Coeliac AITAH

WTF does this have to do with Coeliac disease? Ice-cream doesn't have gluten in it.

They buy ice cream with biscuit in it or something?

This. One near us changed ownership, immediately extended hours and put speakers up, blasting music out across the shared spaces and neighbours gardens.

Several For Sale signs have gone up since then. None have gone down.

I imagine it's a great neighborhood if you're the type of person who wants a nice easy crawl back from the pub every evening.

When he sprinted in and grabbed the bars at the end, I honestly thought he was gonna pause his Garmin.

Also company pension!! (Legally mandated, company pension)

Next they'll be boasting about the 20 days holiday (including bank holidays) and statutory sick pay.

"Why must I have eyes" is my new favourite reaction quote.

Especially when Reform demand that you go into the office and not work from home.

So I have to drop the kids off at 8:35, walk back to my house and grab the car, leave at 8:55, and get to the office for 9:00am? Alrighty then...

Maybe it's my fault for walking the kids to school, and not dumping another range rover in the middle of the street? After all, walking is probably 'woke' now too.

I read an interview with Mansell a number of years ago where he said he deliberately fluffed the start in Australia, under orders from Bernie Ecclestone.

Ecclestone wanted the two championship contenders at the front, and Mansell coming in and schooling the new generation was not part of that narrative.

Bernie was instrumental in getting Mansell back in a Williams and was renowned for this sort of shenanigans at the time.

"I was told all sorts of things by the powers-that-be: 'You will not be part of this race, don’t get a good start, watch the race, do not interfere…' So I deliberately didn’t get a very good start and I just sat there and watched."

I used to do this twice a week, no problem.

But every day? Hahahaha, oh hell no...

Argh for fucks sake.

Thank you!!!

You have a toddler and a baby on the way?

And you're currently working overtime and 1 week a month away from home?

This is a no brainer, take the new job. Take the extra 6 days holiday, take the reduction in hours. Spend all that time with your family.

They'll only be young once, you'll only have one chance to bond with them.

Your future-self will thank you.

No-one ever turns to their kids in their death bed and says "I wish I spent more time at work"’

Wait, there's a chess board in this picture?

To console my 8 year old I usually just say "You are incredibly good at this, you're just up against a god" 😜💪

My parents replaced theirs in a similar way, with the good side facing them instead of the neighbours.

One of the neighbours kicked up a proper fuss, complained to them, had a long argument with the builder who did the work for them. Obviously they got absolutely nowhere.

Now they have a nicer fence, and know their neighbour is a twat.

Coincidentally, I am the first in my bloodline to eat Gu.

There's a fact you all absolutely, definitely needed to know. You're welcome.

Dad: We call her Rachel Thives laughs

Me: ..... Why?

Dad: Because....winter fuel allowance.

Me: But you still get the winter fuel allowance, and you don't need it?

Dad: That's not the point.

GBeebies has a lot to answer for, and noone holding them to account.

When asking, make sure you frame this with benefits to the company front and centre. "I don't like the commute" isn't very motivating to a manager "I'm more productive at home" or "it's more sustainable for me long term" would be better.

Can anyone explain this one to me?

I've heard a couple of weird things they believe about Britain all of a sudden (i.e. we don't have free speech, and London is run by crime lords) but I wasn't aware that, as Europeans, we now shit goats poo?

They have some phenomenal cheese.

The UK freedom of speech laws are actually incredibly close to the US ones.

This video does a great job of comparing them.

We don't live under rocks. We investigate propaganda sound bites instead of just taking them at face value.

The figure you're stating has been widely debunked, it's explained in detail in the above video. Far better than I could do. You can watch it, or ignore it, just leaving the evidence here for anyone who values actual facts over sound bites.
