Luna Rossa Challenge. AC 36

Very true, so I guess someone in peak condition at the top of their game is poor example for kids watching? Try and catch the right end of stick next time you whinny bleached POM.

When does INEOS pack up their 5ktsb?

Nice deflection cunt bag.. 

if kids are too Fucking stupid to realise that  old Jimmy and every other Redbull athlete on the planet doesn’t actually drink that shit 24hrs a day  then that’s on you as a parent

 

[Rennmaus]

Personally I quite like his step daughter and don't give a shit what she calls herself. However when she starts trying to force me to call her by that shit, well thats when the bus stops. 

Does it hurt you in any way to respect her wish? What disadvantages do you have if you do? What does it take away from you if you do? 

My take fwiw: If I have the chance to not be an ass by a simple thing like calling someone by their chosen name, and that someone feels better by me doing so, I will gladly do it. The world is mean enough, why not be friendly every now and then?

They have every right to be offended if I get their pronoun wrong.

I have every right not to give a fuck.

I won't go out of my way to be offensive (SA denizens excluded, obviously), but if they have tits, and I've not been advised to the contrary, they'll be a "she".

People have just have to deal with being offended, as it's their baggage, not mine. Harden the fuck up.

As an isolated act? Certainly not a big ask, fully agree, looking from an elevated pow makes it different however. All these small acts moves the norm ever so slightly in the direction where people imagine any situation where they get offended just for the sake of getting attention and making and other withdrawal on the victim card.

But you're the one offended.....can you not see the circle you are perpetuating. Please don't harden the fuck up...that doesn't get anybody anywhere. 

 

[Nutta]

No, I'm not offended. I'm just sick of snowflakes being offended at everything on behalf of everyone else. They need to STFU and harden up as previously suggested. 

 

[Rennmaus]

Why not move the norm to a more understanding, friendly, caring world? What is so wrong about it?

Is the world we are currently living in so good? Was it so good in the 50s, 1800s, 1700s? We permanently moved the norms, it's called progress.

Scary part of this name transition is it’s driven by adhering to a social clique that’s entry ticket is issued by being recognised and hence accepted as having a negative personality difficulty.

The girl is 15 fucking definitely not good.

 

[barfy]

Hmmm,

Now this has seriously digressed OT.

Rockets, ¿Simon?...

Look, if someone asks me to call them loly, it certainly doesn't hurt me, or anyone else. Do onto others as they would like done to them.

 

[dullers]

A bit more on this, Buck, if you're interested. LRPP and most of the other starters, got zero engagement/fightback from ETNZ in the start box, the entire regatta, IMO. (I said earlier, they looked bereft of ideas, even when given the port entry advantage. So I doubt whether LRPP's dual helm was put under any pressure - which is maybe why it all looks to be moving smoothly. Then again, what the hell would I know?

I dont think bereft of ideas is the correct term. They seem to have the best boat so far and in my thinking taking risks in the start box is not needed especially avoiding coming off the foils. On the other hand if I am correct it will be a very risky strategy and by the time of the final they will need to be good at everything on the cse. The challenger certainly will be. 

 

[dullers]

Not sure who's out there, but miles North of Waiheke there's two suits of black sails moving pretty quickly along the horizon. Hell of long way out, so can't be certain they're AC75's, but they've certainly got a shift on.

You must be right because I saw B1 in the Solent at a distance and I to do a double take as I had never seen anything so fast with sails on. You cant mistake them. If you can see speed on the horizon it must be fast.

Your words are your own to control. Not for anyone else. You are both right and each according to his conscience .

The world does not work like that. The new normal will involve persecution of those who followed the old normal. One day even you wont be pc enough.  Anyway the boats are out again and is my favourite boat Ineos on the go?

Because then you end up with the situation in Canada where attempts have been made to  make it illegal to not use someone's preferred pronouns. 

Freedom of speech is the single most important concept that humans have ever created and we have seen many cases of genocide brought about by the ability of people to suppress it.

So whilst I am happy for someone to call themselves whatever the fuck they want, if they attempt to force me or others to then they can fuck right off.

If it comes down to a choice of those snowflakes and free speech, then I have a strong preference for a firing squad. It would cost fewer lives.

Spot on. This progress resulted in some good things and a small thing called WW2. Let alone the wars we have had since. Any way what is happening in the boat shed for INEOS?

What is so sad is people are so stupid and blind. What parent would expect there children to be responsible for there {the parents actions} and to have to be remorseful and ashamed of them. While they believe there life's will not be judged poorly by the future generations. The world has seen this type of action before it started on the 8/3/1917 and about 60 million people died before it fell apart on the  9/11/1989 socialism is like looking at a chocolate covered cake that is full of cow shite under the chocolate. It only benefits a few wile imprisoning most as slaves to the few. 

Personal I don't care what colour or sex you are, and I font need to know. I only care who you are !

Completely up to you what you do.
