Good God. The mindless drivel that some people start threads about, never ceases to amaze me.

No, there is no difference between saying "I love you" and "Love you".

It is like saying "I will be there soon" or "Be there soon". All you are doing is dropping the personal pronoun.

RE: Make ALL drugs legal,............... take it away from teh criminals

My assumption was that he was talking about tobacco; which the "legalize pot" people trot out at every opportunity.

But you may be right - he could have been talking about alcohol (something I would like to see banned).

RE: Make ALL drugs legal,............... take it away from teh criminals

There can be little doubt that smoking tobacco, which you are clearly referring to above, is bad for a person's health.

But it is not a "drug" as you claim. It is not a mind-altering substance. Frankly, a cup of coffee can do more to change a person's mood than smoking a cigarette.

Smoking a pack of 20 won't do a blind bit of damage to your ability to drive a car, for example, unlike alcohol or marijuana.

So really you are not making a valid comparison.

RE: Cold War

A movie set in the Cold War, which is well worth watching, is the excellent German film "The Lives Of Others".

I would say that Jesus would not have cared for political labels of any description.

But today, those who most closely follow his teachings are invariably labelled "right wing" often with an additional word in front. Which shows how far to the left the "centre" of political debate has moved.

RE: Yellow vest bank run.

No, hadn't heard about that.

But I wish they would. If everyone tried to withdraw their funds, the bank couldn't pay them, and the entire system would collapse. Then finally we might get banking reform.

I'd be quite happy if my country borrowed Vladimir Putin or Viktor Orban.

I've always quite liked Erdogan and thought him a good man. Admittedly he is to me, just another foreign leader and I have not studied Turkish politics closely.

Damn that guy's got a good moustache.

He looks like a younger version of me.

Despite the message in the gif, my personal view is one can always trust a man with a moustache.

You must really hate your President.

Personally, I don't think one should invoke Satan, even in jest.

RE: Do you mind if two people hi-jack your thread...?

There is hijacking, which is a deliberate attempt to derail the thread.

And then there is the natural course of human discussion, where the conversation gradually drifts further and further away from the original topic.

The two things are not the same, but sadly some people confuse the two.

Style is, regrettably, not a strong suit of us Anglo-Saxons.
