Changing yer mind

Now, this forum is famous for being able to pick a side of an argument and stay with it no matter what. 

But what have you changed your position on. For me, it was fox hunting, I was very pro fox hunting for a variety of reasons but have changed my stance because well, it's barbaric and some traditions should probably be best put to bed.

Spider famously altered his thoughts on Brexit.... anyone else not sticking to position for the sake of it?

    Manchester City. Didn’t mind them years ago but now they can fuck off

  • I can’t for my fucking life think of any reason someone from Bolton would support a fox hunt. Baffling.

  • And Utd  Don't forget you used to be Utd  I won't

People are usually scared of things they don’t understand.

I used to go lamping for foxes on the farm and our Uncle would shoot them to protect his sheep.

The Holcomb Hunt haven’t caught a fox in 20 years, but that’s mainly because the Hunt Master has usually had half a bottle of scotch before they set off. He’d return with vomit all down his pinks before being carted off to the pub by his whipping boys afterwards for cigars and touchy-feely fun with the staff.

You’ll see more barbaric acts carried out behind flat roofed pubs on a weekend, but because it’s Lord Ponsenby-Haw-Haw-Rimplington most normal folk see their arse about it.

Live and let live. Fox shit fucking stinks.

Very close pal, very close 😂 

I'd rather toffs tear up the countryside a few times a year than some Indian cunt from the Cheshire set build illegal 'executive' mansions on it for some scumbag heelstraps nouveau-gauche aspirational Hardacre peasants to live in.

Cute fluffy rabbits are bred solely to feed domestic dogs and are slaughtered in a manner that makes a sword and a Saudi square look like the way to go...

Foxes were only native to certain parts of Britain way back when.

They're almost a home-grown invasive species.

Foxes aren't vegetables, they need wiping out, man!

Mental health/suicides bring an illness rather than selfishness is probably my biggest change.

Also categorising good/bad people. There is a whole middle ground.

Watched a bird of prey display whilst on holiday. The flew a golden eagle; size of a pterodactyl, and apparently they'll take foxes for food. 

Each farm needs one on a few hundred metres of rope.

Pineapple on pizza. Its immense. I will fight anyone who disagrees.

Absolutely. I'll stand shoulder to shoulder with you there.

Salmon on the other hand- liked it as a kid, but reckon it's wishy washy pap now.

I'll fight both of you.  Pineapple shouldn't be anywhere near the dining table until pudding is served.

I don't. Horrible things. 

Pineapples on pizza. Fuck me. I've heard it all now. 

Pizzas are generally shit. Anyone ordering one at a restaurant where actual proper meals are on the menu is either a kid or a peasant. 

FACT 

(unless you are genuinely in Italy)

I'd never order one in a restaurant. Or pasta.

Although they can't be tamed, get the lad Billy back from Fleetwood to train them, he's a natural...

In regard to Olives, I reckon' they're a good indicator of someone being a fussy eater...

(Dislike of them).

I certainly not a fussy eater. I have tried them a few times. They just aren't for me at all.

I reckon' Croatia have better pizzas...

The Germans are better at cars.

The Danes are better at design.

North America is better at Italo-Disco.

Czechs have fitter women.

Japan and France are better at Fashion.

Albanians are better at Organised Crime.

Bulgaria are better at Fascism.

Spain are better at making cured hams.

Britain is better for lads living at home until their thirties now, hiding behing their mam's skirt like Porky Pig.

Everything they led the World at they're crap at now.

Apart from cheating at Football - still World Leaders at that by a wide margin.

Keep trying, they're crap here in the UK.

The Olive purist won't countenance a ready stoned olive.

Try a Puttanesca sauce.

Which means 'whore's sauce' because in backward Italy, until fairly recently, brothels (which even the smallest village has at least one) had to remain shuttered, and the girls who lived/worked there were only allowed out to shop once a week, so 'respectable' women wouldn't have to rub shoulders with them.

All whore sauce recipe ingredients are canned...

Olives are just a vegan calamari. Utter gash.

9/11 and it's causes.

Went down a massively worrying rabbit hole with conspiracy theories for a couple of years. Started believing all sorts of nonsense. I remember having a proper argument with Bolty about it on here many moons ago. 

We may be at different ends of the political spectrum sir but, as you always consider the other point of view rather than dismissing it out of hand, I would not consider that we would ever have a 'proper argument'.

Now then, your amigo down south (who I fully expect to be wearing a Handmaids Tale outfit if ever we meet) is a different kettle of pish.

Back to your point - I take it that you now accept that 9/11 was down to Bin Laden and his plotters and not the work of Vegan extremists, Lollards or some US security service or other?
