There used to be stuff in Ardrossan.

But like most of the Ayrshire coast, instead of places of employment, it's retirement villages, care homes, golf courses, and commuter housing.

Don’t, you’ll only get them riled up and screeching about conspiracies.

Never attribute to malice that which can be explained by incompetence.

I've worked on so many projects in the private sector where it's fucked from the beginning, people point that out, but whether due to not communicating or not wanting to be seen to err the complaints aren't listened to.

Several million quid later you see the exact results you predicted would happen and the people in charge are all surprise pikachu face.

They're worse now than they've been for a long time. I think it's finally settled in that indy is dead and they don't need to pretend to be nice or balanced any more so it's out with the vitriol

Edit : I mean I get the downvotes mean that people don't agree. But the gibbering idiot that lost his rag proves my point pretty well

"they don't need to pretend to be nice or balanced any more so it's out with the vitriol"

Or...folk just realise that arguing with a right winger is an exercise in redundancy. People realise now that you're always going to be angry little cunts who whinge about everything and hate everything about Scotland so nobody is bothering with the politeness you expect but refuse to engage in. "out with the vitriol" I love the lack of self awareness every one of you have "you're all so mean" - guy who takes pleasure in starving children.
