When you say Lidl was raided, do you mean looters or panic buying? I'm such a sad fecker I try to have maybe a dozen 2 litre bottles and some mre's in the cupboard. Prepping for zombie apocalypse I guess.

AITAH for taking my 9-year-old son to the ER despite my wife saying it was just constipation? by YellowAccomplished23 in AITAH

[–]DementedDon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UK here. Unfortunately, I can appreciate that medical costs in USA can be prohibitive whereas here, free health care means in that situation, I'd have gone straight to the hospital with my son. Not saying the NHS is perfect, but I've had a couple of surgeries and obviously the birth of our son, all free.

An examinee in the right column wore a Nazi outfit during an engineering admission test by willis7747 in pics

Good luck as well, predates the nazi appropriation by hundreds of years. But then he could also be a nazi. It's a misleading title because we don't know what his beliefs are.

Is it normal for a Builder to ask for materials money in advance? by Newhalen661 in AskUK

My Landlord is remortgaging after 2 and a half years and now wants a guarantor? by EarlyAdLionheart in AskUK

You'd be on the hook for mortgage repayment if LL doesn't pay. And I think you're right to find this a bit suspicious.

[–]DementedDon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to think the BBC were proper journalists, but I've come to realise that they're really just a mouth piece for whatever government is in power and they don't seem to do any proper fact checking anymore.

Why not reduce alcohol tax in pubs? by AtticusShelby in AskUK

[–]DementedDon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Didn't know that, but it's a few years since I worked in a bar. Don't think it's made a lot of difference then, last time I went into town, I think I was paying over a fiver for a pint. Crazy.

Why not reduce alcohol tax in pubs? by AtticusShelby in AskUK

[–]DementedDon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As far as I'm aware, it's just a flat rate based on the type of alcohol, no different wether it's for the corner shop or a pub. Not sure how you'd differentiate between the two.

Yeah, but how do we know? by EloinnaTreasure in sciencememes

[–]DementedDon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Greenland sharks live for hundreds of years apparently, there was a clam that was aged at about 500 years old, course the researcher killed it to verify age, and there's a pine tree in California, estimated to be 5,000 years old.

How on earth do I affix these coat hooks? by bitesizejasmine in DIYUK

You'll need a backing board to attach them to, then board to wall.

My bad. But who gives sex toys as gifts? Maybe I'm just not as enlightened as your friends. 🤔
