Conscription

Bring back conscription now I'm too old. Of course though I wouldn't want the youth of our nation off somewhere spilling their blood and others.

But in years to come where will we find the overweight middle aged blokes puffing their chests and splitting the seams of their uniform while getting bladdered on Remembrance Sunday and proudly remembering their service years of catching STDs and playing wankbiscuit without actually getting anywhere near actual combat?
A whole new understanding of the confectionary 'custard cremes'...
 

And I'm pretty sure some of the boomers and "post-boomers" (?) opinions in this thread are pretty bigoted but hide behind the use of "some".
Hiding behind "some"? Or just using the word some correctly because to generalise is weak use of evidence?

Implying I'm bigoted? Oh my! That's a pretty dismal attempt to try not to lose face after I corrected your previous error. At this point I think you're purposefully just misreading things and are now just trolling. What I said was in the spirit of jest but also the result of keen observation and experience.

There are plenty of worse and more spiteful comments on this site on a daily basis- go and police those with your insults. If you're looking for an argument to try and win, I'd advise you to go look for somebody more stupid.

Face is intact - you're blaming *some* of a whole age group of people for problems your own age group either created or enforced only to pretend saying "some" of them are snowflakes. I know you're some top 10% IQ person in your own world and we just don't get the jokes, but some of the things you say - there's genuinely nothing to get.

Unfeasible task for some topics, Christopher.

I'm not sure anything that whatever my age group is has done accounts for the behaviours I suggested. They're behaviours that can be observed in certain, but not all, younger people today that I find peculiar enough to mention. How on earth could anybody possibly try and assert that all exhibit the same traits?

Please explain why everybody in my age group is to blame. I'm curious.

Also - according to measurements and statistics ... top 5% thanks, since you're challenging it.

No mate, I said some, read my post.

:hayee:
 
Thanks grandad

I mean I can answer your question above but why bother, you'll probably threaten me by promising to build a kitchen (in the next 5-14 months) around me to trap me or something.
I really wouldn't bother answering my question anyway. I lose interest in stuff so quickly these days, because nothing changes or makes things better.
