Nope.

Just goes to show, no-one likes an egotist.

The fuck was Raised By Wolves?

I love you, Sun Newspaper....

The fuck was Raised By Wolves?

.

It was this comedy thing.

I actually found it kinda funny, but I like most things so it was probably awful or something.

 

[CWCissey]

The fuck was Raised By Wolves?

A 'comedy' based on Caitlin Moran's teenage years, basically her admitting to being a horny bitch and her Commie sister was meant to be the smartest person on the show. Best character was the geeky sister as she wasn't completely annoying/a strawman/a small child.

The salt is going to be wonderful, hyped!

Some of the watchlist are already ramping up.

Also, make sure you watch the Alternative Election Broadcast on Channel 4 tomorrow Britfags. Paxo's hosting (already a winner) and everyone's favourite Hitler haired big baby, David Mitchell, is there too.

If the rumours of a Labour pasting are true, Mitchell will have another strop. Paxo will likely see fit to taunt him through the night too.

EDIT: YouGov are calling an increased Tory majority. 7 point lead over Labour.

The Sun is such utter garbage, but god they have the funniest front pages.

 

[Ponderous Pillock]

COLOUR ME FUCKING SURPRISED after making sure they were the only pollster the luvvies spoke about right up until election night when they suddenly throw themselves into the exact average.

Of course, they also overstated labour support by 5% last time around so fuck knows how it'll be this go.

Has anyone seen that crap youtube put out for the election? #powertodecide or some such claptrap, it looks like they haven't ventured outside of London to film it.

 

[Inquisitor_BadAss]

So this time tomorrow Britain will once again wake to a Tory majority and the fallout will be hilarious. I really want SNP to lose seats and I don't care who takes them away, I just wanna see that smug bitch sturgeon boil over.

Nah I have adblock so I don't get that shit.

Sounds about right though, after all YouTube is owned by an American company and those thickos only have a slight grasp on the concept of Liverpool due to the Beatles, recently Manchester too due to the bombing and think there are dragons and shit outside the M25.

So do I but it's slapped right next to there logo, if you click ever so slightly to the right of the YT logo you get taken to the video.

An yea anything north of the Watford Gap is "There might be Dragons" to most Londoners, what pisses me off though is currently Manchester has the largest Technical office for Google in the UK something like 300 engineers an support staff, same goes for other tech companies lots of them have major offices dotted around the area but all seem to focus on their London operations that's normally under 100 staff and a few meeting rooms.

Oh yeah I saw that logo, but not the vid.

Let me guess the content though, a diverse group of young things saying how the Tories frighten them and only the Glorious Leader can lead us into the light, all of them speak in that annoying Made In Chelsea accent or that enraging 'SAHTH LONDON BRUV' if they're ethnic, maybe with a couple of crunchy granola types sprinkled in. No real people, no right wing views, no dirty Northerners.

I didn't know that Manchester had the largest tech office. They may not think much of us, but they sure as Hell like our cheap property!

Which is hilarious because the majority of the UK population, while urban, is more towns and small cities based with just 3 major metro areas (London, West Mids Conurbation and Manchester) being at the higher end of the scale.

London has prestige while most foreigners would struggle to find Manchester on a map. Besides, they're about to build that Landscraper of theirs.

95% on the money next to no Tory bashing but it's implied.

Manchester is better for business flights as it happens, faster flight time and little to no delays.

And that things an experiment in absurdism, I looked at the proposed plans and it's mostly empty space looks nice my guess it's a way for google just to spend money they will occupy totally for about 10 years then parts of it will be offered as an incubation / innovation hub for some rather nice tax write off's.

Because London is so built up that all three of the airports in the immediate area are packed to the brim. Manchester Airport is quieter compared to the likes of Heathrow and Gatwick.

For TA flights I'd rather go to Manchester than London not just because it's closer but because it's quicker to go through the airport.

Nearby Dimwitsborogh and Thickville facebook groups are currently running sponsored posts on facebook urging 18-25 year olds to vote as there's "no pressure but its super important guys." And are clearly backing the bearded saviour.

Dimwitsborogh and Thickville enjoy conservative majorities of over 12,000 (higher than East Pillockshire as they're even more rural then we are) and there's no way there's enough 18-24 year olds that give enough of a shit about Labour to overturn them. Indeed I knew quite a few younger sorts who voted Tory because the local labour people were never to be seen.

The post isn't very effective, so far 12 people have shared it and none of them under 35.

The polling industry right now.

Pollsters are unintentionally trolling Momentum:

At least I hope it's this kind of result that's wrong, it seems off.

Has anyone seen that crap youtube put out for the election? #powertodecide or some such claptrap, it looks like they haven't ventured outside of London to film it.

I keep getting a weird video where a guy has a girlfriend who does everything for him, including making decisions (Presumedly because he's legitimately a retard) and she gives him a biscuit which he chokes and dies on. The allegory being the biscuit was the result of the election because he couldn't be bothered voting.
