I will always have a soft spot for Birmingham for giving us Black Sabbath. Luckily, I have never been there though, so the reality will not ruin it for me.

I once had to stay in Birmingham after a cancelled train. On leaving the station I was accosted by a drunk demanding cigarettes, who started swearing at me after I admitted I didn’t smoke. That’s my only experience of Birmingham, I have to assume it’s typical.

Yes I have, and I found it to be rather pleasant actually… But then I am from Wolverhampton so it could just be the comparison.

There’s an even larger one between the atlantic and pacific ocean, just north of the gulf of mexico.

Dont even get me started on the patch above the Indian Ocean. That thing must have the highest peaks on earth.

I had a good, deep, cathartic laugh at this I didn’t realize I was in need of. UK politics has been an interesting but unfun mess for a long while.

Why are you being so cruel about Ireland?
NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 18 hours ago
Ireland is barely in the picture.

I felt the joke would have had to be explained more if I’d said Alderney or Sark.

I genuinely don’t get why hating the UK has become so popular recently. Like, sure we have our problems, but it’s not that bad…

Brexit, probably. That lost a lot of international respect.

Have you not lived through the political shit show we’ve had? Brexit, COVID scandals, Boris Johnson, Farage, stagnating wages, poor productivity, inflation, high energy prices, NHS in crisis, housing shit show…and there’s no end in sight. Think the UK hasn’t been doing that badly is quite a willful refusal to see how we compare to the rest of the world and where we could have been if we functioned better.

randomly choosing a random outgroup to collectively hate on is funny sometimes (see: the fr🤮nch) Genuinely there is no other reason. sometimes people will create justifications/other explanations for it but really its just absurdist humor with a pinch of tribalism.
stevedice@sh.itjust.works 11 hours ago
Is it recently, though? As far as I can remember, specifically England has been the US of Europe. Or you mean the UK as a whole?

Maybe this is the remnant of the last technological civilization that collapsed and disappeared, leaving behind a super massive floating wastepile in the Atlantic Ocean and eventually settled into where it is today. Along with all the survivors that have long since forgotten where they came from.

What do you think would happen if a population stayed within its own cesspit of a gene pool for a thousand years?

My brain worked so hard to make this look like America, even though now I know it isn’t I’m pretty sure its still the USA

It’s North America from an upside down perspective.
