Living Your Single Life to the Full – Londoners Prefer to be Alone

Living Your Single Life to the Full – Londoners Prefer to be Alone

The Martin Scorcese film Taxi Driver hit the nail on the head with the eternal loner, wandering the big city, all these people around — yet, so alone. In every big city worldwide including London, reside the Travis Bickle’s, alone, alienated, yet being single does not have to be quite as raw as that portrayal, in fact, it can be quite calming and peaceful.

London, the United Kingdom’s most ethnically diverse city, has a well-deserved
reputation for being the loneliest city in these isles. There’s plenty of night life but the
standoffishness of its inhabitants is legendary.

The Jam dealt with the theme of alienation in their hit single, Strange Town. Taking on
the perspective of an alien landing in the British capital, Paul Weller offered a stark view of the isolation felt by outsiders. Those words written in 1979 apply equally today.

But being single isn’t necessarily about moving to a new town or city. It can simply be
timing; friends in long-term relationships while you’re in ‘transition’ or wilfully single.
There’s a lot of that about; Betway Insider recently commissioned a study, What are the
Odds?, which took lifetime events and occurrences. There was a 1 in 8 chance of
staying with your first love; for most people it means they will know a long-term couple
who go from school through adult life together.

Yet as EurekAlert! found last year, being single isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Bella
DePaulo, PHD, observed that “the preoccupation with the perils of loneliness can
obscure the profound benefits of solitude.”

We’re not talking the Greta Garbo “I want to be alone” – OK so it’s a misquote(!) but
it’s been adopted by society – but finding the tranquillity to make sense of life through
the moments of ‘me time’.

There’s a difference between being alone and being lonely. The two are the mutual
preserve of the singleton. Indeed, the report claims that “when people marry, they
become more insular.” In contrast, single people were more open and felt more in
charge of their lives. That’s down to the compromises necessary in a relationship.

A key reason for the ‘never-marrieds’ being happier is goal-fulfilment. Contrary to the
widely-held and media-fed perception, single people are likely to enjoy a richer social
life than their married counterparts. The sole focus of their enjoyment is themselves and
no need to compromise over what activities or groups to take part in.

Swipe To Your Partner

​That’s not to say it’s all wine and roses. In the 21st Century, the electronic world is often
the basis for meeting new people. Dating apps are the way forward and the root cause
for the rise in Repetitive Stress Injury cases; who knew swiping left caused such
problems.

It’s hardly surprising that numbers of app users is increasing, even discounting thoseDating-App
searching for an illicit relationship. The number of marriages taking place up to 2014 is
dropping. In 1934, there were 342,000 marriages; in 2014, it fell to 247,000. That
doesn’t seem much but consider that the population of the United Kingdom was 46.66m
and had risen to 64.352m in 2014.

The underlying percentage in that eighty-year spell fell from 0.73% of the population
being married to 0.38%; that’s a staggering drop but hardly unsurprising with the
changing demographics of the population.

And while the age-old joke about men being commitment-phobes may be one of the
reasons for the change but it seems the modern-day Londoner is taking the concept to a
whole new level. It’s a city to have fun in, even for the worst dullard in existence.

London lends itself to the single life. Unless your salary is comfortably in six figures,
it’s unlikely that you own your own place or even rent a home by yourself. Flat-sharing
with a married couple is an uncomfortable experience unless you’re a couple moving
into the situation. With an estimated 60% of wages going on the average Londoner’s
wage, the bills play havoc with your wallet or purse.

There’s a massive plus side to this. It means you can lead a Peter Pan existence, living
like a student well into so-called maturity. This time though, you’ve got a disposable
income although with the rising costs of the capital city, it’s by no means certain that
you’ll be out living the high life every night of the week.

But DePaulo is using her research as a call to arms. The University of California
scientist is determined to promote equality of status for the unwed. “It is time for a more
accurate portrayal of single people and single life,” DePaulo declared. “One that
recognizes the real strengths and resilience of people who are single, and what makes
their lives so meaningful.”

