ThatNiceMan asks: Have you ever been talking with people down the pub when somebody throws such a complete curveball (Sample WTF moment: "I wonder what it's like to get bummed") that all talk is stopped dead? Tell us!

Top Tip:
If entering into conversation with two lesbian members of Amnesty International and their friends, all of whom sport t-shirts saying "RELIGION: MYSOGINISTIC BRAINWASHING BULLSHIT" and "THERE'S PROBABLY NO GOD, NOW GET ON AND ENJOY YOUR LIFE" and similar, then it's probably not best to start opining about how, having brought oneself up on a diet of New Model Army, the Levellers, anarchy and rebellion, one is now rather bored with worthy, self-righteous tossers espousing "worthy" causes from the comfort of their warm, expensive houses which are heated using cheap foreign oil, and who wear whether deliberately or not clothes created almost entirely by child labour, and who appear to claim to support such causes primarily to further their own egos as a fashion statement, as opposed to actually caring about the cause.
They won't thank you for it.

I thought you were going into a rant about the civil war for a bit there.

I think there's no better time, really
Slacktivists deserve all the scorn they get, in my opinion.

And being the only non-meatdodger among them.

So your 'funny story' is
that you acted like a sneering, superior know-it-all, and people got upset.

Yes it is. And I was totally justified in doing so, as they were utter twats.

Touche sir, touche.
To be fair someone needs to tell people like that, if it were in my pub I probably wouldve been the one to have the outburst.
