start getting offended) it hasn't reached the point of interesting times yet. America is at least one Sino-American war, a hyperinflation, four patriot acts and two shifts in public awareness away from collapse. And even that will be a slow grinding down, not a sudden "SHTF" style explosion of anarchy. |
|
| |
I would like to know the future but only if the writing on the wall is in the form of an original idea. |
|
| |
We’re probably pretty closely aligned on a lot of issues V. For the most part didn’t see a lot there I disagree with. |
|
| |
But also agree it’s probably good to stick with explosions and custard though. Specific issues doesn’t seem to get a lot of trial here, just gets tribal and brings out the trolls which doesn’t do anybody any good. |
|
| |

I'm not talking about America we kept our weapons, I'm talking to my friends in the UK, <later edit> and Australia... basically anything once considered colonial which is now under attack. You guys never should have let them take your guns. Us Canucks are rooting for you though. |
|

Shit's coming to a head. I give it two weeks or so. |

In other threads, top notch halfbakers have lead you to water. They have explained the benefits of drinking water to you. They have pointed to the necessity of hydration for maintaining life, the pleasant fluid nature of water, the composition of cellular structures as having a good amount of water, its cooling effects, and probably its chemical composition. You have yet to actually address any of that in any rational manner. You have just failed to drink and claimed your spider senses are tingling. |

