Re: Brainbomb vs MajorMitchell
Hmmmm.... tricky... In a contest of combat, obviously it's the Major as he's hard as nails behind his well maintained soft and cuddly persona. However, if it was a game of wits... Well, the Major would clearly walk it for obvious reasons On the other hand, if it was a sporting contest... You'd have ...

I mean, maybe... but presumably they're playing Diplomacy first

Re: Death Star vs 4 Borg Cubes
A battle between them would resemble a fight between a Spanish Galleon and a a modern oil tanker whose only weapon is the ability to ram. After the first amusing hour the following weeks would get pretty damned tedious. Oil tankers can't take much punishment, so the galleon would likely win in spit...

Re: Death Star vs 4 Borg Cubes
The first death star had no ship targeting ability, and took an age to power up its planet killing weapon anyway. The Borg cube is significantly smaller and has weapons designed for fighting starships rather than a space station the size of a moon. A battle between them would resemble a fight betwee...

The Murdoch Myth
Left wing political activists and Rupert Murdoch don't have a great deal in common, but one thing that unites many of them is an unshakable belief in the power and influence of Rupert Murdoch. This is, of course, utter bollocks. The Sun, regardless of what it likes to say in its headlines, has never...

Re: Has former British PM Meg Thatcher been reincarnated in Brainbomb's offspring of feminine gender?
Piers Morgan isn't a Conservative. He's not a leftie either. I think he's best described as the lunatic wing of centrism. Well, not lunatic as such... more just deeply unpleasant. I don't know what political commentary you're listening to, but it sounds suspiciously like the brand of mindless optimi...

Re: War, what is it good for?
Not the nuclear site itself, in fact. Israel, in a brilliant display of hotspur, targeted the missile defence system that protects the nuclear site. So, the dialogue of the last few weeks can be summised as follows Israel assassinate Zahedi while he thinks he's safe in the fake consulate: "We're pis...

I am firmly of the opinion that Iran should be negotiated with, that their internal protests should be given every opportunity to succeed - rather than attacks which will risk a generation who trusts that only the government can protect them from foreign threats (like North Korea's dictatorship rel...

Re: fans stunned to learn that sport they dont watch has pay inequality to sport they do watch
Why is that exactly? Is there just a very strong sense of affiliation between people and the colleges they attended as young adults? I think it's more of a regional thing than alumni. Two schools in an area develop a rivalry (or an interconference rivalry exists) and people jump on the bandwagon. I...

Re: War, what is it good for?
The responce i would expect from Israel would the bombing Iranian drone factories. Because that at least could be seen as self-defence/pre-emptive strike. G7. Maybe so. I guess it depends on whether they have identified viable targets that would seriously degrade Iranian capability. Or, or course, ...

Re: War, what is it good for?
I have to admit that the whole God fearing philosophy is somewhat alien to me. I guess you could fear God in much the same way as you can fear the sea or a storm. It's not out to get you, but it is inherently powerful and not what you can call "safe". But I can't say I ever have. Still, so far so go...
