  • 9/10 mental health services in Glasgow are complete balls. My girlfriend has waited 4 years to be seen to bc the GP brushed her off every time, even after numerous suicide attempts. I’m also transgender and instead of helping me with that they sent me to ‘self esteem’ classes and told me the only thing wrong with me was a lack of confidence. Thankfully after fighting them all these years we were finally referred to somewhere that deals solely with mental health, but it’s been a long road to get here. This isn’t to say they’re all like this but our experience hasn’t been great, the biggest advice I can give is don’t let up and push your gp into it if they won’t listen. Good luck I hope you’re experience turns out a good one! by damezvader (Thu 27th Jan 2022 10:49am)
  • Going through the exact same situation and have been for the past 4 years so this has been very helpful. I definitely wouldn’t drop it tho just incase, we’re still keeping an eye out for weird behaviour and documenting it incase anything escalates but will be using all these tips. Hope the kids get sorted out on your end, nothing worse. Thanks to everyone for the tips! by damezvader (Tue 22nd Feb 2022 5:07pm)
  • Honestly not gonna lie we’ve completely stopped going out in the gay scene in Glasgow because of how hostile it could be. This is purely from polo and AXM although the latter was considerably worse. I’ve heard Katie’s bar is a good night out but haven’t even attempted it after the utter shit show of the previous nights out. by damezvader (Fri 8th Apr 2022 1:51pm)
  • Get yer doors locked and watch the circus from the safety of your own home A massive percentage of these cunts are only there for a booze and a fight, whole thing should’ve been shut down years ago by damezvader (Sat 21st May 2022 10:30pm)
  • Honestly was the exact same mate I started going to The Gym in to govanhill about 10ish at night and you’re lucky if there was even a handle full of other people in there. No the best place to be stoating about after dark but it’s a class wee gym by damezvader (Fri 5th Aug 2022 3:39pm)
  • Instructor is an absolute whimp with a duty of care he failed to follow through on. You are in control of a vehicle so he should have been the one to get the details for you and stand as witness since he saw it happen. As for the other cunt, he’ll get is cunt punched in at some point and soon realise to keep his gub shut. Fuckin shite that’s happened to you OP, gl with the rest of your lessons. by damezvader (Fri 12th Aug 2022 3:14pm)
  • Never said at any point for there to be confrontation or for anybody to open their mouth and cause it, the instructor should’ve taken his details like I said by damezvader (Sat 13th Aug 2022 3:41am)
  • I’d consider sticking your head down and not bothering to do a thing makes you a whimp whether that’s taking a picture of the reg or screaming at the cunt, the details don’t really matter by damezvader (Sat 13th Aug 2022 3:49am)
  • Nobody said any cunt had to get battered Are you even reading wit am saying? At NO point did a say to fight. But he couldn’t atleast took a fuckin picture or aided OP in phoning the police afterwards out the way of the cunt Agreed no every cunts built to fight but no every situation needs one, like this one, it just needed that cunt to be on the ball by damezvader (Sat 13th Aug 2022 3:57am)
  • Fully aware A case of being built different again bc going up to court against a random wee goblin like that would be the least of my worries man by damezvader (Sat 13th Aug 2022 4:03am)
  • Nah but seeing it happen to a massive percentage of your pals day in day out kind makes you have the opinion the cunts are absolute goblins, don’t need to be racially abused to see how fuckin minging it is by damezvader (Sat 13th Aug 2022 4:14am)
  • So some cunt you don’t know shouting racial abuse at you, you wouldn’t consider them a random wee goblin? Think most people would, or their own variation of it atleast Driving about in a car with his burd acting the big man being a racist but he’s no well? Nb, even if he is would it no make more sense to highlight it to the right people and get the cunt help? Swings and roundabouts man by damezvader (Sat 13th Aug 2022 4:10am)
  • If that’s the case that’s absolutely pish and I wouldn’t wish it on any body. Born and raised here, they love their city and fuck any body that tries to tell them differently, strongest cunts a know by damezvader (Sat 13th Aug 2022 4:21am)
  • Exactly mate live and let live by damezvader (Sat 13th Aug 2022 4:27am)
  • Exactly right, everyone deserves a fair chance of a better life. Love to hear it my wee nana was in a similar boat 👍 by damezvader (Sat 13th Aug 2022 4:25am)
  • Too true man, find the common ground and we can all co exist perfectly fine by damezvader (Sat 13th Aug 2022 4:30am)
  • Work on Avanti trains mate and it’s an absolute shambles from London-Glasgow atm. Full and standing on most services because of the cancellations which means no catering facilities so make sure to bring your own stuff. Better trying to get a cheap flight at the minute you’re wasting your money on a train ticket and seat reservation only to be standing for atleast 4 and a half hours and thats without delays which is unlikely. Been a fuckin state for months and it’s unlikely to get any better for atleast another few months unfortunately. by damezvader (Fri 19th Aug 2022 10:40am)
