    Politics.

    They're all idiots.
    Look at Brexit, Gove, Patel, BoJo et al. Deliberately lying, knowing they can do what they want and getting away with.
    Makes me too mad to think about so I've stopped thinking about it!

    Struggling to think of something I do give a sh*t about.

    I own a property ..and thanks to the homeless crisis i and the risk of being sued for discrimination i had to show to 128 ...yes ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY EIGHT PEOPLE to show i wasn't discriminating.


    I then had to ring at least half of those back to further show i was not discriminating.

    That is down the homeless crisis.

    You try showing a flat to 128 people in 12 days.

    That would be more indicative of poor property management practices on your part IMO.

    I also own a property, (2 actually counting my home) but use an agent to manage it.
    My own time is far more precious to me than the 7% management charge.

    It's awful to be comfortably off isn't it, goddamn plebs not appreciating the effort us of the landlord class put into avoiding risk and litigation whilst maximising the return...

    You need to be careful IMO, as over the past couple of days it's almost as if you are actively trying to fulfil a stereotypical trope that I'd never have labelled you with in your 1st 5k posts. ;)

    Except you do. Otherwise you wouldn't be fouling up threads like a stubborn pigeon in the rafters.

    My point is more the nonsense spoken in the media and by opposition politicians about the housing 'crisis'. So much of it is complete rubbish and they love labelling anything and everything as a bloody crisis, here a crisis, there a crisis, everywhere a crisis crisis.

    Ps, I do have a nice secure job and a very reasonable tenancy also :-)

    How about you?

    Answered in part above in a reply to iloveyourvibes.

    But to answer your own question.
    I'd share what I think is your opinion as to our manufactured homelessness.
    Quite a large degree of our crisis is manufactured and a result of extremely shortsighted policy decisions.

    In particular the original removal of bedsit type accommodation pushed a large cohort of single people towards homelessness with no effort made to legislate to replace those beds removed from the market.

    And now that FG have reintroduced glorified bed-sits they are quite rightly imo being called out for it.

    On my own accommodation I own my home outright(thankfully) and I am currently a medical pensioner.

    Brexit.

    I used to be enthralled by it but three years later I'm so f*cking fed up with all the coverage it gets and the stupidity of the whole thing that I just want it to be over and never have to hear the word again.

    LGBTQxyz.. I couldn't give a crap if you're gay or if someone wants to identify as a man, woman or a unicorn, but I'd draw the line at a man identifying as a woman to use a female change room.. If that man follows my daughter into a changing room I'm identifying as the tooth fairy and kicking out all his teeth :)

    Soccer & Golf, I simply don't care.
    Yeah, sure you would.


    People love making out that they're these straight talking hardmen online. It's laughable.

    Any odds offered on how many kicks it will take to knock out all the teeth of the changing room offender?

    Is it Mak doing the kicking?
    Is there a nearby kerb or bench?
    Does the kickee have a full set of naturals to start with?
    :D

    Wimping out because he’d whip your sexagenarian ass. Understandable.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,206 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    Think it's all been said

    Reality TV, celebrities, influencers, etc.


    Then again, to each their own. What I give a crap about (Brexit, politics, sci-fi, gaming, etc) could completely bore the pants off others.

    Fcuk Putin. Glory to Ukraine!

    You try showing a flat to 128 people in 12 days.

    And you manage to start 196 threads and post 300000 times in the last few weeks.

    As someone who knows Makikomi in real life, I can confirm that Woke Hogan is wrong.

    Makikomi is a gent, unless you are an asshat....then he will tell you are an asshat.
