Paid Members Daaaaaad! Posted December 19, 2015 Paid Members Posted December 19, 2015 Doubt I'd try that after seeing that video where someone pours Coke onto Pork and all those maggoty things come out. Isn't that fake? In fact, isn't that just to set up a jump scare? Quote
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted December 20, 2015 Paid Members Posted December 20, 2015 TIL that not having anything to do with social media is brilliant and has been a really good thing for me. Ok, so I make the odd post on here from time-to-time but I closed my Facebook and Twitter accounts down 6 weeks ago and I genuinely believe it's changed me for the better. As a person, I'm really easily irritated. I've found, that as I've gotten older, more and more stuff winds me up. Things people say, the way they say them, attention seeking posts on FB and Twitter, ignorant and stupid people sharing anything because they believe it to be true, the list goes on and on. The best thing i ever did was unfollow everyone on facebook. I didnt delete because its too good for music, sports, news in general. I don't see anyone else's shit it's just an actual news feed for me now and it's awesome. Quote
Paid Members PunkStep Posted December 20, 2015 Paid Members Posted December 20, 2015 You could just use Twitter for that though Ebb, couldn't you? I'm just weighing up my options because Facebook is fucking awful and I'm waiting for all my excuses to keep it to finally diminish. Facebook is for bored mothers these days. Quote
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted December 20, 2015 Paid Members Posted December 20, 2015 (edited) I still use twitter for the same kind of thing. I just use facebook as a news source rather than trying to see what every fucker is upto. I still have friends on there i just dont see anything they post unless i go looking for it. Try it PunkStep, just click unfollow on all the people who clog up your news feed and just follow things you're interested in. Edited December 20, 2015 by Ebb Quote
Paid Members Thunderplex Posted December 20, 2015 Paid Members Posted December 20, 2015 Jimmy Hills dead. Surprised me as I thought he'd died a few years ago. Quote
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted December 20, 2015 Moderators Posted December 20, 2015 (edited) I use Facebook in pretty much the same way as Ebb, and I find it a lot better than Twitter, punkstep. I do keep real people on there as well though, just very few. Edited December 20, 2015 by Chest Rockwell Quote
Paid Members Sergio Mendacious Posted December 22, 2015 Paid Members Posted December 22, 2015 Today I learned that Kenny "R2D2" Baker is 81. I've no idea where it came from, or if it's just urban mythery, but I was really surprised that a dwarf would live to that age. Billy Barty lived to his mid 70s, and Angelo Rossito (the "Master" part of the Master Blaster) made it to 83. Comical Billy Barty reference: While the program is relatively obscure outside of Southern California, it is known for the court case that followed the following year. In 1990, Barty was sued in small claims court by two of the writers of Short Ribbs, producer and writer William Winckler, and writer Warren Taylor. Winckler and Taylor filed separate lawsuits against Barty for money owed, and Barty lost both cases. Quote

WyattSheepMask Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 I learned that the little button thing on iphone headphones rather than just being used for pause can skip forward through tracks if you press it two or three times Quote
Paid Members PunkStep Posted December 28, 2015 Paid Members Posted December 28, 2015 Same with Beats, although the function is temperamental as hell. Quote
Paid Members Tommy! Posted December 28, 2015 Paid Members Posted December 28, 2015 (edited) The 111 service isn't massively user-friendly. They also need a name and address, "cuz computer says", but are quite happy with any clearly made up old wankshaft. Edited December 28, 2015 by Tommy! Quote

gbacon85 Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 TIL Sport journalist Oliver Holt is the son of Eileen Derbyshire (Emily Bishop of Corrie) NO FUCKING WAY...That is the best thing I have learned in ages. Mind blown Quote
Paid Members PunkStep Posted December 29, 2015 Paid Members Posted December 29, 2015 That's brilliant, never knew that. Don't like him, what with his ridiculous Alice band. Grow up, you prick. You're like 50 years old. Quote
