@Improviso said in No laughing matter: Russian people don't see a smile as a sign of politeness. Instead, they think that a smile demonstrates secretiveness and insincerity. A Russian proverb goes like this — “Laughing for no reason is a sign of stupidity.” Similar to parroting Russian state propaganda then.

The Cirrus has been a staple of the flight-sim I've used for a long time. Link to video

@Jolly said in The Big Fat Biden Lie: Tell ya what...I'm not sure 81 million people voted for The Resident... TBH, I find it hard to believe that many people voted for either of them.

@Horace said in Three Attempted Hits: Would it actually serve Russia's interest in this conflict to be seen as having assassinated Zelensky? If he could credit Ukrainian citizens who were “fed up with the war” or something. Also, if you’re Putin and you need to decide whether to make him a martyr or let him live as a potential future rallying point, neither option probably seems good.

@Renauda said in It ain't journalism...: So why is Manson still in jail and not the two remaining Beatles? This sentence gives away the author as part of the conspiracy. We all know there's only one remaining Beatle.

Let me run down to the nearest 7-11 and ask.

@89th said in UPS, wtf: UPS and FedEx should take a page out of Amazon Prime's book where they often can show you on a map exactly where the package is as well as photo proof once its been dropped off. I'm pretty sure UPS do offer the map locator - there's a spot where this UPS truck frequently parks up where I walk the dog, and he sits in his van for a couple of hours, presumably to think about where it all went wrong for him. Not only do I get to witness his inactivity on my dog walk, I can also track him on Google maps!

I wish to make an official statement that all of the soldiers that Russia has sent to Ukraine to overthrow the sovereign nation of Ukraine will be considered war criminals in accordance with international law.
