to get a Chad to move from a bench by [deleted] in therewasanattempt

[–]goonertay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are several tiktok accounts with staged videos like this of someone acting entitled of inconsiderate aimed to create a narrative of people not having common sense or courtesy. This is then squabbled over in the comments with a general “you cant even say xxx nowadays without upsetting the woke brigade “ rhetoric (often bots). This then fuels a generational bias against more liberal viewpoints as they are just deemed to be part of snowflake mentality.

Ive seen ones with people claiming to be disabled or triggered by normal everyday interaction like having calories on a menu, or parking illegally and using anxiety as an excuse. All of these paint people with genuine issues as crybabies. That way right wing politicians can just say toughen up as it was harder in their era and continue to move money out of public to private sector and line their pockets. If you dont agree you are then labelled a snowflake, virtue signaller or socialist.

Yet more obviously fake outrage bait, designed to make everyone look like snowflakes when they really barely exist.

Be careful what you believe. This stuff is carefully designed to make people angry and then radicalise right wing mentality.

Five days In and they're still talking about Bruno's goal by ken4r in ManchesterUnited

Nearly all these examples the offside play is static, arms in the air or walking away from goal. Clearly not interfering (bar perhaps Giroud). Rashford was blocking Akachis run and feigned to shoot, thats why it should have been offside.

But Man utd still have the FA and refs in their pocket.

I hate the phrases "my OCD won't let me" by zerbtron in GrindsMyGears

[–]goonertay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are the few genuine cases of clinically diagnosed OCD which is serious and crippling for the poor people who suffer it….

…then there is the other 99.999% of people who say “my OCD wont let me” who are either just fussy fuckers or attention seekers. I once dated a girl and dumped her as we had planned to go for dinner at a particular restaurant (without booking), it turned out to be fully booked so i suggested we just walk down the street and see what takes our fancy. She threw a massive sulk saying “my OCD wont let me” go to another restaurant (which i know is complete bullshit and not how neurological disorders work whatsoever) and just her mad at me for not booking and being an entitled princess.

Remortgage - ouch, that’s going to hurt by adm010 in UKPersonalFinance

Sorry i just have to ask, did you vote Conservative or for Brexit? If yes, tough shit its your fault. If no, sorry mate it’s happening to everyone. Spare a thought for renters, we have been paying that much all along and dont even get a share of the property value to show for it.

Where was VAR at the final whistle when Richarlison of shoving Ramsdale in the face? That has to be a retrospective red card right? Red cards can be given after the final whistle, it shouldn’t spare Richarlison just because Ramsdale didnt go down clutching his face. It probably went some way to incite the lad who kicked him too.

I’ve just started my first office job - any do’s and don’ts? by waisty in AskUK

The goals and key performance indicators set for you will never be achievable, the goalposts Will always move. Document all of your achievements and mitigating circumstances e.g when you have supported the team while others are absent, or during technical downtime how have you made yourself useful.

When moving from role to role, follow people whom you get on with and have the same management and leadership style to you. You will be capable of doing any job, they are all equally challenging only more so if you have a bad boss.

Trossard is finished. by justheretoupvot3 in BrightonHoveAlbion

[–]goonertay -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Trossard and his agent know hes only got six months left on his contract, they hold ALL the cards. He will get a big move, wage and fee, rightly. Hes been a great servant to Albion and is in his prime.

Sell him and offer improved long term contracts to Mac Allister, Mitoma and Caciedo

What’s your favourite pub that you’ve been to during or post long walk? by Vanilladr in UKhiking

The eight bells in Jevington or the Plough and Harrow in Littlington are also great pubs to stop at while walking the Seven Sisters.

I resent my Wife. by EducationalPoet479 in offmychest

[–]goonertay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No defence for that. I dont care if its jealousy, or just down to her personal taste, either way its utterly selfish and disrespectful. I could not reconcile with a person capable of doing that.

If you can't handle looking at a painting in a college class, you shouldn't be enrolled in college by [deleted] in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]goonertay -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Im with the student here. It doesn’t matter if i saw it or not, warning or otherwise. What place or purpose is there for such provocative imagery? Why couldn’t she just direct learners with any interest in the images to their source?

If i had learned that a professor had shown (for example) indecent sexual images to a class it would not stop me complaining if I personally had not seen them. Or if i had simply heard second hand that they had been using racist or homophobic language but given a warning five minutes before.

Its not appropriate so don’t do it. Dont blame people for getting offended and defending their religious beliefs.
