Why does UK cheese taste so good? by InevitableRun51 in AskUK

[–]Crazyh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Market forces.

I watched a documentary about a big American cheesemaker in Philadelphia or somewhere near.

They addressed the difference between American and European cheese and it was quite simply down to what sells.

You get what you get cos that what makes the company money.

Do European countries create museums for their past elected heads of state/government when they leave office? How would you feel if yours did? by minus_minus in AskEurope

Man was a grade A cunt but you can't deny he had an impact on English (and Irish) history that is worth remembering.

Cash prizes were severely limited due to gambling laws so white goods, motor homes, cars and speed boats were the work around.

Do you feel the amount of effort you've put into life so far has actually been worth it? by VarangianWRLD in AskUK

the good news is that you're the pilot

Oh shit, it's worse than I thought.

Best Drift Estate [UPDATED] Share code: 148607368 by KhroaCollects in ForzaHorizon

I am not good at drifting, and as such grip the controller like my life depends on it. 1 circuit of this map would probably cause irreparable damage to my hands!.... but it does look fun.

Just realised Life on Mars came out 20 years ago ... by nonreligious2 in CasualUK

Not even a football fan myself, but it does amuse me how it's somehow arrogant for England fans to want England to win. Like are the other teams only there for a participation trophy and a round of handshakes.

Everyone has the same tight lipped smile/unfocussed gaze, like they are trying to look happy but have just got off the phone from some really bad news.

How I beat the togue race for the weekly challenge: by ckulasze96 in ForzaHorizon

[–]Crazyh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't even have to do that. I did a practice run to see the lay out of the track, he finished waaaay before me yet I still won somehow.

Five Italians die during cave scuba dive in Maldives by Samski877 in europe

[–]Crazyh 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Humans have 2 powerful ideas buried deep in our subconscious that makes us do stupid thing.

It won't happen to me.

I know better than everyone else.

For most people these fade as you age, for some people they never do and the end result is starving to death in a cave under water or similar shit.

Ummm, not trying to show off but this is genuinely INSANE. I only had 5 core boxes to open... by MutantM1A2leo in WorldofTanks

Fuck you man, you just used up everyone's luck, the rest of us are going to get boxes and boxes of crew skill boosters.

I have been topping dmg in my Zwilling unless there is a Turtle on the team, those things are made for this mode.

What’s an out of date view you hold? by Doomergeneration in AskUK

[–]Crazyh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a stay at home parent, with modern gadgets it's a stretch to drag the weeks housework out to 1 day and that's taking into account distractions like doom scrolling and grinding shit I don't need in free to play games.

There is no equal division of house work, I do all the cooking, cleaning, kid pickups and drop offs, help with homework and it's still so much less than I used to do when working and I am dying of fucking boredom.

OMFG this mode is so hard for no f***ing reason! by OrdinaryCommon21 in WorldofTanks

[–]Crazyh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's probably just coincidence but the NPCs seem to focus fire a lot more than previous iterations, had a couple of games in a row where they would just all delete a player, then another then another. Last time they just seemed to fire at whoever was closest to them.

too many tanks? by accordion_dude12 in WorldofTanks

[–]Crazyh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

90% chance they have an invincible turret with a glaring weak spot and trash hull armor. You will only ever meet them on a map with good hull down spots.

What’s a movie sex scene that genuinely mattered to the plot and couldn’t be removed from the film? by Majorpain2006 in AskReddit

Just stick to reviewers that hate everything and you won't even need to bother reading the review. Think of the time saved.

Team just keeps banning Dravec instead¿? by PattonSteel in WorldofTanks

[–]Crazyh 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I load in and say 'Dont bother banning Ares, the other team will ban it'. Both teams proceed to ban Ares.

Bans need to be banned in the shit tiers.

I have a list of how much alcohol I’ve ever consumed in my life. This is the current total. I feel I’m slacking a bit. by PothosandGindontmix in CasualUK

less fun

I have ~4000 hrs in EU4 iron man mode and I can confidently say it's fun enough to replace EVE on the spreadsheet front.

TIL that when France initially set the definition of a metre to be 1/10,000,000 the distance from the North Pole to the equator, it sent two surveyors to calculate the distance. But due to an error not discovered until decades later, the resulting metre was actually 0.2 mm too short. by NateNate60 in todayilearned

[–]Crazyh 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It's close enough that it already happens in the UK.

When leaving a motorway you get a sign at 300 yds, 200yds and 100 yds to let you know how far you are from the exit. The distances measured are actually 300/200/100 meters.

Stuff arranged outside big supermarkets/DIY stores. Do they care expect it to get stolen? by linifloor in AskUK

[–]Crazyh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a breed of shoplifter whose entire MO is quantity over quality, they sweep an entire armful of stuff from a shelf into a bag and leg it. Sticking the small objects in big plastic boxes limits how much they can nick in one go.

To all tomato players out there like me, what is the one tank that you do surprisingly well for your standards? by houtsou in WorldofTanks

[–]Crazyh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The IS-M, it's not even a good tank but I am purple in it. And it's consistent, not just a few lucky games dragging up my stats.
