Earlier today someone tried to tell me that you hardly ever got random stabbings and knife crimes in Manchester in the 1990s.
So I thought I would pick just one year 1996 - only coz it's exactly 30 years ago - and pick out just SOME of the incidents in JUST ONE local newspaper.
“I fucked your sister. Nice pussy.” Wholesome family fun always at the annual @UJAFederation Walk With Israel in #Toronto. We are supposed to believe these people feel threatened, as they go around yelling such depravities in front of their own children.
@lilautisticcat@nocontextfooty "at least he tried" is good when you're coaching 12 year olds, it does not cut it when you're looking to win the World Cup
@OfficialLoganK@_oliveiradanilo Is there any way to make sure this doesn't happen again? One of the main reasons my company doesn't touch Google products is that the only way to get problems sorted is to complain here or Hacker News and then hope a sympathetic product owner spots it on their coffee break
@KlezmerRouge France being "not the greatest" and Czech, Poland and Germany being "like it" is hilarious. I love Czech food but it's extremely Hungover Guy coded and can't compare to the best France has to offer.
@Tim_Vickery I'm Scottish and didn't think it was anti-us, like getting beaten by *any* country 4-0 is cause for concern when you are in CONMEBOL. I think a few Online Dad-types are feeling a bit nervy ahead of the tournament and are coping by lashing out.