If we had a choice between loosing the insults or losing them I'd vote for the latter. |
|
| |
Sorry but this discussion has already taken place and everyone, especially the author, knows where it goes. |
|
| |
It goes nowhere because it is not allowed to. I'm not talking about this forum, I mean currently anywhere on this entire planet. |
|
| |
There will soon be a massive social upheaval whereby our democratically elected sell-out traitors re-learn their place as servants of their people. |
|
| |
Two, wait for it... weeks. |
|
| |
Although I am, in general, not very optimistic about how things are going, I doubt that a great revolution is coming on ... {checks watch} ... 26th August 2025. If it happens, I'll be impressed. |
|
| |
Point of order: These prophesies can get muddled after the fact when a similar or not as extreme thing happens. So to be clear, your prediction is for an event or series of events that changes most major economic measures in the UK by at least 50%, will start on or about the end of August 2025, will be easily observable as such by any layman of any political persuasion (for example someone in Canada regardless of why he says it must be happening will say, "yup. That's definitely happening") and its progress will be beyond dispute before September 4th. Employment numbers, consumer spending, and industrial putout will be MASSIVELY different and the change will happen within that time frame. Furthermore you DO NOT reserve the right to reschedule the prediction either before or after its time. |
|
| |
Please don't take this as mockery. I'm just establishing the ground rules that must be established around any such prophesy and are needed to determine objectively whether it has come to pass. |
|
| |
I'll go ahead and put my money on brother 2fries' prediction, it's a win win. Nothing happens, great! Time to celebrate! Shit hits the fan I get to mock and point at the disbelievers as it all burns down. |
|
| |
I'll throw in my downfall of western civilization prediction, it's based on all the civilizations that have collapsed over the past thousands of years that anybody can look up themselves. |
|
| |
Actually... naaa. Not enough exploding custard to hold my interest. And who cares what I think anyway? I'm not sure I care what I think myself. |
|
| |
//a great revolution is coming on ...// |
|
| |
It won't be world-wide, and it won't be over night, but my gut is screaming that a major historic tipping point is just a couple of weeks from occurring, and then things will snowball culminating in some fairly drastic changes to current power bases. The people are pissed. |
|
| |
What that tipping point is remains to be seen. |
|
| |
I accidentally wrote "dairly frastic" and almost left it as is because it's the same type of thing I do when I'm talking. |
|
| |
Okay, would you help me narrow this down to a specific, measurable prediction about which we can say it came to pass or did not? |
|
| |
Um, it's going to happen in the UK.
It will be a massive response to a specific event.
There will be bloodshed. |
|
| |
The event in question was preventable but the way my gut started barking tells me that the window of opportunity for prevention of that potential future closed approximately the same time it started acting up. |
|
| |
Hope that helps. That's all I got. |
|
| |
Can we narrow down "massive"? Because "there will be bloodshed" describes things that happen hundreds of times per day. And the timeline, is it between August 27, 2025 and September 3, 2025? Or is it between now and September 3? Let's say there's a supermarket bombing. Will you claim victory? Or would it take 10 of them? What kind of massive response? |
|
| |
So far there's a much higher chance than you may intend for something so vague to come to pass in the UK. If you want the prophet points you'll have to get more specific. |
|
| |
You're already in the middle of a revolution. Great is not the word I would use to describe it. |
|
| |
Can't get a whole lot more specific. In fact stating definitively in the UK might be too specific. Everything over there is one lump sum in my head so lets just say in the general region where my ancestors come from, but I come from English, Russian, German, Belgian, Dutch, Native American stock. |
|
| |
Don't much care to be seen as a prophet. Don't much care to be noticed at all, but you folks caught my attention. I very much like many of you and would like to see the number of you effected minimized or I wouldn't have said anything at all. |
|
| |
If you are in the general vicinity of England, (I'm Canadian so that could be a thousand kilometre diameter), and can hear my voice then... hope for the best while preparing for the worst is the only advice I can give. |
|
| |
If I'm wrong then it's only on me, but if I'm right then maybe some of you will be able to minimize the damage done at least in your own personal circles. |
|
| |
...and then maybe you'll understand that I don't want to be saddled with precognition.
It's no fun, and I'm no attention whore. |
|
| |
I get it, fries. It’s weird not wanting to be right. I’ve got all my antennas up and am hoping you are relating brain farts rather than gut feelings. Happens. Not joking. |
|
| |
I like how this post is controversial but people are being respectful to each other. Maybe it is the end times. One of 'em anyway. |
|
| |
Frankly I'd like to be less respectful, but this place has lost so many people if about three people leave it won't exist anymore so I'm walking on eggshells. The problem is any theoretical new people will expect it to remain like this, so when I joke around like old times those people will probably leave. |
|
| |
So let's just keep it like this. Seems pretty straightforward. There's joking around and disagreement on this post without the vitriol. We can do this. |
|
| |
I am in the general vicinity of England. I think that 2 fries' vibes antennas are maybe correct: the UK vibe right now is absolutely <limmy voice>fucken shocken</limmy voice>: people are tired, fraught, confused, poor and getting angrier with either (a) managerialist politics serving only capital or (b) forrins (depending where on the leftright spectrum they sit). But! 2 fries' vibes antennas are w a y o f f in terms of the outcome of those bad vibes. The body politic has been so atomised by huffing neoliberalism (and latterly, the internet) that there is no coagulating rage-factor of the sort that would bring tanks back to George Square. Yeah, we occasionally get summertime riots (small scale coagulation about forrins or police brutality) but these are weather dependent activities. I think that one of the most incredible things that the internet currently does is generate feelings of community that in turn allow members of those communities to vastly overstate the extent to which their feelings are shared outside the communities (e.g. Kerrydale street). Everyone is mad about something slightly different. |
|
| |
//Everyone is mad about something slightly different.// |
|
| |
Not me, I whole heartedly 100% support and agree with both sides in any argument, on any subject, and I hate anybody who doesn't. Splitters! |
|
| |
No need to worry about getting any kind of vaccination in America now - haven't they made them all illegal? - great material for South Park. (sniggers) |
|
| |
Ugh. Oh well, it was nice for a minute. |
|
| |
I mean, he has a point. Travel to America has dropped since things became less rational at the borders. So if he takes the piss out of America you could do the same for the land of the machete drive. |
|
| |
The whole point is that America is the only place on the planet offering Devaccination. Of course our DeV services are offered worldwide to affluent punters who find it adventurous to joust with microbes. USAID offices will be remodeled and reopened as Devaccination Centers, offering 5-star lodging and an astounding selection of Hepatitis B raw bar options in our Shmooze and Looze cocktail lounge. All good, all happy! |
|
| |
And we promise, when they come up with a new disease, disease vector, or vaccine theology, we will be in the forefront with our afterburners howling, hell bent on providing what the people want, and the opposite, if necessary. |
|
| |
// allow members of those communities to vastly overstate the extent to which their feelings are shared outside the communities // |
|
| |
But that was already happening before the internet - it's just that no-one [sic] noticed. Example - in left-leaning 1980s North London, I used to hear talk of "what people want" and "how people feel", with reference exclusively to the speakers themselves and their friends, and they simply boggled blankly when confronted with the fact that they weren't winning elections. But then, in right-populist-leaning Portsmouth in the 1990s, I knew a man who would swear blind that conservatives had won the 1987 election with 80% of the popular vote (which they hadn't - not even close). |
|
| |
What the internet has done is to confront these two kinds of people with each other, and neither group has coped well with the encounter. |
|
| |
//am hoping you are relating brain farts rather than gut feelings// |

The trigger, (and I'm pretty sure now that I know what it is but if I say it and then it happens... does the chick precede the egg?), will create a Spartacus effect. |

