huh? have I missed something?

fohwtbs


There is one scene with Yukinon that proper reminds me of Fizzel, I can't find the scene individually and don't want to post the whole video as no one will watch it :frown:

As for Floyd, he was real comfy with the Nevada State Commission. HBO recorded him injecting needles into his hands FFS. Obviously that was legal in Nevada, but the man would do whatever it takes to get the W.
On a black bond:*

For me it seems quite patronising when I hear white people saying how much they want the next bond to be black.. it almost feels like 'we cant possibly have a solid new black character..no, a new film around black people could never work. so lets just have an established white franchise and cast a black person'. If the film studios really cared about equality, just go forth and make a new franchise, that contains an awesome black lead, and show everyone how you can have an amazing black role-model.. rather then showing that young black people that the only way to succeed is to do what white people do.

No question that the talent is their to make the movie.. so many good young black writers/dirrectors and actors about at the moment. Just the big studios hate anything original and risky right now.*

On lending money to friends:

I never do it - but my wife does. People over here are much more accepting of it. Just last month she gave two grand to her friend so that her friends mum could buy a house. So far her chinese friends have always paid us back, but it still makes me very un easy. *
Chinese students are ruthlessly pragmatic.*

Come on here and see a million threads of advice like 'Study what you love!!' 'Dont listen to your parents, follow your passion!!' 'Its important to study what you love, otherwise you wont give it your all!!'

Chinese kids:

Why would I study what I like? In school I had no choice, after graduation I am highly likely to get a job I dont fully like, so why should I not just maximise my career and earning potential by studying the right choice of degree?

Ask them if they will be more likely to drop out/not try.

They say:

Ofcourse I will try hard, you don't have to like something to stick at it, and try hard. Most of our adult lives/school lives we have to work on things we don't love, so why should university be an exception to this? Why all of a sudden at uni cannot not cope with working on something I don't like, even if I know its good for me?

Yeah unusual for a boxer to go up through the weights and still carry his KO power like that.

Not a fan of black bond. Should just start a different series, perhaps parallel. 20 years from now Bond is going to be a paraplegic Indian lesbian.

He's so smooth. Look how he throws that cup of water. If that was me I'd get it all over myself:frown:
That part of you brain that just wants bad stuff to happen so you can see what it looks like. Basically the part that drives GTA sales. That part of me really really wants Trump to win.

If you don't mind me asking, how did you get into finance?


Not too sure tbh, to some extent I fell into it :lol:

Got a bit lucky to some extent as my degree is in History. Just had to sell my transferrable skills and come across that I wanted to develop a career in the sector. Then once you're in you're in... I work for one of the biggest investment houses in the UK and i've gained some good experience. Annoyingly there aren't many jobs going internally but I wouldn't mind working in London for a bit. Have a final stage interview on Tuesday for a private equity firm.

Applying there for uni next year, what is Cardiff like for students?

Perfect imo. It's a student city for a start, so most people that you'll see will be around your age. It isn't particularly large so you can find your way around after a couple of weeks, but big enough that you can discover new stuff all the time if you wish. The main part of the uni is literally two minute walk from the city centre. Plenty of clubs and pubs, with good variety and whenever the rugby is on it's the awesome. Lastly it's stupidly cheap for a city, my mate in London pays over double what I do in rent (I pay £280 per month rent). If you've got any questions hit me up.

Cardiff is an excellent city. I would move there in a heartbeat if there were any decent paid jobs there.

What do you think of black drug lords that infested their own communities and held them back for years, for the sake of personal riches? To what extent do you think this is just a by product of ruthless capitalism? Please reference the Crack epidemic in your answer. (27 marks)
