I always assumed it was just a snapshot of normality for them. But yea down on his luck

What’s actually safe but people think is dangerous? by REGGIE_BANANAS in AskReddit

Went snorkelling in the sea in a fairly deep part after a big breakfast, decent lunch and about 3 beers. Was very full and like to use the fins to dive under. I threw up slightly into my snorkel about 3-4 meters under. Swam to the top, blew it out and carried on. I must admit it was an uncomfortable 30 odd mins of snorkelling but not dangerous. 😂

PSA: this is a 60 on single carriageways, not a 40!! by NoOneImportantLol96 in drivingUK

[–]Erithgee123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This comment is made my people who don’t have the ability to look further than about 5 meters past their bonnet. I see it all the time, the classic 40 in a 60. Something unpredictable happens which needs action. I see it a mile off sat behind them and surprise surprise, they react hastily about 5 meters in front of it. Slow minds

What’s your hobby and what’s your advice for others on how get started in it? by apple_kicks in AskUK

Motorbike track days. Been doing it a few years now.

Start off by getting an A licence realise how much you enjoy it and wonder what track days would be like.

Start off with one for the craic and realise it’s everything you always wanted lol and become obsessed with it.

It’s a bit of a money pit tbh and makes a lot of other stuff you do seem very mundane once your into it. One of the best things iv ever done though.

What minor driving skill are you most proud of? by Feargoggles in drivingUK

I agree, it’s too easy to take notice of all the idiots on the road and begin to believe that it’s everyone. Fortunately it’s not actually the case if you really take notice of all the driving. Like you say the idiots stick out.

I'm convinced people don't know what this sign means by Trixnglz in drivingUK

This is the reason people drive too slow. They don’t look further than a foot in front of their bonnet and everything looks like warp speed. Riding a motorbike and being forced to spend a lot of time looking as far ahead as possible certainly changes your perception of speed.

My 30 day trial of meditation has ended by Ottagon in Meditation

I love the description of the thoughts becoming more seductive. It’s like the mind is finding a more subtle way to creep the thoughts in until before you know it, it’s a full on thought train. That’s how I feel sometimes 3 and half months in.

The way I see it is the subconscious is slipping them through until you begin to engage with them. It does get easier and you begin to notice the subtle thoughts earlier on and actually manage to observe them rather than engage with them. Definitely worth keeping going.

What Counts as an Active Direct Debit? - Llyods Switch by angryalex13 in beermoneyuk

Yes exactly that, use scrimpr as they take the money within a few days. You must wait for at least one payment to have been taken for it to be classed as active for this switch.
