Random things on your mind.. (Part 4)

[Blue Red and Gold]

Bit rich from some of the friends and family to have a go at the media claiming all they want is some respect.

 

[FAITH]

I thought this thread was only for random crows things on your mind

 

[cmndstab]

Nah, better if it's not Crows-related to be honest but it's really just for anything on your mind.

How can AU lose 3-0 at home again
LFC knocking MU out of FA cup was sweet though

This Focarelli story has a underbelly series written all over it, the latest news about the bomb scare, the hot lawyer, all the murder attempts, including the failed bombing. Tie it in with the disappearance of Steve Williams, the disgusting shooting of the young child in his own bed.

I wonder if this has been a motivating factor in them being so brazen.

 

[Geoffa32]

As long as no innocents get hurt, let the scum shoot themselves as much as they want.

Innocent people in the crossfire is the only unfortunate aspect of this.

I don't really know much about his son, whether he was involved in the scummy activity his dad was or not, but he didn't ask to be born in such a miserable environment where his life was to be placed in constant danger by his father's activities. There's certainly an element of "innocent victim" there.

I'm not 100% sure, but I thought I heard the news person say step-son?

After reading a friends face book post about getting screwed over with a scoopon or something similar voucher.

I have recently been screwed over with a car washing one, got the voucher and had to ring a mobile to book a time only for the mobile in question never to be turned on. I have left my details but I have never heard back from them.

Other times using scoopons for golf days it has worked a treat and a massive money saver, I guess you win some and lose some.

From all reports he was up to his eyeballs in it.

One good thing with Scoopon is that if you are unable to use the voucher because the company screws you over, you can always get a refund.

I got a fishing charter one once but they sold so many they were literally booked out until after the expiry date. Scoopon refunded it with no questions asked beyond that explanation.

I've used Scoopon/Cudo/etc a few times but it can be a bit of a cluster**** actually using your coupon. We had to book a month in advance just to get into the Indian restaurant we had a coupon for (and that was for a Wednesday night). People can also be a bit rude when they find out you've got a coupon but I do feel a bit sorry for them what with some of the clientele who use these vouchers. I've heard from others who have bought food platters from them and it turning up looking like something you wouldn't even feed your dog.

I had a good experience with the Port Power tickets one though. The admin girl was very friendly and posted them out to me so I didn't have to pick them up at the gate on game day.

Took a punt on a really cheap shirt/suit deal one day - with no great expectations, but just hoping it paid off.

By the time I got around to ordering.. the company had a class action in progress with scoopon (or our deal or whoever it was). They were still happy to give me the deal.. but I had to go and get a refund from scoopon myself and just use cash with them as they couldn't even be sure who had been refunded and who hadn't. Was a bit of a schmozzle. got refund (credit) and don';t think used it yet.

 

[Lawrst]

I got a necklace for my mother as a cheap gift.

Took 3 months to get here.

 

[Slippery Pete]

got refund (credit) and don';t think used it yet.

Big difference between a refund and a credit.....

 

[Allefgib]

yes, yes there is.

I got a 'refund' in terms of 'scoopon credit'.

So let's just call it a rip-off and leave it at that?

Anybody want free kittens?

So let's just call it a rip-off and leave it at that?

As long as you know, I'm happy.

 

[Punchy Bassett]

I cannot believe the fuss being made over this Djokovic shirt thing.

 

[WALL-e]

There's a fuss? Over what, him taking the shirt off?

 

[Slippery Pete]

Yeah, about what?

I haven't heard any fuss at all.

 

[Smoooothy]

djokovic threw his shirt into the crowd at a 14 year old girl, another woman picked the flight beautifully and snatched it before the girl got it. eveidentally, the woman that got the shirt "apparently" used it as a napkin at an all night buffet around the corner - bit fo a pig if you ask me

fair play in my book, 14 year old should learn that life isn't fair

I don't believe that they tried to kill the Giovanni...they just hurt him and made him live out his days with the memories of seeing his son killed because of his own activities...

this has a potential of leaving him to never ever be happy or safe or his family thats left...

that is an ancient ancient way of dealing with mortal enemies...most people in this charade of a modern civilisation could never comprehend...

Went with a couple of mates to Mamak Corner for tea last night.

The food there is outstanding, and cheap - curry, roti and drink only sets you back about $15!
