Re: Netflix Recommendations

The Confession Tapes are pretty good. It's about crimes committed in the US where police have used questionable tactics to extract confessions from people, but where it's far from clear-cut that the offender actually did anything at all. It's a documentary and uses recordings and footage from real ...

Re: The Message of Hate Thread

Not had a positive experience with any I've come across. And here lies the whole point. You're not exactly likely to cross paths with quiet, decent people who stay out of your way are you? Whereas loudmouthed arseholes are probably going to make themselves seen. To Hjl, I've had experience with ass...

Re: The Message of Hate Thread

I'm with TSI on this one. Using your experiences with some assholes as an excuse to redefine "traveller" as "thieving pikey scum" and "jippo"? Really? The Chinese whispers that fly around about what gypsies do with their time, and the eagerness with which people seem to enjoy sharing them is more th...

Re: The Message of Hate Thread

Do you pay in bulk for each module btw? Do you know if its easy to switch to paying monthly or something instead? Not easy to fork out a bulk of several thousand on this every year so I've ended up leaving a pretty long interval between two of my years. It's looking like I'll finish within a 9 year...

Re: The Message of Hate Thread

<laugh> WHAT If you are submitting your assignment online, you should ensure that you submit well before midday (UK local time) on the cut-off date in case you experience technical problems. However, there is a 12-hour grace period so any TMAs received before midnight on the cutoff date will still ...

Re: Vučkić's Video Shop

Just watched Phantom Thread and it was excellent. One of DDL's best performances, creeping and subtle. The actor, director, composer combo that made There Will Be Blood have produced gold again here.

I've been writing for absolutely hours and my word count has gone up by about 100 <laugh> <wah> <laugh> <neg> this is why I hate people saying essays shorter than 3k words are a piece of piss.

Re: The Message of Hate Thread

Same. Sometimes I start right away, do about 10% of the work, then stop for weeks and convince myself that that 10% is basically like 90% so there's no need to do anything more till last minute <laugh>. You're with the OU as well right? Yeah, doing it part-time so I'm onto my third year of six. Thi...

Re: Breaking Bad

Just finished season four and I'm pretty sure my blood pressure is breaking records. I'm gonna have to convert to Buddhism to reclaim the years of my life that have been shaved away by the relentless heart-attack inducing intensity. Totally worth it though.
