This is the card I got 😡 He said: ‘ i bought it on Saturday and was writing it last night. I thought ‘ i have heard that phrase before. Then i remembered ’ ‘fuck . it was the No sides strapline in the Independence referendum. I didn’t have time to get another card so just altered it . ‘ We had better get a win tonight or this could go down as the worst anniversary ever. 😂 I can't believe he didn’t chance it with "I got this for a laugh"! Is he often a bit too honest? Maybe that's a good sign 😊 Happy Anniversary! 🥂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably weighed up his options in a mad panic and felt the ‘joke ‘ suggestion could have backfired had I been in a ‘mood’ 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like phrases such as 'better together', 'once in a generation' and 'that's democracy for you' are etched into my soul! Oh , do not associate ‘ he hates politics’ with ‘taking a step back’ . He thinks they are ALL crooks . Infact he could have his very own ‘Get it off your chest ‘ thread dedicated to the crookiness of all them crooks. I know what you mean about certain phrases. I get a shiver when I see ‘Better Together ‘ written anywhere . However I console myself with the fact it must be worse for the other side, lets be honest, its pretty hard to avoid ‘YES’ 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaundy Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 I think the thought that us having a vote now and then for various representatives is the comfort blanket we’re expected to cling to . 50crates explained it’s just a confidence trick . Try and disagree. I worry the Euros won’t happen too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave78 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 I don't read this thread, so apologies if this has been posted before (i really hope it has, then it won't just be me). "Just about". What does that mean to you? To me it's when you nearly did a thing. Not that you only just managed it. Fitba commentators seem to have changed the definition of the phrase. I think they all listen to each other. One of them started using it that way, now they all do. Similar to that, listen to how many are now copying McCoist with his over-use of "really". Cunts.

DoonTheSlope Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Cunts In Airports and On Planes •The priority boarding passengers that dilly dally and have to be called to board while the rest of us are occasionally held back until they have. If you’re not there at the time of priority boarding then that’s hard lines •When priority and non priority are boarded simultaneously. I’d be kicking up fuck if I’d paid a premium •when the departure board tells you that your gate will be announced at 08:35 and at 08:41 you’re still waiting to be told what gate your flight is boarding from •Folk that don’t queue to board their flight despite the departure board telling them to do so and just straggle their way to the gate so they could finish their pint or as I’ve heard in the booth behind me in the bar once “another quick round” in a guttural-nasal Glaswegian accent •People who walking up the aisle with their backpacks on their backs turning and walloping people sat in the aisle seats. Usually it’s the same dafties with their neck pillows. You’re on a 2 and a bit hour flight to Alicante mate no 14 hours from Heathrow to Santiago •Entitled arseholes who don’t want to sit in their allocated seats so they can sit next to their travel partners. If you’re that desperate to sit beside your companion then pay the premium to do so. If you can’t sit by yourself for a couple of hours then you shouldn’t be allowed out of the house in all honesty •The “I’ve never flew Ryanair” mob on social media who think it gives them some moral superiority. It’s akin to Tory bastards making light of foodbanks etc. -the phalacy that they charge to use the toilets -“I’m never flying Ryanair again” 6 months later… “who you flying with?” ”aw Ryanair” who else are you going to fly with that will get you to some obscure city or town for £10,£15,£20? •Kids on planes. However exceptional circumstances do apply. -children crying are exempt. That’s what they do, especially babies. No issue here whatsoever. One could argue why a child that young is travelling but not everyone is going on holiday -parents who are more interested in the ‘bevvy cart’ than they are looking after their children and preventing them from slamming the tray table constantly, spoilt little brats over about the age of 6 or so screeching and causing a scene because they can’t get their way do not fall under the exemption category •That one fanny who always has to stand in the aisle during his flight so’s to make himself seen and heard. Often in some form of Celtic uniform. Sit doon ya fanny, it’s not an away bus. Naibdy gies a fuck who you are •This phalacy that we (UK passport holders) have to wait ‘ages’ or ‘forever’ to get through passport control at our destination if arriving from the UK. We’ve always had queue to show our passports. I’ve been through umpteen EU passport controls since Brexit and only once waited more than 10 minutes or so to get through. The exception being Prague where they put everyone in the same queue. After a while they opened the all passports desks and quelle surprise I was stamped and through within 5 minutes while the EU queue was tailed all the way back •Edinburgh airport.

Shaundy Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Given all the fuss since something in New York over 20 years ago using an airport is more off putting than arrest and processing. Hyperbole you reckon! Fuk u . have been arrested a few times in a few countries (few charges) yet the biggest pisser was the treatment of my late dad at our transfer at Heathrow on the way from Glasgow to Singapore. Walking stick , belt , no assistance. anyhoo, my real complaint is why aren’t more folk blowing up planes with bombs in their shoes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
