From my outside perspective, it's the pledge of allegiance.

Do you really have your kids stand up every morning and swear an oath to your flag? That's some real cult shit.

Did you have a riot? Did you throw back a bottle of beer?

I - a bloke - sometimes paint my nails. If they're still painted when I go to work you can guarantee I'll get a few comments from guys questioning whether they "should be worried" around me*.

For me, I try to take the view that there's already enough negativity, so I try to be as positive as I can in my online interactions. If someone gets needlessly arsey with me, I'll try to sympathise with them. If they don't react well to that, I'll leave the thread. I'm not changing anyone's mind, not even yours.

NJB is the shit.

I will never, never visit Fake London.

I don't use iOS any more, but I found that a combination of Safari + adblocker + Vinegar was the golden setup. No ads, and you get to use the default iOS video player.
