I for one appreciate the use of the word 'nebulous' outside of Star Trek .

We had to set some rules for the data that we spit out for our clients. The first and most important one got christened 'the prime directive'.

I was the only person who had no idea where that came from.

It's going to make zero difference to the election, but the NYTimes has a really impressive piece on the sprawling swap of corruption Trump wallows in: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/...ies-swamp.html

[Raoul Duke III]

Donnie drifting quite appreciably in the last 36 hours. Now 3.35 on BF with Biden 1.4.

Signs the GOP are giving up on him too. Could be quite the enjoyable run-in over the next three weeks as the Trump implosion goes nuclear. He was never going to go quietly was he....

[Strewelpeter]

Starting to feel a little optimistic but the stakes are so high and the electorate so incredibly dumb that I won't relax until the inauguration is done and dusted.

Do people believe that he actually has beaten covid or have things not been quite as they have been presented over the last week?

[Lazare]

For anyone with Play Music or Spotify, listen to a track called 'Let me let you down' by The Teskey Brothers.

Don't Google them, don't look for it on YouTube, play it, enjoy it, then Google them.

Been listening to that track for the last week or two. Got around to googling them last night and my head asploded.

Well, he's off to Florida for a super-spreader event rally tomorrow.

Best mates daughter (21) tested positive , both he and the mrs have flu like symptoms getting tested tomorrow. Reckons theyre over the worst of it but they're only symptomatic since Friday. From what I have read it can deteriorate rapidly though and that often happens after the first week when people think they're grand.

[Denny Crane]

He seems to be having a busier more energetic schedule post covid than Sleepy Joe ever had.

Yes, he's really turning things around.

ICU beds in use and regular beds in use - protecting capacity in hospitals was why we flattened the curve in the first place.

The number of patients with Covid-19 in intensive care has increased by half in the space of a week.

There were 30 virus patients in ICU this morning, according to the Government’s data hub, down one from yesterday but up 10 on a week ago.

Hospitalisations are up 80 per cent over the past week, to 221 this morning from 120 a week ago.

Where are you based? Have a good pal based out of Roundwood looking for regular work. He does more gardening than online stuff so his sites etc haven't been updated in years - https://www.facebook.com/heartandsoil/

Ah the good ol days when parody was parody..

I heard Trump wanted to wear a superman vest under his shirt and reveal it on the White House balcony. Imagine the flood of sperm in Dennys trousers . Insert South Park pic.

Surely just missing the e?

[ComradeCollie]

Could be the past tense of string: 'I strang him up in the basement, before raping , killing, and having him for dinner'.

That is oddly very specific CC 

[DeadParrot]

Brilliant!

Theres no house pricing model that could tell you the true value of a house to within 4k, so the problem there might be more your excessive confidence in your pricing model than your wife's bidding prowess.

The manner and timing of the calls and that the other bidder dropped out at a nice round number exactly would lead me to suspicion.
My Mrs treated it like an ebay auction instead of waiting for them to call her. Still 4k is paltry for happiness. (now, the near 7k on stamp duty, solicitors, valuations, reports etc etc is another story )

[Raoul Duke III]

Grouped with 'gang', 'pang' etc

No, somebody (an educator) thinks it's a real word. Although I've had few illusions since the day the teacher had to use a calculator to add 30+36.

[DeadParrot]

CC's Wild Bill-esque usage is corect.
It's the past tense of string.

Though you would be wise not to pay too much attention to the doofus who cannot spell correct correctly

[Tar.Aldarion]

That's strung in general, strang is a dialectal synonym .

I always get a chuckle out of those kind of stories where it's reported that an anon source said that Trump did something mad and entirely unverifiable.

[Keane]

I'm going to try and shop local (so far as possible) for Christmas gifts this year, so if anyone has come across any decent websites with Irish made stuff that they would recommend I'd appreciate hearing about it.

I've mentioned this crowd https://www.carveon.com/ before that do nice leather stuff that might be of interest for instance

In fairness, these last few weeks have had plenty of verifiable examples of Trump doing something mad.

Do you chuckle at any of the verified facts. Just as bizarre .

[Denny Crane]

Ah no doubt, there's no need to make any up. I just wonder where the source was when he did his surprise visit outside the hospital. The WH news pool were in uproar that no one had told them.

He's off a tour of actively encouraging his supporters to catch covid. Clearly hasn't dawned on him that this is a losing play.

That is bizarre why do they try so hard to make it difficult for people to vote?

Only in certain districts.

A girl I train with has a store in Waterford city that only stocks Irish made products: https://www.bebhinn.ie/

She has some really nice merino knitwear, fantastic quality stuff. I bought the wife(sounds weird) some pieces as a wedding gift.

Even if you drop her a message on FB/Instagram she'll get back to you if you have any questions.

Brave man buying the wife clothes .

I have never done this (well at least being told exactly what I am buying) and the mere suggestion would be greeted with incredulity. You must be one of them metrosexual lads.

This post just proves how far behind the times you actually are.

The current sign of metrosexuality is not a willingness to purchase clothes for your partner, it's a willingness to wear them too.

This was actually a bit of a Homer & Marge Simpson bowling ball situation.
I bought her a hat and scarf knowing that she'll get fed up of them soon and then they're mine.

[Raoul Duke III]

In addition to not knowing anything about the current state of female fashion, I am also colour blind. This induces a certain scepticism in females as to my knowledge in this area.

I usually try to cover it up by using random adjectives - "that's a very flamboyant dress", "well now, that's an audacious skirt" etc