  • Aye the prices for local flights is a fuckin joke but honestly worth the extra cash for a guaranteed seat, guaranteed air conditioning and a dafty free journey by damezvader (Fri 19th Aug 2022 10:54am)
  • Very true! by damezvader (Fri 19th Aug 2022 11:18am)
  • Honestly depends when you book, can get to London for pretty cheap if you plan far enough in advance by damezvader (Fri 19th Aug 2022 11:46am)
  • Yeah massive driver shortage, train manager shortage also by damezvader (Fri 19th Aug 2022 12:25pm)
  • Your bike will 110% be fine, if you’ve got a bike reservation you’re locked in with that and it’ll be safely stored away from the public. As for yourselves however it’ll be a wait and see on the day unfortunately. Regardless of your seat reservation if that train leaves London full and standing it’ll be fully declassified and be a free for all essentially which is shit, fingers crossed for you tho! by damezvader (Fri 19th Aug 2022 1:11pm)
  • Haha typical day on the railway mate. Glad to hear you got back to Glasgow all good! by damezvader (Mon 22nd Aug 2022 10:02pm)
  • Worth checking your local newsagents! That’s what I did when I was moving and they gave me a whole load for nothing, they were just happy someone else was dealing with getting rid of them lol by damezvader (Thu 25th Aug 2022 6:09pm)
  • Exactly man, hope a lesson has been throughly learned by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 7:15pm)
  • Just had a look and I’ll definitely pass that info along, big thanks mate by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 7:21pm)
  • Wasn’t me that organised it all but as far as I’m aware he arranged some sort of digital transfer then a meet up with my wee cousin within the hour and didn’t show up. Patched him completely and started ripping the cunt out of him when he started asking what was happening. Agreed mate, think because it’s becoming so popular now tho people aren’t doing the research and trusting it Edit - fuck sake man, hope he enjoys his unearned money the wee rat by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 7:39pm)
  • Youre a gentleman and a scholar, enjoy by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 7:44pm)
  • Cunt does it all digitally so he’s just no showing up to meet ups, probably to avoid getting done in for being a fuckin tramp 10/10 idea but wish I could by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 7:43pm)
  • Think it’s more than one as he told me he was in contact with a ‘driver’ etc but in reality that could be one wee fanny with four different devices Nice one mate much appreciated by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 7:51pm)
  • I’ve suggested that to him but he’s only 17 and he’s absolutely shiting it incase his maw finds out if he goes to the police so he hasn’t as of yet, still hope tho by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 8:02pm)
  • I know it’s as if that’s no how it’s done nowadays! by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 8:14pm)
  • Wasn’t me that got bumped. It was my wee cousin who’s only 17 and clearly a bit naïve when it comes to buying drugs. In fairness tho he’s not the first, cunts apparently a big time scammer by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 8:10pm)
  • Suggested that to him and yet to hear back if he’s done it Think he’s shiting himself a bit now incase his parents find out and doesn’t know how to go about it by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 8:16pm)
  • Nah just some herbs and spices by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 8:15pm)
  • Bank transfer as far as I’m aware, he did mention crypto to me but highly doubt he’d do that by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 8:15pm)
  • Nah you’re dealing with a 17 yo boy who’s a wee bit naive and needs a bit a guidance from cunts like us who know a wee bit more. That’s also how ALOT of dealers do it nowadays lmao, carrying cash is too sketch by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 8:24pm)
  • It’s all through bank transfer most I can do is tell a cunt he’s a cunt lol by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 8:22pm)
  • 100% aware it’s his fault and he won’t be making that mistake again that’s for sure He’s done all this and it brings up one person who doesn’t really seem the scam artist type so maybe the cunt doesn’t have Facebook or uses a fake name on there, who knows by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 8:32pm)
  • Well maybe he is, but at the end of the day a wee guys been bumped of a massive portion of his wages this month and is in turmoil about it so no need to be an arse really is there? by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 8:30pm)
  • Not entirely sure what that means lol by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 8:39pm)
