  1. Stats are stats. And of course individual cases are the exception which prove the rule. Many effects on personality are not conscious, they are subconscious. I hospitalised one of my elder brothers. He was giving me grief and stole something from me. I warned him to give me it back or I would stab him. He refused so I followed through. Result a very bloody brother and a good hiding from the old man lol And of course I would compete to the death in sport with my brothers. But when my dad was away for a while if there were any household problems I was more than happy to let my older broth
  2. This has morphed into an interesting thread. If I were honest with myself I've never liked being in charge. I like being high up in the pecking order but not top man. I've never liked responsibility,I'd rather be hidden in the pack. When I was a boss man I was aware I was a bit weak with guys I employed. I was too willing to accept excuses and forgive lies. The education system is not a good preparation for leadership. Too much shut up and be quiet and undermining of confidence. I also think being a younger brother has an effect on personality. You are conditioned to
  3. Clickbait. Only joking. We've had every other cross suggested, including honey badger/greyhound so I thought I'd see how many 'hits' this topic gets. Lol
  4. Has anybody ever spoken to Dave Platt? Or should I say listened to Dave Platt? its an education....of sorts.
  5. True. Self respect is a stranger to those people. Horrible.
  6. No problem with Stiff...Good lad. But the Sandhurst Eton lot, don't get me going.
  7. We are winning ugly. But we are winning.
  8. I bet he's an overpromoted public school boy whose confidence does not match his competence. Sorry, I must not let the chip on my shoulder show I must not let the chip on my shoulder show x50 lol I wonder how many needless british squaddie massacres were dreamed up on Eton's cricket fields. PS I did play cricket against a team of chaps, some from Eton. Jesus they can play. Made us look like children. Bet they wouldn't play us at football or put a team of boxers up against us though. Sorry I must not....ad nauseum.
  9. Southgate best manager since Alf. Swiss committing mass hari kari on their little red knives. Black lads did us proud, no offence Wilf.
  10. K'nell Dido, Baldrick has had better jobs than you. You possess a lot of dark resentment You need to develop,a more left wing, 'I'm as good as anybody' outlook. I'll send you a Starmer party correspondence course on self esteem.
  11. Hang 8n to your hanging cork hat cobber. Black neck is joking.
  12. I am opposed to mass immigration. Especially Yorkshire men escaping from their borders. I have already contacted the British genetic purity Council and suggested a wall be built around Yorkshire. We should make Yorkshire pay for it. Contamination of non Yorkshire genes and the resultant dumbing down of mutant children needs to be halted in its tracks. Or we could forcibly castrate white rose men. I have already volunteered for that job.
  13. I felt the world had been lifted off my shoulders when me and the Mrs got our pensions. First time in our lives we were free. Brilliant feeling still.
  14. Who says? Platt? What's hes selling? Pups! Any lurcher with half greyhound in it will chase and some will be crackers. But he's not breeding proven dog to proven dog. Be great to import some straws/staghounds from Oz and America and introduce some genuine working blood into the deer/ greys we have over here. Nice project for some of you younger fellas.
  15. Yes I've always been interested in how some leaders get the best out of people and some the worst. I think it's mostly down to the confidence, natural authority competence and decency of the boss. Rare commodities. I've worked with bosses who were totally incompetent and overbearing who I was always at war with and others who you didn't mind going the extra mile for. I've always got on better with bosses who came from the shop floor and worst with those with a business degree or personnel management qualification. Imo you can't teach leadership or decency, it has to be a natural,pa
  16. I used to work in a textile mill where conditions were literally victorian. Temperatures were regularly in the 90s, there were rats and mice everywhere and there was an earth toilet! There was a bloke who was a terrible creep to the owner. When we were slack and waiting for work he would...wait for it, wash the owners car! On another occasion the boss got his hands dirty, ( a rare event) and creepy Joe insisted the he wipe his hands on the back of his overalls ffs. Most of us ignored him, some sent him to Coventry. He used to excuse his behaviour by saying he had a wife and kids, as though the
  17. If I had a spare 100k I would steer clear of the advice from THL community, you and me, cracker barrel philosophers, pundits, tyre kickers, chewers of fat and thumb_ on_ forked_ stick leaners.
  18. AJ and Dubois are both bottlers. Aj against Ruiz and Dubois against Usyk. Both could have continued. So either could quit and either could spark the other. Dont think it will be a long fight. I think Dubois is easier to hit?
  19. What is about men and geekiness?. I have a mate who collects bricks ! When I'm walking along the shoreline I often come across bricks swept along and beached on the strong tidal currents. I take them to him and he can't thank me enough. Some are eroded by years being tossed around in the sea, but he can still their make out where they were made. Funny enough, when I look at this collection and he tells me where they were originated from , it is interesting. I'll get my coat.
  20. A good move to take a milk round and a paper round just before Xmas. You were suddenly rich with the amount of tips you received.lol
  21. It helps if you are you are pervert.
