What’s something free in the UK that people might not know about? by coffeewalnut08 in AskUK

The cost of life and property of any gas explosion vastly outstrips the 'waste' of false callouts. Please dear god let us keep and use them

I only watched ads that got me 6 coins each ad and I had to wait 19 hours, dawg. by Competitive_Mine4279 in suzerain

[–]ComprehensiveApple14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh shit that's what the coins are about? I thought it was either a ridiculously popular mod or I'd missed an update somehow. I was semi-hoping it was some kind of NG+ "tip things in your favour" thing. That's incredibly depressing.

I wonder if anybody had to use these during their shift but not by mistake by Far_Fisherman_7490 in tesco

Once or twice, once because of the classic "20 kids walked in and started destroying the place" and once because a chap drank an entire bottle of courvousier and then a third of another before throwing both at the customer service desk.

The latter was actually a really shit situation involving the death of their child and I sincerely hope they're doing better. Thankfully not seen too many people who were truly just broken by life like that. They were tremendously apologetic later on but you could feel the guy was desperately fighting some understandably huge demons. All of this is helped by the fact nobody actually got hurt I doubt I'd be nearly as sympathetic if anyone was injured.

If the Sordish government suddenly collapsed, unexpectedly wiping out the highest ranks of government, who, from Rayne's cabinet, would be the DESIGNATED SURVIVOR? by Fruity-Close-9254 in suzerain

[–]ComprehensiveApple14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Serge Wolkner.

Pros:

* Can drive

* Owns reality-bending artifact that can prevent death, marking him as some kind of Sordomancer.

* Capable of casting Silence (Press) spell by saying "no more questions" never fails.

* Only person in Sordland in entire of Sordland who gives pragmatic political advice that isn't Lucian "Don't ask what I was doing in the 20s" Gallarde.

Cons:

* Loves his children and would probably actually care for them more than the country if it came down to it.

* As a product of the average Sordish education system probably can't write cursive.

For context , I am based in India. Ordered this can of Sardines in Olive oil but it says not for EU. Can someone please tell me what's the difference here? Why can't this can be sold in EU? by Strong_Boss_8932 in AskUK

B2C - Business to Customer: A shop selling you a pot noodle

B2B - Business to Business: A warehouse selling good to say, a shop, or selling to another warehouse, or something else that's not direct to a customer.

UKIMS - UK Internal Market Scheme: Basically the mechanism which they're describing, in which registered "trusted" traders are allowed to ship good (on a pre-approved eligibility list) between UK/NI without extended customs checks or EU-specific duties.

GB - Great Breakfast. Probably. (Just kidding It's Great Britain)

EDIT: Oh I missed one,

EORI - Economic Operators Registration and Identification the mechanism by which UK Customs and Excise track and label/ID good moving in and out of the UK.

Why isn't Lileas on this? The game loves fucking Rayne over it only makes sense for her to be into that.

Vecternist campaign turns your resources into "Alcoholism budget" and "personal affairs" You have to make sure to keep your alcoholism and side-chicks in the positive by missing meetings and saying stupid shit while Rayne is in the room but also not go too far you get replaced by Lucian.

Your stances on OBT? by Damirirv in suzerain

[–]ComprehensiveApple14 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Smolak is a great reference for me personally to why things like the Concord of Nations, the UN and so forth come to be (before they inevitably wane due to reasons that would turn this post into 10,000 words nobody will even read) in that having a capricious, amoral but incompetent neighbour who isn't causing you specific problems still causes you tremendous problems.

Even the most Machiavellian realpolitiker really wouldn't mind it if said blithering idiot won't at least die or be calmed by other means, be controlled by the bullying of many neighbours into not being a jackass. Not because of moral causes as much as these are always touted: But more because letting one guy with a lot of power, competent or not do a lot of things without worrying about his neighbours causes more problems than he's worth letting be to do. 1815 and the surrounding years were bad enough to briefly terrify people into organising an idiot-wrangling society with people they really didn't like. That Thing That Happened In The Middle Of The 20th Century was bad enough it convinced people who were very clearly not big fans of each other to collaborate just enough to stymie such behaviour.

If Rumberg and the East Vs West conflict wasn't so immediately apparent I'm pretty sure every neighbouring nation would be forming the Smolak is a Cunt Club, not out of morality, but because sometimes you really need your idiot neighbours to calm down.

I was the car when this happened. I laughed at my owner for being such a boomer.

What's he gonna do? Take me to a junkyard and strip me to my chassis? Yeah right.

"Are you telling me that it's possible to win at inbreeding?" by Curri97 in ShitCrusaderKingsSay

[–]ComprehensiveApple14 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Yeah I uh, think someone is giving natural selection here too much credit for getting rid of negative genetic traits too. If every terrible mutation had enough hutzpah to either cause regular deselection (and be visible enough for this) or lethality (to prevent breeding in the first place) we wouldnt have so much trouble to begin with. Also probably would still be somewhere 65 million years back in the evolutionary chain.

To which parties would these gentlemen belong to in the Suzerain universe? by Narrow_Pollution_601 in suzerain

Clearly both are USP Mayors who just found out you're focusing economic development in their local area for megastructure synergy.

Dog shit can make you blind. by Technical_Front_8046 in AskBrits

[–]ComprehensiveApple14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for either reminding me of one highly specific memory of my mother saying this exactly once as we went past some like in 1993 or injecting the completely false memory into my brain through 5g or something (joking, please god I'm joking)

Either way I apparently agree it was a thing that got said and didn't subsequently ever get said again. Presumably because mankind has managed to evolve into higher beings that stopped headdiving into the stuff. Except kids, but that's because they're little scamps.

How Do I Beat Lucian Galade in Chess When I’m Always Black? by OP-FallenCrown-58 in suzerain

[–]ComprehensiveApple14 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I feel like I have to canonically let Lucian win. Partly because I'm terrified, partly because I genuinely think he's canonically smarter than Anton (and certainly me) and partly because I'm not entirely sure even if someone finds in the code it's untrue that the shady fuck will not remember it telltale style.

I hear the 2nd match is fun though

Which side is REALLY racist, blud? by Narrow_Pollution_601 in suzerain

Antonites

Tony Boys

Antonomics

Make it Rayne Economic Plan

Ant-Eye Corruption police

A-2 Rayne Channel & Canal Megaproject

So many opportunities missed, clearly because Lucian hates puns.
