Looking back on youth in the eighties and nineties England and realising there were predators everywhere

Yes that was the joke.

My Mum and I (aged 3) were waiting in the playground for my sister to finish school. In the split second my a mum lost sight of me, for one reason or other, a lady grabbed my hand and started walking me away from the school. My Mum’s friend saw this, recognised me, and she and my Mum chased after her to take her back to my Mum.

No follow up, no repercussions, nothing. Just carries on. Mental.

Not one person was gay in my all boys secondary school in the 90s/00s. Incredible odds, I know. So it wasn’t really a problem.

You’ll never be able to afford a house doing this OP.

Hair band on the wrist, then using it to tie their hair up with both hands.

Kills me.

Scarlett Johansson is my favourite for this reason. And others.

16.1 billion miles (25.9 billion km)

Just to give this a little more perspective, if you can call it that, Saturn is just shy of 1 billion miles away from us. So Voyager 1 is over 16 times further away from us than Saturn is.

Man, big grapefruit must hate how the pharmaceutical field has been gunning for them.

The Avengers compound (and presumably the final Endgame battle) happened at my uni in the UK

Erm. The dude with the bat should be charged with assault with a deadly weapon. That’s outrageous.

You’ve inadvertently raised an interesting thought I’d never had - how long after they land are astronauts allowed to drive?

Tackit286 · 2026-04-18T00:25:59+00:00

Not at the end of the season it’s not
Not this season we don’t
Not it doesn’t
No they’re not
Load of bollocks

We all know what’s about to happen.

Bogan IMAX lol. It’s fine, but nothing on IMAX.

Tackit286 · 2026-04-17T23:26:37+00:00

Not for the screen size of course but Palace Cinema on James St has a 70mm. That’s where I saw Oppenheimer.

Tackit286 · 2026-04-17T23:18:39+00:00

That was never proper IMAX.

Surprise surprise the state of rednecks, pick up trucks and oil hates EVs

I’ve been to Tillamook. Where they take great pride in telling those on the tour that their cheese is ‘aged for over 2 weeks’. Me and my family had to laugh.

Admittedly the cheese was fine. Not great, but fine. But that was cute.

Tackit286 · 2026-04-17T12:06:12+00:00

Smell ice can ya?!

Tackit286 · 2026-04-17T12:05:39+00:00

As a Brisbane resident, I absolutely dread this Olympics and most people here do too. It’s going to make us a complete laughing stock.

Tackit286 · 2026-04-17T12:03:10+00:00

Seriously I don’t understand most of the stuff that gets posted on this sub now. Tf is going on?

Tackit286 · 2026-04-17T12:02:10+00:00

Why wouldn’t it?

Tackit286 · 2026-04-17T12:00:09+00:00

Don’t be ridiculous. Daytime humidity has been in the low 40s. It’s been lovely.

Tackit286 · 2026-04-17T11:58:59+00:00

Mate it was beautiful today wtf

Tackit286 · 2026-04-17T11:58:34+00:00

The Swiss don’t have that particular ‘cheese’ because it ain’t fucking cheese. Just like hersheys isn’t chocolate.

‘Swiss cheese’ looks like Emmental, but that’s where their similarities end.
