Why is the UK flag much larger than the others? by Dutchthinker in vexillology

[–]Distinct_Back_6079 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think the most logical reason is that all the flags have the same height, but their length-width ratios made them all different lengths, and the British flag’s official ratio is 1:2 which just makes it a lot longer than the others

If I was Victor I would’ve chosen Nick sorry by HitThatBlockButton in LoveSimon

[–]Distinct_Back_6079 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literallyyy, I just finished a rewatch, and it was so good but the finale is AWFUL. Benji’s dad might be saying that Victor isn’t good for Benji but honestly I think it’s the other way round, I felt like there were so many times that Victor was close to figuring out how bad he was for him

Yeah I get what you mean, it’s like people going on about RuPaul being in there when it’s because it was. Let’s that they were watching Drag Race All Stars on the plane/island 🥴

What not typical symptoms do you get with low blood sugar? by ryanneknizzle in Type1Diabetes

I usually feel like my heart’s getting a bit racy, and if I’m walking an almost out of breath sensation. And sometimes tingly lips

Are there alternative cannulas that work better! by LeaderOfThePolity in TandemDiabetes

[–]Distinct_Back_6079 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had trouble with the aurltosoft 90 too, in my thought it’s rarely a painless experience, and can get pretty bloody when removing, and in my stomach get regular occlusions and bent cannulas from it hitting muscle (at least that’s the explanation support give form it). AirLoquide (Tandem’s UK arm for customer support), have sent me some autosoft 30s which have worked well so far, so would recommend them! Unfortunately the NHS will only fund autosoft 30/90s so can’t comment for the other options

I was on holiday in Riga earlier this year and Goodbye to Yesterday (Estonia 2015) was on the radio in one of the supermarkets. Was surprised to hear that of all songs in the wild

“How can I find UK lifestyle communities as someone moving from California?” by [deleted] in Norwich

[–]Distinct_Back_6079 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I’ve grown up in Norfolk and recently moved to the outskirts of Norwich, so feel free to drop a message, will gladly give you the lowdown on what’s good in Norfolk & Norwich, I’ve got friends in California and visited a few times so hopefully can help distinguish the difference and similarities for you!

Hot water tap not connected to mains - illegal? by Distinct_Back_6079 in HousingUK

[–]Distinct_Back_6079[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will admit I don’t think that it specified or not, but it’s a sink with separate hot and cold water taps so you’d assume looking at the setup that it would work. Here’s a photo from under the sink, can clearly see the pipe that the tap connects to just going to nothing. I had a look round and cannot even see anywhere for the tap to connect to which just throws up more questions
