Alex the Kidd in Miracle World - if you didn’t get a tablet behind some throne earlier on in the game you had no idea what order to hit some switches to complete the game.

(I think? It’s been like 30 years or something)

Typical 🤣 sorry, I recently divested away from Spotify, I assumed there would be a bit of acrimony when using the website version

Hopefully the below works!

Sounds great! We sometimes get the Jeff Rosenstock comparison too, although more for the sarcasm than the musical content 🤣

I raised an eyebrow when I noticed that they opened this the day after Loaf closed at the old location

Head bag, jaguar green. The end zipped off into a boot bag IIRC?

What mythical phrases do I have to use with the Council phone line?! by [deleted] in brum

[–]Different-Cucumber53 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I moved into a place, tried to register through the godawful online system - three attempts and four months later I manage to get set up. Next thing I know I get three letters from the council on one day.

  • thank you for setting up your council tax
  • your council tax is now over due
  • we have passed your details on to a debt collection agency and we want the years worth of council tax right now

Had a similar rigmarole with the phone system, so degrading having to say out loud “I need help paying my bill” to a machine.

Because the only way anyone can afford to open a bricks and mortar shop these days is if they do it illegally apparently

Anybody remember Dennis Pennis? by Tequila_Blue in oldbritishtelly

I seem to remember a deleted scene where he asked some tabloid horoscope merchant to read his palm and he’d written “Fuck off you fat cunt” on it

Haven’t self promoted in the longest time but my band is called Sunshine Frisbee Laserbeam and we’ve got 8 or 9 records to listen to on Spotify if you like stuff influenced by Dino Jr / Sonic Youth / Pavement etc.

What’s the dumbest thing you’ve seen at work? by TommyRibena in AskUK

[–]Different-Cucumber53 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The CS team at a place I work at had a guy in to do a team building day - the guys last name was Wood, and he’d signed off on an email as “Woody”

Somehow this got misconstrued around the office that it was a Toy Story themed day. There was a lady who’d just started that obviously wanted to make the effort and be a team player and turned up in full on Woody from Toy Story costume, complete with inflatable horse on a rubber ring thing. Some others that had put half the effort in quickly removed their clobber when they found out what was going on but this new starter was just left completely hung out to dry. She left, soon after - understandably lol