What I hear in my head is; "Fatwa me! No! Fatwa me motherfuckers!, No No! Fatwa me!" |
|

There but for the grace of God go we all. |
|

//There but for the grace of God go we all.// There is no god. Good luck. |
|
| |
//There is no god// Unless it's in a form other than the previously described pissed off guy with a white beard counting gays. (link) |
|
| |
I've come to the conclusion that there is a creator. I suppose you'd kind of have to call it GOD. |
|
| |
What that being thinks about what talking monkeys do... in it's name?... |
|
| |
...y'all need to give your heads a shake you self righteous entitled pieces o... |
|
| |
Maybe we're creating our own god with AI. In a couple of thousand years won't it be able create life? I think that's the main thing on Gods resume. |
|
| |
I'm going to put a time stamp on this. Remind me. |
|
| |
Just some thought about the "gravity is God" idea, |
|
| |
Gravity formed the Earth, the cradle of life, and brought forth the Sun whose light was the nurturing force that sparked the first steps up from lifeless inert mass to this, our living planet which it continues to sustain and nurture. Without gravity, there'd be no Sun, no stars, no light, only darkness. |
|
| |
So seriously, if it's about an omnipresent, unseen, all powerful force that created the universe, brought forth the light and created life itself and continues to sustain and nurture us... I mean, if that's not God... |
|
| |
It's a monumental mind fuck. Try to break free of it an the whole rest of the planet becomes hostile. |
|
| |
Best of luck with that you npc pos. Just syin. |
|
| |
There are no NPCs. Everyone is real. The world is not a game. |
|
| |
Imagining some people as NPCs is just a thing that other people do so they don't have to care. You're better than that, [2 fries]. |
|
| |
I'm confused 2 fries, what are you mad about? The prediction thing? And what comment made you angry? Seriously, I have no idea what's going on here. Hope it wasn't my god comments that made you angry. I have no clue what's going on in that area. |
|
| |
Nothing said by anyone here has made me angry. I feel the emotions of the multitude and it is reaching a breaking point. Those who can't feel it and loudly lobby for the destruction of their own societies are the npc's.
Useful idiots for hire the lot of them. Some of them don't even need payment, they just feel a need to belong to a group. |
|
| |
So while they me be real, they don't seem to have the ability to think critically and are nothing more than a single symptom of a planet-wide mental disease. |
|
| |
Today may be the day. For the last few days I haven't been able to wash the fight-or-flight stink off of me. My sweat smells like I just stepped in the ring with Tyson, I can't sleep without nightmares, my reflexes are hair trigger, and my gut won't leave me alone. |
|
| |
Something's going to give any second now. |
|
| |
You'll / we'll probably be okay bro, shit may hit the fan as it often does but something to consider: |
|
| |
If we were born in 1900, here's what we'd experience in our short, 60 to 65 year life. (the life expectancy back then, even lower if you count infant mortality, less than 50 years) |
|
| |
- WW1: 16 million+ deaths.
- Spanish flu pandemic: 50 to 100 million deaths.
- The Great Depression
- WW2: 70 to 85 million deaths.
- Communism: 100 + million deaths. |
|
| |
They got through it, but it was a very tough people back then. I agree that there are a lot of mindless sheep being led to the slaughter these days. |
|
| |
But hey, maybe I'm the sheep. Maybe I'm wrong and we do need endless wars, massive inflation, racial and sexual demographic reassignment by the unelected elite, open borders to change the voter base to serve the elites who hate the current population they rule over and to drive down wages and eliminate worker's rights and unions by having a population from 3rd world countries that know their place and do what they're told and unquestioningly vote for who they're told to vote for, elimination of the nuclear family and brainwashing of the children by elimination of practical education in favor of indoctrination to be unquestioning serfs to the self appointed ruling class. And hey, maybe communist mass starvation, breadlines, genocides and death camps ARE the solution. |
|
| |
What do I know? Maybe I'm the one in the cult. |
|
| |
Except I hate all politicians so if I'm a cult member I'm not a very good one. I have yet to have a single politician I agree with more than maybe 50% of the time. And that's being generous. |
|
| |
Oh well, nobody's perfect. |
|
| |
And by the way, the generations from around that era, despite going through all that, basically invented the modern world. Everything from the airplane, light bulb, fiber optics, bar code, telephone, transistor, GPS, internet, computers, AC electricity, first radio transmission to the space rocket, laser, atom and hydrogen bomb, nuclear power reactor, microwave oven, air conditioning, microchip, radio tube, record player, anesthesia, video game, smart phone, etc etc. (Well, Americans did anyway.) |
|
| |
They got through their shit, maybe we can too. Certainly something to aspire to. |
|
| |
It's not that. My gut doesn't do the rumba for no reason. |
|
| |
Today on BBC: Domestic abuse screening tool doesn't work, minister says. Schools, care homes and sports clubs sold off to pay spiralling council debt. Nigel Farage says illegal migration is a 'scourge'. TfL asks 'nuisance' mobile users to wear headphones. Rising egg prices push food inflation to 18-month high. Gazan students granted approval to study in UK. The family of a teenager whose ashes were scattered on Wrexham AFC's pitch have received a special tribute from club co-owner Ryan Reynolds. |
|

