I heard it on the radio and thought “I must post that when I get home!”

Here is a discussion on Tumblr equivalents.

He’s lucky to still have an anus

Perhaps he misunderstood when he overheard someone say “they eat arseholes”.

The man’s an anus.

I presume because he hadn’t been charged with anything. Also one rule for the rich…

This feels like the start of an existential crisis.

It’s not the chlorine per se (although it would be heavily diluted in water) it is why they need washing in chlorine - because of the insanitary conditions the chickens are raised in that leaves them teeming with bacteria.

Hershey’s literally tastes like vomit. And I’m not being hyperbolic with the literally. It genuinely does.

It’s science:

Readers who have had the misfortune to encounter a Hershey bar will know exactly what I’m talking about. It’s wretched stuff isn’t it? If you are in possession of a sound mind and a few functioning taste buds then I don’t see how you can possibly enjoy US chocolate. It tastes like sawdust that’s been drowned in sugar and soaked with baby vomit.

It tastes like that, by the way, because that’s roughly what it is. American chocolate (I’m talking about the non-fancy stuff) has a lot more sugar and a lot less cocoa than its European counterparts. Some producers also allegedly put their milk through a process called controlled lipolysis which produces butyric acid. What’s that when it’s at home? It’s something that’s found in vomit. God knows what else Americans get up to in their chocolate factories. A lawsuit recently filed in New York alleges that Hershey, which has the licence to produce Cadbury products in the US, “fails to disclose” that some of its chocolate products “contain unsafe levels of lead and cadmium”

It’s not milk or white chocolate per se but the American formulation is different from the European. Specifically it is the presence of butyric acid which gives it a longer shelf life but makes it taste like vomit (because it is produced by breaking down the milk to release the compound, so it has overtones of sour milk if you aren’t used to it). It also tends to have more sugar and less cocoa.

Must be your cache - it came down noon west coast time.

If you put it like that, it sounds bad.

I saw a Rolls Royce Chelsea tractor (proper footballer’s wives material - probably waa) the other day that was doing the school run. Money really can’t buy taste.

We should ban them because they are bad for people and the environment but also because they are naff.

That’s the point of the tariffs. We’ve held out against all sorts of American demands, so they ratchet up the pressure to sign a trade deal preferable to them and soon we are allowing minging food, dropping the Digital Service Tax and watering down the Online Safety Act.

It’s an incredibly crude way of negotiating but it’s not like Trump is known for his subtlety.

Step 1: force us to take minging chicken.

Step 2: force us to remove the country of origin because adding it is anticompetitive.

He is generous with his gifts.

Take that Yanks! How do you like them apples? Which are a healthier snack than Percy Pig sweets.

Fuckers.

Sorry, English is not my first language, bit I thought the post is somewhat clear?

English is my first language and it was clear to me.

I already mentioned that there are edge cases. Edge cases do not discredit foundational frameworks that define reality.

But when you are trying to define or classify things it is the edge cases that are key. It is at the edges that we hope to find a clear divide between one set of things and another.

Unfortunately, with sex chromosomes, their impact on development and that effect on performance it feels like the more we know the less we understand.

International sporting bodies have huge resources and access to the best experts in the various fields and they can’t come up with a good way to classify male and female. I could, at least, see the logic in their going for testosterone exposure during puberty as being a useful guide, although it is complex and rather arbitrary, but there are counter-arguments to that which suggest it isn’t useful. So the sporting bodies seem to be falling back on chromosome testing, which is no guide at all to performance and seems to be favoured because it is easy to test for - like the drunk looking for his keys under a lamppost because the light was better there.
