You can buy vibes in Ann Summers, so they're probably conditional alright.

I could buy the vibes, but would I have earned the vibes?

I do this. Is rare I'm in a restaurant but I love to watch cookery videos on youtube and for sure I take photos of food in restaurants.

So much goes into the presentation. You wouldn't take a photo of a pile the mashed potatoes high carvery lunch but for a restaurant meal, yep I do it

Likely 2 or 3 chefs checked that plate before it was sent and so I appreciate it 😊

I suppose it is art in a way, take the picture BUT don't post it to facebook or twitter etc, no one really wants to see it.

"While I do not go around constantly judging people - as I am not a Christian" - I hope the irony of your own statement isn't lost on you 😂 I'm not a Christian either and don't really care about religion or those that practice it, but you're literally judging them in the sentence you claim not to judge others.

I get the sense that the people who obsess over Instagramming their dinner don't actually enjoy the food as much. They're so focused on projecting to the world that they're living the life that they don't live it.

Anyone who says "oh my God you have to watch it" about a TV show or movie. Trust me, they are not stopping to consider your tastes when they say this.

I politely emailed a customer service department regarding a maintenance issue I was having with a piece of fitness equipment… the local rep ( UK based ) replied in a rather terse and disinterested tone that the information as to how to do what I need is in the user manual……..…” read the manual, now fûck off” was the general gist…

there are multiple user manuals, hundreds of pages but no reference in her communication as to which manual, which section and which page… “ go read the manual“…

imagine buying a brand new car, TV, cooker, whatever and having an issue, while the product is still pretty new and …” go read the books we gave you “….

forwarded her correspondence to their head office which I’m really not inclined to ever do but really, should be dumped in the fûcking sea off the coast of Southhampton.

Just wondering if you are a vegetarian/vegan? Otherwise the animal that people have shot for food has lived a far better life than the animals that you and the vast majority of the population consumes every day.

That three euro chicken form Aldi, living a miserable unnatural life is a far bigger issue than what you are talking about.

I'm well aware of how unethically they are treated, but nope I'm not a vegan or vegetarian, I'm not perfect. But I'm saying I dislike ppl shooting them for sport, if they're a starving poor person in need of food, that's different. I still stand by my point.

They're certainly not endangered species though. And no, the people shoot them don't check whether they're endangered or not before they do so.

Would get some rogue shooters alright but the vast majority I have come across follow the strict rules on what animals they can shoot at what time and place.

Maybe if you saw the way the animals that you eat are treated and how they are mass killed etc you would notice how much more humane it is for someone to shoot a wild animal for food. The modern world has made a disconnect between the reality of how our food is produced and what we see in the supermarket with nice packed meat products.

My sister is a vegetarian for decades because she believes it is inhumane the way the food industry treats animals, she has no problem with someone hunting for food as long as the animal is killed humanely.

People who believe absolutely everything they are told by the media and government. Covid, The climate "emergency", Ukraine. We live in an era where alternative views and studies are available at a click of a button, yet some people still believe complete and utter half truths as long as they are delivered by a man of authority in a suit.

Take Ukraine for instance. It comes on the news that a Russian missile strike has killed 80 people in a hospital. My first reaction is, why would anybody necessarily believe it was a Russian missile? Only the other day Zelensky was claiming there were 1000 people in the shopping centre that was bombed- I can say from personal experience that if you walked through the Blanch centre on a Tuesday afternoon in the middle of summer you wouldn't find a third of that amount of people present. Other bomb attack photos have shown burnt out cars sitting beside low hanging streetlights and pane glass windows that somehow didn't shatter during the explosion which apparently gutted the vehicles. Atrocity propaganda has been a feature of every single war in the media age- why anybody thinks the Ukrainians are above it is anybody's guess.

There clearly is a war on, but anyone who swallows every story coming out of there isn't the sharpest tool in the box.

So who are you claiming shot the missile? Who has motive?

Drunken Oaf

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119283434#Comment_119283434

I'm not claiming anybody did or did not. Simply saying that Ukraine, the US all have motivation to do so.

A few months back a Ukrainian MP posted what she said was a mass grave of massacre victims. Not only was it clearly a new section of an existing graveyard where the dead hadn't been given gravestones yet, the temporary markers for the graves had, when enlarged, dates of death on them that clearly pre dated the Russian invasion!

How anybody swallows this nonsense is beyond me.

And what about the intercepted phone calls where the Russian soldier's wives and mothers encourage them to rape and murder Ukrainian women and children? How anybody in the West takes these recordings as gospel after two years of Covid hyperbole reporting just floors me.

I don't recall any previous war in the modern era that sought to portray the average civilian, let alone soldier, of the rival country as a murderous, souless devil in the way we are told the average Russian is like this. Hell, we spent the whole of the 2000s being reminded that Islam is the religion of peace, despite groups like ISIS clearly enjoying, initially at least, decent popular support.

People with no hobbies or pastimes that they enjoy.

Also people with no interest in history and dont have a clue whats going on in the world.

People who just live in there own bubble basically.

Just went to a date recently where the dude said he didn't believe in evolution because if it was real we would have evolved into something else, not humans... He saw it on youtube!

Eh, no thanks

The thread is called "moron-deal breaker point of reference".

And here we have a textbook case.

There's so much wrong with this post I don't even know where to start. How about posting this guff on the Russia thread where it can be shredded to pieces. It's usually a dead giveaway someone can't stand over a word they've said when they can't even find the right thread to post it.

Middle aged men driving convertibles who put the top down whilst stopped in traffic just because you give the car a second glance, total knobs, just go and cut your wispy hair,dress appropriately, buy a real car and cop on,people are looking at you with pity not admiring you.

Hmm, are you sure... if you happened to win one in a car draw... you wouldn't do the same? Honest answer?

I know I would :)

And the thing is, a lot of them do have real cars... they can afford to take this one out for a spin only when they want to.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119285910#Comment_119285910

Definitely not, I'm 100% sure, each to their own and I know plenty of them have other cars , just wouldn't be for me.

The irony of the irony is the basis that the level of judgement of others that a follower of any religion becomes is directly proportional to their adherence to that religion.

Level of adherence, and therefore judgement, is my first port of call when it comes to the moron-deal breaker reference.

go away standard. you're ignored by me now too.
