Beefy's Corner - The Off-Topic Chat Thread

I was hoping the was telling people that I was taking the piss.

 

I think we're going to be needing a GoT board.

Abuse or just a very pushy dad?

 

Love the feeling when you go into a mini-project pretty much certain that it'll fail miserably...and it succeeds. Decided to flash the firmware of an eight-year-old (but still somehow functional) 802.11g router and turn it into a signal repeater, something that has a habit of bricking them with some regularity, but that hardy old $30 POS took it and is working perfectly. Huzzah.

 

There's also a whole board devoted to motorcycle sports. And motorsports in general. And PC games, for the Rome Total Way chat. And 360/PS3 boards for GTA chat. And TV shows for Game of Thrones/Breaking Bad/etc. And movies and music too, at that. In fact, there's a whole big one for general chat, so that covers pretty much everything. No need for Beefy's guys, let's go!

 

I think as long as one topic doesn't continue page after page after page and dominates everything else it's fine in Beefy's.

 

A non story, really. The kid didn't really fly, he just went up with an instructor who let him take the controls for a bit.

 

I was more on about the other stuff his dad made him do. Like walk about in snow in just pants with the temperature in the minus .
Also making him climb a mountain as well.

 

Eric Abidal who has just left Barcelona said the club didn't pay him whilst he was off with liver cancer. Perhaps that is common in football, but seems very harsh to me. Footballers are rich but like most people probably live near their income...would be very difficult to unexpectedly lose your income whilst seriously ill.

 

My uncle didn't get paid when he had cancer.

 

Children should be allowed to be children. Amounts to child abuse passing itself off as education. Do you remember that girl who went to Oxbridge at a very early age accompanied by her Dad...she had no friends because she was always with her father and was too young to mix with undergraduates. All turned out badly in the end.

 

Think my firm pays 12 weeks, but may pay more on a case by case basis. I just thought that footballers would have better contracts than the rest of us.

 

Only reason I don't really use other forums on here is I am use to chatting to the same people. Coming off the Saints forum there seems to be a lot more idiots about. Think it's due to how the Saints forum is run compared to most of the others.

 

His work paid 8 weeks, then tried sacking him after he was off loads due to treatment.

 

Just seen online that after yesterday's U21 game, Luke had a photo with a Saints fan who travelled to the game.

Anyway, today he's found and tweeted this fan asking if they'd like his England shirt.

They said he shouldn't give it away as its a debut shirt, but he says he wore two so they can have the other one.

Not the sharpest cookie but he seems to appreciate the supporters.

 

Yeah you notice that if you follow him on Twitter. Seems a good lad init.

 

Same really didn't know it was a problem, it was only because it was the start of the season, it won't be constant on a day to day basis.