Say it loud, I’m single and I’m proud.

Like Playing Games on Your Computer? Here are Your Best Free Options

This article focuses around some of the best free games that you can play.

They are available for download without any fee required and you can jump in and play at any moment.

Free games can range across multiple categories, and so do people’s interests. Someone with a strong interest for gambling might want some casino type games.

If you’re one of those people, you can check out freecasinogamesnodownload.com. In the meantime, make sure to also check out the games below.

Pinball Arcade

Pinball Arcade is a lovely little game that will keep you busy for a very long time. It’s the digital version of the beloved and oldschool game, Pinball. Just like the one in the bar or the arcade, Pinball Arcade lets you put your skills to the test in having a ball bounce around an enclosed area. It might seem like straight up luck for some, but after you’ve put some practice into it you’ll be able to control how many points you’re getting with ease.

Smite

Do you like tales of gods and goddesses? Are you fascinated by what the Greeks, Romans or Danes had to say about their gods? If the answer is yes, you should try Smite, a free game in which you can take control of a god, from any pantheon you choose.

All of the world’s cultures are represented and the game is working hard to bring in as many new gods as possible. If you have a thing for Anubis or Thor, you can step in their shoes in video game form and fight other gods in the arena.

Dota 2

Dota 2 is a game that was inspired and actually designed from a custom map of the popular oldie but goldie, Warcraft 3.

The map is called Defense of the Ancients, and when you put it in acronym form what do you get? That’s right, Dota. Dota 2 is developed by Valve, the company behind Half-Life 1 and Half-Life 2, and it is classified as a MOBA.

This means that two teams duke it out with magic and weapons and creatures and a lot of smashing, but also faithful minions that do their bidding. The end goal is to destroy the core of the enemy team’s base.

Sounds easy enough, but it’s not, as it will take you some time to get there, as you make your way through the forest, over the river, into enemy territory and past their deadly turrets that will fire at you when it sees you.

Star Wars ‘The Last Jedi’ Luke Skywalker Secrets Leaked

Star Wars ‘The Last Jedi’ Luke Skywalker Secrets Leaked

The six pieces of paper that were copied from production notes then dumped on the internet yesterday reveal that Luke Skywalker is something that has not been seen awhile in any Star Wars episode for some time, or a long, long time ago in a galaxy far away in the reaches of the universe somewhere up the rear end of Alpha Centauri in quadrant eight, twelve parsecs down under the Kessel run, and one up the Khyber Pass.

After much soul searching and deliberation on the implications this could have on Star Wars fans we can slowly unearth some of the leaked details and find out what they mean.

We can reveal that Luke Skywalker is the last Jedi. Also, Luke Skywalker is not only a jedi and has links with the Force, but he owns a lightsaber too. This incredible finding will have most fans gasping for air in sheer dismay, can you imagine, Luke also owns a lightsaber?

In the film, cinema watchers will be able to see Luke Skywalker holding the previously mentioned lightsaber and waving it around. He will also teach others to do the same thing. Imagine that? Luke Skywalker is not only a jedi but he can hold a lightsaber and wave it around whilst talking about the Force. Incredible. This new film will blow you away at the intricate details revealed once and for all.

But here’s the clincher. Luke Skywalker is not only a jedi, he lives on a rocky island where there is no food, no vegetation and is surrounded by freezing sea on a planet that looks suspiciously like Scotland or maybe Ireland. So not only is Luke Skywalker a jedi who can hold a lightsaber well, he lives on a rocky island in a distant sea with no food or water or anything. He does not even get any Amazon deliveries, and there is no supermarket around the corner to get some fags and booze, or even a chippy, or heaven forbid, some wifi. Absolutely shit around. Nothing, just a jedi with a lightsaber and an occasional person who comes along who wants to be a jedi too. This time though, we can reveal that it’s a wee lass who turns up on the rocky shore. The sad thing is, Luke does not shag her, imagine after all those years, a nice bit of totty lands on your shores, it would be a mad scramble to even get a sniff of her scent. But no, Luke Skywalker is a jedi who can hold a lightsaber and talks about the Force and lives on a rocky island with nothing there. That’s all he fucking does for fucks sake.