  • Nah just another poor wain born in the 21st century that’s no got a clue wit physical cash is and has only ever done deals through digital payment No kicks to the heed I can remember anyway by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 9:10pm)
  • ‘No taking a risk of carrying cash and green’ is what I’m told by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 9:19pm)
  • Again, he’s acted like a daft wee boy bc he’s not got a clue how this shit works 100% mate, he won’t be doing that again by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 9:17pm)
  • He would be if he was legit tho? He knows he’s get a battering meeting up with cunts and scamming them so he’s hiding behind a screen taking advantage of the fact everything’s digital now by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 9:37pm)
  • You do realise dealers have more green on them than the amount you personally are buying? Cunts have duffle bags of the shit under their seats, combine that and all the cash if they get stopped and they’ve no got a hope of talking their way out of it by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 9:41pm)
  • That’s exactly wit I’m saying haha, couldn’t meet up in person and no hand over green for cash so he does it this way, nobody’s gonna walk away after getting told I’m taking your money and no giving you your purchase Absolutely man hopefully he learns from it by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 9:39pm)
  • ‘Wee fanny’ has only ever done it that way, as have a lot of people But a 17yo losing a chunk of money just because he wanted a smoke with his pals on his weekend off? Aye I’ve got rapid sympathy for that, takes all sorts to make up the world I guess by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 9:49pm)
  • Must feel nice ripping the arse out of a 17yo wee guy, bet that makes you feel right a right big man by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 9:47pm)
  • Oof Unempathetic one you are by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 9:47pm)
  • Considering he’s 17 and the only way he’s ever bought green before is through digital payments I don’t think he would’ve even thought of pulling him up over it mate by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 9:45pm)
  • He was suggested to go to the police claiming he bought stuff online and never received it, wouldn’t be my first port of call but I’d have suggested taking a rocket to the moon and no coming back if I thought it would calm the poor wee cunt down by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 9:52pm)
  • Not got a fuckin clue, couldn’t get that much sense out of him tbh by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 9:56pm)
  • Been asked by the wee man to delete the post, cheers to every cunt who gave good advice 👍 by damezvader (Sun 18th Sep 2022 10:00pm)
  • If you said this to any Romanian you’d get a swift kicking, MASSIVE difference culturally between the two by damezvader (Fri 30th Sep 2022 11:06pm)
  • If they’ve been sound in every other regard just have a word with them and tell them they’re encouraging pests in the close and that if they don’t move it you’ll have to phone in the council to get someone who will. Had this a similarish issue with a daft cunt my burd used to be pals with, had a dog and would only let it out on the balcony so she saved up all its shite, stuck it in the kitchen and took it out in bulk at the end of the day. Attempted to do it in mine in 25 degree heat and it melted all over the floor, the dogs bowl, mat, everything and she was perfectly content with that, didnt see it as an issue just ‘part of owning a dog’, safe to say the clatty cows no been back since. by damezvader (Wed 23rd Nov 2022 9:44pm)
  • This is just a classic bored nit picking neighbour, had the same issues in my last flat bc they didn’t like dogs so I became the target for having one, constant chaps from the police about noise complaints and claims of ‘wild parties’ only for them to come in and see my and me girlfriend were alone watching tv. Try and be reasonable and explain it’s unreasonable for them to request you not to make noise at such an early time in the evening. They also can’t control the footwear you wear in your own home so I would be bringing that up aswell. If they keep it up start putting letters through their door explaining you feel harassed by them and if they don’t stop you’ll take it further. Any member of authority is gonna laugh them out the building for their claims. You’ve very much got the upper hand here, what they’re doing is petty and pathetic. by damezvader (Wed 23rd Nov 2022 10:42pm)
  • DELETED Network rail and Avanti drivers will both be on strike tomorrow. So there will be an extremely limited service from Glasgow to London, if anything runs at all. Local Scotrail services shouldn’t be effected unless something happens on the day, which is always a possibility. Source : I unfortunately work aboard the trains lmao by damezvader (Fri 25th Nov 2022 9:22pm)
  • DELETED Which is why I didn’t specify ‘network rail drivers’ I said network rail, meaning it as a whole, who are on strike tomorrow. by damezvader (Fri 25th Nov 2022 10:38pm)
