      Why didn’t you type “read the FA”? For exactly the same reason

      This community is shit now, it’s just bombarded with US news that drowns everything else out

          CT where I live means “Contrôle technique” though. I’d be inclined to specify if I posted that

              Sorry champ but you’re wrong. I lived in the US for half a decade and even I struggled to place CT. My first thought was actually that it was a Canadian province. Not everyone is raised thinking America is the defacto for literally everything.
