Didn't really know where to stick this so put it here... Pretty much agree with most of it The list of footballers who share their lives through social media is long - but it's fair to say Sandro Wagner doesn't feature on it. In an interview with t-online.de, the 31-year-old former Germany international made it pretty clear he's not a fan. "I'm always presented like a Stone Age man, just because I don't actively use this nonsense," he said. "Social media is a big evil for me. "People there make a living from sharing their lives with others. They can do nothing and get money for it if I watch them having breakfast." Wagner, who left German champions Bayern Munich for Chinese Super League side Tianjin Teda in January, is worried social media can give children "a false picture of life". "I see the danger that our children will become more and more stupid and ultimately more unhappy because they are following the wrong role models, pretending to live in a glamorous world," he said. "If it's all just about asking the internet community and the pseudo-stars there how I should have my hair cut or how I should paint my face in three minutes, then something is heading in the wrong direction." Wagner, who has also played for Bundesliga sides Werder Bremen, Hertha Berlin and Hoffenheim, scored five goals in eight appearances for Germany. He retired from international duty when he was let out of the 2018 World Cup squad. "Making your own experiences, developing through real contact with other people, feeling how things actually go down with others when you say them... there's less and less of that," said Wagner. "But maybe it's all just normal these days. And I'm not normal, that might as well be."

Anyone else watching Pennyworth???

Nice weather... pissing down

He knows....

Xmas Card List Toinho Stick with Azeem

Trouble within the ranks I see....

It is now.. Thank you kindly..

Strange?? It's ok when you open threads but if you are looking at All Activity it goes a bit pear shaped.. Any idea @Rab?? or is it just a glitch of some sort

Anyone else experiencing the forum display being pushed to the left with a big blank section on the right or is it just me??

Just finished watching 'Arrival' now about to watch 'Dredd'

Sorry to hear about that mate...

Has anyone else seen the CEX advert on Film 4?? they actually swear in it.. Thought I had misheard it the first time around but no..

Had Leelah overnight and today she lectured me on leaving the toilet seat up... A 4 year old telling me off in my own house???

Always gutting to lose a pet... After we lost Holly our last German Shepard I felt the same as you, couldn't go through it again, I have had 3 in my lifetime and it never gets any easier but my Laura wanted a Staffy so I said yes.. been as good as gold she has

Superb...

Half the office staff at our place spend their time 'working from home' it's fast becoming the new crafty day off sick without getting done for it..

I think the word you are looking for is 'manipulated'

The house will take a few months if what I am hearing is to be believed... Now that Leelah the 'destroyer' has moved out she said and I quote "It needs doing from top to bottom" she wants the lot doing, every single room including carpets..

Sadly no... I appreciate that this does severely weaken my chances of holding on to my post of the year title but with my daughter moving out finally and helping my other daughter out with her new car all projects for the garden had to be shelved as money got diverted elsewhere.. I am also being told that the house is in need of a revamp as well so if there are any projects at all to be completed they will be indoor ones and will not stretch my skills in the slightest.. only my patience probably Had a boring leaking pipe under the bath this week that needed fixing and that's done now and some shelves to put up in the airing cupboard which I will start tomorrow.. I am afraid that's about it, my talents will amount to a few brushstrokes, holding a scraper and maybe mixing up some wallpaper paste.. The missus will probably catch me looking out of the window into the garden often as I daydream about what might have been...

Let my 12 days holiday commence....

Gold bars...

Wish I could spend all day drinking, that would be nice for a change... Waitrose returned 9 pallets of stock to us yesterday which was rejected by them because their driver messed up and it went on staff sale for 50p a pot today, £30,000 worth of stock that will probably get binned.. what a fucking waste.. Seeing the staff trying to get at the product was like watching a pride of lions let loose in a kids playground at lunch break...

Spooky...
