Grinds My Gears

[brewski1984]

Do you want to know what really grinds my gears?

Everyday I go on facebook and see loads of my friends commenting "in" on some betting tipster page

Not once have I seen someone turn £25 into 1k and it really really really annoys me knowing that the guy running the page is just an affiliate rinsing commissions from the bets and not even taking the bets himself It's a very clever thing to do as the 9th bet is over £700 and the commission on hundreds of people on that bet must be massive

Of course no matter how many times I point it out to people they still do it

Exactly like when you were gambling and other people tell you to stop, you just carried on regardless. When people want to gamble, it's best to let them. When the money runs out, they will stop.

Since you know how this scheme works, why don't you get into it and make some profit ? Better than gambling and you get a steady income. It's a positive edge strat.

You dont use facebook ? :-0:

Not until I start using expressions like, "No way dude".

Actually, that should read:
"Not until I'm like, no way dude".

No, neither do I Mike, nor Twatter, LinkedIn, Google+, Pinterest, Instagram or Tumblr etc. I admit I am a fan of YouTube which I believe comes under the umbrella of 'social media' - but I just watch content - I've never posted a video of my own.

i say dude sometimes...hahahahaha .............

facebook is the devils work ....i am on there as i tracked down some old school and work collegues a while back - that was it ...nothing more

now i get dumbass updates and suggestions from people i dont know regarding what time they went to the toilet or a nice snapchat / pinpost / arsewipe photo of wannabees posing on beaches....

tedious mindless drivel .......but as a marketing concept to sell to the masses anything they are dumn enough to believe works ?.............hey its a goldmine

Dummies have been around since the stone-age...... from the first caveman who bought a square wheel from the strange traveller who dissapeared the next day .......

so lets not stand in the way of evolution ........
