It's indicative of a caste with no class

it would sure make you wonder
why so many of them ponder

Enjoyed the half Little Fawn half Hazy IPA from White Hag last week. Was familiar with Little Fawn and the Hazy will be making its way into my basket in Stephens St news when i get back to work. Light enough that you could pound them and not feel like pure shite the next morning. Key when you have a near two year old in a state 'lockdown'.
Whiplash beers have always been my bag, especially their DIPAs but thankfully i can't get them online at the moment. I see they are selling through their own site and the Big Romance.
Their half Body Riddle Half Rollover will be happening.
Any codes Des???

Crack the egg and pour gently into an espresso cup, ramekin or similar. If you split the yoke, throw it out and go again.
Tip gently into hot oil.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that

There was this chancer called The Duke
His rightwing hero worship would make you puke
But when it came to child expense
That all went past tense
And he could quote a Trotsky line cut to suit

When you crack it in a edge you can break the protective layer around the yoke hence the spill.
Duvet?
Turn it inside out,
put on corners,
Grip middle in teeth,
let it fall into place,
shake
Ezy game

Enjoying all the poetry and Hitchs pop psychology lessons today
Apparently we're past the peak of ICU admissions and deaths for the first wave according to this: https://www.irishtimes.com/news/irel...23043?mode=amp
We were predicted to go beyond the ICU bed capacity but we'll be significantly under based on 500 beds opposed to 250 which it was originally modelled on, also predicts UK to suffer the worst in Europe in the first wave which is up till early August.

Actually the people who know most 'shout the loudest' (the darkest line), its just that those who know least also shout louder than they should - but not as loud as those who know a lot.
The dark line is perceived ability. Not how vocal people are. Assuming that everyone is only as vocal on a subject as their perceived ability is a bit of a blunder.
I think it’s likely to be shaped by environment. These people aren’t challenging known experts’ opinion. But on a platform such as facebook, surrounded by plebs, the overconfidence manifests. Surely we’ve all seen that happen.
Also, the study included more than one test. Here’s the another one. 2nd quartile rated their ability and performance higher than the top quartile.
I don't think either Dunning or Kruger are turning in their graves just yet...but mainly because neither has died.Last edited by Mellor; 07-04-20, 14:12.
