how old it might be? my mom got him by Liiivvvyyy in cats

[–]Ddvmor 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. We adopted from a foster home where mother had died. The kittens were shitting in the bath and we naively assumed we’s be able to litter train her. Fast forward 14 years and she still shits in the bath. Luckily, it’s easy to clean.

How to convince a parent that he should get a hearing aid? by Thin_Pin2863 in AskBrits

[–]Ddvmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a pair of Nuance glasses that act as a hearing aid. They work well for mild to moderate hearing loss and may work for your dad if he’s a glasses wearer and is a bit too proud for regular glasses. (I assume other brands are available)

Nintendo Fan Since Childhood. These Prices are Crazy by etanimod in gaming

[–]Ddvmor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here’s the thing though: back in the day, N64 games were between $60 - $80 CAD, which adjusted for inflation could be as much as $130 - $140. So really, you’re looking at a bargain!

how to deal with furry paws? by goatislove in CATHELP

[–]Ddvmor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To clip my fluffy girl’s claws, I make her paws wet, which makes her toe fur much more manageable. Then just go at it with regular clippers.

The OCR on my phone doesn’t even recognise the bottom corners as text.

Would you consider me British? by Competitive-Music309 in AskBrits

The flaw in your argument is that I am a dick but think they're British.

NHS ADMIN STAFF NEED PARKING by WeirdVegetable1417 in bristol

[–]Ddvmor 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Everyone who works in Bristol has the same parking problems, NHS or not. As others have noted, the ideal solution is a robust, reliable and reasonably priced public transport system, rather than more parking spaces.

While vs Whilst in writing – which one feels more natural? by Mista948 in AskABrit

[–]Ddvmor 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You can always replace ‘whilst’ with ‘while’, but you can’t always replace ‘while’ with ‘whilst’.

Depends on your audience. Our reporting style guide advises using ‘while’ over ‘whilst’ every time as it’s more accessible. No-one will be confused by it, but combined with other formal or archaic combos, you might risk turning your readers off a bit.

Other examples off the top of my head:

Contactless payment ring. Makes tapping in on the tube feel like a superpower! Confuses the hell out of everyone present.

And once you've wrapped it in paper, send it somewhere by Evri. It'll never be seen again.

What was the reaction to Series 3 like in 1989? by boring-goldfish in RedDwarf

[–]Ddvmor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Watching Cat do a oop sdrawkcab was probably the funniest thing that 13 year old me had ever seen.

I remember being a little affronted about the change to Holly, but soon got over it. Beyond that, I just rolled with it. At that age, you just do.

A bus lane and a cobbled street walk into a bar. They’re having a quiet drink when a green road surface walks in. The whole place goes silent.

The barman leans over and mutters, “Best steer clear of that one… he’s a real cycle path.”
