“who had been protesting outside the station after a pigeon was killedin the town by a man on a mobility scooter.”

Simple; it’s a thug’s game, played by thugs and watched by thugs. (Source; grew up in ‘80s Britain - football violence ruined this game forever and scenes like this prove the point year after year.)

This annoys me intensely. I don’t own a tv or monitor from LG, but I do have an excellent (dumb) washing machine and fridge, I would have updated my TV which is currently a fairly basic Samsung TV, because of it’s ads and I’ve decided they are on my shit list for this kind of thing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luddite

The Luddites were members of a 19th-century movement of English textileworkers who were against the usage of certain types of automated machinery owing to their concerns relating to worker pay, child labour, working conditions and output quality. They often destroyed the machines in organised raids.[1][2] Members of the group referred to themselves as Luddites, self-described followers of "Ned Ludd", a legendary weaver whose name was used as a pseudonym in threatening letters to mill owners and government officials.[3]

I’m sure it won’t take long to infect everything.

I haven’t seen this apart from an account pop up that can be dismissed so far in UK.

Agree completely, I was thinking birdshot, not something for deer.

The reason I mentioned a type of shot gun, is that the distance it remains lethal is short, and if you’re shooting up towards something, it wouldn’t come down lethal like a pistol or rifle round, which could be dangerous for as long as it maintains a ballistic trajectory. But yes, not a wise thing to attempt in all seriousness.
