It means something in regard to military contracts, though it’s still the bare minimum. For consumer products, though? No. There’s no law, as far as I know, against ‘misuse’ of the term. That means companies can freely market their consumer products as military grade, even if it wouldn’t actually meet the specs. Nevermind the fact that it’s misleading. They know people see ‘military grade’ and think that it’s top quality, despite that not actually being the case.
- Comment on They just made the winning bid 2 weeks ago:
Exactly the point. Military grade means nothing in regard to its actual quality. It’s just another inane marketing tactic.
- Comment on They just made the winning bid 3 weeks ago:
The cheapest possible product that meets the requirements.
- Comment on Rotherham council accused of ignoring ‘flag terror’ with £500 grants for St George’s and union flags 4 months ago:
I don’t live in Rotherham itself but I do live in the area, and I’m getting seriously sick of seeing the damn things. There’s nothing about our nation to be proud of right now, and whenever I see our flag shoddily hoisted, all I can think is that the person who did it is a xenophobic, nationalistic prick.

Now where’s the poetic gooner?
- Comment on I support this 6 months ago:
Yes, it is. I had assumed you were British, since the tweet is also about a British, albeit multinational, store chain. My bad, perhaps I should’ve looked at the instance you’re from.

Do you live in a city? In the admittedly pretty large village I live in, I hear it almost every time I go to Home Bargains.
- Comment on Who did this? 6 months ago:
It’s because actual, genuine smiles usually involve the eyes. In Mr.Beast’s case, he just has still, dead, emotionless eyes, that when accompanied by his grin, makes him look like he’s enjoying watching some sick, perverted shit, instead of expressing joy or happiness.

I’m sad I no longer have my files from my time spent in college doing games design, would’ve loved to see if I could do better now.

I don’t think anyone likes them, but maybe autistic people are more likely to absolutely detest them. I know my partner certainly does; she cuts them out of every shirt she wears… Including some of mine, unfortunately.

Oral what now?
- Comment on Definitely how it went for me 6 months ago:
Yeah, I know. Doesn’t stop my stupid brain from getting anxious though, especially when they’re being a bitch to get in/out.
- Comment on Definitely how it went for me 6 months ago:
Urgh. Or every time you change a part. I like the idea of building and upgrading PCs but Christ is it stressful. Maybe if I were rich I wouldn’t care so much, but worrying about mishandling PC components isn’t great for my hair colour.

Honestly if Imgur doing this causes more people to stop using it, that’s fantastic.

Labour is supposed to help the people they have been actively working against, it’s no surprise he’s wildly unpopular.

It’s honestly impressive how many bad decisions one government can make.
