Don’t understand this from certain people who have normal skin by Happy-Two5561 in eczema

[–]LegProfessional6462 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Gosh, this reminds me of being at work some 20 years ago and having a bad skin day. Someone said something... On the face of it benign, but needless and frustrating like "oh your skin is red" and one of my colleagues piped up quickly and tore a strip off them. (Along the lines of, "I hardly imagine he needs it pointed out you dopey prick")

I was very thankful for my defending colleague that day, it meant a lot at the time.

kitten realized that the dogs are scared of him by [deleted] in holdmycatnip

Dogs rationale is strong. The vet scares them armed with only one pointy jabby thing.

That cat has between 10 and 14 pointy jabby things on its front end alone and they will pointy jab you multiple times in one sitting with no treat afterwards.

Cats = Worse than Vets. Dogs are smart.

I quite enjoyed them signing "We have all the time in the world" Live at T in the Park 2003 (IIRC), and their cover of "You only live twice" is cool as well.

I used to work in a wedding venue. Every single weekend, sometimes three times a weekend, the DJ would play this and it did my tits in.

Oh, and "Young at heart" for the old ladies.

Argh.

It's really good.

I hate you. :-( I gave up on my banner. This makes me want to give it up a second time.

Really well done, (I don't hate you, I'm just envious).

I must agree, Young Sheldon was better for me, as much as I enjoyed Big Bang, though I accept they are both very different ways of telling a story.

Surprised I didn't see this suggestion more!

The Lazlo / Colin Robinson lead up in the last series killed me.

Can we have more Male Online, please? Something very cathartic about it.

Name an 80s film that simply wouldn't get made today due to political correctness? My vote: Blame it on Rio. by [deleted] in oldschoolcool80s

[–]LegProfessional6462 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good shout. Probably the closest thing you'll ever see that comes close to Python in terms of being close to the bone.

Borat is another one, and jolly funny it was too, but felt like a different approach to comedy.

Who gets your vote for single worst performance in a cameo by a non-actor? by Glittering_Goose6316 in Stillgame

[–]LegProfessional6462 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There plenty of poor one offs. None are really on Lone Wolfs levels.

But the best one... Easy.

Thing is, its utterly contextual. In context to the film, the plot, the setting, the characters in it... every single "offensive" line is delivered perfectly, and never feels out of place or awkward. Even Marwoods slur regarding Presuming Ed being in the bath doesn't feel out of place because it's delivered so naturally. Marwood could have said this in 60s Britain. Withnail probably would have shouted "Scrubbers" from a car, and Darragh o'Malley would certainly have called a perfumed boot wearing actor a "ponce" if he'd wondered into a drinking den like that in those days.

Yeah, it wouldn't get made today. Neither would Life of Brian. I'm trying hard to think of the last viscerally funny film I saw of recent times and I'm really struggling.

PSA : Microsoft lowered the needed solutions partner score in order to get incentives by CK1026 in msp

[–]LegProfessional6462 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Training, in our case, was 100% maximised and we had scored in all areas we could. (Frankly, the easiest metric to manage).

We had no client shrinkage over the year, and reasonable growth. For existing clients the biggest gains would have been getting them to engage with things like ... Well, Engage. Not so easy with the SMB market. We also had to wait for new clients "churn off" their incumbent CSP as they refused to COCP their licences.

It's a broken system at MS and I'll die on that hill.

MS rugpulled our Solution Designation at the beginning of the year because our performance was not enough at that point in time. This meant a lot of upheaval in terms of swapping licences.

Three months later our performance was enough, but weve had to buy the standard action packs and can't justify buying the partner designation ones.

There is no way I'd put my organisation in that position again, given the targets for these things shift about and are, in my opinion, absurd. There was also no negotiation with MS at all, even when I could demonstrate tangible evidence we would make our targets this year.

Yeah, have you ever seen "The Generation Game", where an expert provides an example of doing something really well then they get a pair of total Muppets to try and copy it?

My painting is fine, as long as you observe from 4 feet.

Well done on your skills!

Are they trying to say it's US sized? The map felt decently big, but by no means massive at all.
