General Discussion / Re: Things that made you sad today thread.
« on: December 07, 2017, 02:53:15 pm »You're lucky, here, just when it was starting to get nice and hot, we had some daft "weather event" where it rained for a couple of days almost without stopping and caused a "cold change" which basically dumped us back into winter.
Still hasn't warmed up properly. It rained again yesterday and it's cold as shit. Just when I was getting used to nice warm weather again, after I'd taken so long acclimatising to the cold of Winter.
Pfft, in Scotland the wettest month is smack bang in the middle of Summer.
It's also humid as shit for those three months.
Not that I live in Scotland anymore. Having sensible, overcast weather for 9 months of the year is too much to ask where I am now

It is 20o Fahrenheit where I am.
Today is also the first day this not-quite-Winter-actually that I wore a jacket, ‘cause I’m hard/stupid like that.

Non-British stuff isn’t generally fine in terms of impartiality.
Bizarre since, by law, they need to be impartial.

He didn’t soften on Mexico after a visit there. He schmoozed their leader and came back and said they were paying for the wall, then Mexican jefe said they didn’t talk about it. Which cements your other point about him saying anything to get what he wants, really.
Also, he has something of a hate-boner for the Muslims as well as Mexicans, to the point he was talking smack about the mother of a dead Muslim soldier not being allowed to talk when the father of same was criticizing him.
I mean the man is like fucking Teflon, the number of times the shit wouldn’t stick to him is unbelievable.

Only with a certain subset of people, mainly die-hard supporters of the “the other side will take our women and rape our jobs!” variety.

T’ be fair to Cameron, he did campaign for Remain (autocorrected to capitalized? A’ight) and the bookies were all thinking Remain would for almost the entire lead-up to the referendum, so when they lost he cashed in his get out of jail free card and fucked the fuck off.
Then everyone in the ensuing leadership contest dropped out because they realized what a poisoned chalice it was. Not sure if May was just the last to realize or she - despite having campaigned for Remain herself - genuinely thought she could lead the exit with some dignity intact.
Fair play to her I s’pose, she stuck around after botching a 20-point lead over six weeks after calling a snap election she didn’t really want, but then again the prominent Tories couldn’t really tell her she was shit ‘cause then it’d look like they were more interested in personal political gain instead of focusing on Brexit.
Politics would be funny if it didn’t have such a massive influence on everyone’s life.

It’s rather amazing how long it seems like there’s been no plan.
PPE: I mean it’s all well and good knowing the destination, but if you have neither the vehicle or knowledge of how to get there, you’re going to be all kinds of knackered by the time you arrive. Probably look a right tit, too.

General Discussion / Re: Things that made you go "WTF?" today o_O
« on: December 04, 2017, 10:01:40 am »You'd think, of the things you could lose, an ID would be the one that made it easiest for a government organisation to contact you.
Ah but you forget; if a task, no matter how trivial, isnt explicitly in the job description of a given department, they will not do it. This includes informing departments whose job it would be to perform this task. Tax dollars at work.
Can confirm. Filled out immigration documents, ticked box for immigration people to send information on to social security people to ease getting that.
3 months hence, got in touch with social security people to ask wtf, they say immigration people often "forget" to pass on information.

It’s not really a modern phenomena either, to be fair.
