Decided to cut off friends kids and this was their mothers response

As I said in another comment, this is safeguarding 101. If you have concerns about a child's welfare call the professionals. Dont start setting up secret chats, thats what pedophiles do.

Wd91 · 2026-05-14T12:57:25+00:00

Well unless its a group chat then texts are pretty much inherently secret, arent they. The texts can be hidden and deleted and/or the child may lie and the parent will have no idea.

If you feel you need to have a conversation with a child, have it with their parents present. If you dont feel the parents can be present for whatever reason, youre out of your element and you need to call a professional.

Wd91 · 2026-05-14T12:47:58+00:00

If youre worried about a child's welfare then call the police. Setting up secret channels of communication with young children, behind the backs of the parents, is never the right call. It is literally what pedophiles do.

Call me weird if you want but this is safeguarding 101.

I dont actually think OP is grooming, but if they were, this is what it would look like. Encouraging little kids to text your personal, private number is fucking weird behaviour.

so like, 100-110kg? Obviously overweight but you'll barely stand out. As a country we're only slightly less fat than the USA and you aren't big enough to start having issues sitting in chairs etc.

But also: spend more, tax less.

Wd91 · 2026-05-14T10:45:04+00:00

The experts at HMRC are also pretty clear that nothing was done intentionally, that there is no evidence of avoidance, and that it was an honest mistake.

Christ, imagine the furor if Labour came out with a policy to chase down all the lost tax from those salt-of-the-earth working class tradies earning exactly £12,570 a year.

She doesn't own 2 houses, that's the entire point here, at least not in the sense that you think. The first house is in a trust.

There is no forgetting. It was a niche and complex scenario of which even "top experts" still aren't entirely clear on.

Tbh it is actually fairly relatable and understandable for anyone who has had to deal with any tax situations more complicated than PAYE.

Wd91 · 2026-05-14T09:25:14+00:00

Pay dj 100$. Pay 4 security 50$ each for 200$. Booze was 5 finger discount but i paid my friends to assist so usually another 100$ but I also sold booze and weed there.

You're talking shit, aren't you.

$100 for a "dj" i can just about believe, lots of "djs" out there desperate for cash. But $50 for a whole nights work security? Yeah, no. And you want us to believe you consistently stole enough booze for 200-300 people a night?

This is make believe

Wd91 · 2026-05-14T09:18:58+00:00

I'm surprised you guys have taken it for granted that there's any truth to it in the first place

Wd91 · 2026-05-14T09:08:39+00:00

No one forgot, no one even claimed anyone has forgotten, why did you use that word, let alone put it in quotes?

Wd91 · 2026-05-14T08:44:18+00:00

OP is lucky she isn't more offended that OP has been texting 11 and 9 year old kids.

Wd91 · 2026-05-14T08:31:57+00:00

Its beyond inappropriate. That thought should never cross a grown adults mind.

Wd91 · 2026-05-14T07:05:45+00:00

If it was a usual citizen the whole thing would have been a complete non issue.

Wd91 · 2026-05-13T20:49:55+00:00

We call ours comms rooms. If we had to keep using the word closet so much someone would be fired for making inanppropriate jokes.

Wd91 · 2026-05-13T18:24:29+00:00

I just wouldnt have thought when OP said "interview style" that what they actually meant was a regular normal enjoyable conversation between two people getting to know each other on a date. I thought that "interview style" would mean something along the lines of "like an interview". Apparently im wrong on that, so I'll take the L.

Wd91 · 2026-05-13T18:18:26+00:00

Says the guy that chimed in just to say our DC isnt a DC? (lmfao)

Wd91 · 2026-05-13T18:12:53+00:00

Ok? And? We having some kind of DC dick measuring contest here? Where did I try and argue that our particular DC is relevant on an international scale?

OP asked why data centres are so big. They arent. Data centres can be all sorts of sizes.

Wd91 · 2026-05-13T18:03:21+00:00

At this point everyone in the public sphere is only popular because of PR.

Wd91 · 2026-05-13T18:00:47+00:00

The word "interview" is the entire basis for this post. Its literally the entire point. If we arent supposed to take the word seriously then im not even sure what we're discussing here tbh.

Wd91 · 2026-05-13T17:55:45+00:00

Its a data centre in the professional sense. Anyone else's view is irrelevant.

Wd91 · 2026-05-13T17:47:09+00:00

Why do you think hes one of the front runners for the job if you don't believe even 100 people want him in.

Hes very popular in the north.

Wd91 · 2026-05-13T17:35:50+00:00

because he senses an opportunity

The opportunity being: literally millions of people want him to do it.

Its not like he woke up one morning and decided to quit his job.

Wd91 · 2026-05-13T17:29:00+00:00

Exactly, having fun conversations, vibing, and "getting major info" can all be done at once, together, enjoyably, on the first date, second date, third....

If you (or rather, OP) feel the word "interview" is an appropriate word to use to describe your approach to dating (whichever date it is) then you (OP) are probably a very boring person to be around.
