I'm trying to think if I've ever heard anyone say, "I'm going down north" or "I've been up south."

I need some men to volunteer to come.round to my house to help Shadow desensitise.
I'll do it if you pay my air fare. And give me some beer money. And a few days off to go and see my sister. Maybe some salt and vinegar hula hoops. Call me. We can make this work.

There were real videos of Palestinians celebrating in Gaza and/or the West Bank, the fake ones were in New Jersey, that Trump claimed to have seen at the same time he claimed to have been helping out in Manhatten, and joked that with the Trade Centre collapsing he now owned the tallest building in New York.
But weren't the Palestinian videos old footage showing celebrations of a completely different event? Or maybe I just read something that had been made up. Who knows?
Re a 9/11 conspiracy, I'm more inclined to believe incompetence on behalf of the Bush Administration / US security services contributed to the event being allowed to happen, rather than them specifically causing it.

Pretty much everything that’s been posted already.
Also people crunching ice cubes, people cracking their knuckles, babies crying, toddlers screaming, muzak, especially Christmas muzak, people using the speaker on their phones in public, people with speakers attached to their bikes or backpacks, the neighbours’ party I wasn’t invited to, dentist’s drills, Kenny G, cockney accents, the theme from the Great Escape when England fans sing it all the way through games against Germany, the sound my car’s brakes have just started making, people who sound like Joe Pesci (with the exception of Joe Pesci), people repeating back what I say in what they think is my accent, Velcro pulling apart and probably many more things if I had the energy to think of them.

Cirsten Weldon (whoever she is) is dead.
I Googled her. Apparently, she was a QAnon star (sic), who declared "Only idiots get vaccinated for Covid."
That was before she died of Covid.

This is either a PTTGOYN or one for the Pregnancy and Parenting thread but from about lunchtime today my 8 year old son has been trying to put an Ultimate FIFA team together via some app/website. He keeps asking me who the best RB/LB/CB/CM/GK's in the world are.
I've now realised that my knowledge of world football is really really poor
Just have him memorise the Falkirk team.
ETA: f**k off @Bairnardo

ADHD
Now there are plenty cases where kids have issues but at the previous school there was a family where all five kids were diagnosed. They were just unruly little shits with scumbag parents.
At least by having 'diagnosis' school got money for ASNA to basically chase them around the school while the parents gave it poooorrr wee Jayden and boast about how they were getting a fortune in DLA.
I’ve encountered people who tell me their kids have ADHD in a tone that sounds like they think it means “A PhD”.
No, your kid is a horrible little brat because you’re shit at parenting.3 -

I'm confused; what did they do with their garbage before?
It seemed to get stored in the streets in gritty '70s films about urban decay, but it was all nice and clean by the time Carrie was chasing after Mr Big.
Mountains of bin liners full of stinking crap on the pavement.

"If they win on Sunday, they will become the first England football team to lift a major trophy since 1966".
Nice wee reference to 1966 in the first paragraph of today’s match report too.
“The Lionesses, looking to become the first England senior side since the men's team in 1966 to win the World Cup, suffered heartbreak after being outplayed by a Spanish side full of flair and creativity.”

So what you really want to happen is for the ferry hooter to sound, while the guy is on the phone to his boss.
Or the ferry to hit an iceberg.
As long as @Derry Alli gets away safe, obviously.0 -

I'm on a ferry across to one of the islands and I have spotted some lunatic running around with a laptop and headset on. He's obviously searching for a signal for whatever teams meeting he's on.
Why would you schedule this when you're aboard a ferry?
He normally works from home and hasn't told his boss that he's taking a holiday. He's hoping that as long as he checks in via email a few times each day and makes a couple of phone calls, nobody will notice he's gone. Then some chunt went and scheduled a teams meeting right at the time he's on the ferry and he's frantically trying to avoid getting rumbled.

The "swish, thud, thud, swish" of mountain bike tyres rolling over some sweet single track.
Watching my puppy playing.
Snuggling into bed when you're absolutely knackered and knowing that you don't have to be anywhere tomorrow.

Clear correlation with the popularity of rock music there.
Dubious that there were almost 800 on the go in the early 80s but the increasing popularity of prog though the 70s would certainly explain it.

Margaret Thatcher was first elected to office in 1951. She became Prime Minister in 1979. And she died in 2013.

Around 13 years ago, our whippet chased a squirrel up a tree on Seafield Moss near my in-laws house.
Every time we visited from then on, she would rush up to that tree & stare at it expectantly. Right up to her death around 7 years ago, she believed that that squirrel was still up there...
Haha. Aye, we had a husky mix that once chased a chipmunk into a drainage culvert. Fortunately, the dug was too big to get in past her shooders or we'd have had to fish her out every time we went by,

My previous daft mutt used to chase squirrels, watch them run up the tree then stare at the bottom of the tree as if to ask "where the f**k did that squirrel magically disappear to"
I've often said that if a squirrel dressed in a UPS uniform ever tries to vacuum my house, my dogs will protect me. Otherwise, I'm on my own.

Well I don't see you keeping the property safe from squirrels Dad.

17 years, ffs. Almost half his adult life. Imagine how lost he'll be trying to reintegrate into society, get a job etc. Christ, Falkirk were in the Premiership when he went inside. He'll be totally lost.

OK, I'll admit I was just a little intrigued, but she didn't offer the link and like @BTFD above, I sure as hell wasn't going to ask for it. Plus, I really wouldn't want that showing up on my credit card record.

Have any P&Bers been encouraged to subscribe to a friend/co-worker/family member's sex work account?
Yep. I worked, very briefly, with a lass who never tired of bragging about how much money she made at her "other job", which happened to be an Only Fans account. Given that she was a hideous mutant with her clothes on, I'd be surprised that many folks would pay to see her with them off, but I suppose there's no accounting for taste.

On the spatial awareness thing...supermarkets are terrible for this. When people want to stop and study the products on the shelves, they never seem to notice that someone else is doing the same thing on the other side of the aisle so the two of them are now blocking access for everyone else. That, or if they have the space to themselves, they'll park their cart diagonally across the aisle, thus achieving the same result.
A pox on all their houses.
