I am just trying to show that anyone can be as cranky as the bitterest of cranks. We can't keep complaining about a world WE ARE ALL RESPONSIBLE FOR! ...

There is no such thing as national behaviour, there are only accusations about particular humans behaving in the perceived stereotypical manners I sug...

Well, where I suggest that @"180 Proof" is being a doomster and a pessimist is that the over-population we experience today and the 'pressing' problem...

My earlier comments were about the nefarious Spanish rich and powerful of the past and any Spaniard who still holds similar beliefs to those vile Span...

I always like to read historical info, if its accurate, so thanks for that info. I could return the favour by giving you lots of info on why 'Berwick ...

I think its unwise to make generalised statements about any nationality, such as, 'for some reasons they want us to be destroyed,' 'we don't care abou...

Had a wee look but it's all in Spanish. Looked for a wee tab, for an English version but I couldn't find one.

Yeah, I noticed some Portuguese seem to have a problem with Castile and many seem to want Olivenza back. That was intriguing because many Scots still ...

Yeah, but did you notice some of the comments had been deleted? What do you read into that? If you scroll further down, you will see similar questions...

You might find some of the viewpoints below, posted on quora, interesting: https://www.quora.com/Why-dont-the-Portuguese-and-Spaniards-like-each-other

It's a disturbing film that you should add to your list as worth a look again, just to see how the 'movie' dramatic licence can be used too much for t...

I have holidayed in Portugal 4 times and during those times I hardly ever heard a Portuguese, say anything nice about Spain or Spainards. I have never...

You will get a Portuguese who don't like a Spaniard who don't consider themselves Spaniard but considers themselves a Basque or a Catalonian who don't...

There is no commonwealth as wealth is not common.

Fair enough, a good place to leave it. I disagree with you that I am panglossian or utopian and I still think your are pessimistic and a doomster, but...

She works for mad catholic priest's man! Wouldn't you be a little mad yourself? Aussie Bawbag! I wonder how long that party would last, as long as one...

:razz: We obviously mix in very different circles. I don't know if that gives me the advantage or not. What you call high society and private, invitat...

But such Irish ninjas are socially slagged to death afterwards, amongst their friends/associates, for being party lightweights!

You seem to be congested by a 'futility' vibe. A human can improve themselves whilst they are alive and they can leave a legacy that can assist others...

:grin: Are you offering me my own show on TPF? Can you click your heels together and make that happen? Would you?......... could you? Ok, no more Wiz ...

Yeah, different languages but same character types!

OR, you might conclude that the sun does not rise at all, it is the Earth that turns.

I don't think I have misread what you typed at all, but you seem to want to insist I have, which is fine. I don't think your future doomster projectio...

You are just typing inaccurate trash about me TC. I seem to occupy much more space in your head than you do in mine. If you want to try to counter my ...

Yeah, I only gave you one of the less emotive quotes, I have many more from people who like drugs or take drugs, but I didn't what to ruffle your hair...

:up:

:grin: :up:

Yes, saw it about 4 times, only once when I really wanted to. There is no pomposity in my claim. I am referring to some folks in the company watching ...

Looked up some quotes from trainspotting! How about in a Ruskie accent: A leetle beet baad, a leetle beet craazy comrade but hey, do not uz gearlis ju...

but true.

Wan man's meat is anither man's poison Javi! (one man's meat is another man's poison).

Trainspotting did nothing to help the massive drug problem in Scotland, in actually helped glamorise it in the strange minds of many Scots involved in...

I hope you don't suffer from alcoholism before I type this but If I was standing next to you in Spain right now with a glass of single malt in my hand...

:rofl: Hey, wait a minute! 'Arguments FOR antinatalism,' is a wee bit too much of a swing towards supporting the topic rather than denigrating it. The...

Good idea, change the 'Life sucks' thread into 'All antinatalism discussions here:' Edit: I see I am playing catch up with @"Baden" again. Yeah, I kno...

Exactly!

I would say this viewpoint would have a lot of support, especially if you ask people for a quick knee jerk response to a question like 'how's life for...

Yeah, I was moving towards this understanding of you typings when I typed: So perhaps we would both benefit from paying a little more attention to wha...

I would suggest that as contributors (hopefully benevolent contributions), we do have the right to maintain positive 'hope' for the future of our spec...

On behalf of all Scots lovers of the stone of destiny, I humbly thank you. Having said that, I have to admit that as a person who rejects woo woo, I w...
