About 65,000 tonnes of munitions were dumped on Britain during WW2 by the Luftwaffe - they did more than break a few windows with all that.

I’m so sorry you had to find out.

I’d also recommend avoiding Mr. Hands and 2 girls 1 cup but, to be honest, these three are just the tip of a vile iceberg.

I’ve embedded Wikipedia links; just in case.

Do you regret asking that question?

Melt your bank card in acetone. Carefully remove the chip and copper antenna. Place in small mould, fill with resin. Bobby Fingers (YouTuber) did this for a one-eyed friend so he could pay with his eyeball… Consider an rfid blocking case.

I see people add milk, I see people add cream - is butter that different?

I normally get about four years or so out of an iPhone, with heavy and extensive daily use - works out as less than 50 (US) cents a day. I used to pay more for a newspaper.

I only made the switch when BlackBerry OS10 “failed” and they quit making handsets. I still miss my Z30 though…

From my own personal view I find it very difficult to disagree with every part of your second sentence.

I browse… Twitter, 9gag, 4chan, BlueSky, Lemmy and Mastodon. I find a mixed bag of cunts and diamonds on all of them - and loads of people in between.

Perhaps you might try sorting the wheat from the chaff next time before you make definitive sweeping statements about various platforms.

My almost five year old piece of under powered apple trash cost me less than 45 US cents a day, still has regular OS updates and works between eight to ten hours most days running my entire life. I might even splurge out and buy a new one if they ever release an overpowered non trash handset…

If she is in Toronto then smoking weed from a bong is no more illegal than drinking a beer from a glass - if that was your worry about the visible paraphernalia.

Thanks for the update. I’ve put an edit in my post so I’ll stop spreading misinformation.

The only time a brand should really matter is for critical use. Unbranded defibrillator? No thanks. Going mountaineering? Don’t buy from temu. Motorbike helmet? Not from Shein.

Funnily enough I wondered about the whole “Jews have big noses” thing myself whilst reading and replying.

Interesting. I’m happy with that.

You also make the good point that tropes, stereotypes, generalisations etc often say more about the people who use them then the people they’re aimed at.

I’ve got no idea why German and English seem to have flipped the trope. I hope someone else can provide an answer here.

I knew about the whiteness, obesity (and body odour?) but the long noses is new to me. Kind of makes sense, there they are, sticking out of your face for everyone to see.
