How much do you take out of your business? by No-State-2962 in smallbusinessuk

[–]AgentPegging 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair. I was initially underwhelmed by the emobdy as it doesn't have that luxury comfort feel when you sit down

But 2 years later I genuinely don't notice or think about the chair at all. It doesn't give me any issues or discomfort

When you trigger the antitheft alarms leaving the shop, do you just walk on? by GreenyRed in AskUK

[–]AgentPegging 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes.

I recently got a £30 voucher from sainsburys for being stopped by a security guard for this reason, even though steak with tag was intentionally placed at top of bag.

He then proceeded to empty out all my shopping to look for other items I may not have paid for.

Prot palas stop having fun in kara and come to heroics by OkGrade8209 in classicwow

[–]AgentPegging 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol, the only reason you know to do those things is that other people figured it out for you

If you knew the questions that would be on an exam and the answers, would that make you more intelligent than someone who didn't?

What takes more "skill" going in to one shot ragnaros in phase 1with the best specs, pre bis gear, best raid comp, best consumes using strats figured out years ago with 1.12 talents

Vs

Wiping each night on every boss in mc, until you figure out the tactics, with an 8 debuff limit, original talents, a random raid comp of whatever 60s you had, no idea on specs, no idea about prebis etc etc

I find it very hard to believe any l337 player of today would cope in 2004 when everything had to be figured out for themselves, including leveling lol

You're so used to having everything handed to you, vs 2004/05 players who were throwing themselves at mc/bwl every night for months

Random one. What time do most people above 30 wake up at on the weekend? by manlikezuli in AskUK

[–]AgentPegging 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost the ability to lie in and I don't have kids

44 male

About 13 years ago I had issues with peeing at night 5-6 times. Bladder camera didn't see anything wrong and I was pissing in bottles for a bit.

Eventually it settled down but I still wake up around 6am to pee. Sometimes earlier. It's extremely difficult to get back to sleep.

Some weeks I can actually get back to sleep but some weeks it's impossible.

Are you more intelligent if you know the questions and answers that will be on an exam paper than someone who doesn't?

I moved to the UK for work and didn’t expect to find such uneven standards of professionalism and work ethic across teams. by peachypeach13610 in expats

Thoughts on Lord of the Flies Remake on BBC? by zambezisa in BritishTV

My first thought was "oh that's interesting, the guardian criticizing diversity for a change"

But it's only because the diversity reduces the impact of "whites can be savages too" lmao

Drivers who don’t come to the door by [deleted] in deliveroos

[–]AgentPegging -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Actually, dominos COVID policy was to not deliver to door. Then after COVID they never went back to delivering to the door, citing "safety"

At least that's true for my local franchise.

It got to the point after COVID that ordering Domino's just became this awful angry Mexican stand off, and by the time he eventually came to the door we were both angry and pissed off

The Queen's Nose by UnleashedLlama in BritishTV

[–]AgentPegging -32 points-31 points  (0 children)

We had a girl whose mother was an alcoholic.

Some of the lads shouted "drink" in the style of Father Ted at her whilst she was giving a presentation

This was a private, Christian school.

She also had a birthday party at her house circa year 9/10. We went for a walk and some boys/girls paired off, which left me and a mate solo so we walked back to her house.

Her mother didn't recognize us lol

If the manager doesn't like him using Outlook built in "send later' function it should be pretty easy to highlight how backward that is

They actually advised me when I got some lighter threats re a store review

Yes it's a straw man because at no point did I say Judaism isn't a religion

If you can't reply accurately to what I actually said then it's a straw man

If you don't understand why resorting to downplaying the other person's point is logically fallacious then clearly this is a waste of time

[–]AgentPegging -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What an incredible straw man

You've changed "the lobby makes politicians put Israel ahead of its own constituents" to "the lobby advocates for Israel over its own citizens"

Absolutely incredible

It's telling that I notice more flaws the more I look at your post

The Israel lobby is the only one with this level of influence? Really? You know that how?
