That was the smart gremlin. Creased me up as a kid. The first film scared the shit out of me. This film made it all funny and he was one of the best bits!

Peer pressure. Kids at school get the new greatest phone and tell their parents. Parents feel compelled to get it for their kids.

Weirdos make the world interesting. 🙂

I've heard of spam fritters but never had one. I've eaten a lot of 'old fashioned' foods though like toad int' hole, kippers, faggots, etc.

Yeah it is. Sorry I was talking mainly of my experience - I left school to go to college across the country but everyone I knew carried onto sixth form.

That along with all the other complications mentioned in another comment (HE College vs uni) makes for an exciting mess. 😁

Oh and it's called 6th form cos you're in year 6 of secondary school. Which is also called year 12!

If you have the puppet manipulation technique you could transmit your self into a mechanical robot that fights cursed spirits - or even become a baseball server!

I'm going to take this opportunity to re-use the phrase I sent my Chinese friend!

UK:

  1. Pre-school
  2. Primary school
  3. Secondary school (BUT my old HS literally has "high school" in the name so it's interchangeable with "HS")
  4. College (16-18)
  5. University

It can vary on area though. Some people have middle schools but I've no idea what ages they are since I've never seen one. Also, some UK people will hear me say "HS" and assume I'm American, not realising some secondary schools are called "high school"

To complicate matters more a "public school" is private.

ETA: I think US grades are off by one to UK "years". Though I've got into arguments with Brits about this I can only reference my own life. So our "Year 7" kids starting high/secondary school are 11yo. I believe that's 6th grade in the US?

It varies. If I become lucid then shit's about to go down so my brain slips out of my body and I start doing sick moves like Neo. That requires 3rd person to see the full awesomeness of the stuff I do.

Calmer more dreamy-dreams it will be first person with occasional slip outs to close 3rd person to the side of my head.

Non-lucid nightmares tend to be first person.

But none of these really do the feelings justice. My sight can be 3rd person but my emotional state and how I feel is very first person. If that makes sense?

Yes and the bastards won a contract with the NHS and they're fucking evil.

I've not seen some of these words in decades.
