  1. That must be yon carpark at the Glennifer Braes in Paisley, am I right? 'Carpark in the sky' is quite possibly the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard in my life.

    Aye, not quite sure why someone would go to a car park (with two other males) at 2.20am...

    It now has 16 likes, he has 1295 "friends"...

  2. The Crazies (2010 version)

    To be fair, I'm actually in the middle of watching it still but it's the 3rd time I've seen it. Went to the pictures to see it too and didn't have a clue what it was going to be about as I just turned up with my mates and watched a random film.

    Have to say though I thoroughly enjoyed it. Second time round it was just as good, if not better. Right now I'm struggling to actually get into it, but it's still quite fresh in the memory from previous times.

    Not my average movie, but I still enjoyed it with a good, gripping storyline.

    8/10 for me.

    Have you watched the Romero version? It's a different style of film but as with all his films he creates much more engaging characters.

  3. Surprisingly his post at the start of the season saying "Just wait til Oct 26th, you'll all see then", seems to have been a lot of shite.

    He was clearly just trying to raise some hope... ironically that was the day that the producer of the TV show "Raising Hope" died of an apparent suicide (although possibly a heart attack from a reaction to medication).

  4. At the moment my page is full of The Rangers fans talking about the 31st Dec and trying to keep it secret from "them". Anyone else got this pish?

    This is weird, I live in an almost exclusively Zombies part of the country, and I have no mention of this on my Facebook feed. Admittedly only about 5% of my friends list I would class as Rangers "fans".

  5. You've no idea how much I'd love to do that but I get on with her boyfriend and don't want to rip into his bird in front of everyone.

    Comment count is now 17 but thats just a conversation with her sister saying how shit fb is and that she won't be on it again. She has posted four inane shite status updates times since this empty promise.

    1) watching tele - at in my bed

    2) how many twilights are they?

    3) trick or treat

    4) canny sleep

    Please say "it happens every day" to status 2, I beg you! :D

  6. Someone on my Facebook posted:

    "♥ Just To Let Anyone Who Has Asked Know, Incase They Don't Already Know & Wishing To Pay Their Last Respects To My Wonderful Gran...

    Funeral of *Gran's name* on Monday 22nd of October at 10 50 Co-op Denbeath Parlour then after at Mcduff cemetery at 11 45 anyone wishing to attend ♥"

    three times a day for 10 fucking days from the woman's death on 12th October til the day of the actual fucking funeral. In fact, going by the timings of posts, she sent one either from the funeral, or minutes beforehand.

    Every single time it was posted, it got at least 20 'Likes'.

    It was her, with the candlestick, in the conservatory (now called the spa). It's clear as day.

  7. This is the latest gem doing the rounds

    Loved this!Anyone age approx 35 or over should read this - copied from a friend ... Checking out at the supermarket recently, the young cashier suggested I should bring my own bags because plastic bags weren't good for the environment. I apologized and explained, "We didn't have this green thing back in my earlier days". the clerk responded, "That's our problem today. Your generation did not care enough to save our environment for future generations". She was right about one thing--our generation didn't have the green thing in “Our” day. So what did we have back then?After some reflection and soul-searching on "Our" day here's what I remembered we did have.... Back then, we returned milk bottles, pop bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled, so it could use the same bottles repeatedly. So they really were recycled. But we didn't have the green thing back in our day. We walked up stairs, because we didn't have an escalator in every store and office building. We walked to the grocery store and didn't climb into a 300-horsepower machine every time we had to go two blocks. But she was right. We didn't have the green thing in our day. Back then, we washed the baby's nappies because we didn't have the throw-away kind. We dried clothes on a line, not in an energy gobbling machine burning up 240 volts -- wind and solar power really did dry our clothes back in our early days. Kids got hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand-new clothing. But that young lady is right. We didn't have the green thing back in our day. Back then, we had one TV, or radio, in the house -- not a TV in every room. And the TV had a small screen the size of a handkerchief (remember them?), not a screen the size of the country of Wales. In the kitchen, we blended & stirred by hand because we didn't have electric machines to do everything for us. When we packaged a fragile item to send in the mail, we used wadded up old newspapers to cushion it, not Styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap. Back then, we didn't fire up an engine and burn petrol just to cut the lawn. We used a push mower that ran on human power. We exercised by working so we didn't need to go to a health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity. But she's right. We didn't have the green thing back then. We drank from a fountain when we were thirsty instead of using a cup or a plastic bottle every time we had a drink of water. We refilled writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen, and we replaced the razor blades in a razor instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull. But we didn't have the green thing back then. Back then, people took the bus, and kids rode their bikes to school or walked instead of turning their mums into a 24-hour taxi service. We had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances. And we didn't need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 2,000 miles out in space in order to find the nearest pizza joint. But isn't it sad the current generation laments how wasteful we older folks were just because we didn't have the green thing back then?Please post this on your Facebook profile so another selfish old person who needs a lesson in conservation from a smarty-pants young person can read this!!

    :rolleyes:

    I take it that the moronic c**t of a life-form didn't quite get the irony of posting that bullshit from their electronic "computerized [sic] gadget"?

  8. Why do people post pictures sideways or a strange angle? Especially if the whole point of the photo would have been straight on if it was the right way up.

    Cos they take it with their phone and post it straight from there without knowing how to turn it round?

    Just checked to make sure none of mine were... thankfully not. :)
