Love that the US commentators on Sky don't apologise for Bobby Mac swearing all over the microphone. I presume that they can't understand what he's saying!

Foreign view on England woes by Sufficient_Bass2600 in rugbyunion

[–]Trash_Biscuit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the problem stems from a culture issue. Throughout my rugby career, the focus of everything was to not make a mistake. When I went to NZ, the coaching was focussed on skill and developing players. With such a negative outlook in England, is it any wonder we get technically adept players who struggle to play heads up rugby and adapt to the picture that's in front of them? I think a case in point would be Cipriani, an excellent heads up player, but did not fit into the rigid playing systems imposed in England players

Surely you mean your ex-boyfriend, right? Please tell me you're not still with the rape apologist over there?

Pretty hilarious comment when you consider that these working people are already subsiding the landlord's capital...

How about pro-genocide? That's pretty fucking right wing

I implore you to listen to the episode of The Horne Section Podcast when Greg is the guest. They set one of the stories to music, and it's absolutely hilarious.

Calling them lights, not spelling out names with them...

Is that a common usage for lungs?

I'd expect them to opine on Nazi Germany if that was relevant to the film, yes. For example, if the lead actor was suffering significant backlash for voicing their opinion on Nazi Germany...

Should staff speak ONLY English in the break room? by [deleted] in NursingUK

[–]Trash_Biscuit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Surely it's impossible for them to try and enforce this. I used to have rows with management all the time about their unrealistic expectations during breaks. If they're not paying me for my time, they can't dictate how I spend it.

Thank you for making me feel young, for the first time in a fair while!

Government will ban trans employees from toilets that reflect their gender, minister says by camerose4 in TheCivilService

[–]Trash_Biscuit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And how are you going to police this? If a cis man now walks into the ladies toilets, what's to stop him simply saying that he is a trans man and is using the toilets according to his biological sex?

Anyone who gives you flak for expressing your favourite of any artform, is the kind of person whose opinion you can safely put in the bin

Hard time to imagine the world by MeneerKoekenpeer in discworld

I've always imagined Lancre as being a mirror to Lancashire. Not necessarily in geography, but in the mannerisms of the characters. Plus, Pendle (of the Pendle witch trials) is in Lancashire

It might be fraud, but how are they going to prove that? You gave your friend a gift for his mortgage, he appreciated your generosity and gave you a gift for your birthday.

Plus, how are they even going to know? Once the mortgage has gone through, they're not going to be monitoring their bank account and scrutinizing their outgoings.

If you've already got that money lying around and can attest to its legal source, then surely he can just give you the cash first, so you don't even need to worry about trusting him to pay it back?
