We’d have got rid of it in 1990 I think if it weren’t for Thatcher. The UK would have had high speed internet from day one, but that stupid bint went “nah…”.

Could be? Seriously?

 

I’ve properly missed out with this one and haven’t got a clue what is going on, beyond Sony aren’t letting some countries residents create accounts.

But to the guy in the article, and the guy who shot some teen for knocking on his door, this is perfectly normal, acceptable behaviour. That is what I meant when I said "to many Americans".

I didnt think I needed the word "ok". But I wasnt clear enough.

Didnt see myself needing it to be honest...I thought I was clear in that what I meant was it is normal to some, not all. Ill try to be clearer in future.

I said it’s normal to many Americans, normal as in ok.

I didn’t say it is normal. I said to many Americans it is ok to pick up a gun and shoot someone for ringing their doorbell or parking on their driveway.

These aren’t the actions of a responsible gun owner …

Its not that he thinks that this is normal behaviour, its that so many Americans think that this is normal behaviour.

I think so. In reality he just looks like a massive dick.

The American healthcare industry is the envy of the world.

[–] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 6 points 6 months ago

Did you really just say that unironically?

Rhetorical/facetious. And I got the answer I expected.

 

As the title says, numerous banks in the U.K., maybe across the world, are raising interest rates on mortgages, and the given reason is cause inflation hasn’t fallen as much as expected. Can anyone give me a basic inflation, other than greed, as to why they’d do this?
