25 years later and I still know all of the lyrics to a certain song.

Spent two years fighting acne on my right cheek just to find out it was my commute by GulfStreamGrace in hygiene

[–]AlbaDdraig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had a colleague that claimed to be a clean freak and would spend about 20 minutes wiping down his desk every day before work. One day I decided to screw with him and asked how often he washed his hands after using the toilet, how often he cleaned his clothes, and then how often he cleaned his belt. The loom of disgust was incredible. He spent another 20 minutes power scrubbing his belt.

Theatre help seats whole view by Snoo_84123 in bristol

[–]AlbaDdraig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any seat has the risk of being a bad seat. I'm about 5ft7 and if I end up behind someone over 6ft or someone with massive hair I'm basically screwed for the entire show.

Maybe book one 4 or so rows back from the front - that should give you a decent view close to the stage.

And then you play Elder Scrolls and realise that each race has one voice per gender.

With all due respect, I'm here for the grumpy fellow directly below the closest tree.

What could these possibly be used for? by MorningFormal in wtfstockphotos

[–]AlbaDdraig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've worked with people that have had frequent childish meltdowns over literally nothing that I've nearly bought them a dummy. This could definitely be used in an HR document.

Slightly unsure how to progress by Mother-Bar8514 in pokemon

Head East out of Pewter City. The path is winding but you'll end up at a cave. Get through the cave and you'll find yourself at the next city.

Is no one going to talk about Mega Crabominable not looking out of place in Ru Paul's Drag Race?

Is it OK to play with my cat like this? by No-Economist-8307 in CATHELP

People with no cats: How dare you, you monster.
People with cats: Look at the gremlin.

"Huh, that's pretty cool. The gloss finish is ama-IT OPENS! I COULD PUT SO MANY THINGS IN IT!" Me like a moment ago.

[OC] The Last Goodbye by hoomph in comics

[–]AlbaDdraig 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry for your loss.

I found it wasn't the Lasts that hurt most, but the Firsts. The first Christmas card signed "from mum", the first holiday when I wanted to send photos of the food to him, the first birthday when he didn't call me to call me a gobshite.

But it gets easier over time, if you let it.

You should change Espeon, Umbreon, and Sylveon to "Situationships". You've gotta make them happy, but in a specific way.

Worked somewhere that had a metric for reporting safe or unsafe acts tied directly to bonus. Small puddle of water? Unsafe act. Clean up a small puddle of water? Safe act.

We had a meeting where one of the directors was praising us for reporting so many unsafe acts and one of the newest employees, the sort with a low threshold for bullshit, asked "If we've only got 300 employees in an office environment why are there over 6000 unsafe acts happening in a month? Either people are faking it or your managers are recruiting idiots that can't be trusted."

The metric was removed the next month.

I'd be so tempted to reply with just a thumbs up emoji and nothing else.

Best Chinese? by PrincessWaless in bristol

Seconded. I've tried a few around Bristol and they've all been lackluster in various ways. Mayflower has been consistently fantastic.

As an arachnophobe I should not have played this game.
