  1. Banging a 17 year old equating to noncery is a queston of international law.
  2. Players gonna play......Remainers gonna cry..... You lost We are free! Suck it.
  3. Yeah, but everyone with a brain can see Trump won the election. But you and I get to enjoy the fictional world of dominion where he didn't! I'm loving it!!!! You?
  4. It really was!!! Some people in the west actually thought that personal enterprise and self determination was something worth pursuing and protecting!!!! But my point is......... That is what Putin now seems to support! If he was acting as a communist regime........ my 1980's indoctrination would kick in and I would resist.....but ........ everything is 180 degrees opposite!! I find him more aligned with my indoctrination/lived experience/idealogical outloook. If McCarthyism existed today.... Putin would probably be driving it!
  5. He's a strong leader. When I were a lad (80's), the evil Soviet empire was all about crushing personal freedom. Stifling free enterprise, and indocrinating the masses with groupthink. 1 large govenment telling their people how to behave and how to think. The enemy. Now, 40 years later. I feel like I live in such a country and Russia is the free world by comparison.
  6. Yup - this thread seems to have derailed. Back to mumsnet. That's a big ship to turn - especially as they are not using the same navigation system!
  7. Ive had a look through this thread, and ........the posts are very detailed and targeted... AND MANY!!!. Which means, as a newcomer to the thread, but, an old-timer forum-wise, and limited on reading time... I am a little confused as to how the lay of the land is. Could people please give their estimation of average forum contributor sentiment on the following metric: Vaccines are the way forward: ?% Natural immunity will suffice/Covid will mutate to nothingness: ?% EDIT: I STRESS! - I don't want your personal feelings on the matter - rather your perception of the group concensus - just to help an old HPCer re integrate.
  8. That is the highest quality graphic anyone has ever posted in reply to me! Many thanks - a marvelous image. Yes, I am high on hopium, I will always be high on hopium, because the outside air is so rancid. Without hopium... I will become desperate/asphyxiated/dead Thank God for hopium and its suppliers! ... and the fact that anyone still bleating on about "remain" is generally disregarded as an anachronous weirdo.
  9. It's been great! Pretty much how I imagined it if a crisis were to occur - which it has. Loving watching EU burn from the sidelines!
  10. My cup still over-floweth with remainer tears! I don't think it will ever run dry!
  11. read my post in the telegraph thread..... our time has come...
  12. Hello.... Most of you wont know me... some of you might remember me. I dont know if my post count/hpc stats still show or not. I used to be very active here. But eventually circumstances caught up with my principles and I bought. So I stopped posting in the main forum, although I occasionally lurk in OT. But my heart never changed through buying. Deep down. when you scratch beneath the surface. I am still HPC to the core. I have children. This place taught me so much. I was lurking here during the worst times (early naughties) and during the times of hope (late naughties)... only to watch the hope evaporate. I watched the HPs and the entire world economy pushed further into the madness. Why am I writing this post? Are you curious as to why? read on..... Of everything that I learned during my time here (and beleive me its like a phD in economics if you ever have the time), there was one thing that I always held on to as a certainty. The fact that one day, the priced out would outnumber the HPI blessed. I always knew that when this happenned.... things would change. In fact, I came to realise that ONLY when this happenned would things change. When the people who cant afford homes can outvote those who own, the price would fall. Like I say.... I have been getting on with my life away from here..... but today..... when I saw that the brexit camp were using hpc to bolster their argument....... my mi d was blown..... It has happenned. I am calling the top of the market.... Right here.... right now.... I am not starting a thread .... or for that matter rejoining the HPC ranks..... but mark my words..... when I saw the bremain camp threaten that brexit could cause HPC and the comments and feedback had as many "GOOD" remarks as "OH NOs".... and I then saw the brexit using HPC as a reason for Brexit...... Believe me. Our day has come.
  13. Just a quick note to say "Hi Count".. with regards from another old timer.....
  14. Oooh - I don't pop in here often any more...
  15. I have been lying low for a while on hpc. I don't know if I have been missed, but I feel a confession session coming on. I always said that I was an ftb, str, owner, and renter. And that was all true at one stage or another.(many at the same time) Well........ Well.......I've gone 100% into the debt slavecamp. I could justify it 20 different ways re money, inflation, the madness of governments etc, but the cold hard truth was closer to home as so many here have already observed. The sbn clan needed a cave. I blinked first. I was the last bear to turn bull. The markets stayed irrational longer than I could stay solvent. And now I am I'm a sort of hpc nomansland. I'm sorry guys.
  16. I have noticed a shift in public attitude regarding house prices in the last 6 months or so. Many more people seem to be asking/waiting for a collapse. Homeowners seem resigned to the fact that it might happpen. And bull's are much quieter than they used to be. Everybody seems to realise the dangers of an ever inflating market, and yet they continue to pump out the fls mantra, get the banks lending. I don't think the public want that anymore, and the disconnect is becoming obvious.
  17. Ah yes - a worthwhile bump - somebody needs to alert the spectator about this. And if they get no/unsatisfactory response, see what other publications think about their apparent inability to get Mr Prisk to answer the questions.
  18. At least its got rid of that ugly "House prices fall" headline. There's nothing auntie pravda does better than hide the truth from the eyes of the plebs. Well not since it paedo employing days anyway.
