So follow my logic here, as it's rather complicated. If I eat the food in the fridge, there will be no more food in the fridge.

Anyway been poor has nothing to do with me spending money and everything to do with me not getting enough money. Rich people spend much more money than I do and yet they're fine, so clearly the spending of the money isn't actually the problem.

Dogs, and cats although they're unlikely to actually eat it, cannot eat artificial sweetener as their livers cannot break it down and it becomes toxic to them in moderate quantities. It is often used in a lot of cheaper chocolate, particularly American chocolate. Sugar's fine though, other than the obvious issues with it.

Somehow dogs cannot eat large amounts of artificial sweetener, got changed into dogs cannot eat small amounts of sugar.

It's also missing the pledge to not arrest people for eating bacon. Can we please get away from this ridiculous American style politics.

The conservatives don't need a new leader from the old ranks. They don't have anyone capable of doing the job already, so randomly replacing incompetence with other incompetence won't help them. They need to attract new talent to the party and I can't see how that's going to happen.

The only way they could survive would be to basically get rid of everyone and start over which is also incredibly unlikely.

Oh well, it couldn't happen to a more deserving bunch of people.

I see no problem I'm enjoying my seaside property. Although Coventry also survives so it's not all roses.

It's extremely high resolution, just have to zoom in. Anyway the town's useful because you can't really work out where anything is otherwise.

Although I've got to admit I'm not quite sure why they have tiny villages on there it's useful but I'm not quite sure why the decision was made.

There are all such things as antivirals though.

Better still there were a bunch of facts that were false when they were taught to you but for some reason were still taught to you.

Like the obvious one, the tongue doesn't actually have different regions on it for tasting different things, a fact that you probably didn't believe even back then because anyone with a sugar cube and 5 minutes can disprove that.

Yeah that won't work sadly. It's an AI we've given computers the ability to lie and make stuff up so it'll just claim to have done it. It won't actually bother really doing it.

They're pretty bad mostly they're actual Nazis too. Fortunately they have the combined intellect of a cantaloupe so they don't really pose much of a problem. Mostly they're just loud and irritating.

They're very vocal minority I'm not quite sure why a beer company would really want anything to do with them. The PR fallout doesn't seem like it could remotely be worth it.

It's the fish that keeps shooting themselves.

Yeah, there was a BBC documentary with him in it, and they actually demonstrate this. Various scammers are arrested and even sentenced, and then for some totally innocent reason a mistrial gets called, and it all has to go to trial again, and surprise surprise in the intervening time the police have managed to lose all of the evidence.

The only good thing about that whole case was that when they were arrested the scammers faces were broadcast all over national television in both India and the UK. Not that been shown in the UK will do everything, but I'm sure they don't have a great time in India because the locals hate them. Oh and also when the police are showing off their scammers, for some reason they make them hold hands with the police. It's really funny how unhappy they look about it.

When you reveal a spoiler the black rectangles go away and it then renders the text in white, but on a white background (light coloured theme) The text renders is exactly the same colour as the background and so you can not see it unless you highlight the post, this renders the background of the post as light grey and there is just about enough contrast difference to now read the text.

When spoiler text is revealed it should render in the same colour as normal text. I'm not sure why it's white.

See images below for demonstration.
