BFTD Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 it is a long standing tradition that all young boys get their first glimpse of a jazz mag hidden under hedges........am certain I saw my first porno under a hedge at a lay by on the A9 near Bankfoot circa 1986/87. Aye, we found somebody's stash under a hedge at the perimeter of our school. Must have been about eight years old at the time. Who are/were these people that hide/hid gentlemen's special interest material under hedges? Especially near schools FFS 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially near schools FFS Saville IMO Considering porn under hedges seems to have been such a common thing, I'd say that the old b*****d would've needed to be busy, but that's exactly what he was, so... Terrifying to think what a close call we may all have had. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banana Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 (edited) One of my subjects at Uni was 'Management'. It was a pile of pish and I'm pretty sure not one relevant, applicable skill for working in a business was taught. I can only imagine the graduate interns you get in big corporations from such courses are absolute headless chickens. I'm coming around to the probably-not-too-controversial position that university is a waste of time for some subjects. You'd be far better off getting 4 years on-the-job training, mentoring and real-world experience... assuming you get decent training, mentoring and business exposure. Of course you miss out on the piece of paper and lager-fueled Monday, Tuesday & Friday afternoons at the union, but hey.

Of course you miss out on the piece of paper and lager-fueled Monday, Tuesday & Friday afternoons at the union, but hey.I think most people know that though. Other than medicine ad possibly a few others, most university courses aren't teaching you exact stuff you'll use in exact jobs after leaving. But the vast majority of employers want someone with a degree. Maybe they think it shows that the person is able to work hard, or just that they are fairly intelliegent. Whatever it is though, unfortunately a good degree, despite not actually teaching you a lot of relevant stuff, is necessary to get entry into a lot of jobs.ETA: When I say "vast majority of employers", I'm referring to larger corporations rather than trade employers like builders etc where a degree is useless obviously.

Todd_is_God Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 The US military still uses systems which use floppy disks. Part of the launch sequence for Minuteman missiles uses 8 inch floppies. The reason for not updating them is because they are more secure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Found a box of old 1.44MB floppy disks in a box in the loft. Then it dawned on me that a single picture from my digital camera on it's highest setting wouldn't fit on there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a similar feeling when I was given a free promotional pen stick with 1Gb, more memory than my family's PC in the early 2000's. Oh how I miss the days of my brothers trying to free up 100Mb for Carmageddon by deleting the contents of that useless 'Windows 98' folder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 You are better storing those kind of photos on a portable hard drive and burying it in your garden.

Christ, imagine the sheer panic in the department if they decided to investigate his search history? KK is either untouchable or would have a team of people to look into his history and end up footing the bill for a lot of therapy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
