Is it anyone with no further education than high school or are we talking a certian brand of person here? Someone who's done ok financially by ripping off as many people as they can, interspersed with having to crawl to speccy faced bank managers for loans, resulting in a massive chip on their shoulder.

Thistle_do_nicely Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Thread reminded me of the Saxondale bit; "I graduated from the University of Life, the School of Hard Knocks, and, er, Lancaster Polytechnic with an HND in Mechanical Engineering" I do vividly remember someone showing me a Facebook profile of a charming young lady who graduated from the University of Life as per her Facebook. Her religious views on said social media platform were listed as"fuk the pope". A lot of unabashed University of Life types do seem to think that a few years running, say, an ice cream van somehow would give them the skillset to have an effective political career. I don't mean just on a local level, I'm talking as a full on constituency MP. Pretty sure it'd go about as well as John Smeaton's ill-fated political career in most cases, tbh edit: ooh! Got one - they're the type that will usually share viral Facebook pictures without stopping to apply any sort of basic reasoning or fact-checking to whether whatever shite they're posting has any basis in reality. You know the type of thing: "THIS WAR VETERAN HAS SPENT 8 YEARS WAITING FOR A HOUSE, BUT A BROWN FAMILY GOT ONE AFTER WAITING JUST 3 MONTHS BY BEING FAST-TRACKED.

Romeo Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Thinks actual university (or any kind of formal education/qualifications) is a lot of shite and takes great pleasure in telling people this mainly to cover for the fact they failed miserably and have in general fucked up their life. eta Supports Aberdeen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest_Man#1 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Make blanket comments about genuine students all being lazy, and not getting out of bed until 2pm. Drive a taxi.

Hammer Jag Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 They tend to use every conversation as an excuse to brag about their income or how well they’re doing. Less than subtle mentions of how flash their car is, how big their house is, how much they’re looking forward to their holiday in Florida etc Fond of using the phrase “Well I left school with no qualifications and look at me!” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
