  • Stop freaking me out you guys! What was being said months ago on MSE is now getting said in the media and lots of people were slating people when they said there was a depression coming! Now what I would like you to do is tell me all the good news and hopefully it will come true. Tell me that there are green shoots! Tell me that we are going to be able to get easy credit! Tell me no more boom and bust! Tell me things are going to turn back to normal by the end of the year..... Come on please!

    I'll try "The Great Depression was the depression to end all depressions"

    Please! Mostly all the other predictions are coming true!:eek: Could you get the lotto numbers for tomorrow please?

    I have a great system for winning with the Lottery which I'll share with you.

    I 'win' £52 a year by not buying a ticket every week. The amount you 'win' can increase indefinitely - up to millions of pounds in fact - as long as you increase the number of tickets you don't buy.

    Or something...:rotfl:
