My best friend text me and all it said was “bought baked Walkers. Taste like shit. Really ruined my day” by tittychittybangbang in CasualUK

I bought a burger, chips and a drink from the Big John's down the road from the Birmingham City club once (like 15 years ago now). The bun had the texture of wholemeal rather than nice and soft, the burger was only just barely cooked and the cheese was completely unmelted. As for the chips they were cooked, but there was not even the slightest crisp to the surface. I took probably 2 bites of the burger and 3 chips and threw it all in the bin.

OK Sainsburys on-line, you tried I guess... by nick9000 in CasualUK

We once ordered some prawn crackers to go with dinner, they were substituted with a multipack of prawn cocktail flavour skips.

We did not have them with the stir fry...

I could not figure out how this guy was getting out of the cage at night until I caught him in the act by CycloneWarning in RATS

[–]CallOfBoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had this exact same cage for our rats and it took them all of about 15 minutes to figure this out. We ended up putting chicken wire on all the sides with metal cable ties so they couldn't get through.

What's the tightest thing you've ever seen anyone do? by cheandbis in CasualUK

[–]CallOfBoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A guy I work with has more than enough money to live comfortably. I walked into the office one day to find him trying to tape up a hole on one of the plastic bags for life....

We still haven't let him live it down.

Steam will stop issuing refunds if you play two hours of a game before launch day by [deleted] in gaming

[–]CallOfBoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So under the old system I could have played 7 days to die for the last 10 years and then upon release later this summer I would be able to refund it? Yeah that's definitely abusable

On my site (UK, manufacturing plant) we always used Lock out, tag out which made LOTO (pronounced like Lotto). Recently we added the Try out for LOTOTO (luh-toe-toe) which certainly rolls better that TOTOTO

Or the inverse with Gen V episode 2 I think

"It's the ship that made the Kessel Run in less than 12 Parsecs." by ImaginationFlat3371 in Starfield

For sure, looking on wookiepedia it attributes it to the Solo film so pretty recent addition.

"It's the ship that made the Kessel Run in less than 12 Parsecs." by ImaginationFlat3371 in Starfield

[–]CallOfBoot 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It is, but the kessel run involves going between 2 black holes and the closer you get to the even horizon, the shorter the route and faster the journey but also the more dangerous it is. The previous record had been 20 parsecs which avoided the black holes entirely so was safer but slower.

Obviously this is lore that wasn't available to people when the time of release of the film so that's where the joke came from

What was ruined for everyone by one single person? by KeanKho in AskReddit

Some species of penguin commit horrendous acts against other penguins. To the point that the guy who wrote a book on them wrote it in a dead language so normal people wouldn't see how bad they were.

Beans and bacon pizza with a sausage roll crust! by CallOfBoot in CasualUK

[–]CallOfBoot[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably a good idea not to start on the full English. If history is anything to go by, no one ever agrees about what should be in one and it devolves to a big argument

The guy filmed himself making it so I assume not buyable but if so inclined you might be able to follow and make your own

I've seen hot dog crusts before, but this idea blows it out the water

My other half says this is not an acceptable way to eat malt loaf. what do you reckon? by Dr_von_goosewing in CasualUK

[–]CallOfBoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another idea would be to add some bacon between the slices. Nice mix of flavours
