In fairness, at my school the boards were green, so it just would've sounded weird to call them blackboards. Usually, just calling it "the board" was good enough: I mean, what other board were we going to write on? The Board of Governors?

Green boards? Green boards?! Ridiculously limiting, blackboards allow the use of a multitude of chalk colours as do white boards. PC gone mad!

I take your point on "the board" though although its giving me flashbacks of having to stand at the front of the class staring at said board like a naughty retard. Good times!

This is the first time I've heard anyone claim personal experience of shit like this. It's usually Daily Mail-minded buffoons talking as idf the whole world is like that.

 

I hope you told any fuckwits who tried to stop the correct use of adjectives to fuck right off, or they'd get a black eye.

Blackboard became chalkboard at some point didn't it? I do a lot of building design in the education sector and all our specs were changed from black to chalk somewhere in the 2000's. Dunno if whiteboard did. I suppose the idea is you don't use colour as an adjective anymore, fuck off thought police:lol:

With yesterdays downgrade in UK credit rating is it likely that interest rates will go up? My gut reaction is yes but I have no idea what I'm talking about ha

I had a bit of a break the past week ,the Chelsea game last Sunday was my last one till today. So withdrew everything and started afresh this afternoon with the North London derby and the Paddy Power Gold cup. Just waiting for them to load my free bets from these and on we go again. Up just under 400 after 4 weeks.

Nice one! I've just paid all my original stakes from betfair back into my main account, hopefully it should make it a bit easier to follow from now on - whatever cash i've got in the bookie accounts is all free, free I tell you!

ps I've stuck purely to the footy bets, no casinos or free spins or whatever, my betting knowledge is zero so im doing it purely to make cash, theres no entertainment value at all. With my hunger for vice I need a gambling addiction like a hole in the head haha

I would like to apologise for my last sentence there mike.

 

It sounds like i have the problem with you or your system - which isn't the case at all, i don't doubt anything which you say or do - and you always appear to be available to help with any questions we have.

 

My problem is with the bookies. Anything they can do to screw you over they will, and having to chase them to get something which is rightfully yours, seeing as you are taking them up on their own offer, just doesn't seem right.

I started it this week and after 2 days was thinking "what the fuck have I done here?". Once all the free bets got credited and the first couple came in I changed my mind, im £46 up at the moment but have got lucky in a sense - every bet i've made has paid out from betfair so its been really easy to keep up with income/outcome, im sure some people have got money spread out all over the show which would be a pain in the arse to calculate. Ive still got loads of bookies to tan so if I carry on like this the missus' christmas presents are free (as well as the huge pile of vinyl I bought last weekend) :yes:

Decided to have a do of this last night, set the Bonus Bagging & betfair accounts up and deposited £75 sheets in, its asked me for age verification so I've scanned my driving licence and emailed it over - is this normal? If so any ideas how long it takes? Not much of a gambler but im sat on a few quid ive saved for the missus birthday so thought it would be rude not to do something irresponsible with it!

Biggest problem I had with Bane's voice was that it never really looked like Tom Hardy was uttering the lines. It sounded too over produced in post production. I had no problem with how it sounded, it just never felt like Bane was actually speaking.

Exactly my thoughts, the only time it really felt as if hardy was talking was the speech outside the prison. Sounded like kenneth williams with a darth vader helmet on at times. Menacing enough in stature though, the opening scene was fantastic!

My real problem with the film (and most films now to be fair) is after being spoilt by some excellent tv series of late there isnt enough time to cover everything with to the level of detail you'd like. The five month occupation of gotham seemed relatively trivial in screentime terms, I would have liked a LOT more of this, something along the lines of the battlestar galactica new caprica storyline. I maintain the dark knight returns should have been two films kill bill style, this could have been 3. Its definitely a decent stab at it though, shame Nolan is done with the character.

I was hoping the robin guy was going to turn out to be azrael. Fucking Robin :wallbutt:

I fucking hate them. I can only assume our long lost ancestors were enslaved by spider people and the genetic memory has been passed onto us. It really is the only plausible explanation.

Got a mob of gents coming round for this tonight, cant wait for FACE THE PAIN!!!

Yeah didn't think of that but it should work. I'll do that tonight just incase.

 

Cheers.

ESPN seem to be aware of this, they usually stick a 20 min programme on afterwards so your not stuck recording 3 hours of basketball just to see the last round of the main event.

The last TUF was murder, with the fights being live it took 3 or 4 weeks for them to realise the broadcast needed to be a bit longer!

They've both weighed in, silva looks feisty as fuck as well. CANNOT WAIT

If the person is not present and im unaware of their nationality then i would simply say 'Asian.'

I see where your coming from but I've used this in the past and the follow up question was "paki or chink?" so it backfired somewhat. All joking aside I was pulled up on the use of oriental recently so what the fuck do I know.

Is voting for the BNP racist, or are they a political party with legal standing? Fine lines. I'd never vote for them myself, but I'd defend someone's right to.

