Other Post So, how was your day?

[downsizer]

Going to watch The Hundred cricket at Trent Bridge today....I've not been to this format before and I have to say I'm skeptical about it....probably be too many young people and too loud..!

Had my 21st Wedding Anniversary on the 2nd August, very quite day due to me suffering from a severe inflammation of the inner ear Vertigo I think its clinically called, so no dinner in a fancy restaurant with the good lady wife, but hopefully I will remedy that on Aug 11th my birthday.

Oi, @Jake84, it's time to bitch about the weather again.

35°C (95°F) and a dew point of 26°C. And that's "only" 75% humidity. Yeah, F*** that.

And you guys have it even worse across the Rhine, haven't you.

 

[Jake84]

We got a warm 37c yesterday afternoon while we had to move out some furnitures out of my flat. On the upside and thanks to this good buddy we successfully did it, on the downside I didn’t sleep much because of the hot dew point.

Bit hard for me to complain about it however, as the sun was MIA in Western Europe since last summer.

There are people mad at me online because I said that I would vote no on proposition 478, which would increase taxes for my town.

So far everything that was raged at me was all fallacies. I counted 16 so far: Appeals to emotion, straw men, whataboutism, laws of averages, appeals to the unknown, appeals to ignorance, appeals to religion (Ya, I know just WTF, lol), sunk costs for suggesting several useless things that could fund what they want to fund, personal attacks, appeals to authority, genetic fallacy. slippery slopes was the most used, FYI, hasty generalization, and not surprised to see the circular reasoning by those thinking that they were being clever.

I am not the sharpest person here. However I know facts from fiction and is an opinion based on feelings and what is a fact made from logic. I even gave them chances to redeem themselves and present an actual argument devoid of feelings, nothing. That's what I thought, imagine that. Cowards.

They can pound sand and go back to CA, what they voted for got them to leave and only the obtuse would be okay with it. My neighbors are struggling with a killer inflation because of Brandon and they want us to vote for more money taken away, lol right.

Watching Shallow Grave while drinking a Belgian Blonde. A decent enough afternoon.

Missus just asked if this movie was before or after Trainspotting re: Ewan McGregor. The answer is simple enough with a search engine but I still wanted to scratch my head and try to remember it myself…

Spent the last few hours sorting through boxes of paperwork and photos (needed doing )

Found these blasts from the past

1984 - Dempsey Barracks , Germany - 39 Heavy Regiment RA

Unsure of year here but it was a Royal Salute using 25 pounder guns in York
I am sat firing the gun in the background

This may have been 83 or 84 but it was in Paderborn town centre, Germany
Me on the left , an American colleague Centre and a British buddy far right.

Brought back some fond memories

 

[Jake84]

Good photos and full of memories I’m sure A.

Now that you did it, I found a couple of photos here too, from 2002.

I was a Marsouin, and we visited the Troupes de Marine museum in Frejus, southern France.

I’m on the top left corner of the photo:

Still in or around the Frejus region, campfire and sleeping in this old crappy building in the background, I took this one so I’m not on it.

Cool pics @Jake84

So I decided to put a reservation for a pre selling lot and house today… adulting is hard. Still tempted to call it off and get me a used land cruiser and maybe a speed boat. Then just live off in Jake’s garage in my dying years.

How much did the Sergeant Major enjoy the length of your hair, you horrible hippy?

I'm guessing a little expensive? Over near Santa Rosa? I used to have a gf in Cabuyao before I realised it was not a good thing and before I met my wonderful asawa ko
Selling your arse on only fans? Sorry mate you will starve to death

First off… i feel attacked. My hairy ass picts, is kinda like Durian, its more of an aquired taste.

Yeah the place is in between Santa Rosa and Manila. With the new expressways being built, land prices are sky rocketing and that area is getting built up fast. Who knew the National Police’s body dumping ground would be prime property.

So a GF in manila and a wife in Davao… you a pilot by any chance lol

 

[Jake84]

Worse: a bloody cop.

Depends how he rocks the mustache and police unform that’s always one size too small that you see in American cops

Oh and the place isnt uber expensive, more like a middle class neighborhood, trust me I made a wrong turn today into another neighborhood and I felt poor enough that I was close to making a manifesto on the class struggle and the inequalities of the country.

 

[Jake84]

Oh, we’re headed that way in Europe too, Jim. The middle class is slowly but surely vanishing, the poor are getting poorer and the rich wealthier.

Time to maybe dust off those Guillotine?

Bit opposite here where 2 decades ago we had virtually no middle class, so far the middle class is now increasing. I just want to elliminate those richer than me so I can be on top. In a way I'm Soviet as fu....

Lil history, the Philippines did an Aregentina type of economic fudge ups, before Aregntina made it cool

It takes a lot of money to buy the fbi and intel and steal elections, someone had to pay them in obummers 8 years.
