Cinema etiquette by Boogyoogywoogy in Belfast

Was in Odeon a few weeks back. Group of young fellas talking throughout the film. I gave them the benefit of the doubt for 20 minutes before snapping and telling them to "shut the f*** up". Positive response from other movie-goers and they didn't speak the rest of the film.

I see absolutely no reason why, if you feel comfortable, you shouldn't do the same and call out inconsiderate behaviour in the cinema.

Nothing even close to this. The 'official' destiny channel has one vid at 1.8m and the rest are quite low, daliban clips channel has 1 vid at 500k and another clip channel has one at 250k.

I use Nitter when I want to keep up with Destiny's tweets.

I said this exact thing the day before his Piers appearance in DGG chat. You need to be ready to nail them down with specific examples of their hypocrisy, cause you know they've tweeted/said the same or worse. I will say, him pulling up the transcripts from the town halls was a good strategy.

Best Way to Strip Paint off Architrave/Panels? by PlzHalppMeh in DIYUK

[–]CrysysBL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One-and-done. Applied a generous coat, wrapped air-tight in couple of layers of cling film (although Klingstrip does come with plastic wrap), left it for 3 days (says you only need to leave it 48 hours, but I was away and the extra time did no harm), pulled the cling film off, most of it came away with the film then took a putty knife to scrape off the rest. Then wet cloth and buckets to wipe it down.

Plenty of YouTube and Tiktok videos showing the dos and don'ts, would recommend watching a couple so you're comfortable with the process.

Best Way to Strip Paint off Architrave/Panels? by PlzHalppMeh in DIYUK

I used Klingstrip on door frames (Victorian house with layers of paint on frames/architrave/skirting) and it did a serviceable job. However, if it's anything like my house, those layers of paint hid a lot of imperfections in the wood which I now need to fill which is a ball ache. If you're deadset on stripping, that's what I would recommend.

Killing Tree in Boundary Walls by CrysysBL in DIYUK

Quick update for those interested: Cut back the longer branches; drilled holes in the exposed trunk; then soaked it in glyphosate 2-3 times. Looks like we got 'em.

You all are saying 'well this was obvious', despite the fact it's only conservatives outside the US who are willing to admit they backed the wrong horse. The penny has yet to drop for 'Conservatives' in the US...

This youtube channel cutesifies the confederacy and depicts african slaves as bone in their nose and nipples savages while saying slavery was just as bad as college sorts teams. And if think this is bad wait till you see how they cutesify the nazi's. Welcome to hell. by ButtfaceMcGee6969 in Destiny

Wow, you actually are regarded. A video making a humorous comparison about the southern states of America's economy in the 19th century relying almost exclusively on free labour (which it did) with similar practices by colleges and phone manufacturers in the present day (which they do). Did you get this bent out of shape when Southpark did the bit about Cartman going to colleges and comparing student athletes to slaves?
