  1. Reporter of this is a legend OMG... And so right!
  2. Did I? Well every statement I make he seems to want to have a passive aggressive pop at me. Last time I checked I wasn't that egregious... Perhaps it's just me.. Long day yesterday. We'll see..
  3. Perpetually offended faggots like you are what's wrong with society. It'll all come crashing down when you get arrested for scratching your balls after forgetting some pc nut job like yourself decided it was a hate crime.
  4. I bet you're a barrel of laughs....
  5. Wow you quoted huffpost and the BBC, it must be accurate. He's also got a bruised nose so he must have hit someone...
  6. Singular actually. And mortgage fraud to be precise. Who gives a fuck? Under qualified is two words btw...
  7. It's preposterous. Apparently the judge was initially tearing apart the prosecution and has now changed tact. More and more I feel there is an agenda to this kind of suppression of free action.
  8. Guy has been found guilt of getting his dog to do the Nazi salute lol. It would be f*****g hilarious if it wasn't so f******g concerning.....
  9. Used a cut throat a few time but takes me too long to do it and I HATE shaving around the adams apple. Bought this a year or so ago. Pricey but I'm glad I put my hand in my pocket. Near as dammit as good as a wet shave and far less hassle. https://uk.braun.com/en-gb/products/male-grooming/electric-shavers/series-7-grey-with-clean-and-charge-station-and-travel-case
  10. OK I got I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm very sorry. Perhaps something else about wrong words. Please put me out of my misery?
  11. Don't do lap dances. Never saw the fun in getting all wound up and not being able to do anything. Rather get the mrs to do it. Besides... I'm rinsed out and nursing myself today. At home with the feet up.
  12. The old caretaker where I used to work was all excited about her retirement that year many years ago. It turned out she had got her age wrong and was a year younger than she thought so had to do another year.. So damn funny lol.
  13. When one's birthday is 10-03-1978 ;-)
  14. Very little MSM coverage also. I wonder why that is....
  15. Hail Marys is correct I think. Catholic school. All boys. Escaped buggery! Praise Jesus!
  16. This one is pure gold!
  17. I also use duck duck go. I use it because I don't trust google. They are hard left wing, they censor free speech and the have an absolutely monopoly on how information is sourced, presented or hidden. Even if google were more centrist, as I am, I would still avoid using them as it seems logical to me that information should be provided, streamed, whatever you want to call it, by a huge diversity of players. And no I'm not into anything perverted. I can't stand sexual perverts of any description. They make me sick.
  18. Exactly! It's not that they will believe nothing or anything. It's that they will believe what they are "free" to choose to believe. I don't believe in "anything" per se! Yet I would gladly give my life for the people I love. I'll then be dead, and nothingness will be my reward. Does that make me a better person than a believer? Being good for the gain of literal nothingness? Crap quote! All it illustrated was that he had a mind capable of basic thought and nothing more!
  19. I would work abroad for more yes but I'd expect to be considerate and appreciative of the culture I was going to, learn the language of that society and no be illegible for benefits of any kind.
  20. We're going round in circles but yeah I don't dispute any of that really. I was merely pointing out that the statistic you provided, of middle east having 100 uni's in the top 20% not only wasn't proof of anything good, it was evidence that the middle east is doing diabolically educationally. That is the crux of it and that was the point I was trying to make. If you're going to argue with someone and present data then you want to be sure that data is in favour of your argument, not against it. There are 17000+ uni's world wide. 20% = 3400 there are 194 countries in the world 15 in the middle east (number changes now and then) So.... 100/194 x 15 = 7.7% So basically that means that despite the middle east being 7.7% of the world out of the 3400 universities in the top 20% they could only field 100 which is terrible. I know have a headache lol
  21. Nope I wasn't implying anything you just said I was implying. I'm not even sure, or have even thought the issue through, as to whether it is morally right, or neutral or what to take educated people from lesser privileged countries. As such I haven't involved myself in that specific debate. All I was saying is you were making an argument in defence for middle eastern education that was, upon investigation, a paradox to the reality of the way it was presented. That said, do I think they are all shit? Nope! I wouldn't have a clue, and in your defence I wouldn't entirely trust the accuracy of ANY polls from anywhere on any subject, including university ranking as they WILL be biased one way or another. You called it, so I called you on it! However, with regard to immigrating educated people from these places, it's kinda moot, as I think outside the EU or outside UK most higher education courses require a conversion degree in the UK in order to practice professionally. This weeds out the "shit hole" universities from the "shit hole" countries. To coin a phrase "allegedly" uttered by Trump. Though yes I can believe he said it.
