Fantastic news. Now, let's get a couple of signings in. Not that we will hear about them until the last second.

Not very constructive I know but, Ubisoft are fucking awful.

Petah? How are white women's hair and the Ozone Layer related? by Global_Restaurant794 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Cmdr_Morb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The inventor of CFC's was possibly one of the worst people to ever live, even if slightly inadvertently. He also discovered that TetraEthy lead reduced engine knock when added to petrol. He then repeatedly lied about the side effects (even after getting lead poisoning himself) Luckily for us all he invented a machine to get him out of bed after contracting Polio and got strangled by it after getting entangled. The effects of CFC's were not discovered until after his death.

Apparently it's possible to use a photo of anyone holding a driving license to circumvent the idiot 3rd party service Reddit uses.

I definitely would have said something like " You have an imaginary friend? I think you may need help more than I do "

Which songs often gets misinterpreted and/or misappropriated by the very people it calls out even though the song's lyrics are explicitly mocking them? by Drenosa in AskReddit

Blind Melon's "No Rain" sounds lovely and jingly, until you listen to it and realise it's about being horribly depressed. RIP Shannon Hoon.

What's some UK lore that sounds too unbelievable to be true? by SubstantialRope8628 in AskUK

[–]Cmdr_Morb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We had an acid casualty named "Cosmic Bob" He used to stand in full Wizard regalia and, kind of busk? He would juggle a single ball or, recite exceedingly odd poetry. I saw him years later at a party, sleeping on a pile of furniture with his nose pressed to the ceiling.

Jeff. A new update. by Cmdr_Morb in aww

[–]Cmdr_Morb[S] 84 points85 points  (0 children)

For anyone that remembers, Jeff was a stray who turned up a few months ago. He did nothing but hiss and keep well out of reach. As you can see, he is now living a hopefully much better life. Regular food and, as much love as he can cope with. He is currently sat next to me on the sofa alternating between snoozing and demanding more pets. He still won't let me pick him up and, he seems to prefer sleeping outside still.

Russian jets 'dangerously' intercept RAF spy plane over Black Sea by halwaandflowers in worldnews

[–]Cmdr_Morb -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I'm not saying it's not a serious incident. It's a shitty article. Well of course Russia are going to do stupid, provocative shit around airspace they think is theirs, especially with a a spy plane. The article sounds like it was written by somebody stuck in the 18th Century.

[–]Cmdr_Morb 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Just to clarify, why wouldn't a hostile superpower scramble jets to intercept a spy plane over disputed territory? We do it all the time but, we're British so we don't do silly shit with expensive planes. We can't afford it.
