Put posters up and stuff, ask around, and avoid malicious neighbours.

My cat got lost a few months ago and it came back after a few days (mum put posters around in case), but a day after it came back my neighbour claimed she'd seen it's corpse on the main road. Bint.

Hope yours comes back ok.

Sounds like Kiyo.

I'm #15 and around the same time kiyo was around and she's the only profile that doesn't exist anymore.

Gaming / Re: What genres do you avoid playing?
« on: July 10, 2016, 05:20:51 PM »
-Racing. Did em to death in my childhood, not interested.

-Fighters, punch-ups, stuff like Tekken - just not interested in spamming the hit button to win. I concede there's a lot more to it than that in some games (having watched friends play Naruto-whatever-the-current-one-is), but it's all I end up doing so it's boring to me.

-Simulators. Farming, Driving/Racing, Flying, Goat, etc. Only exception being ArmA, but that's more of a shooter than a simulator.

-Japanese developed games, Nintendo, Sega, etc. Just never got into them young like most did and so haven't an interest.

-Horror. I play to relax, not to tense up and shit myself to jump scares.

-Sports. Got Fifa 2003 for the PS1 for christmas, literally the only sports game I've ever played or ever will "need". Even more so for Football manager games or whatever genre they fall under.

Having marathoned TNG during Second year, I can reccomend it.

Once I get back from camping in 3 weeks I'm buying the boxset (need to see if they have those) to repay for me pirating them all.

Pretty good horror.

Quite a lot of jump scares to be fair, but the reveals and then later tension building scenes made it genuinely scary for me.

1452
Probably. Netherlands has drug tourism because you can grab some resin cubes from the same place you get coffee (based on Father's experience).

Not sure how far away that is though, we've only recently started getting decriminalisation of posession of drugs, and only in certain places.

Sandtrap's on Sapphire

What
Well, Sandtrap's on Sapphire
What the fuck?
Oh I thought he went to live in the woods with cancer or something

Not to be a stalker or anything, but around the time he left here he appearred there .

I skim the place when I've over-browsed here and the topics die out, so when I see what Saph's been chatting about over 2 weeks, and he's been there. Quietly, but there.

But anyway, Sandtrap seems to have no ill-will for this place (or anyone or anything in particular), so he may have reccomended a few people here while Saph was recruiting for themselves, I dunno.

Well, Sandtrap's on Sapphire, and they maintain some sort of connection with Bungie.net to gain more members.

Only way I could think of it recently, skimming through #offtopic hasn't really returned any mentions.

Irish, with my Father from two once powerful clans, the O'Donnells and the O'Mahoneys.

Problem is, during the British occupation of Ireland and the Famine most records of the family lines were destroyed or simply forgotten, or in efforts to kill off Irish culture, and so people from lower families took up the powerful names in an attempt to gain respect and land, etc.

It could be likely that one or both sides of my family aren't from these once revered families, and explains why O'Donnells, O'Connells, O'Mahoneys, etc are widesread everywhere and can be completely unrelated to each other.

I'm wrong because you trust muslims that support sharia law and jihad?
Supporting =/= Doing it themselves.
By that logic I'm morally clean considering I support the meat industry, but don't do any killing or mistreatment of animals myself.

That's genius.
Having the idea in your head that something is okay =/= Monetarily supporting an evil industry.



Aye, but monetary support is support regardless. You didn't outline that support in the sense that it only meant thinking about it in a positive light. I'm not a mind reader.

And even the original point falls flat, considering the infamy of Saudi Arabia and more recently, Turkey in their state-sponsored terror operations. It doesn't matter if there's oh-so-many moderates if the right ones (oil magnates, billionaires and a political party in power or two) are supporting and funding the chaos.

Same happened in NI, the same happens in the ME.

Sorta related, I find it funny how the Conservatives are "acting on the people's behalf" by carrying out the Brexit plan, while in Labour, everyone's trying to out Corbyn despite having a majority vote in the Labour leadership elections.
hes got grassroots support, he's had some of the most consistent votes out of any mp and was also one of the most rebellious mps in history, and it's showing


Good on him, I say.

Rank 2 of the Scrapper perk (I think it's at rank 5 of Intelligence?) is useful if you enjoy crafting weapons and settlement building - it highlights the items/containers that are tagged on your HUD (same colour, or yellow if in power armour, sorta similar to how Deus Ex HR does it).

HA!

Cornwall is more likely to form a fledgling independent state than Wales is. Sounds more like an empty threat directed at parliament (given that Plaid IIRC liked being in the EU for Wales' benefit).

Maybe it'll drive up a fuss amongst the more Nationalist Welsh, which judging by opinions heard in the pub since Brexit has been very chest-poundy.

Ayyy, Crabb's an MP near me.

Can't say I know much about his policies though.

In related news.

Basically all the Irish here and Northern Irish (and Britons with some Irish heritage in them somewhere) making use of the  ease of movement it will provide.

Who knows, with the Remain camp large in NI there could even be mumblings of re-unification. At least we have a sense of humour about it, I guess

Kinda characterizes the whole thing for me:


Yeah, it's a mess alright.
It's still the first day. We really need to wait until we have a new prime minister and negotiations begin before we start trying to judge how fucked or not fucked we are.

It's also not unlikely that both Belgium and Spain would veto Scottish entrance to the European Union, given their own troubles with secessionist movements. The Kingdom may yet survive . It's too early to call.
I can see why Scotland would leave, again what with the Remain camp winning by a landslide. Why go down on a sinking ship when you didn't want to be on the feckin' boat in the first place.What I can't believe is Wales was a majority Leave area... it arguably benefited the most from the Union. It's not like Cardiff didn't get it's regeneration scheme funded by the EU, it didn't receive farm and various other subsidies, and now, Wales doesn't even have a fucking industry anymore... apart from tourism, but I can't see how leaving the EU has given it an advantage.

I await to see how Ireland responds to this. Maintain the Good Friday agreement for travel between the two, or join the Schengen and have Britain build some border controls.

All I'm sure of at the moment is I'm happy I chose to have an Irish passport instead of a UK one.
