I love this/these threads too, you lot are so funny, it really brightens up my day and restore the faith that there are intelligent, humorous, engaging and thoughtful people out there.
When you look at the media and some other things, you start to wonder about the other folk occupying this spinning ball. People just seem so much more willing to give up their lives and believe what they are fed than i ever remember. It's not really a brains thing. i think back and your average folk would just never have bought into half of what goes about and yet we have more access to more information than ever. Maybe that's the problem. Back in the day, people heard something and either though bollocks or true, they didn't end up down multiple rabbit holes trying to prove/disprove. Also the way that the algorithms work pushes people into reading similar stuff and doesn't provide them with a range of thoughts and opinions.
Anyway, enough serious stuff - I have Irn Bru Max in the house for DS2 coming home - where am i with that? T4 or 3 or 3 plus?
