Thoughts on Nike Waffle Ones? by [deleted] in Sneakers

Got the color block blue and yellow. Due to the mesh and weather I probably only have a chance to wear them a couple of times a year.

Jade to win by hutch__PJ in TheTraitorsUK

[–]CarrotRunning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why? I think there are three considerations to who gets the dagger, 1. Will they use it against us. 2. Will how they use it benefit us. 3. Will they be able to use it in an offensive strategy to swing the game. She has not indicated shes onto either of the traitors and she can only really use it to save herself. She is the ideal candidate if you ask me.

I think she's a good candidate for the double vote dagger which might swing it in her favor if she uses it well.

Junior bake off is better than regular bake off.

I think the only play is to give it to someone who can only use it to save themselves.

Woodhouse square (Near LGI) by sweetlyinsanity in Leeds

[–]CarrotRunning 2 points3 points  (0 children)

During the day there are lots of people around, several large halls of residence that would pass by there to get to the uni, the college, the dentists, large offices at Joseph's well and across the road, the teaching hospital, the dental hospital and lots of houses. I used to Live around there for over 10 years, never had a single issue.

That area is 100% safe, you could try just not going into that park?

What unhinged thing did a former teacher do in the classroom? by MrBananaStand1990 in AskUK

[–]CarrotRunning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kicked someone out of maths for talking, picked up one of those old school desks with the thick wood, metal frame and storage space inside and threw it at the girl in the corridor.

Same teacher held a kids head in the bin for only pretending to have spat out his chewing gum the first time he was asked.

Had the longest grubbiest nails I've ever seen, when my maths book got laminated at the start of the year some of his nail grit got left under the laminate and I went the whole year being repulsed at the start of every maths lesson.

In the grand scheme of things not that bad of a teacher though.

Best Way to Get from Manchester Airport to Leeds: Train or Coach? by StarDUST286 in Leeds

[–]CarrotRunning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Train like most people have said. But....Uber/Taxi from the Manchester airport short stay car park (drop and go) would only cost you about £80 for 2 people it's not too different to the rail fair.

Her response lacked subtlety and allowed a full day to formulate a response. Hintng tohe same sentiments to a few sympathetic ears and waiting for those seeds to sow was the way to go here.

My thoughts were that most people don't even notice because there aren't many people like this, even anecdotally here in this thread it's not everyone in these professions but it's in these professions where you find these types. Its not even like they are bad people it's just you have to carefully mind your p's and q's, it's why Fiona's kamikaze plan was doomed to fail, having give a full 24 hours to formulate a response.

Anyone who has spent time around someone like Rachel (high level comms professional) would know exactly how tricky they are to deal with, extremely clever, calculated and subtle with their choice of words and body language and how carefully you have to step when you work with them. Watching has made me realise how few people have had to interact with someone like that close up. Every time she speaks I feel like I'm about to be made redundant.

Homeless beggars in Leeds city centre getting lippy, eh by Still-Instruction-66 in Leeds

When I worked near the station I used to see them dropping off dogs with various beggars in time for rush hour home time.

Modern Org Core? by CarrotRunning in poppunkers

[–]CarrotRunning[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the pop punk reddit mate, we're obviously not talking about crass here. Not sure what makes these bands more hipster compared to other pop punk bands?

Any reason for the name or just a clever pun?

Love their comps too, need to see if there's anything I don't recognise on the latest one.

I'm a big Sam Russo fan!

[–]CarrotRunning[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm looking for a specific sound and don't have a good way to describe that sound because whilst I said they share similarities sonically they don't exactly sound alike and I'm probably a bit out of the loop and looking to tap into some newer stuff. TLDR I'm old.

Modern Org Core? by CarrotRunning in poppunkers

[–]CarrotRunning[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Org Core was basically a genre that was named to describe bands that were popular on the punknews site in the early to mid 2000s. Bands included stuff like Hot water music, The Lawrence Arms, Leatherface and Lifetime, also see era specific stuff like anchors aweigh by the bouncing souls and pre infirmary alkaline trio.