According to the leaked text, the film after this next one, will also feature Luke Skywalker back on the rock island, doing pretty much nothing again, but still holding a lightsaber and talking about the Force because he’s a jedi and maybe something a lil extra might happen, who knows? Can’t wait.

May the Force be with you.

Banned Film “Gone With the Wind” Now Gone With the Wind

Banned Film “Gone With the Wind” Now Gone With the Wind

American socialist run cinemas across the country are now banning one of Hollywood’s seminal historic pieces of history, Gone With the Wind.

“But we ain’t stopping there. We’re changing all the names of Southern state towns, so Gettysburg will be renamed as Kanyetown, and Charlottesville will be renamed as Obamaville, and the Dukes of Hazzard will be renamed as the Pimps of Jigga,” one of the directors of the board of Stasi Censors told the New York Times.

By effectively banning everything about the era of black slavery, the socialists not only erase history, but cause great harm on America because people will now forget about the symbols of slavery. They will no longer think of the injustice and wrong committed on African slaves all those years ago, effectively leaving history to repeat itself again, and again.

Without reminders of the past good or bad, humans are destined to repeat their history. Deleting all the marks of slavery only strengthens the hatred of the nigger, the eternal nigger is thus born. The socialists are inadvertently creating another backlash, they are opening wounds which were closed many years ago, and they are endangering black America once again.

One can never deny the conquerors of America, the European white stock built their nation, through immense cruelty and hardship, wiping out millions of Native Americans, and utilising the ‘inferior’ negro to build their infrastructure. Nevertheless, the white man possessed the cunning, the brain power to Lord over the others, without him, there would be no highways, bridges, trains, computers or governmental structure to hold everything together. There would be no scientific or technical accomplishments, no space travel or medical cures.

The hard truth is that without the ingenuity and sheer will of the European settlers, America would not be the immense power it is today, and it is to this end, that they will never give up their status, or old money, to anyone, least the black population.

Therefore, socialists and their permanent state of soviet equality revolution and their feeble attempts to erase history only strengthens the opposing forces of those who hold the actual keys to the conquering of a continent many years ago and the right to rule today as well as tomorrow.

Gone With the Wind

The African American problem will never be solved because the chasm is too wide, culturally, the rift is so wide that it will never be bridged, intellectually, scientifically or how ever much money George Soros throws at the various soviet justice warriors he aclaims.

The reason equality will never be achieved is not only because of difference in human ability, but because of the spectre of superiority. Blacks do not want equality, they want superiority, as do the whites, the yellows, the greens, the purples and all the others. This is the sad part about the human condition.

“I have no purpose to introduce political and social equality between the white and black races. There is physical difference between the two which, in my judgment, will probably forever forbid their living together upon the footing of perfect equality, and inasmuch as it becomes a necessity that there must be a difference, I, as well as Judge Douglas, am in favor of the race to which I belong having the superior position.” Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States of America.

The conquerors always win…but frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn..

Has Plastique Narcissist Macron Gone Over the Top With Makeup Bill?

Has Plastique Narcissist Macron Gone Over the Top With Makeup Bill?

Emmanuel Macron, the current French President has been chastised for his penchant for beautification and the extraordinary bills to the French taxpayer this is causing.

Mr Macron’s office confirmed a report on his beauty spending published by French news magazine Le Point, but said it was nothing to do with the ‘peasant class’ therefore they should just ‘shut up and eat cake’.

“The President is awoken in the palace by numerous servants in the morning who bring him his daily newspaper, lightly ironed, of course, then a continental breakfast avec some extra bits we cannot divulge to le public. After the calves milk bath siphoned from the best herds in Normandy, servants will attend to Monsieur President’s toileting needs, this requires a staff of four persons, one to lift, one to hold, one to shake and the other to wipe. The makeup session requires four hours and the dressing of the president an additional hour. After this, the hairdresser, who is flown in from the South of France every day, enters the living quarters for a preliminary discussion on how the daily styling should go, after much discussion, and sometimes argument, a decision is made and the hairdresser begins the day’s work for approximately three hours. Et voila, after all of that, Le President is ready to go to work,” Macron’s personal palace courtier, Jean Pierre Quatorze, revealed to the French papers.

