Swarley Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I put a pile of snail pellets down a wee hole at my front gate the other day. Scenes of carnage the next morning with half dead slugs and snails everywhere.Am not 100% sure but this definitely sounds like a euphemism for something? Probably some sort of behaviour they discuss on that Tinder thread? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1875 Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Can't help but get annoyed whenever I see people wearing baseball caps and they've left the black & gold sticker on the bill of the cap, looks like a desperate attempt to convince everyone they didn't steal said hat. Especially annoys me if it's one of those flat billed baseball caps 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I started typing the snail post before going to bed, then finished it this morning but the thread has since moved on. I wouldn't be surprised though if King Kebab starts a "snail" thread in the NSFW forum a la the Octopus thread. Ding Dong! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swarley Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I remember when read receipt and fucking delivery receipt were set to On as standard at one of my old offices (circa late 90s). What a joyous day that was when they were switched off by Admin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) The wife's started getting emails from her family in the US about how Scotland will become some kind of racist backwater without the rest of the UK to keep us in check. The impression I get is that they're trying to get her to move away before independence hits. Absolutely fucking livid right now. Edit: Apparently Jews living in Scotland are in fear of their lives right now due to support for Palestinian civilians during the recent conflict in Israel. Kristalnacht mk. II set to kick in on September 19th.

scottsdad Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 My inlaws were up yesterday and they have already voted No by postal ballot. And I can tell you, they are terrified of Scottish independence. Absolutely terrified. The papers and Project fear have worked on them. They were asking questions like "What will you do when the food runs out?"Well done Blair MacDougall. If you went in to this campaign to scare old folk, grand job. Knob.The Better Together campaign has to go down in history as one of the worst campaigns ever run. Relentlessly negative from the start, offering nothing positive to say about the union, blunder after blunder and of course the fact they're 20 years behind in how to campaign. They believe in the power of the newspapers and the BBC, but even with almost all the mainstream media behind it the polls are saying its 50/50.The head of this campaign, Mr MacDougall, has run a campaign before. In 2010, David Miliband's Labour leadership bid. You know, the one where he was a shoo-in but somehow threw it away at the very end.I dislike Better Together. I hate their attitude, their arrogance, their goal of fearmongering. But having seen my in-laws yesterday I reached a new loathing. Having activists tell pensioners that their pensions will be stopped on September 19th, for instance. Or Gordon Brown telling people on the organ waiting lists that they'll be cut off from English blood and organ donations (lies! F*****g lies!!) simply to terrify them. These things all fact checked can be refuted, but for many vulnerable people the fear sticks. And this bugs me immensely. I know, I know, plenty of Better Together Are Shitebags threads for this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I voted by last week postal vote too. I wouldn't go as far as saying I'm shitting myself if Scotland gets independence but as a business owner and home owner with a mortgage I do have concerns over using someone else's currency and how that will affect our economy. I know that the World won't end and I certainly won't be proclaiming that I'll immediately move to England but by the same account, having the qualifications skills and experience that are in short supply both side of the Border, I have that option. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widge Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 On the topic of emails from above, I send emails to colleagues 10 feet away FFS!! Anyway that's not my PTTGOYN, no that would be the fact that twice today, I've send an email that was meant to have an attachment included and forgot the said attachment, making me look very foolish.
