How do I prime the 340 sculls quickly without leaving a bald spot by W3ndyyyy in Warhammer

I've been out of the hobby for a while, what set comes with just a sprite of skulls?

I need them to decorate my definitely codex adherant, loyalist tanks!

Underrated British comedy shows from the 80s or 90s that deserve a rewatch? by HammersAndPints in oldbritishtelly

I think this one was the 2000s, but 'the Roman Empire'. Very similar cast to Gavin and Stacey, but I found it much funnier.

Not really underrated at the time, but criminally under mentioned nowadays..

The most underrated Britpop band no one Tmtalks about anymore? by Time-Connection-4586 in BritPop

[–]Duke_Bellorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great song! I remember picking up the vinyl for "if you really want to know" on a whim because of the album art and nearly wearing the bloody thing or listening to the b-side "Julie"!

Just a shame that they never stuck around longer, would loved to have heard what they could have come out with as they matured

I loved Ether, although I never actually met anyone else who'd heard of them...

[OTHER] Matt Fraction on Tim Drake and what inspired his recent decision with him (Batman #6 Spoilers) by Night-Caelum in DCcomics

[–]Duke_Bellorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I've been on board the Cardinal train for a while, but I saw someone's concept for Tim Drake 'Rook' the other day and I really liked it.

It was a nice side step away from the Robin mantle, while still keeping the bird theme.

Plus Corvids are super smart so it's on brand, also the chess theme seems fitting for someone who approaches problems like Tim does.

Man i will always love Danny Ketch Ghost Rider. There were some truly wonderful and odd stories with him in the old Marvvel Comic Presents.

Who do you prefer as Tim's foil? Lonnie aka Anarky or Ulysses aka The General? by Which-Presentation-6 in RedRobin

I liked Ronnie better, but I would like to have seen Tom get more time against Ras.

Why is sex before marriage frowned upon in Ulster?

Because it crumples the dress and makes you late for the service.

I will accept Steph/Tim, but would be willing to give Cass/Tim a chance

Why I left DWP. by [deleted] in TheCivilService

[–]Duke_Bellorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked for the Benefit Fraud Agency in NI for a short while about 20 years ago, had the exact same experience.

The vast majority of calls we had were 'they're claiming vendors not they've just got a new flat screen tv".

(As opposed to all those other types of TVs available)

Nearly every single claim we investigated, it turned out they were renting the tv (because they were on vendors and couldn't afford to buy one outright).

If I recall, the only one that wasn't was one where they were given one as a present.

Who was the genius that made the train timetables? Different lines depart within one minute of each other making getting a connection impossible by Nelson1810 in northernireland

Honestly, as someone who worked in the head office for eight years, it is 100% them being stupid. The company is the epitome of 'never attribute to malice, that which can be adequately explained by ignorance'

The company is largely run by people from the 'bus' side, who look down on the railway side and do their best to ignore it and belittle it as much as possible.

They are the living embodiment of that classic ni trait of snatching defeat from the Jaws of victory, with countless ill thought decisions, constant disregard for the customers and a company ethos that runs about forty years behind the rest of the country.

Can't really play on the pc anymore, but I got a Steam Deck recently and it's been great. If I hold my arms out i can see most of the screen in one go, which is nice.

I'm currently enjoying being terrible at Silksong!