The report said costs included the pay for a freelance makeup artist for television appearances and trips abroad as well as an ecouterie of staff for menial jobs numbering in the thousands.

But it is not the first time the hair and makeup bill for a French head of state has raised eyebrows.

In 2016, it was reported that Macron’s predecessor Francois Hollande had a hairdresser on contract for €10,000 a month despite him hardly having any hair.

Mr Macron, 39, became France’s youngest ever president in May after beating far-right candidate Marine Le Pen in the country’s election.

With youth on his side, the reason behind his expensive makeup habit remains unclear.

Archaeologists: Why Romans Had Big Butts

Archaeologists: Why Romans Had Big Butts

 

“We found some huge asses, I mean we’re talking Kardashian territory. The men had unusually big bottoms but the women had huge butts that sometimes dragged along the ground when they walked in their togas,” chief archaeologist and professor of anthropology at Oxford university, Dean Taylor, reveals in a new series to be aired on Channel 4 in the autumn.

Extensive research accumulated so much ass data that the team did not know where to begin. From the far stretches of the Roman Empire, from Brittania to Mesopotamia, the rears of Roman subjects somehow evolved over the centuries to include extremely large buttocks.

“Our theory is that it was an amalgamation of Roman culture and the food they ate. As each principality was taken over by the Romans, the locals adopted the Roman way of life, mostly sedentary accompanied with vast banquets and Bacchanalian practices.”

The team also found that the bigger the butt, the higher in Roman status the holder would acquire. Decimus Multimus, a Senator from Apulia during Emperor Trajan’s reign was promoted to Consul purely based on his ass size.

Depictions of Roman asses can be found from fragments of pottery and other tile art, but it wasn’t until 2016 when a fully preserved Roman butt of a female was found near Mount Vesuvius.

Pompeii

“We found our Roman butt Venus. Her ass is so well preserved in the volcanic ash that you can even see the pimples. The Italian Archaeological Society have advised us to keep her location secret so as not to create a butt pilgrimage for many thousands of tourists. However, our data shows that there was a massive increase in butt size during the reign of Gaius Caligula Caesar 37-41 AD. Much of this increase is probably due to the amount of Roman orgies and banquets during his brief reign,” the professor added.

So, what happened after the Roman Empire descended into anarchy and most of the territory was lost?

According to the team of archaeologists, people had to start working, tending fields and cattle, opening pizzerias and adopting the modern way of life.

“From big butts we see a gradual decrease in size until we come to the modern day Italians, who just have regular sized asses today. Let us say it has been a wonderful journey for the Roman people throughout the centuries.”

The Channel 4 series ‘Roman Butts and Togas’ will air in October.

Confederate Statues to be Replaced By 100ft Trayvon Martin Statues

After all the Southern states of America have been purged of their historical statues, the Soros founded foundations and infiltrated city officials have agreed that each spot where a Confederate statue used to be, should be filled with a Trayvon Martin statue.

Giancarlo Fuccini, renowned Italian sculptor was commissioned by the group who have taken over the City council to sculpt the piece of the angelic Trayvon, as a symbol of ‘peace’.

“I had a few reference photos of Trayvon, as he was such an angelic peaceful character, but instead chose to sculpt his likeness in the form of Jesus, coming back to us and preaching peace and goodwill to all men,” Fuccini revealed on Monday.

trayvon martin

The 100ft statue will preside over the pulled down General Robert Lee statue, after it was defaced and pulled down so unceremoniously last week by communist thugs on another one of their rampages.

Costing just under $52 million, the statue came under budget, and residents of Charlottesville were all too happy to foot the bill.

