  1. It's Saturday night and I suspect a few shandies have been had, so I'm going to take the unusual step of temporarily locking this thread because tempers are getting a bit frayed. I or one of the other mods will unlock it when everyone has calmed down.

  2. This has been known for years. Back in the 30s Drs in Germany were putting this forward. That's why Hitler turned vegetarian.

    I don't know about the Hitler thing, but you are right. Red meat and processed meat in particular have been suspected carcinogens for ages. In the case of processed food nitrites are most likely to be the problem because they can form highly carcinogenic nitrosamines in the presence of amines.

  3. The Blair cunt is trying to do a pre-chilcot spin.

    Yep that's the one. Don't get me started on Blair. In 1997 we thought it was all going to change, only to find the leader of what we though was The Labour party, but he called "New Labour", was a Thatcherite Tory. Nothing much changed. Then in 2003 he took us into thicko Bush's  pointless invasion of Iraq which created a land fit for ISIS. And he still thinks he did the right thing. Cunt.

  4. It is true that the corner is deep within an existential crisis.

    Is it though? I wasn't around in the early days when the old main posting board evolved from the discontinued CuntsCorner on HolyMoly, but my understanding is that it was purely for nominating people in the media spotlight who you consider are cunts. I would think then as now that didn't include unsubstantiated, libellous accusations or racism. Yes things may have changed a bit here and there, but for myself if I deleted everything I personally consider gratuitously offensive an awful lot more posts would hit the bin and that's always been the case.

  5. It's known now that her illness was meningitis caused by the Ebola virus. It's not much consolation for her because she faces a long recovery, but it has provided useful information about Ebola. It has been known that Ebola can lead to meningitis, but usually at the height of the infection. This is the first time it's been documented in an otherwise recovered patient, so it's one to look out for in the future.

     

     

  6. Dear me there's some unpleasant bollox on this thread. Some of you sound like you're on a BNP pub crawl.

    The aim of a deradicalization program is laudable, the problem is how to do it. The worst case scenario is that it comes across as a preachy lecture by Tory toffs. Nobody is going to decide against joining ISIS because David Cameron tells them not to. You are talking predominantly about disillusioned teenagers. Actually it's not vastly different from telling teenagers not to grow their hair long, smoke dope and listen to loud music would have been in the past, except that nobody got killed back then. Unfortunately for some Muslim youth ISIS is the new rock and roll. I'm not being frivolous, there is a similarity. They feel disaffected, alienated, undervalued and are looking for a purpose and an identity. That's what the ISIS nutters are promising them.

    So it's got to come from within the Muslim community and there's no reason to be cynical and say it can't. It can and it has to. It can't be seen to be dogma driven by this government to look good to Daily Mail readers.

  7. Got a word into the profanisaurus once, gurniture - dental bracery. They ran out of steam ten or more years ago.

    I had no idea it was still going. Yes it was funny in its day, but ran out of ideas ages ago.

  8. I think there's overreaction going on here. I've had posts deleted on other forums. It's irritating if you don't think there was anything wrong with your post, but its not a reason to throw your toys out of the pram and take your ball home, if you'll pardon the mixed metaphor.

  9. Nothing against Scruff personally, but I think he is the only one on here for whom the cricket means anything. By rights I should be pissed off because we lost the ashes, but it seems the cricket talk annoys even the English!

    At least his one trick pony is something I am interested in, not like some of the shite I used to see from Punkape and Brony. 

    Cricket means nothing to most people now because it's a private game for Sky TV customers only.

  10. His talent consists entirely of manufacturing a six month career for fucking karaoke singers.

    Him and the Beckhams, in my top five of 'how the fuck did they manage that?'

     

    Well David can play football a bit and Victoria ................ er I have to get back to you on that one.

  11. I see from the lunch time news that another part of the VW empire - Audi has now been dragged into this. Turns out the overgrown Tonka toys such as their Q range may not be as clean and efficient after all. What's Kraut for "We are a bunch of lying bastards" ?  It certainly ain't "Vorsprung durch Technik"

     

    Täuschung Durch Technik.

  12. I saw part of a Springer show for the first time in ages and I was struck by how incompetent the bouncers are. At least Kyle's bouncers know how to stop a fight with minimal physical contact - you put your not inconsiderable bulk between the protagonists, hold out your arms so they can't come around you and it's fight over most of the time. Springers clowns were reduced to trying to drag people apart by their wrists.

  13. He's just split from his second wife too. Maybe he should have spoken to The Genius. Come to think of it why does Graham Stanier lower himself to be part of this charade, other than presumably a decent salary? By all accounts he's quite well respected in his field, or at least he was.
