Ferdia Earle has climbed Femme Fatale in Glen Nevis, a Cubby E8 from 1986. Apparently potentially only the 6th ascent in ~40 years!

Rebel Moon Part Two, as pretty looking and as terrible as the first, but now also featuring a coal fired space ship?! The amount of yes people around Snyder that allow this tripe through must be astounding; but it's been top 5 on Netflix for a couple of weeks, so I'm sure he'll be getting the cash to make another one.

Finch, which is on Apple TV. Tom Hanks on an oddly feel good post-apocalypse road trip.
Argylle, is amusing, if utterly daft, too.

Wow, I can't believe it. Guys, you've actually managed it. This is officially the most boring thread to ever be created on here. Congratulations!

C’mon, don’t be cunty.

The word 'c***y' was reclaimed by the queer voguing scene of the late 80s, and popularised in that idiom by Beyoncé's seminal 2022 album Renaissance.

So you’re saying UKB is a hang out of the queer voguing scene? Or that many users are guilty of cultural appropriation?

That said, that hasn’t been the word used on many occasions. Also, many posts in the thread, including the initial post, are fair enough. But quite a lot would appear purely for the titillation of their author, simply because of the word in question.

Had the word been “runt”, I posit that there would have been significantly less interest, despite being equally “euphonious” in any sonic sense.

If T-Crack was 8B, the unmasking of drone cunt would be a relatively simple deductive process. Cross referencing any number of ‘8B wad’ drone cunts operating in the area known for their proclivity for swearing with recent social media postings and the 8B list floating around. Drone cunt isn’t an individual.

I don't often use the word 'c***' because most people see it as a highly offensive term, however personally I don't have any issues with it.

I don’t particularly like the word and the way it is used in the present, regardless of its history. But, in the main, I wass mainly just using this thread to demonstrate that it’s not always very clear what is and is not offensive to different people. And that stepping in to “do the right thing” is rarely as clear cut as some people seem to think.

As an adult woman, I would like to join in to say that while I'm not mad keen on "c***" as a term of abuse, "C***y Drone Man" is delightfully euphonious.
I certainly didn’t mean to imply that males have a monopoly on puerile behaviour, simply that only men (AFAIK) had up to that point participated.

Carry on.
