Spain versus Portugal and a cold beer. That’ll do. Also, they have fans in the ground. Not many, but some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted October 7, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted October 7, 2020 My answer to this question, which would be - a smattering of German and the bit of French in the song “Michelle”, probably doesn’t quite have the same anecdotal power that Werner’s answer has - 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Brumerican Posted October 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 9, 2020 The one part of redundancy I am enjoying is that October is our annual sales month. Now I don't have to pretend that selling chipboard cabinets is somehow important . God I hope Travis Perkins go bust. After watching The Social Dilemma I also deleted Facebook completely today and I immediately felt an incredible sense of relief. 40 years of friendships and memories shitcanned in 5 minutes. Superb. Should have done it years ago. I use twitter as a search engine but other than that VT is my only social media "presence" now and whilst I wouldn't say that makes me happy it doesn't make me suicidal which is a win AFAIC.

UTV I tried to delete a load of old Facebook history and it’s really quite difficult. Facebook collects all different kinds of data in all different places and you have to do it all manually. I thought I’d deleted all comments, likes, reactions, video watched history etc up to about 2 years ago but it still keeps showing me “memories“ of my posts from 7/8/9 years ago. They should be gone I probably should nuke the account completely. Is there a way to wipe everything in 1 go and just retain the friend list?

I saved the pics i wanted then deleted everything manually. ( I have time in abundance and don't actually sleep more than an hour a day ) I Gave my phone number to my siblings and then deleted the account rather than deactivating. It says there is a 30 day period where you can come back but I guarantee I won't be . It became a chore and something I "had" to check when it reality all the best times in my life were before facebook . After having watched The Social Dilemma it's obvious we are being socially engineered into an Orwellian nightmare . I can't stop what's coming but I sure as hell won't be playing a part in it.

Brumerican Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 I should also get my first ever taste of Universal Credits in a few weeks . I've already got my eye on a nice Lacoste tracksuit. Won't be long before I'm speaking the lingo of the bellend. "Scenes" "Limbs" "You love to see it" "Levels" "Standard" That sort of thing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't drink and haven't been in a pub since 2018 but I do intend to buy some hydroponics and a staffy. I did like their breakfasts mind you before i gave up meat. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
