we had the football thread, the whole point of this forum, but sometimes, there's not a lot of football to talk about. COME ON YOU SAINTS!!!!! Music thread! excellent idea, everyone loves music. International weekend, bored, spice things up with a political thread. Now this could get a bit racy. No problem, this is where to let it go! oh. Forget that, way too controversial! ban that!
Here’s a jolly non-controversial piece of news to cheer us all up, although some will be disappointed. Apparently the parakeets in Central London were NOT put there by Jimi Hendrix. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-50755015
That's insulting...I think you should close this thread and so does my family but I can't tell you why.
I'm not going to argue against locking it for a bit but this is election day for a very divisive election and rhetoric had certainly ramped up leading to it. It will probably calm down when less is on the line in a few days so would be nice if you consider reopening it then.
Anyone who still wants to discuss politics while our thread is closed might like to know there is a politics thread in General Chat. https://www.not606.com/threads/the-new-politics-thread.377812/page-118
Opinion doesn’t count then? It’s sounding like we’ll need a set of legal laws and legal representation to proofread posts before posting soon.
I do think the Politics thread should be reopened later tonight. Otherwise whenever a result comes in the off topic thread will be flooded with politics.
Flocking parakeets! there's hundreds roosting outside ours competing with raucous crows. Spectacular fly pasts dawn and dusk but another intrusive species that needs control.
Yeah open it up at 9pm an hour before the polls close and give everyone the chance to calm down and have a couple of drinks
I think maybe we should talk about Religion on here (it is the off topic thread after all). There will be no controversy at all.
