To be honest, a lot of times I say a lot of sh!t that just comes into my head and I don't engage my brain before typing. Then when you, Yukona and others debunk my BS, I look like a fanny and end up trying to BS my way out of it again even though I know I'm in the wrong.

Yeah, well, I know I can be a right c*nt at times. Debating is a skill I'm still working on. Problem is I think more with my heart than my head and then the crap flows. No excuse though.

I would like to personally apologise to you for that stupid remark I made earlier about the Conservative politician on the telly. That was crass and immature of me. I am sorry.

Oh, I'm very prone to spelling mistakes while doing so. And I'd be lying if I didn't say that I've dropped it a couple times and had it go flying when it lands on the running belt. Thank God for Otter Boxes.

But I find it works the same way that watching TV or listening to music works for other people. I keep stronger, more consistent pace when writing or reading. I do NS writing, respond to emails, read Wikipedia. It works for me.

MOIA was the first to agree with that and he said it would be fun. I TGed the Cabinet about it f course. When the Chancellor TGed me later that day about another matter, he did not mention anything, nor did I hear from other Cabinet members, except from Andy, who liked my posts about the RNF.

I do that with parliament diagrams. But if you search, I believe that you will find an image about the size you want. Another problem you might face is too large links. A link longer than two lines is no good. Another advantage of Imgur...

Your economy trend is weird. How'd you go from 97/100 to 16/100?

Is there a dangerous issue i'd like to know of?

Yeah there's a few IIRC. One of them asks if you want to switch to an agrarian economy and the other is about a strike in one of your main industries. I just always dismiss them.

This is why I never hop back into issues, the outcomes are like Jenga but without the fun and it always falls and the fact that it fell is all anyone talks about afterwards, honestly.

I've just got my place confirmed that I can go to Canada in 2019 - will you be around then? I'm either going to UoA or Toronto, I think. Hopefully Toronto, as my university really wants me to go there now because I exceeded my offer by quite a bit so they enticed me with a simple "Hey, Canada?". I was like, "you had me at year around hockey and cold weather".
