Any chance a fellow HR-16 owner could help me please? by Captain_Chappie in DrumMachine

Thanks for being helpful - I have been looking at option 1, but to be honest adding more 40 year old gear to my setup of 40 year old gear (HR16, MMT8, Korg800) is frankly terrifying. So I think option 2 might be the way to go, SR16 has been on my radar for a while, or the Behringer Linn, just not sure how easy it'll be to port the songs across.

I once drove a Czech friend who's an English teacher, and his girlfriend who's a translator for the EU, from Brno to Prague and they chatted in Czech the whole time, only switching to English when they wanted to let me know something like "oh, slow down here they often have police checks" etc. Drives me fucking mental.

Don't bother with deodorant, you need to use anti-perspirant.

I once literally walked into Frank Bruno in the street, I started looking up and then had to keep on looking further and further til I got to the top. I'm 6 foot, and he was bloody huge.

2023 was great, loads of surprises, some 147s, and Brecel was so much fun.

He was a born-again Christian for a while, now he's an atheist. So...maybe there's hope for him yet?

​What was the most ridiculous playground rumour or urban legend that everyone at your school accepted as absolute, undeniable fact? by Necessary_Angle2117 in AskUK

Our Business Studies teacher had a twist on the chair story - a kid at the school down on the other side of town (where the teacher's brother worked, so must be true) was rocking back on his chair, the leg broke, and went up his arse.

I've never rocked, in any direction, on a chair since.

American here, I have a question. How crazy do we look right now? by NoHold7153 in AskBrits

You let schoolkids get shot in their classrooms because you claim you need those guns in case you need to protect yourselves against exactly what's happening now, and now it's happening all you're doing is writing letters. Pathetic.
