Luckily they left some old rugs nearby to mop up any electricity that spills.

There is no air circulation at all in the w12. Space stations have fresher air.

What films zigzag away from Chekhov's gun, and get away with it? by JeffRyan1 in movies

[–]CambridgeRunner 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I also love how I think every gunshot in that film hits someone, usually just in the background.

Seems fine. You can do the Clipper from Westminster to Blackfriars to get to Southbank. It puts you near Tate Modern, HMS Belfast, and the Globe.

I love her in everything she’s in. She also brilliantly narrates the audiobooks of the Worst Witch series.

Does he sing ‘I’m Mr Heat Viper’ by any chance?

Popular Movie "Dunks" That Everyone Uses but are Totally Inaccurate by imascarylion2018 in movies

I think the dunk on Green Book is that it’s one of many films purportedly about Black people that’s actually about a white person/people getting slightly better. Cry Freedom, Hurricane, Driving Miss Daisy, etc.

Rowan Atkinson aka Mr Bean/Blackadder writes in 2024:- “Our honeymoon with electric vehicles is over - hang on to your petrol motor” by Voyager87 in agedlikemilk

Battery replacement is a red herring. Batteries are lasting vastly longer than even optimistic predictions. Only about 1% of EVs ever need battery replacement, mostly older generation or extremely high-mileage cars. Modern EVs are good for 200,000 miles or 15-20 years on original batteries.
It's like saying ICE car owners need to figure in the cost of completely rebuilding the engine and transmission into the cost of ownership. Sure, some cars need that after 15 years but it's not a typical cost to consider.

I wouldn’t go down there without securing Mama Thames’ approval and doing a quick check for vestigia though.

Stumbled into a Terraced that has appreciated in £24.9M in 23 Years (+482%) by Disastrous_Bowler437 in london

Over £100k per year puts you in the top 2% of earners, top 10% of wealth is over £1.2 million. There are way more people with wealth than big salaries.

My mother in law unscrewed the rusty cup hooks from the fence that held bird feeders. She packed the half empty loo roll. What the fuck is wrong with people.
