  1. When I received the Pre-warning PM from Miguel this morning to say I would be tonight's entry my jaw hit the top button of my polo shirt. My earliest thought - inspired by the strong leadership of Prime Minister Rajoy - was to declare the vote null and void, but after cancelling work I decided to look for the positives. 1. What you see from the attached names is the evolution of a poster from a boy of a poster to a poster boy. From a poster red dotted more frequently than Lisa Cuddy's Andrex during rag week to a green machine with posting goals, focus and a clear direction of travel. 2. Next I looked back at the Best posters in history thread - where I came 21st. Which gives me a net approval rating of +11. Revisiting Marshy's thread after chewing my way through Miguel's write up also provided me with a new found love of well written English. 3. I've gained a new friend in @D.A.F.C. Looking at his reputation:output ratio I've been pedestaled alongside an excellent forum member. 4. Then I thought about what 8 points really means. Well for starters it's 5 more points than I hold on my full UK driving Licence. We're moving into frost season, my favourite season on the roads. I've got some Hankook's on the front with a full 8 mm of tread. It's gonna be slippy out there for the angry overdraft-merchants pedaling their way to work! 5. Lastly I feel the need to say that I wish to distance myself from the nasty vitriolic comments I received. Bullying is never acceptable. Behind every username there is a user with a name, and we need to respect each others opinions. I've been open and candid with this forum about my split with Moira, my five-figure income, the need to sell the Lexus, my passion for road safety, and my patriotism for Perth and the surrounding Shire. I've embraced the forum with complete sincerity and commitment and I'll continue to strive to be an asset to the P & B community.

  3. As internal matters within states are obviously no concern of the EU, can we assume they'll be promptly lifting the sanctions placed on Belarus, Burundi, the Central African Republic, China, DR Congo, Egypt, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Iran, Libya, Myanmar, South Sudan, Tunisia, Venezuela and Zimbabwe as a result of the handling of internal matters by each of those states?

  7. THE C UNT'S C UNTS #4 Our final c unt's c un't tied at 38th with 8 points is one I'm going to do a bit differently, mainly due to how much I can't stand the p***k. "or whatever his name is - Jimmy85 talked about narcolepsy, this ringpiece sends me to sleep, and I suffer from insomnia. Bet his missus kicks f**k out of him as well." "the most-confused Labour supporter I've ever come across, and apparently the first human to find a mate and procreate." We all know by now that crusades against users for their political views is a strong influence in the voting here. Just wait to see what happens when oaksoft gets unveiled. Our entry here is no exception to this. As if a previous account where you had to wait for a hidden 'Things Can Only Get Better' by D:Ream video to load for every soporific post he'd made on a page wasn't bad enough, the word salad passing for his thoughts which accompanied it ranged from the coma-inducing to the infuriatingly twisted. The modern Labour party has no connection to the Labour movement and is barely comprehensible as a political party, and here is one of its most brainless acolytes. Noted lying, cheating war mongerer Tony Blair is this poster's hero, and he shares every one of St. Tony's hypocrisies. Morally bereft and too stupid to be self-aware when he trolls, there are few whose contributions on the subject can be considered so worthless. As if this wasn't bad enough he is often described as dull, and with good reason. Jimmy will no doubt bring up that hideous post about looking at his daughter and thinking about how worthwhile life is and how nothing will ever compare to that feeling - then maybe going to the pub, mother of f**k. A combination of twee wholesomeness and creepy bachelor uncle in his fifties in the body of someone whose P&B career has mostly encompassed his early twenties. That's not the worst part though. The worst part is when he transplants his own banality on to everyone else, appearing genuinely surprised or confused whenever someone or something contradicts his own pathetic existence. He once said he was surprised people wore t-shirts outside because he considers them underwear. This is literally a verbatim quote of Niles from Frasier. More recently he claimed to be unaware of the term "eggy bread," which in itself isn't shocking or unexpected, but given the tragic middle aged man contingent of General Nonsense's propensity for constantly repeating utter shite, that he hadn't seen the phrase "eggy dip dip" at any point over the past three years - and don't be fooled, because he posts a lot - winds me up something horrible. Of all the places I've ever frequented on the internet I've never seen one where a userbase so consistently will say that it's the internet and that real life is more important, but I still don't get how someone who posts so actively can be so unaware of the forum itself. There was a Scotland game a few months ago, it might have been the game against England at Wembley. We're getting scudded, obviously, and he's in the match thread, infuriated that people can be laughing at Scotland getting beaten and outplayed. He'll offer this same stinging defence of Scotland and what he perceives to be his Scottish identity while happily saying the same about Leeds or whichever other toilet in England he's actually from. I'm not trying to sound as if I'm excluding him based on where he's lived but when he brings this shite up it's usually to go with one of those attempts at a wholesome post which sound like a pensioner in a twenty-something's body. Appalling. When he "forgot his password" for his original account, another one with a 2 added to the end appeared shortly afterwards. Exactly the same. Dullness on an industrial level. My final note needs to go to something which actually happened quite recently, at least the most overt instance of it. I can handle when he's a hypocrite about politics. Partly because it's funny to watch him make a c**t of himself, partly because I know he's wrong. There are times though when it goes far beyond something you can laugh at. Here is a link to me pointing it out: http://www.pieandbovril.com/forum/index.php?/topic/228929-general-politics-thread/&do=findComment&comment=11625533 And, his posts in full: "The entitled men comment was aimed at trans activists who are causing harm to the gains feminism made rather than Norman trans people. It's noticeable that most trans activists are 'women' who used to be men. They are used to the male entitlement as that's how they've grown up. It's taken years of fighting to get positive discrimination part of the agenda in order to undo the male privilege which is so strong in our society and that battle and argument is still far from over, yet suddenly it's being threatened by a group of largely male to female transgender people who genuinely believe they have the right to enter female only safe spaces. I'm sure you will agree that it is not controversial to say that they are not the same as biological women, yet these activists seem to think it is, and seem to think they should have the exact same entitlement as biological women do. It's hard to see this as anything but male privilege, perpetrated by the very same people who are reinforcing gender stereotypes. I'm certainly not saying all trans people are guilty of this but it seems that the loudest are those on the extreme end and that people on the left feel the need to bend over to those arguments based not on any valid points being made, but purely on this idea that if a group say something it must be so, without looking at how it impacts on those we are supposed to be fighting for." "Just treat everyone with respect and judge someone on what they do and say rather than what they are, would be my advise." A hideous little bigot who will try to disguise this by pretending to be in support of something else. I'd laugh at this like his neo-liberal shilling if it wasn't so disgusting and dangerous, and if it didn't make me so depressed that someone a year or so older than me could think like that. There are people on this list for being terrible posters. There are few who I am quite certain of that they're a terrible person. It's some going to outrank a literal idiot, a charity bet dodging viking TON rip-off and a beast, but @jmothecat, @Jmothecat2you've done it. f**k you.

