Same! I still have the certificate!

(Although I would have got 129 if my sister, who couldn’t spell, kept insisting that “than” is spelt “then” and wouldn’t stop bugging me throughout the whole test until I changed it, even though I knew she was wrong. Yes I am still bitter about it today.)

I lack real world intelligence, so bog all use that test was.

Daily reminder that the only reason this hypocrite even has citizenship is because her rich parents came here from Nigeria just for her mother to give birth in a private hospital, then bogged off back to Nigeria with her when she was still a baby.

After seeing this post, I was wondering what this was all about, spent a couple of minutes looking it up, only to get a PM from her.

Have you guys turned this into a summoning ritual?!

Does just viewing this thread trigger a message from her wth

Well, Cruise does like jumping on couches…

Some people can’t be happy unless they’re constantly angry about the people they were told to hate.

We call them gammons over here.

They provide simple answers to their problems. Easy scapegoats. My ex thought highly of Farridge, Yaxley Lenton, etc. He thought Trump wasn’t really racist, but was playing some kind of 4D chess to get the racist vote so he could drain the swamp.

My ex was pretty intelligent when it came to other things, but he fell for every lie coming out these grifters’ mouths.

One thing that’s significant: he still uses Facebook. Social media amplifes the right. It’s weird how on a completely non political video in incognito mode, YouTube will dish up right wing videos. You can watch one seemingly innocuous video and the next thing, you’ll get flooded with more and more extreme right content and before you know it, you’re far right.

It’s clear that my ex, and another colleague I had who’s into the right, parrot the same talking points they see on twitter and Facebook (classic one was parroting Musk’s civil war predictions during the Southport riots). They’re both anti establishment, without realising the people they admire ARE as establishment as they get.

Add an exclamation mark at the start.

This annoys me. It keeps showing me cyan, but only giving me the options of green or blue. Cyan is neither. It’s freaking cyan! It’s a subtractive primary colour!

(Don’t get me started on art teachers insisting the primary colours for paint are red, yellow and blue. Naff off with that crap. Go look at printer ink, then naff right off again.)

I think I read it wrong. I thought it was making fun of tankies. The mouse ignores the death trap for free cheese. The tankies ignore China’s abuses and praise it because it has free healthcare? I used to see that sort of thing unironically all the time before I blocked grad and hexbear.

Wasn’t that !conservative@lemmy.world? From what I can see the .ee one is still under old management. Or did I miss something?

No, my budgie could always recognise me, even when I wore a hat or a mask or coloured my hair shocking pink. At the beginning he didn’t like when I wore stripes though.

He was scared of anyone else (except one of my sisters, even though he rarely saw her) until he got to know them. I don’t know if he was going by my voice or what.

The garden birds recognised me by my clothes though. I had hand tamed a bird with mealworms, and he’d ambush me every time I went into the garden. And my mum got ambushed once when she was dressed similarly to me.

Do you think he demands his couch thanks him every time he services it?

And pro-SUV.

Who am I thinking of: idiotic nazi saluter.

You literally said the problem was with insulin producing spikes from carbs, and therefore you can’t eat a plant based diet. I just showed you evidence that you can indeed eat a plant based diet, carbs or not, and maintain healthy blood sugar levels. And can even reverse diabetes.

It was obvious from the beginning you were being totally disingenuous. I gave you the benefit of the doubt, but the fact that you’ll block over such an inoffensive message confirms my initial suspicion about you. You just don’t want to eat a plant based diet and will find any reason not to. You had zero interest in learning and are just here to argue.

Traditional Indian omni diet. You don’t need to go low carb. In fact the desired ratio is 80% carbs, 10% protein, 10% fat. She still had grains and other carbs. It’s about the type of carbs (slow digesting). For example bread will nearly always be high GI because the yeast has done the digestion for you. Whereas white pasta will be lower, because it takes a long time to digest. Carbs are good, as long as it’s the right type of carbs.

People who say they’ve reversed their diabetes by going low carb haven’t reversed it, because it would come right back if they ate carbs. It’s like saying I made my arm fireproof by not holding a flame to it. Whereas going high fibre, low fat, low GI will allow you to still eat carbs without sugar spikes.

As I said, look into the work of Neal Barnard, who has reversed type 2 diabetes without cutting carbs and without any other lifestyle changes besides diet.

That reminded me of that flash game where you could press buttons on a Bush action figure to hear some bushisms (like “when we’re talking about war, we’re really talking about peace” and “there’s an old saying in Texas, I know it’s in Texas, probably Tennessee” and “peeance freeance”?) and there was one button to make him spit out a pretzel he was choking on. I tried to look it up but I can’t find it :(
