Gareth_Glasgow Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 A status just posted by my usually sensible male friend: Not really one for posting on Facebook about personal shit so all i'll say is this: The last couple of nights have taught me a few good things about relationships, specifically that you shouldn't dwell on the bad moments because lifes too short to waste it on arguments and mistrust, move on, and think about all the good times that didn't make it a waste. Things always get better even if they look pretty shit from where you're standing, I know that first hand as do a lot of people who i'm sure will agree. As stupid as it sounds, arguments are good because they show the true side of people and they let you know who they truly are. You might fall out with them, you might even hate them and it takes a lot to see through it and put it in the past but if you're both able to do it then you know you have something not a lot of people do even if they wish they did. Hope this somewhat helps in understanding why I've not responded to a lot of you in the last two nights and I hope that one day we can look at each other and put the past in the past. He and his girlfriend are now back together and annoying the shit out of everyone on Facebook. I hope it all goes 'Sid and Nancy' at some point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 There was a facebook group regarding a McDonalds delivery service (is this a Fife related phenomena?) in Glenrothes which was shut down after someone complained about a wrong order and they were asked by McDonalds to stop the service. The comments on the page were hysterically bad, as hundreds of people cried the moral injustice this morning. I'd imagine by this point, there may be blood spilled. Sadly, I can't find the group, else I'd link it here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supras Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Regarding relationship breakdowns there was one on my feed which resulted in sports coach based adultery, assault on the victim of the adultery and now police protection and a jail sentence. The circumstances may surprise you 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunning1874 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 It's obviously always been done but it seems to be getting worse: whenever there's any kind of bad news story going around you see a load of 'omg want to get out of this shithole town/country' comments. Because, you know, Scotland is the only country in the world with any social problems and everywhere else is paradise. Half these people seem to want to emigrate to Australia or the US as well. Two countries with no crime whatsoever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Someone I know 'liked' a picture of a baby with cancer. It says something like 'Like this if you care. 1 like equals 1 prayer'. Lots of people underneath the picture are pointing out that 'likes' don't cure cancer. Which is quite right. Ironically, none of these fuckwits seem to realise that prayers don't cure cancer either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayrgirl Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 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!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
