Can i also interest you in the Southwest? Tolkien based the Shire on it you know :) x

Cornwall can drift into the Atlantic for all I care but Devon/Somerset are surely worth hanging onto!

Fight me and my bad dentistry you overweight, stetson wearing, language butchering, gun touting redneck.

The UK has a Michelin star restaurant for every 360k people, the US has one for every 1.5million people.

Dammit, I thought we were joining up with the Arctic.

I don’t do well in the heat :(

Not in the way it used to be though. I guess what I really miss is finding matches for counterstrike and stuff using IRC, it felt properly community based instead of designed to extract maximum money.

I will ask if she wants a drink, then request she makes me one too when she says yes.

I never offered to make it, only asked if she WANTED one.

I will then go make her a drink of course, and I’m not sure she’s ever found it funny, but I’m amused.

I miss IRC

I presume they mean his first meeting with Tuco, can’t think of another one that fits the description.

100%

What an insane point to make. If you’re a car person then of course you’ll admire others’ cars, even if you’re not, they’re often great bits of design and good fun in the right setting.

It’s only stupid if you then go out and try to get something to compete with it for more than you can afford to spend. I have no idea what the poster you replied to is talking about.

Concluded is a nice way to put it…

Didn’t they have to quit after doing an episode about workplace bullying at bôn appetit (or some other channel) and then getting called out for having behaved in exactly the same way for years? Proper douchebag hypocritical behaviour from memory.

They had some good episodes for sure, but fuck those guys.

Summoning Salt.

Not many people can make a 2 hr video about the world record progression of a game I’ve never heard of and have me absolutely invested in it all the way through.

Dude makes a video every 3-6months but god I love them. If anything they’ve improved over the years as his style has been refined and the videos got longer.

Flu kills about 36k each year in America, so actually very close to 100 a day.

Covid is just a thing that exists now unfortunately.

Watched a Mike Boyd video about indoor climbing.

Thought it looked fun, always enjoyed climbing as a kid, signed up for an intro lesson and been doing it 6months now. I’m stronger and fitter now in my mid thirties than I’ve ever been in my life before now.

I fucking love climbing.

Sounds like something a fat stupid American would say.

You wouldn’t do a day of admin for a power plant for $4.5m?

Let’s say someone wants an extra day off work, if you say no they don’t get their day off so all the work gets done either way, if you say yes you have to sort through paperwork and file it correctly, hourly rate of half a million dollars.

You’re honestly turning that down?

No squash is very different to fresh juice. It’s also called cordial but cordial tends to be far “syruppier” and may be slightly different, I’m not sure.

You mix 1 part squash with 6ish parts water (depending on preferred strength) and drink.

Ribena and Robinsons are the squash kings in the UK, just a very easy way to mix up some flavoured water basically.

Yeah of course mate, it was a joke about how (historically) we’ve given people plenty of excuses to be.

And there are loads of excuses already. No need to manufacture an extra one! I wonder how many Michelin star restaurants in the UK claim to serve traditional British food though.

But genuinely, does the rest of the world dislike fish and chips, roast dinners, fried breakfasts, and pies? I know the stereotype has been around forever but I always had trouble believing that most non British people wouldn’t really like those foods.

Appreciate the info thanks mate, I’m not really interested in using it tbh, I was just curious.

My PC gets used to play trackmania during boring meetings at work and not a lot else these days. Simple and easy with next to no thought or maintenance is what I’m after so windows is fine for me.

That’s a great summary and completely explains it, thanks bud.

And I presume Arch is one of the more (if not the most) popular distro for PCs? Just because I see it referenced all the time

Ok after 5months here I have to ask, what the fuck is a distro?
