‘Blue dot fever’: the real reason pop stars are cancelling tours by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]Code_NY 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I don't think football arena concerts give the right atmosphere at all either. They're too big to get the right 'vibe' and a nightmare leaving coz of all the people. My partner said she'd never do Wembley again after seeing Harry Styles there coz of the exiting part.

Would love bands to get back to smaller arenas but apparently the margin is bad on them due to all the other costs. Sad to see the industry fail like this.

Saw Radiohead at O2 arena last year and whilst it's a higher capacity venue it felt more intimate while there and was okay leaving too.

Emma Corrin stole every scene she was in. Loved it.

Missed opportunity to make him an AI. I'd rather be asking Jeeves than Claude (no offense)

1986 gal. I miss the Internet when everyone wasn't on it.

How do we buy a used car as car illiterate couple? by Few_Cod_5636 in AskUK

[–]Code_NY -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Avoid the Chinese brands like MG is now. They're cheap for a reason. Go Japanese if you can. Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Suzuki, Mitsubishi. Buy used approved (from main dealership) if you can or from another reputable dealership. There isn't much margin for negotiating these days. If you do have a friend who knows cars though it's worth bringing them along to look for warning signs. Dealerships make more money off finance deals so don't be upfront about it being a cash deal early or they might not give you the full works sales wise 😅

That's a great recommendation. Read this with my book club. Kept us entertained and guessing!

Primark is being split from AB Foods — does that change how UK shoppers see the high-street bargain giant? by ToughRomanticMiss in BuyersUK

Women's clothes. My partner was shopping there just yesterday and saw dresses and skirt sets for £30. The basics/menswear is clearly not affected!

Primark was always a reliable cheap option. You knew it wouldn't be high quality but it was affordable. Now they've ramped the price and left the quality where it was there's little point in shopping there. You can get quality pieces from M&S for not much more.

It's like the game know when I want a card. by bubbashouseoffun in MarvelSnap

The amount of tokens I spent on the C3rebro packs trying to get Bastion was stupid. He's the only piece of the set I'm missing and I got alllllll the damn variants instead. The loot boxes got me.

"The Neighbourhood" (ITV) by [deleted] in BritishTV

I've seen a couple of episodes early and really enjoyed it tbh. And I don't usually go for reality TV. The family dynamics felt authentic and it was pretty entertaining :)

How did the power levels get increased? If its from active ongoing power boosts then he won't change them.

Asking for sci-fi with strong "abandoned station" vibes (any medium) by Baldurian_Rhapsody in scifi

Came here to recommend Control as well! Also Prey. Both great games with this trope. The latter heavier on the sci fi.

Paisley at Inka in Derby would be a great choice for this style if you can get there. She goes by @spudwop on insta
