Damn straight, blatant dive

[jam]

Superstarfreak, you probably just gotta buy bigger socks. Ive got one loose-ish pair that keep coming down and I think theyre smaller than all the others (which are fine). My others are tighter and are fine.
George socks maybe, they should be fine.

I decided to get up at 4am to watch Arsenal v Celtic

Eduardos penalty was a shocker, as if he wont get sanctioned by uefa for simulation?

the A-League brought in similar laws to the SPL when it comes to simulation

[soopster]

Eduardo did dive so blatantly, he even smiled as he got up haha!
What did annoy me was how those celtic players were treating denilson, he should have smacked him there and then lol

[Big J]

Who should have smacked who?

[pokey27]

Why do they call it "simulation"??? call it what it is ffs its called "Cheating"

What really pisses me off is postmen who don't take the package back to post office if I'm not home. He just left a note that I can collect it tomorrow from PO.
Have to wait till tomorrow.

[Big J]

Eh? You usually have to wait 24/48 hours here if your not in before you can go get it. Seems pretty standard.

[ez-1]

That's right. Still boiling.

Around here it seems to depend on the postman. My regular postman usually leaves me a note if i'm not at home to pick up the package(s) later on the same day they are being delivered. But any of the non-regular postmen leave me a note about the arrival of the package the next day, not the day of the original delivery day.

So most of the time i can pick up the packages the same day even if i haven't been at home when the postman first tried to deliver them.

[ez-1]

I've experienced something like that. Sometimes postie takes the package with him to see if there is someone home and then leaves a note. Sometimes they are just too lazy to haul it around as it's not going to fit in to the mail box anyways.
Most days I'm working from home or leave so late that postie has already knocked twice, but not today.
Well tomorrow then.
Maybe I'll find something nice from Juicy Sneakers that ease the pain.

We were talking about exams and shit earlier and it's fucking clear to me that they're dumbing them down.
I just, for the hell of it, took part of a current GCSE Physics paper.
Haven't been at school and studied Physics nor anything else for that matter for more than 20 years.
Just got 75% for the section I took on wavelengths and frequencies.
First of all I was amazed and a bit ed that some old fart like me could get 75% when I ain't done shit for 20 years.
But that soon subsided when I noticed that I'd been awarded a B for my 75% !
Sorry, but in my day, as I believe it should be, you needed 80% minimum to get a B and 90% to get an A.
I take it that the joke grade of A* is for 90% and above now ?
I'm gonna try and get hold of a complete Physics paper and sit it with no revision whatsoever and see how I stack up.

[DasBill]

you gonna set yourself coursework and little experiments too pure?

[mr.pure]

Fo' sho' !

I think we all know that the exam is the hard bit.

*Edit.
20 - 34% was an E !?!
Do me a favour.
That would've scraped you a G when GCSEs started.

[DasBill]

I wouldnt really worry about it too much P.
I know plenty of people who got As and A*s in GCSE and A level but got kicked out of uni cos they cant hack it.
They all come out in the wash in the end fella.
