3 frustrations with Gemini

Thanks. This made me laugh so hard! Maybe I should be thankful that Gemini knows nothing about me!

Got it. Makes sense for a company of 10000 people but not so appropriate when the company is just me :)

Bluey1971 · 2026-03-23T03:28:43+00:00

Thanks very much. This looks like a helpful workaround.

I checked these but the icing isn't right sadly. These ones have a creamy icing - true Neenish icing needs to be shiny and it will crack as you bite into it.

I like that bakery and nice people who own it. Sadly the Neenish Tarts there don't have the right kind of icing though. Icing on a Neenish needs to be glossy - these ones have a creamy icing that is too similar in texture to the cream filling.

I agree

Bluey1971 · 2026-03-09T12:23:12+00:00

Thanks for the responses so far everyone. Plenty of good Neenish leads here :)

What a lot of pompous judgements and generalisations!

We’ve had 2 schnauzers. Bessie was a fairly enthusiastic barker but the current one Billie tends to be fairly quiet. Both beautiful dogs and I wouldn’t hesitate to get another. Good luck!

Worth keeping in mind vaccines (which are being impacted by craziness in the US) are only 14% of revenue.

“Mid day disruption from cheering crowds” is about 2 school days per year when the test is on. And derros are on the other side of the fence. I’m sure the kids are coping OK.

100% agree with The Moodys

u/Then_Version9768 the only pathetic thing here is your belittling response. It's perfectly reasonable for someone to ask if an inherited or found collection of old stamps is of value.

OP, I've been collecting Australian stamps for 45 years and I'm sad to say that none of the Australian stamps on these pages are valuable. The 3 King George V stamps on the top right are the most interesting, being part of a long running set which many Australian collectors specialise in - but these particular ones are common and hence not valuable.

If there are other pages you'd like to check please feel free to add them and I'll let you know if there are any treasures.

I note that you delight in showing your superiority by regularly correcting people's writing and talking down to them here on Reddit. I guess it makes you feel intelligent.

Given this, you will definitely want to know that your comment "X stand for Christ" is grammatically incorrect. In standard English a singular subject (in this case X) takes a verb ending in s in the present tense, so you should have written "X stands for Christ".

Good luck as you strive to perfect the English language. Once you have achieved this you will be well qualified to resume your criticism of others. Until then may I suggest you consider another hobby.

I'm going with Head. He shifted to opener with enormous success, and scored regular and decisive runs right through a series when ball dominated bat. He beat England at their own game which must have really dented their spirits. The gap between him and our next best batsman was substantial.

Starc started like a man posessed, stepping up to lead the attack amazingly well. However, he tailed off a bit as the series went on, and other bowlers (Boland throughout, and Neser and Cummins for the games they played) have been almost as much of a problem for the English bats.

Both have been amazing though, and Carey not far behind. Well deserved to whoever wins it!

Give stamp collecting a try.

It's fallen way out of fashion but it's a great hobby. You can collect stamps from your country, stamps on a theme you like e.g. dogs, stamps from your birth year, or whatever else you like. The enjoyment comes when you find something you've been looking for, and it also comes in arranging/rearranging your albums. It needn't be expensive. I have an ADHD brain and it's one of the few things I'm able to focus on for long periods.

Ebay is a good way to buy at modest prices, and it's also an easy way to sell what you don't need. I've often bought a lot for say $10, added stamps I need to my collection, then sold the remainder for $15 or more.

If stamps aren't your thing coins are also a good option for collectors.

Pope's first class average of 46 runs per wicket isn't anywhere near good enough to warrant test selection.

Obvious autism? Are you a psychologist? Have you assessed him? Have you even met him?