“My state taxes just rose by 40% and this year we won’t be able to afford to heat our home, but I don’t care, as long as we are all politically correct and abide by the communist factions dictating to us on what we should or should not keep from past history, I’m happy,” resident Albert Collins, 52, told the local newspaper.

The Southern Poverty Law Center, SPLC, a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt foundation head quartered in Montgomery, Alabama, is pushing for major changes to all historical statues that do not agree with its hard left agenda. Funded by George Soros, the SPLC has even recruited tech groups like Apple, Google and Facebook to police its heavy censorship, politically correct soviet agenda of complete erasure of history online as well as offline.

Hunchback of Notre Dame Takes Up Residency With Big Ben

Hunchback of Notre Dame Takes Up Residency With Big Ben

The bongs of Big Ben have not sounded for the final time for a four-year period of restoration work on the Elizabeth Tower. Au contraire, the bell still tolls…

The tower is undergoing a £29m programme of renovation until 2021, but the prime minister and several MPs have raised concerns over the residency of a mysterious hunchback in the tower who is causing chaos by ringing the bells intermittently and at odd times.

House of Commons authorities said a resident bell ringer had taken up residence in the tower late on Sunday night. The mysterious figure hails from Luxembourg via Brussels and the Notre Dame cathedral in Paris, France.

The Commons commission said it will review the efficacy of having the hunchback ringing the bell after complaints were raised, including by Theresa May, who said it “cannot be right” for the bells to be rung by such a “monstrous cognac swilling hunchback who does not even know the time of day”.

A handful of MPs gathered by the members’ entrance to the Houses of Parliament on Monday to point up at the spires of the famous clock where they spied the hunchback sticking his hairy naked bottom at them and farting in their general direction.

One formerly staunch Remainer MP was converted to euroscepticism on the spot: “I was outraged to see the vile hunchback sticking his derrier in our direction and telling us ‘English pigs’ to go ‘eff ourselves’, immediately I said to myself ‘..a hard Brexit and nothing else will suffice'”.

In New Palace Yard, 200 parliamentary staff watched the bell bong, as the Hunchback of Notre Dame, Jean Claude Junckimodo, swung from the ropes leering manically and wearing a fool’s crown on his deformed head whilst waving an awful blue flag with some ghastly yellow stars on it.

If anyone has any ideas or information on how to remove this meddling bastard, please contact the Houses of Parliament immediately? Thank you.

How to Walk On the Pavement in Europe

How to Walk On the Pavement in Europe

You could be walking along on any street in Europe on the ‘safe’ pavement, when suddenly an object travelling at 40 or 50 miles per hour hits you. It could be a van, truck, car or motorcycle.

How could this happen, the pavement is meant to be a safe place for pedestrians? Not any more. Not one single city in Europe today is safe from the terror of knowing that at any moment a van could suddenly appear over the horizon and mow you down like a pin in a bowling alley.

Suddenly your head swivels around, then crack, the van makes contact, your internal organs eviscerated, maybe your legs smashed beyond repair, or your brains thrown unceremoniously onto the warm pavement, the sun glistening with curiosity at their resting place.

The immediate authorities and emergency services cannot do anything, they only appear after the event has happened. The EU refuses to close the Schengen zone, so nothing will be done there either.

What is your course of action? How do you survive in a place where there is no safety, even on the sacrosanct pavement?

Here are some tips on surviving in Europe where you as a civilian are not safe any more.

  1. If you wish to walk on any pavement, do not wear headphones, as this will impede your hearing and by the time you hear the truck careening towards you it will be too late.
  2. Never walk in the middle of a pavement. Always walk away from the road on the opposite edge.
  3. Always look behind you when walking every few seconds. This could save your life.
  4. Never look at your mobile phone when walking. Distractions like this could mean whether you live or die.
  5. Never push a pram on a pavement. This is common sense, because why would you want to put your children in danger?
  6. If a pavement terrorist attack is occurring a few feet away from you, do not just stand there, get away, run like fuck, get out of the way.
  7. Never walk on pavements. Instead drive on the road or stay at home.
