In the news

As someone pointed out elsewhere, when did you last have to clean dead bugs off your windshield? That was pretty common when we were kids no?

All the time?

Yeah all the time, after driving on the motorway.

poor bugs @ nurseholiday, they never stood a chance !

Maybe they’ve evolved enough to read the green cross code and now avoid roads.

We used to go on camping trips from Norwich to Wales in a VW camper van in the 70s, you could have made a hearty soup out of the squished bugs on the front.

Defo more bugs in Oz 20 years ago. I don't think I've ever cleaned bugs off my car here.

It was Monsanto that got everything except glyphosphate effectively banned. I'm not sure how we are supposed to kill weeds if they ban that. It's in literally every single commercially-available weedkiller.

Pull them out with your hands or get fat people to do it.

Obesity epidemic... over.

I'm not sure how we are supposed to kill weeds if they ban that

Here's 12:

anyhow, insects will soon be extinct, no more mucky windshields

I once found myself in a very weird conversation about wether animals went to heaven or not (all deadly serious). Apparently the consensus was that they do. I pointed out that heaven would therefore be mainly insects due to their short life span and global biomass. Sounds more like hell to me, but there we go.

Only if they accept Jebugs Christ as their lord and saviour.

Potentially the best/worst possible venue for I'm a celebrity, get me out of here, depending on your point of view. (Assuming Ant & Dec get there OK, which they will cos they're canny lads, innit.)

This is poor.

You used to be my favourite forum funnyman but I’m going to start shopping around.

Something something Ant-ichrist something.

It's been a long day.

Out if curiousity I read up on not killing weeds... there are types you can use where you seed underneath, your crops come up, these are larger than weeds, you grab the lot, the weeds replenish soil, success result profit.

Doesn't work for all crops, but for things like wheat it does. The Dutch ages ago did this with clover...the yields soared (well it was a few hundreds years ago) as clover ploughs nitrogen back in the ground.

[yeah i am thinking about a veggie garden, hence the why do i ever know this factoid..]

And Louis C.K. goes full milkshake duck.

Why do I really like the performances of so many IRL fucking degenerate arseholes.

There's been rumours about him for a long time.

First exhibit, no?

Yeah I’m pretty annoyed that he’s a rapey pervy cunt.
