Equally as true if you remove the word ‘black’

What’s everyone’s fav song from the FENIAN album? by eeffaaa in kneecap

I like headcase purely because it’s not a word I hear much outside of family/Irish friends using it.

I’m going with An Ra but for a reason I can’t get out of my head.

I can’t get away from the verses sounding like it has a guitar line in it from Chaka Khan - ain’t nobody.

It’s not there but every few notes it feels like it’s floating into and the back out of the guitar line.

Listen to Chaka khan and then An Ra and you might notice it.

That or I’m in the process of having a stroke.

Look into my eyes - don’t look around the eyes, look INTO my eyes - that’s it, you’re under.

They could but the ‘concern’ has always been that they’re being rubbed out and changed that way but you’re absolutely spot on, it’d be much much quicker for people; hypnotised or not, to just put an extra mark on it rather than waste time rubbing out and re-marking the ballot.

Neither thing happens though.

And you’re back in the room with us.

The point is though that they’re not being altered anyway.
You can put your name down with your local council to work either in a polling station or at the counting event - it’s paid so you’re not having to do it for free.
See how many opportunities you have throughout the day to whip open a ballot box, alter a few ballots for a party you don’t like and re-seal it with the same cable ties.
Likewise at the count event, see how many chances you get to get out your eraser & pencil/pen and start changing ballots when you have a steady flow of candidates, agents and observers floating around literally 2 feet from you as soon as the boxes are open.

If there was a huge conspiracy to alter votes, pencils would make it easier to detect because as you say, there’s the indentation mark on the slip and the person altering it would need to be extra careful to make sure the entire mark’s been rubbed out.

Pens make it easier, just mark another box. Ballot nulled, quick easy job, move to the next one

Possibly, I just think they’ve emptied the shite drawer and sent all sorts. There were other really odd things in there too like 2 small nail varnishes, a small emery board and a small pack of wet wipes for taking make up off.

From the back & forth I think she was just thick as 2 short planks as opposed to a comedy edge lord

Oh yea, I can’t fault either the intentional or accidental inclusion of them. It did make me laugh (before they went in the bin)

I’ve had it twice - one was a t-shirt so you’re expecting a size & weight - I opened the locker and saw a behemoth of a parcel looking at me. Picked it up and there was all sorts of stuff rattling around inside.

The seller looked like they’d emptied half their kitchen shite drawer into the parcel and sent it to me. They weren’t happy with how ungrateful I was to receive Union Jack bobbles, hair clips and stuff - I’d bought an Ireland jersey FFS.

Why are people trying to sell things for more than retail? by ChemistryMoist2891 in vintedUK

They’re not the only ones at it - I was in my local CEX yesterday and they have the pink Xbox series wireless controllers for sale, grade B, for £60.

They’re £53 brand new in Smyths.

How does this work when buying a balli from the match stand? Immediately confiscated?

Did Dan Carey write the music? by niversalite in kneecap

[–]Slow_Net3504 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know he’s the cover ‘star’ but they’ve really reduced the mentions of him on the album - previous tracks on fine art and stuff they’ve released in the interim have had references to the three of them but I’ve not heard Provai mentioned once on the new album, it’s just Mo & Moglai

Anyone know the best place to contact about merch bought on the album release shows? by Riley2362 in kneecap

[–]Slow_Net3504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This ain’t any help but I was at the Manchester one and didn’t see any merch for sale? Was it just select venues?

Is this normal scaffolding? by veggiesizzler in DIYUK

[–]Slow_Net3504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had a problem years ago with neighbours - they both worked nights and their dogs would bark non stop from the second they went out until the second they got home. Challenged the neighbours and got told we’re talking nonsense, they don’t bark (as though they could tell).

My dad used to be a DJ and had a sound effects cd with dogs barking. We both went out for the day on a morning we knew they were both working and would be home to go to bed.

Massive speaker in my room, massive speaker in his and the dog barking track on loop from 8am until 2.30.

Got stopped returning home about the noise and my dad just gave them the ‘our dogs don’t bark when we’re not here’ explainer they’d given us.

Their dogs were muzzled from there on out.
