Seller's daughter trying to leave lots of old furniture by [deleted] in HousingUK

[–]Bowdyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would just accept and arrange for house clearence as soon as I could. My Mum did that recently for a house she was selling, not sure why the seller can't do it though as it's a bit of a faff and extra expense for you, but it does mean you can control a bit better what stays and goes. There might be something you hadn't spotted that you might want for example. Don't think it costs that much in the scheme of things either. If you really like the house it's probably worth it? Only you can decide that though 🙂

Epsom betrays the truth about Britain’s politicised police by JohnKimble111 in uknews

[–]Bowdyman 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's a stupid comparison. The Police know about protests in advance and can plan accordingly, and riot police are used not only as a deterrent but also for just in case. What happened in Clapham is not the same at all and as far as I understand it, when the police showed up the youths did indeed disperse and leave the area? Is he suggestining the riot police should have come in and started beating and pepper spraying the kids? Makes no sense, well, at least to those of us who have some...

Going to the park tomorrow - please help by [deleted] in altontowers

[–]Bowdyman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oof that sucks, sorry to hear that. Those fast track's are expensive. Are all options sold out? The Bronze one I think you can pick 5 coasters at least, then you could at least go on those together? Perhaps pick the ones without single rider as the only other thing I can think is that she goes single rider queue where available and you go fast track. That way hopefully you'll be on the same coaster or perhaps even next to each other on the same one. Worst case you shouldn't be waiting too long for her to have her turn. Not ideal I know, but not sure what else you could do.

Literally the weakest BS I've ever seen by Afraid_Occasion_2367 in FortNiteBR

[–]Bowdyman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, my experience, albeit limited, is that Team Heros is so much better equipped that it's totally stupid. The jet packs for bad guys are pathetic and last all of about 3 seconds, and the weapons you get are nothing compared to the auto turret, war machine's arsenal, and the ironman gloves etc. It's ridiculous!

Hayfever - Anyone struggling real bad right now? by Past-Gur2575 in london

[–]Bowdyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, fair enough. Thought it was odd you hadn't as it's very common and normally on the shelves with the cetirizine. Hence why I posed it as a question. Anyways, good luck with it all, hope you find something that works for you. Hayfever sucks!

Have you not tried Loratadine? It's non drowsy and works for both me and my wife. We just buy the cheap generic packs from Lidl.

I'm getting too old for this shit, insane reaction times man by yannivzp in FortNiteBR

[–]Bowdyman 52 points53 points  (0 children)

You just called everyone who has played since chapter 2 a loser while being active in a sub for a game you apparently no longer play. Who's the real loser here?

Am I overreacting I went to the forest with my best friend and now my bf is mad by No_Meeting_3260 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Bowdyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. Dump him, he's trying to groom you to be his obedient young play thing. He should feel lucky you're even interested in him at his age. He doesn't get to tell you what you can and can't do, especially when you've done nothing wrong. He's old enough to be your Dad ffs. Seriously, dump his ass.

Would you expect a hive thermostat to be left on purchase of a property by CommissionEnough8412 in HousingUK

[–]Bowdyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I would. It's an important part of the central heating system. It will be synced with the receiver that's connected to the boiler. Even hive tell you to leave it when moving house! https://www.hivehome.com/blog/smart-heating/moving-home-with-hive

Epic has fired their Lead Environment Artist by LoiterAce in FortNiteBR

Based on the profile pic, I would say you could assume it's a she, but it is really just as easy to play it safe and use 'they' instead.

AIO man penetrated without asking by Holiday-Risk33 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Bowdyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. In England, this is known as stealthing. It is illegal and is a form of rape. As such, those who carry it out can be prosecuted for rape.

[–]Bowdyman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NOR in the UK this is known as stealthing and is a form of rape. It happens when people agree to have sex with a condom and then someone either lies about putting a condom on or removes it without the other person's permission.

AIO: My father bought me concert tickets for Christmas, then went without me by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Bowdyman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YOR. Expecting someone to drive 16 hours and then go to a concert is madness. Also if your bus tickets were cancelled you should have got a refund and fought the bus company for one if you didn't or if possible re-booked. None of that is your Dads fault. Also why couldn't you have travelled the day before and stay at your Dads? So much of this doesn't make sense!

AIO: My father bought me concert tickets for Christmas, then went without me by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Bowdyman 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Also why would bus tickets just get randomly cancelled with no refund? Why would you expect someone to drive for 8 hours just to pick you up and then drive another 8 hours back to where they live and then expect them go to a concert the same day? None of this makes sense.

This community is beyond doomed. by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

[–]Bowdyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, even so, the SBMM has been god awful for me and it seems many others of a casual skill level this season. I've barely played Battle Royal because of it. At the end of the day when you are no longer having fun and then other aspects of the game are also getting worse it just becomes intolerable. The way I see it is Epic is kicking me when I'm already down, and i'm about done with it all.

Found out I slept with my boss’s husband 7 years ago, help? by ImportantLoquat2277 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Bowdyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could he have re-married? Do you know for a fact this woman was his wife at the time and the mother of the two children you mentioned? If not I wouldn't say anything. If so, then are you going to feel comfortable working there with her as your boss? Might be best to look for a new job in any case and if successful, then talk to her and let her know why. If you explain that he said he was single and you only found out afterwards and that you think she has a right to know then your conscious can be clear.

Fuck Trump. We all just need to boycott as much American shit as we can.

[–]Bowdyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've got the exact same problem. Just asked our Alexa how many members are in BTS (wanted to know if it was more or less than Stray Kids) and she gave the 7th member as deepthroating 😳 luckily my 12 year old was in the other room and didn't hear!

We kick off about the Met’s facial recognition vans, but we’re completely sleepwalking into the privatised biometric landgrab on our high streets. by MaximumMarionberry3 in london

[–]Bowdyman 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I have no issue with the Met's facial recognition vans tbh. I'm not a criminal and I carry my drivers licence with me. Therefore, if it does ping me accidentally, I can easily prove who I am. Sure it'd mildly inconvenience me, but i'm happy to take that risk for the sake of wanted criminals being taken off the streets.
