what the **** is wrong with some people? sick sick *******s. I'd do the same to them.

As much as I joke about cats being evil that is uncalled for.

[Psychosplodge]

Exactly, as much as I joke about exterminating dogs I certainly would never do that to one.

But FB make me sick. They can display this but can't remove a bit of cleavage or sideboob quick enough, especially if you're outside societies norms.
Or heaven forbid you post a breast feeding image.

But the link is fine.

Facebook is a useful tool for keeping tabs on your social life - and it shouldn't be any more than that.

It's slowly becoming something of an abomination - especially with cretins like Britain First using it to spread their hate and bile.

[Wolfshade]

Not to be confused with Britain Furst or Britian First.

[Mr Mystery]

Britian First are particularly amusing

But you know out of the three who is likely to be the last man standing on Facebook....

Worst cycling kit ever (possibly NSFW, technically fine though) :[url]http://road.cc/sites/default/files/imagecache/galleria_600/images/News/Worst%20womens%20cycling%20kit%20ever.jpg[/url]

I would normally just keep it in the cycling thread, but this is so bad I thought I would share it with everyone. This is the skin suit for Giro Toscana an all female Columbian cycling outfit.

yeah saw that on Yahoo, a bit ah risky isn't it, I'd hate to think what happens when it gets wet....

[Mr Mystery]

A though on Fracking.

Recent report suggests the water supply contamination in the USA was caused by sloppy well digging, rather than the Fracking process itself. Fair enough I guess, and whilst I remain an open minded sceptic, I don't have reason to doubt the report at this stage.

But, given there's a great many question about the safety and wisdom of the process, why are the UK Government so hot to get started? Surely we're in a plumb position - it's all down there, and in theory it can totally be extracted. Question is purely one of safety (and screw the NIMBYs, and their house prices. Needs of the many!). Why don't we kick back, and see what happens to those countries cracking with the fracking?

That way, any Chernobylesque whoopsies don't happen to us, and we can learn from mistakes the easy way, and likely wind up with a more up to date and efficient Fracking industry?

I just think more fossil fuel type stuff is pointless. regardless of whether or not it is safe, why bother? the government should be getting on the tidal, solar etc. and forgetting this fracking nonsense.

Call me a cynic but I think it's about the money that is to be made.
