I know enough about my roots to know I don't really care. People from mine and other ethnic backgrounds look at mule funny when I say I am English/British when asked where I am from. A debate about genealogy or some shit ensues. I shutdown the argument by saying one thing: "It doesn't matter if I am of Sri Lankan origin. That country is not my home. England is. Therefore I am English. You wouldn't debate if I was playing for the England football team. In fact if I scored a hat trick in the World Cup final every Dave would be wearing my name on the back of their shirts"

I'm just saying. Story sounds too clean. Sounds manufactured. Plenty of people misrepresent their lives on the Internet, you're not the only one. Im not black but... I'm not saying I would have bottled him. I'm not even saying I would have said anything because things escalate. Scuffles are not my thing because I have too much going for me that can be lost with a record BUT... I wouldn't lie about it for Internet accolades either way.

Yep action. The story sounds like the Internet edition. I.e. The edition you wished had happened.

If you don't respect each other then no one else will. Asians don't walk around calling eachother paki, whites don't call each other cracker. In the end by and large if you deride yourselves then everyone else will. Also I believe you sat there sipping your JD and Coke with a nervous smile and no action took place.

Played Rugby at school level. Nothing major. To be honest it opens doors for you with the middle classes if you are not from that background. I remember my graduate interviews with partners at firms they were interested in discussing that. White middle classes barely give a fuck about football, most of them see it as scum sport. Same for cricket and golf. business in he city is often done over a round of golf (which is one of the reasons I am inclined to learn).

Most of the managers I work with are cunts. All of the senior managers I work with a cunts. I have just became a manager. Need to decide whether I follow suit and become a c*nt also.

To be honest people shouldn't catch feelings over such terms as bounty or coconut. I am of Sri Lankan origin and been called it a few times. Firstly people cannot help the environment they were raised in. If someone grows up in Essex they will talk like the locals. My cousin grew up in Kenya and married a black woman, Tis normal. If I made some of the comments being made up in here, it would be considered racist/prejudiced and rightly so. I have been called a coconut a few times by various Sri Lankans. It genuinely doesn't bother me because it's a measure of their failings both in terms of ignorance and life. I was born and raised in Harlesden. Being relatively well spoken and intelligent and applying those means I have a good career going, a degree and other positive factors. The people usually making these comments are in sheg 20k or 30k roles approaching 30 years old. Or worse they are complete bums on a wage I could have got when I was 18 or JSA. I don't have time for these people. Let them do them.

Welbeck leaving should never have happened. LVG is treading on the Man Utd core like it was nothing. RVP and Kagawa also.

I think Memphis will do it big. Memphis will be better than hazard. Would bet money on that.

Not sure that is real. There are bare mock ups on the net. We'll see when we see I guess

The latest rumour. How much truth is there in this and would you rather see him that Di Maria. Personally I would rather keep DM.

I uninstalled and downgraded to a previous version. Keeping getting the prompt to update but yes I can now play through my TV again.

My situation is ongoing. I feel the madness building in me. I need some of that woosah shit to keep me calm. Someone at work who discussed this with told me not to give a shit. Let it overrun. Then do nothing to help when I am not Booked.

As funny as these posts are, mental health in the black community is a serious issue. Particularly with our young men. Think very carefully about the image and life that these men are sold on a daily basis through their limited outlets of the world. Griminal is probably just living up to the realisation that music isn't gonna pay him what he thinks he should earn. He sees people he was around from early making major paper and he isn't involved. He probably doesn't have a proper education so he can't go and get a decent job. It's f*cked for a lot of young black men, and tbh it makes me wonder HOW IT CAME TO BE SO. We don't help ourselves by wilfully living up to the stereotypes in some corners, but I also wonder why we are the only race afflicted (maybe Latinos in the US too) with the curse of defining ourselves by material wealth, to the point it eats us up inside. Sometimes I think that this was the bomb planted by the elites to destroy us, and yet we STILL buy into it. Are you black. I'm confused because you drop The N word more than anyone.

Captain Planet's response to this was accurate. Terrible email to send. You should have written it, edited it, slept on it, and never sent it. Probably right. But everyone has limits. After 3.5 years nearly, averaging 70 to 80 hours per week. I'm done. People know I am looking the leave and already the arse kissers are talking to me about great opportunities I can get involved in. There are a number of things that go tips up if I am not there next year. Because while I am one of many resources I'm the only one that delivers to my level (well one of 2 or 3). I'll stand on the side and get the war stories fed to me when I'm out. I realised my worth. I simple realised I am too good for this shit.

I dont know what genuine agile company is what makes it special. My firm spits the agility talk. "I drop my kids to school so I come in late." Small print should say "then I am evicerated till 2am everyday"

I will admit that the fuckry that is how hard I am having to work is making me very motivated to find another role. Personally, it would give me great pleasure when I do leave to see that the rest of the morons can't handle what I do and everything falls to shit on the pprojects I work on.

If you want to go on the Internet and scroll with 2 fingers. Yes. Macbook Macbooks are brilliant. If however you want to use it for functional purposes osx is shite. The osx version of office is a crock of shit. The lack of £ sign annoys me because egocentric Americans refuse to change it for the UK market. Functionality of switching tabs and programs is easier on windows. Windows however slows down. I will admit.

Have you ever done this. Whether it be a moment of meltdown or a fuck you up moment. I did this the other day. I work in a professional services firm and I got screwed over where I was lied to to get me to accept a booking for a job. It was 20 times more work that what I was told would be my remit. Got stuck with it and told to carry on. Despite outlining I have no scope. There's been a few emails between my self and a manager on the job who replaced the guy who screwed me over (left the company). He knows I'm not happy at situation but is the one who told me to crack on. Anyway long story short, I send a couple of slightly sarcy emails. Nothing overtly rude or anything and he emails back saying he needs to talk about my attitude and professionalism. This is the moment when I have enough and tell him (paraphrasing): "You don't need talk about my professionalism. In the end I am one of the few people in the department that delivers and delivers well. By now my reputation precedes me in this respect. I'm not going to pretend I am happy and keep smiling when I am not. I am working till 4am every day on my existing booking and doing stuff on the side to try and make a headstart on this other thing. I have outlined that the time I have is not enough to get this done and I don't even Have a team. How hard I am working is abuse. I collapsed at home through exhaustion and still came to work the next day. I'm a human being not a machine. Actually I'm better than a machine given the 3 laptops that have died on me in the theast 3 year. " you ever lost it with your bosses?

Niall, why do you have to go down the race route. The Internet affords you anonymity obviously but if you were as well educated as you claim to be you would be able to do more than spurt out racist comments.

Thats crazy Is she apart of your community? Or a different race? White. Irish parents.

When Niall goes deep. Threads become a ghost town. This and the salary thread. Seeing a pattern. Some lines have been crossed most definitely. Ah well, it was good while it lasted.

One chick who was mental (must be) claimed she was pregnant with my kid before I even slept with her. I'm not getting taken for Carlton so I was out quick. Was during uni times. She was fit. I see her in my local area on occasion. Now married. And she's fat. I feel sorry for that guy man. The shit he must deal with must be deeper than rap.

FairPlay. Although it doesn't say 49% of lone parents conceived in wedlock. It says 51% of line parents have never been married. Personally I think that statement in the link is too vague to draw your inference. What is does say is this: In 2011, 51 per cent of lone parents with dependent children had never been married, an increase from 42 per cent in 2001. One contributory factor to this is the increase in cohabiting couples whose relationships are known to be less stable than married couples3,4 That last sentence pretty much summed up my argument and is on the stats you posted to back yours.

Lost motivation to complete thereafter.
