And the train magically drops you off outside your destination too, and totally not several miles away.
- Comment on No one else in the world matters but me 2 weeks ago:
Neither do I. It very much applies to the UK.
- Comment on Energy minister says UK must ‘do whatever it takes’ to avoid gas supply crisis 2 weeks ago:
… Do you think that converting tens of millions of buildings to heat pumps by mid winter is a quick and easy solution?
- Comment on Online betting firms to pay billions more in UK tax, Reeves confirms 2 weeks ago:
It’s a start, but ban them from advertising too. Their ads are everywhere in every medium like cockroaches constantly tricking the poor and foolish out of their money.

Fuck yeah trains! Three times the price of driving and takes an hour longer on the rare occasions where it actually turns up on time!

Isn’t that just like a normal every day thing around the world though
- Comment on Anon is British 2 weeks ago:
It’s better thought of as a tax that funds the BBC, but it can’t be called a tax because it’s not run by the government.
It’s an outdated idea though that doesn’t make any sense in this era because it means that technically if you want to watch any live TV at all then you have to pay the BBC money even if you don’t watch anything by them.
Or you could just not answer the door in the extremely rare case that any enforcement officers actually come around and instead watch TV for free.

In the UK we call them Bum (butt) bags

Please no, there’s already people rioting over Afghans immigrating here, we don’t need to add Yanks to the equation

My dream would be to get a remote nightshift job and live on a house by the beaches of south Thailand

That’s the median disposable income, which is significantly lower than the gross income used and misrepresented in this study.
- Comment on Rich People Are Becoming Less Willing to Help With the World’s Problems 3 weeks ago:
The threshold for “rich” here seems extremely low. £45K household income? Two people on £23K exceed that.

You can pause stardew valley, just open a menu
- Comment on Me when Valve releases a phone 4 weeks ago:
The market for a setup like that would be pretty small. The average person just has a craptop that isn’t switched on most of the time. Many don’t even bother with that.
- Comment on GTA IV Is A Snapshot of the World Before It Changed 4 weeks ago:
I went on 4chan back in 2004. I was 14 and I remember thinking I found some super cool secret website full of badasses.
I got bored after a few weeks. I returned when I was 18 and realised it was full of socially mal-adjusted teens pretending to be super cool badasses, with a few pedophiles mixed in for good measure.
- Comment on Five years from launch the PS5 is a roaring success, so why doesn't it feel like it? [Eurogamer] 4 weeks ago:
The main reason why I got one was because my PS4 was on its last legs after the hammering it got during 8 months of covid lockdown and furlough, and the whole console was cheaper than a new graphics card for my PC (+the other upgrades it needed to accommodate it).
The new controller is epic and that astrobot demo game really showcased its capabilities, but no other games have used it, even other exclusives like god of war. Wasted opportunity.
- Comment on Anon travels overseas 4 weeks ago:
And honestly us Brits are pretty fucking lazy when it comes to walking compared to a lot of Europe too
- Comment on Anon travels overseas 4 weeks ago:
Something I noticed when visiting the US. I went to one of their Wendy’s to try it out, and ordered a small chicken burger. It was very dry and bland, not really that good, yet I looked up the nutritional info and apparently this small burger alone was over 1200kcals??
I’m fairly sure it was the bun that did that as I doubt they raise some kind of super chicken with an energy density similar to petrol.
Anyway, surprise surprise I ended up with heartburn afterwards.

At this point if they pass it should be considered a fluke and they shouldn’t be trusted behind the wheel

I replayed that game so many times and I think that mission only played through properly once

- Comment on ‘Grand Theft Auto VI’ Is Postponed Again — to November 2026 5 weeks ago:
We’ll see what comes out because firing people for trying to form a union is extremely illegal here and could lead to every fired employee getting a year’s pay in one go

That would guarantee your death
- Comment on Why isn't the rest of the world doing anything about the USA? 1 month ago:
The US is already sanctioning itself through tariffs, and the rest of the crap is domestic problems.

This is true. Black and White might have been awkward and buggy but it pioneered a whole sub-genre.
