Not like the picture. The rope was more to stop you falling off the bench where you were sitting up asleep.
For an extra penny [than a one penny sit up] you could pay to sleep literally hanging over a rope. This was possibly marginally more comfortable, as if you fell asleep the rope would prevent you from slipping onto the floor or head-butting the bench in front of you.

In the UK it’s all rolled up into the “service charge”. Including the “loads of other companies couldn’t manage themselves properly and went bust and we had to take on their customers fee”

Sorry I mispoke on sausages. The vast majority contain pork. Also, no, must sausages are at least 52% “meat” which.co.uk/…/how-much-pork-is-in-your-sausage-ag…

Strips are clearly bacon. The vast majority of sausages are pork.

If you don’t say the incantation exactly right it works on iron instead of lead. You now have a stammer.

nausea, diarrhea, indigestion, loss of appetite, increased sweating, shaking or trembling, decreased appetite, inability to ejaculate, and decreased libido.
Oh and projectile vomiting if you miss a dose, messed up sleep if you take it to late in the day, falling asleep at your desk if you take it too early.
Brain jolts, anxiety, vomiting when you try to come back off it.

On a side note, I’m pretty sure the way that this site does the accept cookies thing is how whoever in the EU came up with the idea imagined it would be implemented.

I am.
I just don’t understand how they can work.
If you don’t use them for every transaction how do they stay synchronised with the bank’s records of how much you have in your account?
When the power is out and the bank can’t check their computer, what’s to stop someone turning up with a bank book that says they have £1 in it and saying that there’s more because they transferred it online before the power went out? Or, of course, the book saying they have more than they do because they took some out before power went out?
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
So you have to use them every time you use the bank, I’m assuming this also means that these accounts don’t allow you to do any kind of internet or telephone banking.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Presumably even there though they check the details from your book against the computer system, to not only check that the book is accurate and that the branch has enough cash on hand to fulfil your request? The computer system that has had no power for a week.

If productivity is going up wages should go up. However what has been happening is that the extra money has been being funneled into the pockets of the rich. I’ll bet you the board and senior management ain’t giving themselves inflation based pay rises.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
That’s not how inflation works. Inflation going down means they just stay around 80 and in theory your wages gradually come up so 80 now feels like 40.

In that scenario most of the food has gone bad anyway and is stuck in distribution centres as the shops can’t send orders up through the supply chain.
Also, without power most places couldn’t take cash. Tills are computers that do all the maths so the 16 year old serving you doesn’t have to they also track inventory going out.
The cash that there is is stuck in banks because the banks have no way of knowing what money is yours as we haven’t had bank books for like 20 years already.