Thank you, [Voice]; those are some good examples of shit going south, but not examples of anyone reacting with violence. |

Meanwhile, from Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar", Act 3, Scene 1: |
|
| |
Caesar -
[To the Soothsayer] The Ides of March are come.
Soothsayer -
Ay, Caesar, but not gone. |
|
| |
... and now they've gone. |
|
| |
I say this in all seriousness as a fellow halfbaker. 2f, go get some help. |
|
| |
It's already started. Less bloodshed than I'd anticipated but everything switched on a dime now didn't it? I think it flipped with the rape of that 12 year old in the Netherlands or something.
Unfortunately there will be more blood. |
|
| |
Maybe those without the capacity to understand the trends they are currently witnessing should seek some help. |
|
| |
This Sharia Jizya Jihad and it's Pedophile prophet can return to the shit-hole which spawned them. |
|

Way y'go! Cuttin the clits off your daughters y'fuckin heathens! |
|

You know what? Fuck your fucking fuck you racist pieces of shit! |
|
| |
Way y'go. Back where you came from. |
|
| |
Work on your own problems there thank you very much. |
|
| |
Okay I'm finished. Delete me if you must, but otherwise... |
|
| |
Get stuffed you over zealous asswipes! |
|
| |
I didn't understand some of this, could you rephrase it? |
|
| |
And quit attacking 2 fries, let the man speak his mind. |
|
| |
Note to self: Don't write shit at night after closing. |
|
| |
Rephrased eh? Okay. I thought the 'Sharia, jizya jihad, pedophile prophet back to its shit-hole' bit was pretty specific upon second reading though. |
|
| |
The UK and surrounding area is screwed unless they rise up. Looks like it has begun.
Your politicians have sold you out, probably your crown has too.
None of you are allowed to discuss it on social media but I am under no such constraint.
Islam is a religion of conquest, (as you are currently finding out), and not one of peace, unless it is the peace of death left in its wake. |
|
| |
Drive them the fuck out, back to where they came from. |
|
| |
Like I said before Islamophobia is not a real thing... Islamoterrified on the other hand... |
|
| |
I disagree, the only probem in the world is Donald Trump, we need to ignore distractions like that as well as other distractions like never ending debt slavery, never ending "Wars For Peace" (tm) (C) (all rights reserved by global military industrial complex) global one government dominance, control of freedom of expression by a global 1984 style throught control web, biowarfare labs working on deadlier gain of function research. |
|
| |
These are imaginary problems set up by evil MAGA fascist oligarch, chaos merchants. Everything's fine except for Donald Trump, without him there'd be zero problems in the world and we really need to stop looking at anything but him as instructed by our glorious brain masters! |
|
| |
Name one war or genocide that WASN'T caused by Donald Trump, I defy you to. |
|
| |
WW1: Donald Trump
WW2: Donald Trump
Korea, Vietnam, Mao's genocides, Stalin's purges: Donald Trump
The middle east wars: Donald Trump
|
|
| |
Now there are some racist homophobes that will put out lies and propaganda like "Ohh, Donald Trump wasn't even born yet during World War 1 or WW2." |
|
| |
It's that kind of racist fascism that really causes me to want to get a picture of Elon Musk waving and stand on a street corner with a bunch of screaming old cat ladies. |
|
| |
zzzzzzzzzzzzz You talk about him more than anyone else on this site. Let it go. It's an obsession. |
|
| |
That's what I'd expect from you people who bow down before your beloved Trump and consider him your god and saviour. I will not stop until every single idea on this site either direction mentions Donald Trump or obliquely refers to something in the news related to him. |
|
| |
I will single handedly free the Halfbakery from the scourge of people just having fun without being beaten over the head with my glorious vision of a world that talks about nothing but Donald Trump! |
