The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Seems the Brits are catching on to what it's like trying to work with a USian "JC".

Many decades of 'special relationship' (prominently referred to in countless James Bond movies) gone down the drain.

UK's Parliament recognizes somberly:

The report concludes that the UK must reframe its relationship with the US and dismiss previous sentimentality about a “special relationship”. While the US remains a close ally, its strategic and political priorities mean that future relations with the UK will be far more transactional and interest based. The UK must therefore rebalance its approach towards the US—collaborate where it can but also hedge where it must in recognition of a partnership that remains vital but less predictable. This will include working with partners and strengthening the UK’s capacity to act without US support where feasible.
