BFTD Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 3 minutes ago, Salt n Vinegar said: Can't say there's much wrong with that, given that according to the Church of Scotland website "All Scottish schools (Catholic and non-denominational) are required to provide Religious Observance events, now also known as Time for Reflection. Chaplains and Schools fulfilling the Religious Observance requirement should complete an RO record for each event that can be kept for Inspection." What a fkkn stupid country. Yeah, but I'll bet most of them are talking about Jesus or some other radical lefty like Corbyn, or Hitler. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I did my Spanish night class at the local RC high school there was a big picture of the Pope looking at you creepily as you went in I should clarify that I'm not saying all popes look creepy but even his most devout followers would have to admit that the one before this one looked like the evil emperor from star wars. The current one looks more like Jim and Tommy Mclean's long lost brother 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to work with a boy who made his wife and kids stand up and salute the queen at Xmas when she did her speech. He was from down south and ex forces to the surprise of absolutely no one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I promise that I will do my best, to do my duty to God and to the Queen, to help other people, and to keep the Cub Scout Law; a Cub Scout always does his best, thinks of others before himself, and does a good turn every day" Every week for years, while saluting the Butcher's Apron. Been 35 years and I still remember it word for word. Definitely not indoctrination, though. Thankfully I didn't have it buggered into me, although I understand that's not uncommon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use to have that exact joystick, incidentally - pretty decent, as I recall. Instant crash if you so much as breathed on the Kempston interface sticking out the back, though. Can't imagine that anyone actually managed to rub one out to Sam Fox Strip Poker or Leisure Suit Larry, but anything's possible. Hot uncensored NSFW pics below for those too young to remember.

Pretty much any air traffic control system could be fucked by an error by an airline. A plane flying into the tower for instance. A pretty big error, but still an error. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just realised that's not the four-colour CGA original. She was probably magenta in that one. Modern kids don't know they're born, with their 16-colour EGA displays and 3.5" floppies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
