Getting scammed is maybe a bit dubious for being a CCOM, but the guy who thought he was getting a PS5 for 240 quid off an Ebay site is undoubtedly a moron. Holy f**k £240 Playstation 5 box was it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The proverb is “ great minds think alike but fools seldom diiffer” it’s entire meaning is lost with these c***s ! Ie don’t assume you’re correct just because someone agrees with you Saw an example of this on FB yesterday where somebody was asking where a photo was taken and there were lots of people singing their own praises about an answer one gave. "Yes!! That's what I thought!", "Totally, check us, great minds " etc etc as they all gave each other likes. Naturally, I then wade in the correct answer and get all manner of shite until I post up the Streetview of the place in typical Hedgecutter fashion. Funnily enough, all goes quiet (as a few comments suddenly disappear). And after that? Well, the game was mine.

effeffsee_the2nd Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 The c***s who seethe when a manager loses his job and it turns out the club have to pay out the remainder of his legally binding contract.“ if ah wisny daein ma joab ad get sacked wi nae money”No darren you wouldn’t, hardly anyone does, besides a managers job is to manage/ coach the team. The fact that the results are poorer than expected doesnt mean he isn’t doing so. If a club wanted to add performance related termination clauses in the contract then they most likely wouldn’t get anyone decent to sign 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Just seen on this morning, folk phoning up to get advice from an astrologer. This guy is actually on tv giving out life advice including telling one lassie who wants to set up her own business not to do it until 2022. What the actual f**k!? Everyone involved, morons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wholeheartedly agree. Every single person involved is a moron. There is then the question of whether or not ITV should be enabling such fraud and stupidity 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Market forces m80Aye. There can be few things more depressing than watching the content of daytime TV whilst keeping in mind the premise that it is being steered by actual demand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky Nosejob Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Believing you share character traits with people born at the same time of year as you is moronic. No less moronic is believing you share character traits with people born on the same side of an imaginary, arbitrary line on an island as you. Consider this advert below. If Susan Calman had started with “We Capricorns...” rather than “We Scots...” would it be less believable? If it had been Rhod Gilbert in the advert and he had started with “We Welsh...” , do you think Welsh people watching would have thought “What he’s describing sounds more like the Scots than us”? So what makes patriotism more acceptable than belief in star signs? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I'm a huge believer in patriotism but I think suggesting that Scots have some common cultural traits is 100x more valid than an entirely fictional enterprise in star signs. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what makes patriotism more acceptable than belief in star signs?There’s a public sphere that Scots by and large participate in and are exposed to semi-exclusively on account of geography that Capricorns do not. Ofc making cast iron judgments about specific nationalities is bad but I think you can point to specific cultural signifiers that a nation might exhibit more than others.Off topic but does anyone want to see my calliper collection? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky Nosejob Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 (edited) Playing devil’s advocate here, but would it not also be valid to suggest the early life experience of someone born in springtime would be very different to those born in autumn? The proportion of your early months spent indoors/outdoors could affect your personality in later life and would be aligned with those born at the same time of year as you. Were Berwick upon Tweed still a part of Scotland, would children born there grow up to have different personalities and values than they currently do?
