Greece has legalised same sex marriage. First Orthodox Christian country to do so. Progress keeps chipping away, but by bit, despite the fuckers who are trying to take us back a hundred years.

I love Greece and the Greeks.

They love you back big boy

They are just going back to their roots Same sex relations were nothing strange in ancient Greece.

You might laugh but there's a serious discussion to be had as to whether pandas are worth saving if they won't save themselves.

They are carnivorous animals that eat a plant with limited nutritional value and they don't do Nookie

That's it in a nutshell !

Any animal that has to be shown how to reproduce is just not worth saving, I don't care how fucking cute they are, they're fucked !!!

Choosing species we're going to pour millions into saving on the basis we perceive them as, "cute", is absurd.

Fucks sakes lads, Giant Pandas have existed for an estimated 3 millions years, they are know as a "living fossil". There is one major threat to their existence and that is humans, whether by habitat destruction or poaching.

Their reproduction is just fine if left alone in the wild, they've been at it a lot longer than we have.

Exactly, they've been around long enough without man-made rope ladders "proving" they're shit at evolution.

Humans are really fucking stupid at times.

Fly to Copenhagen and a quick hop over the bridge. It is almost exactly the same distance from Malmo as Malmo's own airport. [spoilsport/]

Isn't the toll fee something horrendous though?

EDIT - 61 Euros

I suppose there's a train/bus link though if it's cheaper

ummmm.....

They have to eat loads of bamboo because their digestive system is so inefficient at extracting nutrients from it.

Cat jump fails - they never fail to be funny.

Im completely disgusted, but annoyingly tempted...

It’s still not a carnivore.

BT Tower gooooooooooooooooooooooone..........to be an hotel!!!!

The iconic BT Tower in London is set to become a hotel, if its new owner gets its way.
BT Group revealed on Wednesday that it had agreed to sell the 177 metre-tall (581-ft) tower in the West End to MCR Hotels for £275m.
The grade II listed communications tower, the telecoms firm explained, had become increasingly obsolete given the shift to digital services.

That is cool

[TB63]

That is cool

I did try variations on that sentence, and, yes, they all sounded odd... Weird..

[Raggs]

Some variations are acceptable to my ears, but not as comfortable. Most are just wrong though.

[Gumboot]

How do you cope with the reality that someone you thought you were just communicating with in good faith yesterday, just like everyone else, and they assure you they're all good, just suddenly goes and tops himself.

Fuck

[Uncle fester]

Sorry for your loss mate

[Tichtheid]

I'm very sorry to hear that, Gumboot.

I came here to post a silly thing, but I'm not sure now.

Ach, I'll do it anyway, no disrespect intended.

I think it increasingly looks a bit shit to be honest, probably just needs to come down.

Little and old swap quite easily I'd say

Old little lady vs little old lady. One of them sounds right, the other doesn't - except if you stick a comma in old, little lady but then it changes emphasis of the description i.e. she's a little lady who is old, rather than a lady who is old and little. The little almost become part of the noun.

That whole frosted glass cubicle in the corner of the bedroom thing is becoming more and more common in NZ hotels apparently... it's a cheaper way to refurb and maximise room numbers.

But a pain when one of the occupants has to go for a piss in the middle of the night and lights up the whole room.

[Raggs]

I saw the shower at first, and thought, yeah, that's not so bad, who cares... then I noticed the toilet at the end of the bed! Not worried about turning the lights on, but taking a shit in the middle of your bedroom doesn't seem that great...
