I see. You would prefer I posted it before United played last night and CHD made his comment yes?

I'm not sure how either word applies to be honest.

Best odds pre game

Bradford 28/1
Middlesbrough 10/1
Palace 5/1
Leicester 4/1

A €10 accum would have netted you €95,700

I had a score on it. Also can someone explain aftertiming to me, it seems to be a sin against god or something, much like same sex marriage.

UL Leicester. If you got a French team with nothing to play for then you are almost guaranteed the win plus 4 tries. Instead they get a stubborn bunch of Ulster men. And Ulster says NO.

Waaaay, but... Yous have kind of confirmed my point.

Ah its all banter football crap.

Watched Boro beat City with my die hard Boro supporting mate. As much as I'd like to say meh it's the FA cup the good side of it today was class. G'wan Bamford and Boro

It's embarrassing to be a united fan this season.

It's embarrassing to be a Chelsea fan today.

http://www.vice.com/read/a-whale-blasted-an-ungodly-amount-of-ass-ham-all-over-some-divers

A group of divers near the Caribbean island of Dominica were engulfed in a mighty cloud of shit churned out by a sperm whale. The men were on a routine expedition to photograph the whales when one of their subjects started blasting an ungodly amount of butt butter into the ocean while spinning in circles, causing what one of the divers called a "poonado." Showing no mercy, the beast didn't stop until a 100-foot-wide cloud of its Mississippi mud had coated the divers and their equipment.

In a show of unwavering dedication to his craft, Canadian photographer Keri Wilk managed to capture the experience on film. Some believe the torrent of rusty nuggets was a little known defense mechanism, triggered by the proximity of the divers. On the other hand, it could have just been a spastic, diarrheic beast—that's how little we understand about whales and their insane, magical shits.

[Tar.Aldarion]

Most believe in rebirth. Reincarnation is different as that has to do with souls transmigrating into different physical forms. Buddhism is against the idea of something essential and impermanent like a soul.

Rebirth would be far too complex to begin to describe as it requires some understanding of how Buddhism views the nature of reality more generally. But separateness of the self is considered an illusion of the mind. You may see a rising wave as separate from the sea, but then it crashes down back into the sea. Was it annihilated? Or was it just a trick of perception / conception to have seen it as a separate thing with an essence in the first place? Or when you take a lit candle and use it to light another one. Is it the same fire or different?

Now I have no interest at this point in time in an issue such as rebirth, and suspect that it is probably just a result of the Indian culture within which Buddhism was founded. And plenty of Buddhists in the West would not believe in it. Or it may be considered to be a metaphor for the ways in which we create our future selves by the choices we make in the present.

Either way it's not something you have to believe, and no Buddhist would mind one bit if you didn't believe it.



Most Buddhism in the East is devotional Buddhism in which people just go through motions of ritualistic stuff. Quite the same way most Christianity here is going to mass and then being a judgemental, intolerant person for every other hour of the week.

But by all means listen to a couple of the introductory talks if you had any interest in what it is. You can find the bad in anything. Actually, here's a story I enjoy by a Buddhist monk I like about that very thing:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kiu7iHzYQhQ

I've watched about 10 hours of this guy now dammit! He's brilliant.
I am listening now to his talk on speciesism http://www.diydharma.org/buddhist-at...hn-brahmavamso due to my own interests, and he is talking about an Irish convict that came to him, who worked as a slaughterer in prison, and the story of him changing.

I think I have to watch all his videos and read his books...

[wicklowp]

wonder did he cash out

[Flushdraw]

Saw that one earlier, but read that there wasn't a cashout option wherever he did it. I didn't think Boro were bigger than 10/1 either.

Not quite sure how you lay/punt against Bolton win and BTTS!

Yep

But if there's no cash out option, and you're currently sitting on £51k, it would be nice if you could lay some off, but i'm not sure how you'd go about doing it.

The one I have downloaded is 1:53:20 long (until credits start) and has no subs. Not sure how much would have been censored though. Are you getting mixed up with the Foxcatcher censored version doing the rounds?

If this Architect lad turns out to be guilty of Elaine O'Hara's murder I genuinely hope that he gets castrated and then tortured horribly in jail. Not because of the murder but for not having the balls to face up to what he did and forcing the girls father to give the evidence he did today.

Thought you were a bit more level headed m8.

Better idea. Pass on your values to your kids. Don't send them to a school that discriminates on the basis of religion. Stop feeding the trolls by going to their silly ceremonies just to please granny. Granny had her time. It's your time now.

I come from a catholic family. Said the rosary through May as a kid for example. Dawned on me at an early age what a crock it all was.

