It just makes me laugh how angry some people get on X/Twitter over something as trivial as a football shirt or sports emblem. It makes me wonder how they react when something genuinely bad happens to them. I suspect they might lose it big time :mrgreen:
Not at all . After all , you're just an insignificance on an internet forum .

To be honest , i haven't met anyone who is angry over a football shirt . Disappointed and wondering why the need to mess with the national flag yes . But not angry . They simply said they won't buy it . I've always found X/Twitter to be full of angry people so why you find it surprising that angry posts are there is beyond me . In fact , if you really want to see anger and bile on that particular platform , just find a thread with a poster who has a penis and 5 o'clock shadow in a dress and stockings who claims it's their time of the month . Then , call them a man . Fuck me , the anger over the England shirt ( if that's the example you're making) will pale into insignificance as soon as the screaming starts by those on the same side of the woke spectrum as you obviously are .

Don't get me wrong , i'm ashamed to say, i do get angry at times but that's in my day too day life . Real life if you will . I've never seen the point at shouting at a screen

Maybe not shouting at a screen but the fact that you've chosen to reference me in your signature (both directly and indirectly) at times shows you obviously do get angry here, a point reinforced by your 'insignificance' jibe.

I'm getting tired of the forum's pettiness. Some users seem to consider themselves morally superior solely because of their political preferences. Sad.

The fact that it's triggered you enough to change your signature to have a dig.

The country is an embarrassment rn.

The railway companies' service is shockingly bad, as I experienced during a three hour journey to London on Tuesday. Despite it being one of the busiest travel days of the year so far, they decided to operate trains with only three carriages. The train I travelled on was overcrowded, with passengers squeezed into every available space and no refreshments available, not even water. The toilets were dirty. Dreadful.

If other countries provide stellar railway services, why can't we? And don’t blame privatisation. Conditions were shite during the nationalisation era.

Rail services in many European countries (where quality of service and value for money is better than the UK) enjoy the patronage and finance of government departments, so the British model of worshipping private investment can be scrutinised as a failure.

If public ownership works, why did ours fail? British Rail controlled the services for decades. Now, unbelievably, the British Rail industry's expenditure is currently over twenty-five billion pounds. And for what? I can't see any improvements or decent service, can you?
