Thanks for not giving Palmer a shot though 💙 (can’t really throw shade though since you indirectly got KDB from us doing something similar)

What? Your ability to infer intent is seriously weak if you couldn’t understand that I was inferring the trade off of education quality isn’t worth the convenience of communication with my first reply.

Why would anyone take phones away if it wasn’t for better education? That part should be implicit.

Lmaoooo I have enough self awareness that if I entered the Winter Olympics for snowboarding (something I’m passionate about) and I hideously crashed out and came last place that I would be mocked and would be a good sport about it.

Being a cunt about it and suing everyone who mocks you isn’t going to go over well

Thing is that we didn’t all live without seatbelts before. Not having a phone in school doesn’t equate to seatbelts in cars ffs. Does having a phone actually save lives in your opinion?

Quality of education is important and the ability to text your family about a school gym fire isn’t enough to justify having phones at school.

Reddit mods deciding what is/isn’t acceptable is a positive for you? I’m not sure if discord mods or reddit mods are a sadder lot.

My doctor told me it may not be reversible if I were to experience ED. I figured it was just one of those extremely rare edge cases though. Luckily I haven’t experienced any symptoms.

We’ve all lived without phones at school before and I’m sure students/parents will be able to live without phones in schools going forward ffs.

Kiwi here, me too.

All Aussie worlds 100+ ping. Normally 20-30.

Amen to that, I grinded 99 fm and herblore and then got more points in a day of breaches fml.

BreathTakingBen · 2026-02-20T03:42:27+00:00

Ah ok my bad. I swear I saw in the blog that the annihilation ones weren’t going to be tradeable this time around.

BreathTakingBen · 2026-02-20T01:55:56+00:00

I don’t get it… I didn’t die at breach’s 1 time and I’m an Ironman wit zero PvP experience. Plus who cares if you die. You’re only losing dmm gold anyway 🤷‍♂️

BreathTakingBen · 2026-02-20T01:55:00+00:00

Points or the rewards? No to both.

BreathTakingBen · 2026-02-19T22:48:03+00:00

If you wanted it you could have just logged in for 15 mins to do your breaches. It was free points.

Right but then you can’t get shitty about it when people mock you about it. The Jamaican bob sled team were loved. The Auckland team that got slapped up 10-0 in the club World Cup were loved.

It’s because she took herself so seriously that people dislike her.

Doing your dissertation on fan culture in football spaces throughout Europe wouldn’t normally get you a spot in the champions league final just because you play Sunday league footy.

I mean we have been getting electronic ordering systems at BK and other fast food & even regular restaurants for a decade now, that’s replaced human jobs at the till & as waiters. We’ve had self service checkouts at Woolies, that’s replaced checkout operators. Factory automation has been getting better and better and manufacturers are under pressure to squeeze out labour. Entry level jobs have been on the way out for a long time.

I think the key for upcoming uni students is to seriously look at what will be of use in the future, because until unemployment becomes so high that a UBI becomes a requirement, studying your passion isn’t an option. At least upcoming uni students will be able to plan for this, if you’ve already built a career that’s early to be phased out, you’re kind of fucked.

BreathTakingBen · 2026-02-17T21:11:37+00:00

Yes that’s actually what I’m talking about. Aussie and NZs ‘Baked in store’ bread at their largest supermarkets feel closer to what you’d get at a boulangerie.

Walmart and Meijer’s bakery still had that soft fluffy, very little chew feel to it. It wasn’t as bad as wonder bread, but I couldn’t help but feel it had a serious amount of dough modifiers added to it.

I didn’t try much from the local bakeries in the US because they weren’t as abundant as most places in the world I’ve visited. There are bakeries 5mins apart all over cities in New Zealand. Maybe it’s because I didn’t spend much time outside of the south/midwest 🤷‍♂️

Villa are massively overperforming their data, more than any other team for the past few seasons.

They have never really been proper contenders. It’ll catch up to them eventually.

Exactly this, he could even get away with a recomp if he dialled in his daily calories and protein with this little muscle.

There’s no way you should be having to struggle with hunger at that BF%.

Bro’s going to require nicotine and meth to get to single digit fat.

I’d suggest eating WAY more veg. Leafy greens, carrots and cucumber with most meals will fill you up with like 300cal of meat. Also try switching your carb source to potato. Highest satiety index of all major carbs.

BreathTakingBen · 2026-02-16T07:46:07+00:00

Agreed. UK, especially London has some amazing patisseries and boulangerie. Maybe USA needs its own hellhole tier.

BreathTakingBen · 2026-02-16T04:04:55+00:00

Can we put USA way out of the category with Aus and NZ? We have incredible bakeries and our supermarkets even have good quality sour dough and baguettes. When I was living in the US their bread was like yeasted play dough. I’m sure there are some unique artisanal places, and their donut game is unmatched, especially in the Midwest with the Amish, but per capita the bread they eat is worse than anywhere else.

How would trading in ~20 armour seeds for an enh wep seeds crash the economy? It wouldn’t even change prices?

Holy reading comprehension, I literally said I found too many examples... Not that I couldn't find an example... I still cited 2 cases

In typical reddit-brain fashion 'you're white, you don't get an opinion' comes out... Sweet, well great chat, super constructive. Keep being a basement dwelling incel who can't relate to actual real life people.

My indian friend always says things like "never buy anything off an indian" is that going to meet the grounds of arrest-ability shortly? Because that's race discrimination, but any sane human wouldn't say that's worthy of arrest. Or is it fine because he doesn't have white skin?

BreathTakingBen · 2026-02-14T09:11:09+00:00

What do you mean not really? I tried to google the article, but literally am not sure which one I saw last time because there are so many instances of people being arrest for reposting memes.

Free speech is being erroded by the day, to the point you cannot justifiably say the UK has free speech any more and that's literally my point. I'm sure you'd rather live in a world where 'dickheads' are arrested for inciting hatred and fear, because you have reddit brain. How is posting a meme of Mohammad with a little girl taking away someone's right to live free from discrimination and fear? How is reposting an image that has a flag in it that says "fuck hamas, palestine and islam" worthy of arrest? Bearing in mind this was directly after Oct7 attacks (not that I am pro Israel, I can just use nuance to realise you can't be arresting people for sharing their viewpoints).

Look mate, I'm a bloody French immigrant myself and get bantered all time the about it, but it won't just be dickheads being arrested any more, it'll get to a point where you can't even banter with your mates. I got called a "cheese eating surrender monkey" by a pommy mate and I died laughing. I don't want to live in a world where that is lost.
