They must look an even more so right set of cunts doing that jazz hand wanky wave thing - a bit like some of the wooden geeks do on Millionaire. As others have said elsewhere on threads far more established that this one let's see how long it lasts. I am sure they come up with this lunatic stuff just to be noticed and it seems that in this particular case they have succeeded. They'll soon go back to being nondescript, Pot Noodle slurping non-entities spending most of the day contemplating both their navels and their future careers flipping burgers.

Youri McAnespie Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 The institution concerned is ranked 5th in the UK and 29th in the world. It's doubtful that any graduates from said institution go on to 'flip burgers' (ghastly Americanism there, btw) - unless they want to... Jeremy Vine posted a picture of the WW1 trenches in reply to this story - why do they do this, tw*ts who haven't served, let alone in a conflict - insist on stealing the valour of others to support their shitty counters?

Another is that it's an idea that's gathered widespread support in certain quarters and despite its inherent ridiculousness - doesn't seem to be going away.

The pulse munching bastards have been plotting against the Moderators for years. I have always suspected it. Banning Cheese will just be the start. You watch. We bacon eaters will be next.

That's not as stupid as it sounds, the last company I worked for refused to call it Christmas but refered to it as 'The Holiday Season' utter twatting dogshite, it's Christmas.

royal white Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 There used to be a time when most parents wanted their kids to go to Uni. I seriously hope mine want to give it a wide berth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bolty58 Posted October 3, 2018 Members Share Posted October 3, 2018 I wanted my lad to go into a trade which he did. Never looked back. He will soon be starting a job with a mining company working 26 weeks a year (1 week on, 1 week off) for close to as much as I earn for working between 50 and 60 hours a week, 48 weeks per year. Mechanical Engineering fitter who has become a bit of a gearbox specialist. Happy as a pig in shit and enjoys buying a burger from University types on occasion.

No shit Sherlock. Yip. Many graduates now earn between 20-25k a year, I’m pretty sure a decent tradesman can earn almost double that.
