- Comment on national anthem 2 hours ago:
I much preferred it before Netflix got hold of it. It’s not bad now, just different.
- Comment on Delivery firm Evri sues BBC for £1.2m over Panorama documentary 3 days ago:
If the BBC lose, they should send individual pound coins via Evri, and if they don’t all turn up then Evri should have to pay it all back.

By her logic then we can just funnel that money straight to Italy to compensate the Romans for all the good they did us.

I’m sure we can knock together a beige office space for them instead, without a subsidised bar and maybe with a clocking in machine so they can justify their pay.

- Comment on GTA 6 will cost £70 - and physical edition will not contain a disc 2 weeks ago:
Good. The games I’ve got on physical disc need installing, and the disc is effectively only proof of ownership at that point to start the game. Plus I see no point having to install a 32gb game from disc, then having to download multi-GV updates for it.
I also don’t need a disc getting misplaced/broken. I’m fine with digital.

- Comment on is it spelled "grey" or "gray"? 3 weeks ago:
I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted either.
To answer your question it’s neither and both. I can appreciate it might seem pedantic from an American point of view, but not from ours. It’s our language, created here and named after us, it doesn’t require the British/European prefix. It is simply English.
American, Canadian and Australian English should have suffixes as simpler variations of the default.
