  1. Told you I hate McBurnie.
  2. You can play on, but if you do you can't come back and give a red as it obviously wasn't denying a clear goalscoring opportunity. Everything is coming up Swansea with this ref today.
  3. Don't know why, but I bloody hate McBurnie.
  4. Was that Guillermo del Toro? I saw his face on an article about the fires this morning but I dislike the guy so I didn't read it.
  5. Well his dad was super famous too. Still struggling to see what this has to do with wildfires in California, however.
  6. Most west-coast houses are wood. As Frank said, they're a lot more flexible for earthquakes, AND considerably cheaper to construct.
  7. We actually get the aftermath of these fires here in Reno. Last year we got a governmental warning to remain indoors as the air outside was dangerous to breathe. At least we don't get the fires though. There's nothing green here. I can't imagine what these people go through watching their whole lives burning to the ground.
  8. Jack Kirby would beg to differ. Sad that he passed, but I've never known anyone who stole their fame as much as that man.
  9. First time we've lost 4 home games in a row without scoring... in our history. Record-breaking Wanderers are back again!
  10. Well played. I never want to know where these places are, mind.
  11. Nobody is rotting without making awful choices. If you finish high school, get (and keep) a job, and wait until you're married (or in a stable relationship, it is 2018 after all) before you have kids then you will not remain in poverty. Anyone who claims otherwise is blaming others for their mistakes.
  12. This. 100% this. And the USA is starting to follow in those well-worn (and proven to be terrible) footsteps. That's why Trump won the presidency in the first place - people noticing this pattern, or the direction the country was heading, and making a stand.
  13. Nope, never said that mass smartphone ownership is down the generosity of billionaires. I feel like you should probably re-read what I put. The massive increase in homelessness is because socialism concepts that exist in the UK are failing. And yes, I would say that a lot of them made terrible choices in the past, not just limited to (but probably including) being lazy cunts. Honestly in my post I was more referring to the US (you know, as I assumed people would realize in a thread about THE PRESIDENT OF THE USA) but thank you for including the UK for me as an example of WHY the US should avoid implementing any socialized programs. And why they should build a border wall. What my post was saying, is that the free market and capitalism has led to ALL recent technological breakthroughs. And those same concepts make everyone richer, rich and poor alike, just not at the same rate.
  14. Such a short-sighted view of the world. Yes, the gap is getting wider. Nobody can, and will, deny that. Is it really a bad thing that the rich are outpacing the poor in obtaining wealth, when even the poorest (if you don't include homeless, obviously) are still far better off than they ever were. Free market capitalism obviously benefits those who can put more money in at the risk of getting more out, and as such the gap between rich and poor will obviously widen. However, free market capitalism is why human life expectancy has increased, how we got technological advancements and we all walk around with access to the entire world in our back pocket, how we travel worldwide far cheaper and quicker than we used to.
  15. Ah, gotcha. I have my cabling going through the crawlspace below the house, so I don't have any wires running everywhere, just behind the TVs (which I hide in channeling). Considering most of the network traffic is streaming video, I'm not too concerned about upgrading the wiring when new speeds come out, just the small stretch from my router to my computers - online gaming can be a real drag with wifi interference and dropped packets. A wireless printer is magical though, I'll agree with you there.
  16. PCs on wifi is super pikey. Only things I have using wifi are my phone and iPad. Everything else (including TVs, boxes, consoles etc.) are all wired.
  17. You must be new here. It's either amazing or dire. There's no inbetween. Welcome to Bipolar Ways.
  18. Most mass shootings ARE done with pistols. More specifically, 9mm semi-automatic pistols.
  19. Kiddie Fiddlers should have their dicks cut off. Filth.
  20. This refereeing team is winding me up... - Offside EVERY time we go forward. I understand we could be, but EVERY time? - Dozens of free kicks for us, no card to any Rotherham players. First free kick we give away (which was questionable) and we get a yellow. - Any opportunity to blow for a free kick in their defensive third. I'm getting tired of these officials in this league. I'm sure they didn't used to be this bad.
  21. That used to be the one away game I always went to! Loved that drive, and it was usually a decent game too.
