Can i also interest you in the Southwest? Tolkien based the Shire on it you know :) x

Cornwall can drift into the Atlantic for all I care but Devon/Somerset are surely worth hanging onto!

Dammit, I thought we were joining up with the Arctic.

I don't do well in the heat :(

Not in the way it used to be though. I guess what I really miss is finding matches for counterstrike and stuff using IRC, it felt properly community based instead of designed to extract maximum money.

What have you done recently to lovingly annoy your spouse/significant other? For example, this morning I brought my wife her toast singing the first line from "Baby One More Time" in Brittany voice... in c/[email protected]

I will ask if she wants a drink, then request she makes me one too when she says yes.

I never offered to make it, only asked if she WANTED one.

I will then go make her a drink of course, and I'm not sure she's ever found it funny, but I'm amused.

I presume they mean his first meeting with Tuco, can't think of another one that fits the description.

Even in petrol cars automatic transmissions are more common than manual for new cars now. Automatic has just become better and better, and there's just very little reason to have a manual these days.

What are some items that really aren't worth paying the expensive version for? in c/[email protected]

100%

What an insane point to make. If you're a car person then of course you'll admire others' cars, even if you're not, they're often great bits of design and good fun in the right setting.

It's only stupid if you then go out and try to get something to compete with it for more than you can afford to spend. I have no idea what the poster you replied to is talking about.

My English Breakfast tea states it contains 2g of protein. in c/[email protected]

I was curious and looked on the tazo website.

For Tazo Awake English breakfast tea the label says "based on tea brewed with freshly boiled water for 5 minutes (no milk, no sugar), an 8 fl oz cup typically contains insignificant amounts of calories, fats, carbohydrates, sugars, protein and sodium".

Seems weird for yours to have such a significant difference even if its a slightly different type, could you post an image?

What's the consensus on swearing here in c/[email protected]

But certain words DO have power, even if it's just power attributed by others it's still power, and it's really naive to think they don't.

Any Interesting (**Not** Disturbing) Podcasts? in c/[email protected]

Concluded is a nice way to put it...

Didn't they have to quit after doing an episode about workplace bullying at bôn appetit (or some other channel) and then getting called out for having behaved in exactly the same way for years? Proper douchebag hypocritical behaviour from memory.

They had some good episodes for sure, but fuck those guys.