  • DELETED If the individual is part of a union, they will be. If not then no picket line will be crossed but again no guarantees for any services. It’s those who are part of the RMT and ASLEF who are made up primarily of network rail workers. by damezvader (Fri 25th Nov 2022 10:43pm)
  • If that’s the case and I’m wrong I’ll hold my hands up to that. But I’m honestly going based on the documents I’ve been shown as my company is going on strike also and our dates have all been organised to coincide with eachother to avoid a massive service failure. If that infos wrong and I’m passing it on I hold my hands up. by damezvader (Fri 25th Nov 2022 10:47pm)
  • DELETED I won’t be sitting arguing with you lol. I’m part of the RMT and have been given shown the documents of who’s on strike, network rail are on there mate. by damezvader (Fri 25th Nov 2022 10:46pm)
  • DELETED It might differ company to company then bc our drivers are mainly RMT and are all on strike tomorrow. If the other info about network rail is wrong fair enough I’ll take that up with who sent out the message, but good to know from someone on the other side what’s going on. by damezvader (Fri 25th Nov 2022 10:52pm)
  • Absolutely no point in approaching them about anything mate. I reported a taxi driver who was clearly mentally unwell and was physically rocking back and forth so violently he was stopping and starting the car pretty much the whole journey, along with demanding to know my whole first name is it’s just my initials and saying some of the most insane racist claims you’ve ever heard. Sent them a screen shot of the journey including reg plate that I took while I was still in the car and heard nothing. Phoned them with the information and was totally brushed under the carpet with it. Phoned also about being charged for cancellations and was told pretty much ‘don’t book a taxi you don’t intent to travel in’ it’s been like this since the amalgamated they don’t give a shit about the quality of the service anymore bc of the sheer amount of drivers they have and even with that it you’re lucky if your cab even shows up lmao. by damezvader (Tue 29th Nov 2022 2:33pm)
  • They’re an absolute shambles couldn’t care less about what goes on in their cars. Aw absolutely mate good luck with it hope those bastards get an earful. by damezvader (Tue 29th Nov 2022 3:00pm)
  • I had no idea there was any codes on the back window or that you can go through the council, thanks for the advice, if it happens again this will definitely be the route I take. by damezvader (Tue 29th Nov 2022 7:12pm)
  • See that’s exactly the sort of drivers we need, one that isn’t afraid to point these things out and try and keep you safe. We need more people like that on the road. For example I NEVER give my whole name bc a taxi driver in Liverpool had a conversation with me after seeing I had my full name on the booking a few years ago which resulted in him telling me the shocking amount of taxi drivers that stalk their passengers on social media even if they don’t always reach out to them. Always been my initials since lol. by damezvader (Tue 29th Nov 2022 9:29pm)
  • A lot of people I know get their stuff from damaged society where pulp used to be in the st Enoch. Jeans are decent but a bit pricey, only saving grace is there’s a good few options. T-shirts are hot garbage man, only need to look at them and they roll up. Emp is banging tho, sales are fuckin amazing and the quality is spot on, plus they have so much variety, just shite you have to wait on delivery. by damezvader (Wed 30th Nov 2022 12:57pm)
  • 110% second this, if you’ve got access to a pc/laptop it’s so easy to do and it’s a one and done situation. Roms also take seconds to download so its not time consuming in any way to get your games on there. by damezvader (Wed 30th Nov 2022 1:10pm)
  • They’re a German company so online is their only option I’m afraid. Delivery is mega speedy tho, my packages usually come between 3-7 days after my order. by damezvader (Wed 30th Nov 2022 1:48pm)
  • Aye I’m the same, same reason I stopped shopping at pulp it’s all this ‘e-girl and e-boy’ bullshit they sell now. Can’t even get a decent pair of black skinnies without it having bar codes or some bullshit all over them. They usually have class deals the beginning of January for new year so well worth a look then. by damezvader (Wed 30th Nov 2022 1:57pm)
  • You seem to have posted in the wrong sub mate, I believe this belongs on r/thathappened by damezvader (Sat 18th Feb 2023 1:27am)
  • You’re spot on there mate, should’ve left it alone by damezvader (Mon 20th Feb 2023 1:05pm)
  • £450k is mental but it’s definitely not a ‘pokey wee flat’ it’s a wee belter, just no for anywhere near that amount of money. by damezvader (Fri 24th Mar 2023 11:26pm)
  • Anyone had the privilege of seeing their price list? Absolute fuckin insanity for a daft wee post no cunts ever gonna look at. by damezvader (Mon 27th Mar 2023 1:59pm)
