Lol wtf

Cool news I heard the other day, the UK's population is now nearing 61 million.

Ah, so that's why I'm always crushed in the corridors at school, and stuck in hour long traffic jams just to get to a neighbouring city.

It was Spiraldoor who said that, but I firmly agree, how can she live with herself?

[Acarr]

It was Spiraldoor who said that,

I know

... but I firmly agree, how can she live with herself?

I would suck having loads of babies to begins with, but why is she not allowed to have a baby in the first place? If she really loves them and wants to keep them, I don't see why she shouldn't be able to.

[MrBadGuy]

Well, I don't know anything about this particular story except what I've heard here, but obviously she is not fit to raise children, otherwise social services wouldn't have to keep taking them away.

[Cairnie]

We're talking about people like these though, not just people with big families.

[MrBadGuy]

God, that's terrible. She obviously doesn't care about her children if she's going to "keep having them until they let her keep one". She refers to them as if they are objects or possessions.

Pet hoarders are pretty much the same, they think they're the only ones that can look after the animals but in reality they just round them up and let them shit everywhere, harming both them and the owner. I should know because my parents have been in such a house.

[Acarr]

I still don't see why they have to be taken away from her, and that she just doesn't go into counselling if they think she has a problem with drinking. And I can see why she would have a drinking problem, if they keep taking them away!


And, urrgh, yeah I'm friends with a "pet hoarder"-not too long ago I tried to warn her that you shouldn't keep two male rabbits in a small cage (filled with crap, and without any hay, proper clean water etc.), or even just keep them all year round outdoors. And then she comes into school crying her eyes out because one dies (most likely of fly strike).


And that was just the rabbits!

[PluMGMK]

My cousins have three rabbits, three dogs (one of which we recently learned was wicked), two cats and a snake and maybe more than that that I can't remember. I think they're all kept in places with good conditions though.

[Acarr]

I don't think people should keep tropical animals as pets- ya ken- unless they have, of course, the proper stuff.

[Xenon]

My mate used to push his dog down the stairs... it always seemed fine when I saw it though, somehow.

[MrBadGuy]

That's just horrible and pointless...

[Acarr]

And kinda disturbing...

[MLII]

...and totally mean The poor animal.

[PluMGMK]

You're delusional?

So you use phrases like ffs, which means "For God's Sake", but you don't believe in God himself?

[Acarr]

It's a phrase.

[MLII]

And anyway, the phrase "FFS" doesn't even mention God.

[Acarr]

Otherwise that would be FGS...

[MLII]

Yeah.

[PluMGMK]

And anyway, the phrase "FFS" doesn't even mention God.

But it's based on a phrase involving God. I wouldn't do anything for the sake of obscene language. The phrase still has meaning, and Tobbe and Matyuv are hypocrites for using it.
