  1. 1/2 of the proclaimers supports us.
  2. Why aye, a knarr what you mean like. Them fookin Gooners divn't tak proper man. My boss is an Arsenal "fan". From India, lives in America, never been to Emirates or Highbury (I've been to both). In fact I know loads of Arsenal "fans" from work who are similar, due to the invincible period.
  3. 7 wins on the trot for Dubs, 1 goal conceded.
  4. Meanwhile on a sad message board not too far away.
  5. Maybe not but fuck me we are getting closer to winning something. Genuinely think it's this year.
  6. He should yawn and put his feet up.
  7. Think some stat that we lost the last 7 he wasn’t playing. Amazing result this.
  8. Tino too. Think we've got the best full backs in the league and they're almost kids.
  9. We shut up shop for 100 minutes 2 years ago there and it worked.
  10. Hotel booked. 1) Hope I haven't Gemmilled us. 2) Any volunteers on here to look after my kids?
  11. Sounds like my GP. Saw the GP a few weeks ago because I was running out of topical drugs to treat my eczema, which I could feel was flaring up, but wasn't that bad at that time. Being proactive based on decades of personal experience. She was absolutely obnoxious, gave me a prescription then and there and told me to self refer to secondary care if I felt it was getting on top of me (I think this was partly because I refused to have UV therapy for a lot of reasons). So anyway, today I try to get a repeat prescription on my NHS app and she has stopped everything. No medication review, nothing, just stopped my prescription without even telling me. So now a flare is pretty inevitable which will mean I get genuinely ill and will need antibiotics. Going ther in person this afternoon which I can do as its near but still. Oh aye, and cos of global shortages, made much worse by Brexit, even once I get the prescription it will take weeks for some products to get dispensed if at all. Primary care is a shambles and needs to be the focus of NHS reform imo.
  12. I think that means you're a maximum of 5 years old?
  13. Jummy Smith, opening day match against Wolves which we won 3-2. We finished 12th that year and never won anything again.
  14. I haven't read the referenced article or the thread, but what amuses me is that it has already generated a 21 page thread after less than 2 hours.
  15. BTW. Has there EVER been anything more shameless than the tories attacking Starmer and Phillips over child sexual abuse and implicitly supporting Musk over this? Something about this was really bugging me more than normal. Then I remembered. Remember this? Remember when their leader and PM of the time said money spent investigating historic child sex abuse was money "spaffed against the wall"? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-47560192 I actually hate these cunts just as much in opposition. They have no decency, no humility, no humanity whatsoever. They are, and always will be, scum.
  16. Dunno. He's got a 13% share which is not insignifcant I guess. I think the ground will collapse around him soon enough, it's impossible to function long-term the way he is.
  17. He's clearly off his tits on drugs. Even Trump is not this bad. I think Trump needs to jettison him which, according to Scaramucci, he already has.
  18. Be interesting to know how many of the usual right wing suspects are happy with this. "He's only asking questions" is my guess.
  19. It wasn't the kilt per se mate, more your insistence to truly embrace your PL roots and go commando.
  20. I'm in consultancy. Can't say too much but we had a client approach us who basically were trying to sell a generic antiseptic you can buy in Tesco to the NHS for thousands of pounds a dose. I just laughed. No way are you getting away with that shit here. The States though is more the wild West - not for regulation but for payment and compensation. When I joined here, 3 years ago, my boss pretty quickly sold us as a going concern to an American company, which as I've mentioned I pretty much hate working for. Got millions for it. Mansion in London, villa in France. He must have had a clause that he couldn't start another company for 2 years. Now that's passed, he's started a phoenix company and nicked half our staff. Cheeky bastard. Pretty sure this shit happens in every industry though.
  21. No. Sounds either that would be a bus man's holiday to me or an annoying polemic by a guardianista journo with no qualifications or real knowledge of the subject. It's very complicated. It costs minimum of a billion pounds to develop a drug with no guarantee of return. Some of them are used only in a handful of patients. Pharma exists within the capitalist paradigm, no shit Pharma companies want to make money. I'm always puzzled while they're singled out. I mean, the forward to that book, he uses covid vaccination as an example of their negative impact on the world. I mean, what? The vaccines literally saved millions of lives and allowed us to get out of lock down. So companies made money out of it? How awful, they shouldn't have bothered. Not that I don't see bad practice in my industry, I do. But it's still probably the most heavily regulated industry on the planet, along with air travel, nuclear etc. RFK jnr may change this, we'll see, but it won't be for the better. I did read Ben Goldacre's book, Bad Pharma, a couple of decades ago. He's a good writer and a qualified doctor. I still found parts of this hyperbolic though. That's the problem with writing a polemic, you cherry pick data to prove your narrative, which in this case is highly ironic.
  22. Naah. Twitter is an irrelevant money stream for him. He made more in the election than X is worth. His revenue is from Space X and Tesla. Musk is literally like a teenager incel troll nowadays. Off his tits on ketamine, coke, hallucinogenics. Chronic insomnia, desperately unhappy randomly trolling people.