  10. THE C UNT'S C UNTS #3 We've seen Rudolph Hucker listed already. The ability to be so bad at P&B that you have a dedicated dotter dishing out deserved reds to everything you post deserves recognition and the issue of dotting will come up several times throughout our list. You might think that to actively seek out a person's posts to dot them - red or green - is more worthy of criticism, but not when a poster is as bad as... @SweeperDee "watched his dad get battered, went through a cod psychology phase and generally comes across as a whiny wee wet blanket." "Watched his da get a doing." "snivelling weed that watched his dad get battered whilst hiding in a bush, all because his father never took him to the city to see a marching band...quite possibly" (S)weeperDee currently sits at an entirely deserved -1,200 reputation score. While much of this has historically been a result of the frankly heroic @tbone stag, there has been plenty of fare for the rest of P&B to pile on. Did you know that he saw Donnie Darko once? Did you know that he studied psychology at university? Of course you do, because of the amount of opportunities he takes to bring it up when nobody want or asks for it. This in itself wouldn't be so bad if he wasn't such a bleating shitebag - the late Fudge no longer posts on P&B for no reason at all, but you can trace it to (S)weeperDee. As you can probably tell from the quotes about (S)weeperDee here though there's something more recent. One of those defining moments in P&B's modern history, the sort of thing which you know as you see it will persists for years to come. In the 2015-16 season, Dundee played Rangers at Ibrox in a Scottish Cup quarter-final. Dundee got scudded 4-0, but this wasn't the worst Dee beating to come on that fateful day, in fact it wasn't the worst Dee reaction to seeing some **** out and about. A few hours after the match had finished an incandescent (S)weeperDee appeared ranting and raving about animals, about Rangers fans who set about his dad at a train station. He was simply raging, and he'd batter them if they were with him now. When it was pointed out that this rage would have been better directed to the **** AS THE BEATING WAS ACTUALLY HAPPENED, no. Not how it works, apparently. Straight on the phone to the polis, straight on to P&B with the impotent rage, absolutely no support for Da (S)weeper as he's getting the shit kicked out him. Some embarrassing pictures of a pair of jeans and trainers followed with what looked like pakora sauce spilled on them, alleging blood spilled on his person. Quite where the blood could have come from I don't know, given his apparent lack of direct involvement with the incident. If you'd like to read these events as they unfolded in real time then erm, tough. You can't. In classic (S)weeperDee fashion some crying to the mods has presumably happened as the thread is nowhere to be seen. While P&B's greatest villains have often persisted through appalling posting, even the truly cretinous like 8Mile have survived by taking ownership of what they've done. The older heads amongst us will be able to remember more of (S)weeperDee's performances than watching his dad get leathered and will hopefully share them here, but few recent events have been as high profile and have summed up a poster as well as this one. I hope you get to read this before a full DSM-IV diagnosis of the trauma (S)weeperDee suffered, or indeed before it mysteriously disappears.

