I've not heard of White Wednesday or any hijab removal arrests - I can do some digging with Iranian friends to confirm though. My impression has always been that the regime is backward and strict but not as backward and strict as some other neighbours and not as bas as it is portrayed by anti Iranian regime western propaganda. I don't have a 'shitter' account so can't see the link
A new social media campaign against a law which forces women to wear a headscarf is gaining momentum in Iran Headscarves, not the 'hijab' which brings images of letterboxes thanks to BloJob Still, a bit shit to make people wear stuff if they don't really want to and then throw them in the slammer (if, indeed, they do that for the outrageous infraction)
I’d like one but have no metalworking facilities; I’ll have to find a local blacksmith. Mind you, see below, there may not be enough room. You’re getting me worried now I’m going to have to check today. I would but there’s no money left in the COFFERS to buy some more drill bits Why? Tis done already, top quality peanut butter.
A certain amount of trolling and TRIGGERING going on in this post. You'll be hearing from my solicitor. @PaulPhillips Paul, I may have a bit of business for you, some keyboard warrior on the internet causing big trub ...
For info rom an Iranian colleague; Apparently there was couple of cases in the past 4-5 months and couple of women were arrested at that time but as far as I know nothing recent. To be honest I think this is more anti-Iranian propaganda now which was originally started by US Some truth but perhaps not as bad as reports?
Flock of Seagulls ..... Ha ! Remember Jules in Pulp Fiction ? " Hey you , Flock of Seagulls ! " .... classic I Ran It grates , every time I hear an American say it . Try going up to the passport window on arrival in the states , and saying " Is this the "Eye" -migration desk ? " Actually , do not do that .... those people have no sense of humour whatsoever On my first flight they gave out visa-waiver forms for tourists , and one of the questions was - " Are you entering the USA for the purpose of committing acts of terrorism ? ..... check Yes or No " I'm not making this up ! Subtlety and dry humour are just alien to them . What was that about a sprocket ? @PaulPhillips Sorry ....
I remember that question Absolutely no sense of humour whatsoever in any immigration point in any country, but I think America does actually win
My father in law was taken aside and given a massive dressing down by an American immigration guy. No sense of humour and FIL made a joke and did the Meet the Fockers classic and said "it's not like I've got a bomb"... The B word in an American airport
So that's a video of you in action is it ? Exhuming a dead thread ? ..... for no other purpose than to enjoy a bit of casual exhumation ? Subtle , very subtle ...... meanings within meanings ...... I like that , a lot ! Nice one centurion ....
It’s about time this thread has a resurrection. Quite simply the best thread ever. Happy New Year @West Cork Paul
Strictly speaking , it never actually died . It was just lying about in the background ..... twitching a bit . Somebody mentioned it just recently ( erm .... that might have been me , actually ) in reply to a difficult job that was giving grief to another member ...... I think I called it "epic" . @West Cork Paul ..... have you considered selling the movie rights ? I might be available to act as your agent .... your "Mister Ten Percent"
I honestly think this should be made compulsory reading for every new member. Just as a taster of what’s to come.
