In the UK there was a 1980s children's TV show that taught children to be kind to society's rejects and that there is no shame to being a reject (should they ever become one!) and that there is nothing to fear from a person simply because they are a reject
As one of society's rejects I think it...
Paranoia is when you believe people are out to get you and do horrible nasty things to you - when they are not
But what do you call it when you believe that people are out to help you and do lovely nice things to you - when they are not?
Like "I suspect my neighbour from across the road from...
They sell underwear on Amazon
I did not know this until I just looked
I think others ought to know
So I created this post
Good price too
Not used underwear though, like what sleazy perverted Japanese salarymen buy from vending machines
Japan is weird

Does anyone here have any recommendations?
Anything awesome you think people should watch, that you want to evangelise about?
There is so much stuff on...
Do you have the number of any famous people stored in your phone?
I'm not asking who, only if
If so (and without naming names) how famous are they?
I don't have any famous people in my phone so I have nothing to share
What do people here think about Confucianism?
I have only just started looking into it and so far I have liked what I have seen
It has been said that contemporary Chinese society owes more to Confuscianism than it does to Communism
Why is it dangerous to mix water and electricity?
If I'm taking a bath and someone throws an electrical appliance that is connected to the mains into the bath-tub how and why would I die?
Is it something to do with water being some kind of conductor?
I have a question:
What things should a personal manifesto/ideology cover?
What should it address?
When I was a young man I wanted to go into politics
I wanted to become the socialist dictator of a European Federaton (years and years after I abandoned this I voted for Brexit...) and to...
I don't enjoy any of Shakespeare's works
They bore me
Maybe I would like it more if was in the latest most up-to-date version of English
Why do people like his stuff so much?
I think a big factor is that we are told from an early age that it is totally ace
I hate people who think their...
Yesterday I stayed awake for more than 22 hours straight which is a very long time for me
When I closed my eyes having finally gone to bed I saw a vision of dancing smurfs on a cruise liner and things like that
Some very crazy stuff but it was entertaining
I did not know that was a symptom...
I ****ing love trains
Does anyone here have a favourite type of train?
I like freight trains the best
Especially the British Rail Class 60 locomotive
They used to go past my house in the early 1990s hauling coal when I was but a lad
I like them because it looks like they have a funny expression
Why are people scared of ghosts?
I'm not scared of them
There's nothing scary about them
I don't get why they are supposed to be so very scary
A little unnerving, perhaps
But it's not as if they kill or torture people or anything
We might be having a family holiday next year
I fancy Canada, I have never been out of Europe and Canada seems a nice destination
When I was at university there was a Canadian exchange student who came into our kitchen naked and showed us all his penis
I've heard that it has some interesting...
This post is my 6,666th RF post
I think this is an achievement that deserves to be commemorated, hence this post
I am basically two thirds of my way to becoming a veteran member - I am 66.66666666% of my way there!
I randomly found RF back in 2016 and joined it as it looked interesting and...
Is anyone here planning on ordering any junk food tonight?
I'm going to order some fried chicken and a kebab later today
Because I'm a grown man and can eat whatever crap I want no matter how unhealthy o_O
The way I see it I am here on this Earth to have a good time, not to be some kind of...
If you could be a demihuman (a non homo sapiens humanoid) what would you be?
I'd be an elf
They are very long lived, can see well in the dark and are slim and tend to be good at magic
And I don't mean elves as in those little guys who work for Santa, I mean the high fantasy elves of Tolkien...
I have recently seen a lot of blatant animal cruelty on Facebook
I reported loads but they did nothing
All I got was lame and apathetic automated responses saying they were going to do nothing
They obviously don't care
It was people abusing baby monkeys
Sickening
I bet no actual human...
