Well...I am bored by every "prequel" Star Trek...so here is my pitch, DS9 ended in 1999. The new series is set 20 years later. After the end of the dominion war the wormwhole remained closed and no expedition was started into the gamma quadrant for diplomatic reasons. Between everything t...

The most prominent moment I've seen of him in politics of late was his dramatic 'thumbs down' to the diet repeal bill the GOP put through the senate in July 2017. https://eu.azcentral.com/story/news/local/arizona-health/2018/08/30/john-mccains-thumbs-down-health-vote-recalled-watershed-moment/111666...

Well, so far this month I have applied for a Computer Programming course and completed my CBT, so I can now legally ride a 125cc scooter, if I can find one affordable, ha. The course starts in February, so it's a while away yet, but gives me time to get everything else sorted (care coordinator is l...

Hmmm. Slightly a worry since my chosen profession is down that list. That being said, I wonder if there will at some stage be legislation to limit automation. Governments and authorities will soon realise they are fast heading to a trainwreck if there's a workforce that cannot work (and therefore ca...

I think Graham hits the nail on the mark for the majority of his predictions. I dispute the EU not being democratic (Fittingly I've had to study the institutions of the EU as part of my law course, well timed!) As each institution is made up of either elected officials or officials subject to electi...

We've been averaging mid 80s in old money for the past two weeks straight. At work it's great, our office has a particularly overactive air conditioning system. Elsewhere not so much. I live in an apartment built out of a 110 year old victorian town house with veeeeery little ventilation. Lots of ve...

It’s slightly scary how relentless the March of time is isn’t it? I look back on some of my oldest posts on here and cringe. You were all so patient with me back then. It's okay - you never once pretended to be half cat nor asked us if we thought a Klingon, Tellarite, or Tzenkethi would make a bett...

Perhaps a Korea style officially at war but unofficially mostly not bothered beyond chucking a torpedo at one another for fun now and then?

It might be an age or regional thing but I would agree with you two. I’ve only known vehicles like that as Lorries, Artics or HGVs.

Here I am, 23 going on 50 as my other half would fondly attest.

Commonly it seems someone cuts up a HGV or something like that, the lorry driver beeps or something and then the offending cutter-upper does a 'brake check' cause he's an arse. What sort of lunatic, even your average passive-aggressive fuckwit, brake tests a woofer? It doesn't take the world's grea...

You'll find just as many videos of this dotting the internet from England. Quite often they appear to be the result of passive aggressive fuckery on the part of a driver cutting someone up. Commonly it seems someone cuts up a HGV or something like that, the lorry driver beeps or something and then t...

Isn't it mad how time flies. I feel old. I'm just about to take my first exam on the long, perilous journey toward becoming a lawyer. I'm training through CILEx, a sort of 'vocational' on the job way of becoming a lawyer without doing a degree. Takes slightly longer but the education is squarely foc...

Very kind guys.

Yup. I've been a member of this community for over half my lifespan. Hence why so many of my oldest posts are frankly tragic.
