  1. Are you the reincarnation of a WW1 General? It would explain a lot...
  2. Did you read the article?
  3. No further comment required, from me or from anyone else. Here's the view from the front line: https://www.theguardian.com/books/2021/feb/06/ive-been-called-satan-dr-rachel-clarke-on-facing-abuse-in-the-covid-crisis
  4. Nice to see (nearly) all the bots using proper gammon grammar...
  5. Wrong thread
  6. That IS the simplistic version, don't let me get started, you'll never get me off that soapbox! [emoji1787][emoji23][emoji1787]
  7. I don't care about the figures, it's the principle of the thing that sticks in my throat. If you honestly can't see that he's pandering to the electorate who gave him Brexit with empty rhetoric and soundbites to maintain his voter base and that he doesn't give two f**ks about either them or the man who tried to do a good thing then nothing I say will remove those blinkers. BoJos is just one of the people I'm happy to continue to slur, along with 99.999% of all politicians in all parties and that's something we should all remember. I prefer to judge governments & politicians by their promises, actions and outcomes and BoJos and his ilk are behaving in precisely the manner I expect of them. So no surprise there, then. And the current shenanigans within the SNP is another good example of politicians being politicians.
  8. Because of the points that are being made about the political use of the old fella by people in the other thread, most of which I agree with. Simplistically (I know my audience [emoji846]), a good lot of what's going on to celebrate what the gentleman on the left achieved is a distraction to deflect from what the bawbag on the right is doing.
  9. I agree that the topic on Captain Tom isn't the place so I'll put this in here - this sums up perfectly the reason people are getting upset about how a centenarian who tried to a good thing is being treated by the Tories.
  10. They would've been just where the roads on the left are, you can see the same William Street flats.
  11. Johnny Clash?
  12. I'm surprised, given you must get up to that smell every day I thought you'd have been inured to it by now. "Who can I bully today? Oh, I'll call them snowflakes, that'll rattle them!" Wishful thinking of the highest order... [emoji23][emoji1787][emoji23]
  13. Yet you feel the need to comment? Beware of snowflakes, they'll f**k you up if you're not careful. 'Jim Dale, senior meteorologist at British Weather Services, says he can see why it was chosen. “On their own, snowflakes are lightweight. Whichever way the wind blows, they will just be taken with it. Collectively, though, it’s a different story. A lot of snowflakes together can make for a blizzard, or they can make for a very big dump of snow. In which case, people will start to look up.”' Speaking as a c100kg fat bastard snowflake, don' t forget that the word 'lightweight' is a metaphor in this instance.
  14. I don't give a f**k what you think of me, life's too short and you're way too unimportant. At the risk of taking myself too seriously (again), you really are a sad, strange little man and you have my pity. Farewell.
  15. Spoken like someone trying to bully someone, imo.
  16. That's a fantastic wee video, everyone of us should see it.
  17. I think he might well have written this one with you in mind, oaky O wad some Pow'r the giftie gie us To see oursels as ithers see us! It wad frae mony a blunder free us, An' foolish notion: What airs in dress an' gait wad lea'e us, An' ev'n devotion!
  18. Go on then, show me proof that I'm a boring cnut. That's how it works, aye?
  19. You going to answer my question shull or do you want me to start a new thread?
  20. In a weird coincidence, I came out of Gleddoch Butchers, put the stuff in the car, decided to have a fag and a wee look in here while hanging about, and this was the first post I saw while standing right next to the very same building. It's an omen, I tells ya. No idea what it's presaging but I know an omen when it slaps me in the face like that... [emoji846]
  21. Do you really get a kick out of posting shite when folk have told you that they have lost members of their family and friends from this?
  22. I slept right through it, first I knew of it was looking out the (first floor) window and seeing a hut lying in the middle of the road. Each side was still attached to the roof but splayed out on each side as if a giant had played it on the road then pressed his (or her or their) foot down on the roof.
  23. Illuminate us all, oh great one - in what way am I taking myself too seriously? By quoting Buzz Lightyear? Really? Have a think about it...if you can ever (con)descend any lower than you've already achieved, of course. But we all need goals in these difficult times. [emoji23][emoji1787][emoji23]