  11. I just wonder about all this "the club's changed". Hmm.. When I first watched City Martin went out with a shovel and bucket to pick the dug shite off the Fernieside pitch before a game and you had to take down the goalposts after the game and put them away on top of the wee changing tin hut thing. The club changed when we moved to Meadowbank Stadium. Then the club changed when we got into the Scottish Cup. It changed when we appointed each new managed who brought their own players and ideas. It changed when we brought the Glenpark Youth set-up on board and had a youth team for the first time. It changed when Tam Steven came in with a lot of new players. It changed when we challenged for and then won the East of Scotland League for the first time after being mid-table also rans for many seasons. It changed when club licensing was brought in and the Lowland League was formed. It changed at the final whistle of the Shire play-off match when we were suddenly a Scottish Football League club. It changed when we stayed up after a season in the SPFL. It changed when we had to leave Meadowbank. It changed when Alick found some shekels down the back of his sofa and was able to produce a bumper colour edition of the programme for the first time. It will again change when a new manager comes in.

  25. There would be far less interest in selling guns. It's a one time purchase and therefore you'd need to set the price pretty high. Weed and hookers are repeat purchases and so more widely available. I'd liken the use of guns in mass murder to the rule about buying more than 3 packets of painkillers. People argue it doesn't do anything but in fact it does reduce suicide, because suicide is often an histrionic and impulsive response which loses its appeal if there are minor hassles involved. I'd guess most mass shootings are similar. Not many mass shooters could be arsed taking a 20 week bomb building course. I really think America's obsession with guns is down to a weird shitebagness, on average they seem to fear criminals to an extent that it is completely out of kilter with reality.

  27. The videos are just horrendous. Carnage. It defies belief that people can go into places and buy these weapons. 500 people injured is almost as terrible as the number of people killed. These types of guns are for killing as many people as you can as quickly as you can, i.e for warfare. Not hunting elk or protecting yourself in the unlikely event of a robbery or burglary. How the f**k can the NRA and the rest of the opponents of gun control justify owning these?

  32. Indeed. The great irony is that several million Americans have lamented the very notion of gun control as they 'keep us safe'. What safety does a holstered pistol provide against a madman with an automatic weapon and clear shots from an elevated position at a distance of several hundred metres? Without irony, someone on snapchat posted a photo of her leaving Vegas in the immediate aftermath with the caption 'I feel so unsafe, I wish I had brought my gun' and it just makes you despair that some people will never, ever get it.

  36. I think I wrote earlier that with the current team set up we'd been getting away with it a bit, and so it proved on Saturday. The midfield balance is all wrong, and we'll be significantly weaker if we can't get Robertson back into midfield sharpish. There is some mitigating circumstances, neither of Saturday's central mids had much game time before the Ayr game, and Herron really didn't have a pre-season to get up to match fitness, but allowing for that neither guy is managing to fill in for the absent Robertson or departed Callachan, and it's really starting to show. Robertson is the key, sitting deeper and recycling the ball, without him in there, to often the ball bypasses midfield entirely with hopeful punts over the full back's head, and hoping one of the forwards does something. Callachan also gave us a real dynamic presence in there, and he was good at pressuring defenders far up the pitch and recycling the ball in forward areas, that just allowed our forwards a bit more space to play in than they do currently. Matthews I think is actually a technically better player than Callachan, but is being used to sit more, when actually I think he'd be better off further forward. Herron is one of those typical lower league midfielders, tidy on the ball but passive with it. Also, with teams playing more 3 man midfields against us our midfield has to be in pretty top form all the time - I'd be tempted, If Robertson were available for Arbroath, to go for a lop-sided 4-4-2, drop one of the forwards for a more traditional two man forward line and play Barr as a winger on one side and Matthews out wide on the other, tucking in to make 3 in the middle with him, Herron and Robertson. Might give us a bit more of a solid platform to build from, at least to start with, and at least until Matthews and Herron can figure out how to play together.

  41. Well, no, not really. If it comes to that, it will take another legitimate referendum to do that. If the Spanish government had any sense, they'd have let the referendum go ahead and just ignored the results, given the illegality of it. Instead, they recognised it and gave the voters a kicking, and now it's an awful lot harder to simply ignore, even if virtually every no voter stayed away.

This is all happening in the same week that Rajoy called for further EU sanctions against Venezuela due to the arrest and imprisonment of political opponents, politicisation of the judiciary and police violence against protestors. The Spanish government characterises this as evidence of Venezuela 'sliding towards dictatorship'. If any Falangist apologists would care to explain how exactly Spain isn't guilty of all of the above, I'm all ears.
