I too think the BBC leaves a lot to be desired now. It was as you say, a way people learned to speak proper English and I also believe the standard of reporting has gone down. It is a shame, but I doubt things will improve any time soon. It is all about money for most things these days and I doubt the BBC is different although I hope I am wrong!

It was a serious news agency. The people took it serious. Now, it’s been watered down to sound bytes and propaganda. I know there was some shake up and they now have rubbish broadcast over and over again, one can’t listen to it steady.

In old times BBC was good. Then social justice warrior news taken over. And now news channels are just propaganda machines. I wonder how this quality has gone down over the years.

To me it was a way to cut costs, cut information, and go for the quick news, than a bunch of blah blah. Which, I don’t listen to. I know that there’s stupid interviews, but outside of hearing the ‘topic’ I shut it off. What is needed is another station to pop up being the old BBC…

You taught the Spanish teacher a new lesson, not to teach in a loud voice because someone might already be having lessons for free from her. Nice one. ha ha ha
So, that is how you can stop a braggart. Just comment him and let him show how to do the things he is bragging or show you what he is bragging of.
You subtly had your revenge on the ones who were formerly pestering you. Very strategic of yours, my friend. 🙂
I will take note of this. 🙂

I was so annoyed with her loud mouth, but somehow figured her out… and she’s so quiet after that… it’s like two different people.

Most people don’t care about anyone but themselves. I have found people to be loud and nasty and living as far from them as possible is the only way to find peace.

I don’t trust science finding because they will one day come and disprove their own findings and tell us different things meanwhile they have created an information in the mind of people. They told us there were 12 planets in the univers and this was taught in schools over the year wbut now they are telling us they have found other planets disproving their own findings. There are many such things i cant talk about.

One of the reasons why this item caught my attention is because of the ease that people fall for scams. I won’t go into the numerous scams that run in my country… but why do people fall for them?
I have found that obverse of the scientific ‘otherness’ finding; that the person ‘just like you’ is the best scammer. The ‘businessman’ ropes in business men, the high school grad ropes in high school grads…
In court the accused scammer looks just like the people he scammed. They way they dress, talk, hold themselves, often age groups.

Interesting as one thing I learned when I ran pre-school is that children settle best when their key worker looks like their mum or main carer. We do bond best with the earliest good caregiver and so are likely to prefer people like them. As the caregiver is usually the same race and ethnicity then that would figure. It does in a way, come down to survival. That said, most people when you scratch the surface are the same under the skin, but every family is in itself, a culture even within cultures.
-
The research proves this; the ‘us’ and ‘them’, which is the basis of racism… difference. I have observed a lot of scams and find that the automatic trust we give to ‘us’ can be used against us.

I get beatuflies in my stomach anytime i read blogs on trump and we are been asked to irgnore a charactor like him. I see him as the world biggest threat now who must be watched carefully. the kind of appointment this guy is making should tell us that he is up to something fishy. He is appointing people who will agree to his lies so when he said african are monkeys and so must be killed they will say yah and act. it is like given osama control the worlds weapons. we must watch trump rather

Our eyes see the same because we are outside of the ‘American Net’. The fact this guy lies, and has been caught in so many lies, tricks, and the Americans are going along with him, amazing. We in the 3rd and 4th world have to quickly re-set our priorities our trading partners, our outlooks.
Although a lot of Americans are against him, enough are to keep him in power.

But he’s right about BBC, CNN and Buzzfeed. I have yet to validate a single claim of website such as buzzfeed. Lot of crappy articles on buzzfeed. So Trump is right on that part.
-
Buzzfeed is not serious news. The BBC/CNN are. They may ‘spin’ an item, but they don’t fabricate. Trump fabricates. He lies and demands you believe it. The Good Thing is that the world knows he is a liar, a shifter, who will say one thing here, another thing there, such as his Sweden thing. So no one believes anything from the US now.
-
There are lot of spin items at BBC. They were the one who said pakistan is safe country. In reality it turned out that country is the one shipping ISIS mindset all over the world. Same with CNN. They sided with china and guess who is providing support to ISIS and Jem leaders? China. You need to dig very deep to understand where BBC, CNN and Buzzfeed type sites are in order to understand what is fake news and real news.
-
There is a difference between spin and lies. And Trump lies.

Looks like elections held in different countries in the world in the year 2014 to 2016 had see fine people lossing to old trump like charactors.Two of such trump like presidents is the nigerian oldman buharrie and ghanaian oldman nana addo.
This two figures are another laying individuals who came into power through lies and decert and they are mantain those lies to suvive in power. The world is in trouble with trump in charge of america.
He will one day wake up and tell his troups to bomb the world because he could smell a grand agenda of the world raising up against america. where from this hitlar kind of personality. we must watch out.-
Trump is the most dangerous. He has to go…or we are facing armeggedon.

I think there is value in being able to watch a series all through and see if it actually hangs together. People miss a lot if they see something week to week and think the series is better than it is. Twin Peaks is not one I ever watched and from what you say, I don’t think I will bother. Youtube is a good source for old series. I have been watching “Upstairs Downstairs” about a family and their servants in the 1800’s. It is an English family and gives an interesting insight into a period in history.
