- Comment on Ghosted After a Job Interview? Report the Company 5 days ago:
There’s no reason in these days of automated systems why they can’t send out a “thanks, but not this time” email, text or whatever.
- Comment on UK investigation to determine if TikTok fails to protect children from harmful content 2 weeks ago:
Some of us are actively trying to parent as best we can, but kids are really good at finding loopholes and opportunities to do what they want to and circumvent restrictions.
I see companies implementing these changes to be a good thing. An extra safety net is never a bad idea.
- Comment on Thames Water has given a 14% pay rise to its CEO and a 26% rise to its finance director 2 weeks ago:
That is taking the piss and emptying it directly into the river.
- Comment on Learn a trade 2 weeks ago:
Maybe he’s learning JavaScript?

But that’s fifty percent of the population.

I don’t believe either of those are electronics brands.
- Comment on I’m personally just not a fan of Busch 2 weeks ago:
What brand am I supposed to buy instead then? Alba?
- Comment on national anthem 2 weeks 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 weeks 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.
- Comment on Former UK minister demands reparations from Britain’s ex-colonies 3 weeks ago:
By her logic then we can just funnel that money straight to Italy to compensate the Romans for all the good they did us.

No quinoa?
- Comment on Keir Starmer says some road and energy projects will be scrapped to pay for £15bn defence plan 4 weeks ago:
It’s the backup plan is case the enemy gets through our first line defences. They won’t be going anywhere.

Because it’s about a view of the music industry?

Or two women kissing.
- Comment on Parliament spending £2m a week to stop crumbling palace falling down 4 weeks ago:
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 How has nobody stopped him yet? 5 weeks ago:
Could have been worse. Could have released another album.
- Comment on GTA 6 will cost £70 - and physical edition will not contain a disc 5 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.

No, it’s evolved unlike American that had to be simplified for the general population.
- Comment on is it spelled "grey" or "gray"? 1 month ago:
The Scottish want to claim something English as theirs? When did that start?
- Comment on is it spelled "grey" or "gray"? 1 month 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.
