Things We Hate

[SALTIRE]

Watching a US stream of the Copa and on the break Beckham appears in an ad and tries to mumble in Spanish...

 

[epic73]

Anyway, back on topic - nose bleeds. Three times I woke up last night with one, taking the piss now.

I often wake up in the early morning with a nosebleed or crusted blood around my nose, it isn't serious to my knowledge. Unless it's consistently happening multiple times a night.

The lack of football on today.

Agreed, i like watching football matches on Sunday lunch with a few pints of farmhouse cider in my local

Numbers after names. Davis Love III etc. Pretentious shite.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Fuck you, Elizabeth II, and Henry I-VIII, and all the rest of you fuckers!

 

[Pagnell]

I'm no fan of royalty but they're exempt, as the number allows for easier identification through the years. But some Joe Bloggs who decides to give his son the same name as he's got and then stick a Roman numeral after it isn't. It seems to be far more prevalent in America for some reason.

In all fairness to Henry I he was probably just known as Henry

 

[JaseTheVillain]

But he is now known as Henry I. So the criteria applies.

His parents weren't being pretentious though, they were just like 'Henry' then he became Henry I so the pretentiousness of Henry I is not really applicable in this case. I feel it is a defamation of his name and parents character to tag it in with other pretentious names when the number was given to him by others at a later date.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Not sure I can defame someone who died 900 years ago tbf.

What a pretentiously pretentious post.

You'll be hearing from his lawyers, John & Sons (ironically called John II & John III).

Tim Peake.

Not Tim Peake per se, but definitely the media (well, the BBC) jizzathon surrounding everything the guy did, said, thought, smelt, tasted and farted during his time in space.

Space? You mean you believe that? He was in a bunker somewhere with a TV studio fuelling the Western Agenda that we're better than the Ruskies.

You're so naive.

By going up and back on a Soyuz?

Fuck

My right ankle. Everytime I try to run it just ache's and ache's, it feels like it is on fire.

Going to get proper running shoes with inserts as well as compression socks to see whether that sorts it, I hope so.

Not quite as catchy as the Will Grigg version.

Easily fixed, just stop running.

Yeah thats what I mean really, I can never dislike a man of science who is striving to further our knowledge of nature; but the media coverage of it is incredibly nauseating, they were never interested in the ISS until he went up there and they are making him appear as a pioneer when he's just another astronaut/scientist running tests and experiments that many others have been doing up there for many years now.

it turns automatically from jr. to II when the sr. has died.

but yeah, i am also not a fan of giving your son the same first name

 

[Pagnell]

If something happens automatically, it's been set by someone to do that. Either way it's bollocks.

BTW, where does it happen automatically? Is this a multinational thing or is it a German thing? I wasn't aware that happened here.

I'm the third in my line to share the same name as my father and grandfather and I don't call myself Saltire III (though that would be pretty awesome!). I am changing my middle name next year though as I've always hated it, and its a milestone birthday upcoming, and any son of mine will be called something new.

What's your middle name ?

 

[Pagnell]

Saltire Jeremy MacLeod of the clan MacLeod.

 

[Aber gas]

Oh, I thought it was going to be Marmaduke.

 

[SALTIRE]

What's your middle name ?

I won't say but it is associated with Catholicism as my grandfather's family were Glaswegian; and I've never wanted anything to do with religion in any guise. I kept it to keep my dad happy, but now he's popped his clogs I can do what I want!
