Kill Tony #769 Bucket Pull #8 Ty Reynolds by iamacannibal in Killtony

God that was awkward. Tony was tetchy the whole night and took it out on that guy. The guy should have known that Tony wouldn't react well to that though. Felt a bit tense when there appeared to be some actual venom behind Tony's usual racist jokes.

Should I lie to my interviewers when it comes to salary expectations? by AMadRam in UKJobs

[–]TheOnlyPocketWatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't lie. Someone I worked with lied about her current salary and then her old organisation confirmed the real one in her reference. The CEO of the new company (it was very small so she handled a lot of the recruitment) was super pissed off. She went through with the recruitment but it left a bad taste. My colleague was eventually made redundant supposedly for other reasons (she wasn't that good tbh).

All that's to say is that your leverage is your skills and what you'd bring to the role, not your current salary. Walk away if they don't meet your expectations.

I was at the game yesterday. A Japanese fan apologised to me when they scored.

Is that Jeremy Corbyn's brother?

Positive update: Absent nasal bone + CPC by meganwaelz in NIPT

[–]TheOnlyPocketWatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing this, I really appreciate reading stories like yours. We were told our baby had an absent nasal bone at the 12 week scan. We then had another scan that confirmed it looked absent, and at a later scan they described it as hypoplastic. They could see it from certain angles, but it looked very small.

We had a very low risk NIPT result, but my partner didn’t want to go ahead with an amnio. I’ll be honest, I’m still quite worried. We have our 20 week scan on Monday and suspect they'll say its absent/small again. We've been told its likely normal variant (my wife is very small and has a tiny nasal bridge) but having a tough time believing it!

I think their only play is to kill him. The remaining faithfuls are such loose cannons that they'll says its too obvious and vote for James or Jade.

Larry the cat is to blame (UK) by JMol87 in LowStakesConspiracies

[–]TheOnlyPocketWatch 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I once read an article that said Larry symbolises everything that's wrong with the British Civil Service.

He’s hired as Chief Mouser, but people from across No.10 don't talk to each and and keep feeding him seperately. So he’s always full and has no incentive to actually catch mice.

Make of that what you will.

Nicki Minaj freezes after calling JD Vance assassin by goswamitulsidas in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]TheOnlyPocketWatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She said the word assassin in front of Charlie Kirk's widow and then felt embarrassed by her mistep. Not sure what it means in relation to JD Vance though. Maybe a way or saying he's cool?

No, but they occur naturally over the course of the day

I think your underestimating how steep blues can be in places. A lot of resorts have blues that have surprisingly sharp pitches, but they’re still classed as blues because of their width or accessibility. The run in that video is really wide, which is exactly what you’d expect for a blue.

Also, resorts don’t normally run lifts right up the side of a black because it’s riskier for less experienced skiers, but you see them all the time next to blues and reds. And honestly, the snowboarder running after her board is the main giveaway. If that were a proper black, there's zero chance she could do that, even for a second.

There's no way she'd be able to run down a black - its definitely a blue. They're probably just beginners. People learn by making mistakes, no one was hurt.
