The Brexit Thread

Mods, can we change Openside's name to "Someone's Grandad on Facebook"? TIA

Imagine my surprise another pompous smug post from computer gaming boy

Nothing screams pompous and smug like a joke. Poor little snowflake

3 billion people play videogames, by the way. Might as well have a pop at me for watching TV.

It was a bizarre sneer - ‘you must be one of those ruffians who hangs around those video arcades !’. He is wonderfully behind the times.

He also plays bridge, which is the most boring old fart pastime imaginable.

Food companies often have some very weird ideas on what products will look like in 10-15 years, and those often feature chocolate

I've had a cheese from Norway that is brown and tastes of caramel. Tasted slightly cheesy but far too sweet

I can enjoy a Red Leicester which is aged and has some caramel notes, but actually tastes of caramel seems OTT

Cheeses
Gamers
Car Parks

This thread has it all

[Hal Jordan]

I hate Wensleydale and all. Wallace can get stuffed.

But if you really want to annoy me, serve me a cheese that's supposed to be soft but hasn't natured and so is crumbly. Hanging offence as far as I am concerned.

3 billion people play computer games? Half the world population give or take Where are you getting that stat from.? I expect you are including phone apps

Seems to me you can give it but you can’t take it, besides the irony of being called a snowflake by an SWJ like you is delicious!

Only 3 million people watch TV? Who knew?

"Taking it" from you is like being savaged by a duck. You can't even read numbers properly, let alone give me any proper grief. Or spell "SJW", as it happens.

Truly you're doing wonderful work proving me wrong here. Perhaps try again tomorrow? At your age the sherry hits hard and you'll need a good night's sleep.

The world pop is approx 7 billion so 3 billion is half (give or take) - classy suggesting I am pissed I thought accusations of alcohol problems was a bored no no? Haven’t you got a macho single shooter game you should be rubbing one out to whilst pretending you are a hero? Besides if you have got Yeeb defending the gaming fraternity you are in all sorts of trouble.

[Biffer]

World population is nearer 8 billion now grandad.

[Openside]

Well that is encouraging news it means that only slightly more than a third rather than half the population are complete saps

Suggesting you have a sherry before bed and that's the reason you fucked up constantly isn't quite the same as saying you're an alcoholic. You still can't spell "SJW" even post-edit, which is embarrassing.

On games: https://screenrant.com/how-many-people- ... -dfc-2020/ - turns out, human beings of all ages enjoy games. Video games. Board games. Sports(!). Anyone screaming at an adult for playing videogames is stuck in the 1980s. Which neatly helps the point I'm making about Someone's Facebook Grandad over here. It's not just Brexit you're desperately wrong about!

[dpedin]

40% onto 23% of the milk supply would be an overall increase in cost of about 9% for milk. However, I'm not sure how much of the UK supply comes from NI, and if that might distort things either way.

Maybe we should just ask British cows to step up and work harder post Brexit? Surely the ayrshire, highland, aberdeen angus and the jerseys are loyal, dedicated British cows and will hear the clarion call? However I have always had my doubts about Simmental cows, look a bit foreign to me!

Nah, Ayrshire, Highland and Aberdeen Angus are perfidious Scots deliberately undermining the union and Jerseys are tax dodging bastards getting fat on the labour of others.

Ha ha ha ha! Is there a true blue Farage cow then, and I don't mean Anne Widdicome.

I didn’t bother, besides you know what I meant so it’s just you being pathetically nit picky. You started with the insults (as per). I have no issue with board games, cards, sports I just think these video games are rubbish and promote a whole generation of screen addicted wannabes. The fact that are enjoyed by ‘all ages’ just means being a sap isn’t the preserve of the idle yoof. Happy to be stuck in the 80’s as I am not to keen on society now. Have a good day.

Oh and who is screaming?

[JM2K6]

Bye Grandad!

[Yeeb]

Orangeside, Point of order, I am not ‘defending the gaming fraternity’ (it’s very much a female pastime too which if you were not woefully Victorian you would know) as such, just mocking you for mocking jmk in an extremely old fashioned way - like he says, may as well mock him for having a new fangled television or listening to music on the gramophone.

Normally I mock him to shit, but I am 100% behind him on this (oo err) and are showing yourself up here as more old fashioned than my dad who popped it last year aged 85, he enjoyed a few strategy games like civilisation and total war games, the doddery old dead cunt.

[Yeeb]

Even the term ‘video games’ is decades out of use, died out with the word ‘video’
It’s games, or gaming - just as social as a normal board games around a table and have been for 20 plus years ever since multiplaying or internet play really got going.

[yermum]

Old Man shouts at cloud...

I enjoy gaming PC, board, chess, cards, go... I even enjoy a game of bridge. I mainly play online though.

[Paddington Bear]

Online multiplayer games has been a great way of keeping in touch with my mates this year.

[frodder]

Can we please get this thread back on topic i.e. cheese

[Openside]

Bye Grandad!

Is grandad supposed to be an insult? Or is it just people who have found someone voluntarily prepared to have sex with them that offend you??

Good point - you will be surprised to hear that I have no truck with these smelly cheeses from the continent I also don’t do blue, not cheese or film.

Unsurprisingly, given your age, you've forgotten the joke I made way back in the mists of time (yesterday) that caused you so much pain and made you lash out and insult me, thus kicking this hilarious tangent off.

Jeez you really think you are something special, the only reason I asked is because it was the second time in two days you had used it (I assume as an insult). You put the boot in first I never resort to insulting people on here unless they start it (other then the likes of muttonbirds etc as he is just a total mong). Sorry you didn't take my 'gamer boy' as the joke it obviously was...

[Yeeb]

He started it
No you did

That’s you that is

Third time. Don't you remember how all this started? I cracked a joke about you being someone's facebook grandad in response to someone parodying your reactionary views and you yelled at me for being pompous and smug. So... I make a joke, you insult me. And then a day later, having forgotten how all this works, you reckon YOU made a joke and that I insulted you for it.

Is everything OK?

I wonder if and how Unilever will try to get some more money out of marmite by blaming brexit. It’s made in Burton on Trent, mostly from the by product of the brewing industry. Less than 5 % is exported, and the machinery to make it is also uk. The jars, labels and tubes I’m uncertain of.

When they still owned the Mayo factory in Purfleet, they tried using brexit and fx movements of a weakening pound to push price rises onto consumers - sadly the Tesco ceo was ex Unilever and knew that factory well and that 60% of the cost of goods there was the labour, so in fact it had got relatively cheaper for them to make it in uk than in one of their European plants, he told Unilever to gtfo.

At an internal meeting, a senior bod told 600 of us with a straight face that Unilever could only hedge currency movements 6 months in advance, that’s why they had to make uk redundancies. 599 people in that room believed him.
