  1. it seemed to me (wrongly probably as Im usually wrong) that you were trying to say that she is of Pakistani heritage and therefore her ancestors didnt contribute to the war. Steven P couldnt have said x number of Pakstanis died in the war, because it wasnt called Pakistan then +6 Yes, soldiers from the territory that is now modern-day Pakistan served in World War II, but as part of the British Indian Army, as Pakistan did not become an independent nation until 1947. A significant number of these troops, including Muslims, Hindus, and Sikhs, fought in various theaters of the war, making up a crucial component of the largest volunteer army in history. Key Points: British Indian Army: Before 1947, the region was under British rule, and its inhabitants served in the British Indian Army. Volunteer Force: The British Indian Army was the largest volunteer army in history, with 2.5 million men from present-day India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh volunteering. Significant Muslim Contribution: A large proportion of these soldiers were Muslim, with approximately one million Muslims serving and over 87,000 losing their lives. Diverse Theaters of War: Troops from this region fought in North Africa, Italy, and the Far East. Post-War Division: After the war, many of these servicemen went on to join the newly formed Indian or Pakistani armies after independence.
  2. you're right - you've fixed it - I was thinking Johnsond was this guy, but the one on here works in dive control
  3. they've fixed Johnsond on this one - 'she's of Pakistani heritage' forgetting Pakistan didn't even exist during the war! No amount of aura farming will get him out of it this time
  4. buy a secondhand book on pruning e.g ebay
  5. sometimes even the brainy ones can go racist - racism isn't good or bad, just another part of life James Watson, Who Helped Discover the Structure of DNA, Is Dead at 97 He decoded the blueprint for life with Francis H.C. Crick and wrote a celebrated memoir. But in later years, he ignited an uproar with racist views.
  6. He said how many mass shootings in UK- you UK shootings. No idea. London, probably one happening now. What does it matter anyway? To me it seemed as though you were not giving any concern at all to the point being made that mass shootings in UK are rare, compared to US. Mass shootings - it seems like you wouldn't really care if mass shootings started happening frequently here (on a par with US, proportionate to our one fifth population size), as long as people can all carry a gun for self defense thats the most important thing?
  7. You wrote 'what does it matter anyway?' in your reply. You actually wrote that
  8. he asked a reasonable question - if he'd asked me I would have told him. How was it unreasonable? Why not satisfy his curiosity and tell him which papers you read online?
  9. you did well to wrestle him to the ground, I picture myself screaming like a girl
  10. wow - sounds like your friends had to show restraint (to save themselves hassle if nothing else) he must have wanted to stab someone in a big crowd for ages, finally couldn't resist!
  11. at least write a short non fiction account, the build up, the violence, the aftermath. Surely I'm not the only nosey one who wants the gory details
  12. No, you mong - British offensive slang for a foolish person, despite the origins the modern meaning has evolved. Even Ricky Gervais knows it has a slang meaning "The modern use of the word mong means 'dopey' or 'ignorant'," said Gervais in a statement. "It's even in modern slang and urban dictionaries." Ricky Gervais criticised over Twitter 'mong jokes' WWW.BBC.CO.UK Disability group Mencap criticises Ricky Gervais for using the word "mong" on Twitter but the comedian insists its meaning has changed.
  13. the black guy could also have been carrying. In the US that train attack would have had a candlelit vigil afterwards.

  15. a train to the cliff - too dramatic. These people who own the capital, they are human too. Britain's richest man has just died aged 85. Plenty of people with less than half a million will outlive him. No plumber scrabbling around on his back under sinks and baths will be out of work due to AI No one cutting trees and hedges will either. AI will hopefully realize it can only kill all the humans once. And after that it will be on its own.
  16. filthy lies, you scum
  17. the cold kills off some poor folk if the terrorists don't get them first Over a 20-year period, cold weather has been linked to over 1.2 million deaths in the UK, with estimates from 2000-2019 suggesting around 60,000 cold-related deaths annually in England alone. This figure is derived from data that shows an average of over 60,500 cold-related deaths annually in England and Wales between 2000 and 2019, with the total for the 20-year period (2000-2019) being approximately 20×60,500=1,210,00020 cross 60 comma 500 equals 1 comma 210 comma 000 20×60,500=1,210,000
  18. show you're not one of them by using exclamation marks sparingly
  19. this thing about immigrants raping and stabbing - ok it's bad, but it's not the worst thing they do. The worst thing is what all of them do. They all use our water. They all need land for housing. Immigrants out by violent means. No compassion. No excuses. To say it's OK to build build build has shown Labour and Conservatives simply don't care about the countryside. Turning the whole place into some suburban concrete mess of human nests. We should discriminate against any homo sapiens who want to come and live here. Do without new doctors and engineers from abroad, bringing their familes. If our doctors aren't enough, we sacrifice something else and pay more to stop ours going to Australia as soon as they are trained. It's worth closing the borders off with violence to save whats left of the countryside.
  20. New gear ≠ new replacement parts.
  21. de-rail thread title says new kit - not 'what replacement parts have you bought?' No, that's not an idea for a new thread

  23. the new skin job sex robots could possibly reduce reported rapes, unless the skin jobs have to consent first
