As always generalisations are dangerous and usually can only reflect our limited experience.

I must say my experience happily with all humans has been good and most are decent.
I have met strange and unusual folk but they have often had mental health issues and still OK if you take into account their particular problem.

Here is a photo of my new pet bull, he is called Mars.
I said elsewhere he was named after the chocolate bar but I have now been told its after the God Mars as one of his roles was to protect cattle so his destiny has already been laid out.
He is really cute.

Why have they started using lawyers instead of lab rats in research?
Answer 1. The researchers were becoming attached to the rats.
Answer 2. There are things the researchers could not get the rats to do.

And while we're about, I have a standing reward for a photograph of the reflection of a lawyer at work. Even in this day of smartphones, nobody has collected yet... nobody I know has ever seen one eat, either...
Jezus... I nearly dropped my bundle laughing

He's beautiful Alex.

Mars is a wonderful name. In this single act I suspect you've done much more to protect cattle than the mythical God.

I did not name him Les.
So the problem is now Les there are now two bulls and in time one will have to go unless we can train them to be nice to each other.
Father and Son will no doubt fight.

Yes that is a problem. Why did you let them breed?

It's only politically acceptable if it is against the middle aged Caucasian male
What a load of tosh. White middle aged men need to stop sooking and become a part of the 21st century. Can't tell your racist, sexist jokes in public any more? Boo who.

I'm not so good at telling jokes, so I'll let these blokes do it.

This isn't a joke but it is one of the best feel good stories I've heard for a while.

The voice of tolerance and harmony speaks...
Not all white middle aged men tell racist, sexist jokes. Politically correct twaddle and the marginalisation of men in general is the real issue here and its comments like yours that lead to the election of that idiot in yankland.

Where exactly did I say that all middle aged whit men tell racist sexist jokes?

Marginalisation of men LOL. Give me a break.

Politically correct twaddle = being nice to people. We saw exactly what not being politically correct means when Trump got elected. All the racist, misogynist ********s felt they had free reign to abuse and harass anyone not white or in possession of a ******, under the guise of "free speech" or "anti-politically correct".

Settle down folks.
And remember what you say about someone else often says more about you than the person you talk about.
Let's all try and be funny and friendly.

"A Higgs boson goes into a church and the priest says, ‘We don’t allow Higgs bosons here.’ And the Higgs boson says, ‘But without me there is no mass.'”

A horse walks into a bar. The bartender asks 'Why the long face?'

A piece of string walks into a bar and the bartender says 'Sorry, we don't serve string'. He goes outside and things 'Right!'. So he ties himself in a bow and loosens little bits of fibre all along his length and partly untwists his ends. He goes in and orders a drink. Just as the bartender is handing him the drink he says 'Say, aren't you a piece of string?!'

'Nah, sorry mate, 'fraid not.'

A piece of string will go to any lengths for a drink it seems.
