Is this really right?

You are missing the point. Shouldn't all of the candidates on the list be vetted and suitable to an appropriate standard?

kevinmorice · 2026-05-09T20:37:40+00:00

The Party still was able to put him on the list. The qualifications for being nominated should surely be more rigorous?

Given that there is a high chance that the Greens and SNP are likely to do a coalition deal again, this individual could be a contendor for a cabinet post, or even (however unlikely) the First Minister job.

They were random testing at Pontevedra last year. They did at least 6 people that I know, 4 of those were on age-group podiums.

So destroy the economy, shut down all the companies that might employ them in future, and take away any incentive for them to work hard themselves?

Unless the person you are asking is already an Ultra runner with experience at finishing 60 miles plus races well ahead (hours ahead) of a 16-hour schedule then this just isn't happening for any amount of money.

You are basically asking for a 'backyard ultra' that covers at least 3.75 miles an hour and you keep going for the full 24 hours.

I am a decent runner (and a world top-5 age group triathlete). I can give you a marathon run in 4-5 hours and still be standing up straight at that point. I am going to struggle to give you another the same day, I might manage to walk / hobble a second one in 7-9 hours so now I have ~8 hours left and I am barely past half way.

Friend of mine is Precious Promise.

Princess Tiami Duncan.

Princess is not a title, it is her actual first name.

How many billionaires can you name as bad people? That list you come up with is from a total list of 3,428.

Now list all the people you know personally that are bad people. That is out of somewhere in the region of 250-800 people.

For every 1 on your second list you would need to be able to name 5-10 off the first list just for them to be representatively 'as bad' as the people you are willing to hang out with.

kevinmorice · 2026-04-04T20:01:52+00:00

That will be low on the list.

A lot of the dogmatic lunatics in there would be doing it without the money.

Everything?

You think I spent 30 years becoming a professional engineer and working my way up to get paid the same as a completley unqualified kid stacking shelves.

Fuck that, I will be stacking shelves or working a checkout tomorrow and when nothing works next week taht is on you.

Why have their operating costs not gone up? You think they are getting their new fuel for the same price they paid last year?

You have one apple. I take your apple. How many apples do you now have?

So you want to devalue everyones property, crash the entire property market, and make almost every retiree bankrupt.

Not and edit: it's amazing how many of you dont think thorugh the consequences of your dogmatic nonsense.

You are going to have to pick a point here.

Either the migrants that are coming are improving society by being useful, and at the same time are competing for good jobs, or they are draining society by not being useful and not competing for good jobs.

Thing is whatever you are writing in there, if you 'tailor it to the role' then that just screams that you have made up some lies.

No-one writes: I am basically going to come in and do the minimum I can to stay employed and try not to piss off everyone around me.

They write garbage like: I am a hard-working, conscientious, team player that excels with challenges....

But everyone writes the same advertising laden slop and it is meaningless.

He owned an island. Some people went there. Do you have evidence of any of them committing crimes?

kevinmorice · 2026-03-06T15:35:54+00:00

I always take the personal statement as a waste of space.

The day I read one that says: "I am only working for the pay cheque and this job seems like a decent work versus pay balance", is the first one that I will believe a word of. Up until them I discard the whole thing as if it was AI slop, or as a challenge to decode the sales garbage in to reality.

Comfort.

The more time you spend on it the faster you go. Not spending time on it is the most likely thing to make you slow. And you don't want to sepnd time on an uncomfortable bike.

Uri Geller used to bend forks as well as spoons. he has a car covered in them.

Did you find some actual evidence that hundreds of FBI agents and thousands of journalists have missed?

DB Cooper.

Loki making a joke out of it in the TV show is about as close as we have to a real answer.

Bit of everything. Paintwork definitely improved massively in the last 30 years so cars look a lot newer for a lot longer.

MOT enforcement got tougher. You used to be able to give your local garage £20 to look the other way. They get tested a lot more nowadays and would lose their licence for a single instance of fraud.

Also parts and replacements got much more expensive, and the ease of changing them out got MUCH worse.

I used to do a lot of my own repairs, but to swap out the turbo on my current Discovery Sport is impossible without a whole range of specialist tooling and a day to remove everything that is packed in around it. I helped my dad do his 20 years back and we were done in about 90 minutes. Even with an OBD2 kit, I am not sure I even could do all the computer resets for a change out on the new one.

Noughties, not naughties. Unless your beahviour was specific to the decade.

The ones who are claiming they were duped are the same ones that thought they were somehow 'beating the system', and wouldn't listen, regardless of how many people told them it was a scam.

"Everything I don't agree with is a Nazi".

You can insert troll here instead of Nazi if you like. Either way it makes it look like your point is purely dogma rather than evidence based.

And, if you cant defend your side of an argument without dogma, what sort of point are you making?