  • Coming here to say be careful with GlasGo cabs aswell, I use them a lot through work(wouldn’t be my first choice anymore) and can confirm alot of the drivers shouldn’t be on the road. Had the same issue with a guy rocking back and forth starting and stopping the car while telling me he ‘hates’ and ‘doesn’t trust’ Asian men with women, some of the most hateful shit I’ve ever heard in my life, Instantly reported. Half of the time the drivers pull shit like this, praying they bring back Hampden and scrap the amalgamation lol. by damezvader (Thu 30th Mar 2023 1:32pm)
  • There’s always wan by damezvader (Sun 2nd Apr 2023 4:45pm)
  • Ma wee lost dug has been found so a beg to differ by damezvader (Sun 2nd Apr 2023 5:19pm)
  • If the rabbit you’re seeing is white it’s 100% a domesticated rabbit, wild rabbits are almost always a neutral grey/brown, definitely never white. Probably a poor animal someone has gotten rid of when Easter passed. If you can catch it I would even if you can’t keep it there are loads of rehabilitation places for domesticated rabbits that have been in the wild for a considerable time. Domesticated rabbits will not survive in the wild, they don’t have the right fur, they don’t have any natural antibodies due to how they are bred so any sort of disease from a wild animal will kill them very fast, their survival Instincts have pretty much been bred out of them aswell and as they can’t regulate their body heat they would die in lower temperatures due to not having a burrow or alternatively they would overheat and pass due to the same issue. Please please please try and capture this animal and get it help immediately. by damezvader (Wed 31st May 2023 12:17am)
  • After a horrendous Saturday night and a hospital stint from 2-9 in the morning with my girlfriend I came home to what I thought was a badger in my back garden. Absolutely shat myself never seen a badger in the centre of Glasgow before but turns out it was actually a squirrel down on all fours with its tail covering its back, was wondering wtf it was doing so went and had a better look and I seen a crow with a whole loaf of garlic bread in its mouth. This wee mad man ran up to it, roundhoused it to the beak, stole the loaf and ran up this tree to devour its prize. Here he is in all his glory, all hail the protector of the realm and devourer of garlic bread. by damezvader (Fri 2nd Jun 2023 4:53pm)
  • I honestly hope so it looked cooked to perfection by damezvader (Fri 2nd Jun 2023 7:27pm)
  • Can confirm this absolutely didn’t happen, if large groups were spotted while they were already in the air the ground police would be alerted, that’s literally it and even at that there’s no proof they’re doing anything wrong so 9/10 times it would be ignored as it’s a complete waste of police resources. If they’re floating around in a helicopter searching for people they’re not gonna waste their time on 10 wee neds in the park having a booze. There is zero helicopters around that time period that would the have equipment to film with enough quality they could fine you. Don’t know if this was a wee story to put the shits up you so you didn’t drink outside mate but it absolutely never happened in real life. by damezvader (Wed 14th Jun 2023 12:12am)
  • This is 110% animal cruelty, get the SSPCA on the phone or alternatively you can email them. I had to do it a few months ago because the aresehole above my nana locked his dog out on the vranda 24/7 no matter the weather and it was only about 4 foot x 4 foot and it was covered in its own droppings. Within a week the dog was gone so they act pretty fast. I’d also report the dog in the house too, if it’s aggressive chances are it’s being neglected too and that’s why it’s behaving in that way. If you cant look after all of your animals you shouldn’t have any. Thankyou for speaking up and being the voice these poor animals need. by damezvader (Sun 2nd Jul 2023 7:23pm)
  • If you can wait a week music magpie are fantastic, been getting iPhones from them for a few years, comes with the years guarantee and the condition is always spot on. by damezvader (Tue 4th Jul 2023 4:22pm)
  • Nirvana are fantastic and the aftercare they give you is great I’ve been pierced a good few times there, Hepcat on high street are also brilliant. The staff in both places are lovely. Avoid Blancolo at all costs their piercings are so cheap for a reason, the last time I ever went in there was years ago when I was a teenager to get my nostril pierced and the idiot used so much force she went through the hole of my septum piercing and burst my nose open, the nostril piercing also got severely infected bc of the force she used it a pretty big wound, 100% stay away from it lol. by damezvader (Fri 14th Jul 2023 3:59pm)
  • G-Force on Union street. Dodgiest gaming shop by far but their variety was amazing and they always fixed your consoles same day. Got GTA5 out of there a week early, gutted it’s gone but not surprised lol. by damezvader (Fri 6th Oct 2023 5:51pm)
  • Been noticing this for ages with them, was in shelter in town last week and they had ‘retro’ air max joggies for £65, the same ‘retro’ joggies you can walk into JD right now and buy for a fiver cheaper brand new lol. by damezvader (Tue 24th Oct 2023 12:38am)