My kids are atheists and very comfortable with their beliefs. On the day of Charlie Hebdo, the 11 year old (most of his class making their confirmation this year) after listening to news on the way home from school on the radio, gets out of the car and says "I'm so glad we don't believe in any of that auld shite".

“Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.” Being anti-catholic is a very healthy disposition IMHO.

On the subect...

I liked your post, two thumbs up, then remembered that I've agreed to be my eldest nephews sponsor at his confirmation next month.

I detest church/mass/religion. Still, the nephew asked my sister (his mum) would I be his sponsor (cause he knows I'm deadly and his favourite Uncle) - it would seem a bit shit to knock him back on it at his tender age.

I'm dreading the service and all that shite, it's on Valentines day so at least I can make a hasty exit afterwards

I snap called when my sister asked, it's nice that he picked me for something he deems important and it's a big enough deal to him - it would feel wrong to knock him back on it.

His dad, granny and grandfather (none the full shilling) on that side would be very into it all.

In years to come, if he needs some spiritual guidance or if he asks about my beliefs (or if he asks me on the day ), I will tell him in no uncertain terms that I think it is a load of bollox to say the least (language adjusted depending on his age at the time, though I've heard him say worse).

I think I've made the right choice on it.

Edit to add: Better he have me in this position of potential influence than someone who will back up/confirm everything he already believes. I'm like a sleeper cell.

You chose to live in the sticks?
Then deny your kids the bumber pay day which is confirmation and communion so they are seen as different in school
I was jealous of one of my neighbours as kids his parents were Jehovahs witnesses
and english and he used be excused form our 3 or 4 hours of religion a week,
Used play cricket with him not seen him in 20 years.

I've long thought that a 'Take your kids to Disney world' breakaway group that happens to coincide with confirmation day would be a fine idea...

I haven't got kids of my own so one of our parental renegades here may need to make the first move?

They should have made the character a gay cripple genius then he would have been a cert

[Strewelpeter]

Thought you were a bit more level headed m8.

If he did it he should just man the fuck up and make a statement.
Making her father stand up in court and say the things he had to say is a special level of cruelty.

You have the right attitude on the Godparenting thing, just make sure you send them a present every year, forever.

Just watched Citizenfour. It's certainly the best thing I've watched around all the whistleblowing stuff. In many ways it is incredible just by sheer virtue of the kind of access it gives us as a vouyeur to the unfolding events. I can't think of another political event on anywhere near a similar kind of scale which has been captured in real time with such intimate access for posterity. It raises all sorts of interesting questions in your head. The bits in the hotel really capture the paranoia, dread and size of what they're doing. When he drops his guard Snowden comes across far more aware of his image than he likes to let on and certainly I felt he may have wanted the noterity despite his best efforts to claim completely the opposite.

SPOILER

The bit with the green umbrella, it is stuff like that which made me question his character slightly.

I was fully on the paranoia bangwagon when the fire alarm starts going off.

Have the new crowd taken over running the lottery yet?

If they have then they are already creaming it. The new TV show, apart from being a cringe fest only has 3 contestants and they seem to be giving out a lot less all round. Chance to win a million on the pyramid alright but I wonder what the actual odds of getting it are.

Also they are very slow in rolling out the checking machines in shops and the mobile site is down the last two months. I'd say a lot of tickets with small amounts of wins are being discarded. Then you have that awkward moment where you check your ticket at the counter and he tells you there is nothing on it and he goes to throw it in the bin but you ask for it back just in case.

Huge gap between us and Toulon. But yes, onwards. Poxed by the draw all the way so far (unlike Ulster or Munster).

[RichieM]

just heard that Conor murray neck injury is a lot worse than has been released and its very serious with a good chance of ending his career. Whatever way the disk is he will pretty much severe his spinal cord in a heavy collision which is fine in day to day life but a guarantee in rugby.

Has anyone else heard anything on it? I would rate the source as reliable but he is not murray spinal surgeon so who knows. He also recons that sexton has pretty serious damage and the last conclusion was a bleed and he will now get knocked out by pretty much anything for the rest of his career and might not make it back.

Fucker really messing with my Sunday

[V for Vendetta]

The English changes to the competition have worked. Having games 3 & 4 a week earlier have really hurt the pro 12 teams IMO. BUT at the highest level the English teams are too predictable. 4 teams in the quarters none in the semis is my prediction.

Munster or Glasgow or ulster would have offered more in a quarter final situation.

[V for Vendetta]

Of course but we've done nothing yet. Huge luck so far but that's life.

Toulon were lucky in their first Heineken cup win IMO but they didn't give a fuck and neither will I if it falls nicely for Leinster.