This is a viewpoint I've had since being a teenage gobshite know it all (not suggesting your one!) but in recent years (tying in with the constant self-examination mentioned by someone else) I cant help but think if its a bit...well...irresponsible? By that I mean the type of people who hold such views (in my experience) would never vote for someone like the BNP. And the type of people who would vote for the BNP (again in my experience) dont tend to be democracy loving, free thought promoting people who might share the above view. So in effect while we all pat ourselves on the back in the name of free speech like some degree level, right on sociology students, evil cunts are manipulating thick cunts as an alleged legitimate party. Which we know deep down their not. Did people defend the nazi's right to be a legitimate party? If they did that turned out a right balls up innit?!?!?!

Not sure where im going with this yet, a couple more years of self examination are required :lol:

Ps probably doesn't belong on the FF

A band whose cultural impact was greater than their musical impact.

 

The "Holidays in the Sun" riff rips off the Jam's from "In the City".

 

But I still get tingles listening to the "Pretty vacant" intro. "Did you no wrong" is a brilliant B side, "Submission" and "Bodies" forgotten gems.

The Jam plus rip off makes me think Taxman and Snap!

I find the word sharting/sharted hilarious.

I ventured into this thread to mention this one, only heard it on the weekend after an unfortunate accident during a round of golf

On the cusp of the millenium, being a token anti fashion/establishment zealot, I used to walk around in 18 hole army boots, a grey galabia (a mate had just been to egypt and brought it back), full beard & long hair combo and a camouflage army engineers jacket. Imagine my dismay when that cunt bin laden literally stole my entire look. This is 100% true, my mates had a field day with it, mobile phone video was in its infancy so they used to film me without my knowledge, the grainy footage used to look like the vids OBL filmed in a cave in afganistan.

How the mighty have fallen though, ive currently got black sambas, jeans and a fuckin polo shirt on. Where did it all go wrong? :|

Does anyone have a decent site that links all the MMA events, like a calendar / fixture list?

List of UFC events - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As always Wikipedia is your friend

john fash is religious and nigerian so you need to remember that when you judge him for his views

 

some people in the world have different thoughts on things, its allowed

I thought he played for england? I nearly put jamaica then, mixing him up with robbie earle - what does that say about me! I think I would have failed the local goverment inherent rascist test anyway :wow:

Yes it was. If I remember rightly, they spent a long while agonising over it, before settling on some weasel words in their constitution which they claim make it legal, but which (I think) are still being challenged by the Equality & Human Rights Commission.

 

So, they're barely legal (and not in a good way) and definitely not legitimate, as they trade in lies, smears, scaremongering and inciting hatred and division to a far greater extent than any of the (admittedly cuntish) other parties.

 

If some shitty pub loses a licence because they decided to collaborate with Fascists, I won't be shedding too many tears.

Didnt they try to dress it up with some definition of indigenous British people and tracing their lineage back to some arbitrary date?

Monkey Alan - great tagging!

Whoever did it answer me this - is monkey alan a homage to monkey harris from fools and horses? I've always thought this, never met anyone sad enough to offer an opinion either way haha

Bit of a damp squid of a card I thought.

 

Bisping/Sonnen was a decent fight and Sonnen probably edged it due to the last round but can't believe one judge had it 30-27, shocking. Gotta admit Sonnen is pure entertainment, the mad cunt.

 

Rashid won't stand a chance versus Jonny Bones.

 

I quite liked the FOX format with having guests an doing in depth analysis but they need to incorporate the UFC opening theme which it lacked.

Agreed, just been talking about this with my mate. The problem the UFC has with this Fox stuff is the fights need to be important enough to generate some kind of buzz around the event (i.e. title shots on the line etc.) which then leads you into the realm of non-risk, sensible fights ending in decisions which probably tend to turn off the target demographic they had in mind for the fox events. Double edged sword and all that. Still the sonnen/bisping fight ended up with the perfect result for me, sonnen gets to fight silva again and bisping probably gained enough credibility with the loss to get a title shot at a later date.

Agree with the 30-27 as well, shocking. Oh and agree on rashad vs bones too. In fact, fuck it, I agree with everything :yes:

Pretty pathetic really. They're a legal and legitimate party whether people like it or not.

My younger, vociferously pro-free speech self would have agreed with this. My cynical, world weary, slightly older self thinks fuck em all the poisonous bastards.

This could be due to the bitter fact it takes two days to get over a hangover since I hit 30 though. And Nick Griffins face is cunty.

Not being in that area, I'd have never known that if you hadn't mentioned it. Interesting though and surprising that more haven't at least considered it as a possibility.

Years back when wigan athletic were in the second division I got a freebie when they played city in the league cup, there was a bit of bluster round the back of the stadium after the game, ive never seen so much eyebrow on display since, simian bastards :monkeywink:

Obviously if the guy was aiming it at evra he's a prick, ban him. As long as its proven rather than probable of course

Count on your fingers: if it's 6, you're a Wool.

Good work sir!
