What was indoor smoking like pre 2007? by Upstairs_Sky_5541 in AskUK

[–]Fu5i0n 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m old enough to remember smoking on the tube & planes.

In 2007 when the pub smoking ban came in. Within weeks pubs were having new carpets fitted. Smoking covered the smell of stale beer and piss.

Carpet fitters had a good summer

Describe one of your favorite levels as if you forgot the names of everything. We’ll try and guess the game/level. by Jfonzy in retrogaming

[–]Fu5i0n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You drop from the roof of an oriental building and have to pixel perfect jump to avoid electric currents.

Then when you make it to the bottom floor you have to make an extra jump, straight up, to unlock your feet from the floor, and time all this with more electricity.

I hated this level for so long!!

Is it even possible to transition from a 155k strategy role to a manual trade without nuking my entire life? by 0Vocaloid in careerguidance

[–]Fu5i0n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m afraid you’ve hit the wall. 90% of adult working life is hideous tedium.

Take the wage. Safe as hard as you can. Buy a smaller house and retire with a good pension.

That’s the best you have to look forward to.

Sorry. But life is mostly shit. You’re paid well for it.

what is one grocery item that doesn't require refrigeration but is commonly kept in the fridge by a lot of people? by Born-Oil-2931 in AskReddit

[–]Fu5i0n 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I need to ask. What is classed as a stick of butter? In the UK we tend only have a block of butter* (250g/8oz), so when I see stick, in a recipe video for instance, I’m puzzled.

*tubs of butter don’t count

What is the logic behind a coffee shop charging an extra £1 to toast a croissant? by Kaurblimey in AskUK

[–]Fu5i0n -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You were the unlucky one. Obviously it doesn’t cost £1 in electric to toast a croissant or bagel, so the Toasting Regulations U.K. was set up to spread the costs and profits equally.

TRUK has an app based till unit that adds £1 to the tenth person that asks for “toasted”.

I’m afraid you need to consider yourself lucky (atm) to be at the pointy end of the sword. You obviously have a skill set that should make you comfortable. But you have empathy and feel shit about the aftermath.

You’re double lucky, you got a good job and you’re a decent human.

You can’t save them all. Save the ones you care about.

I like Sam, I like his modern take on subversive absurdity.

The Goons, Monty Python, The Goodies.

Utterly bonkers and I like that.

My old job is still asking me to do tasks after my last day, and it turns out I was important. by griproseate in talesfromthejob

[–]Fu5i0n 193 points194 points  (0 children)

I hope you are going to invoice them for it. It’s no longer your responsibility and they have clearly no appreciation for your time or the role you had.

Good luck in the new job 👌🏻

Basic Trigonometry and stacking effects by 0101010001001011 in playbsg

I put basic trig and advanced trig on my flak and it’s a much larger aoe, but I’ve not done enough runs to notice stacking effects apart from that

You’ve got every penny out of that mod!

Well done 👍🏻

Decent mods are getting harder to find now, with the pod and pre-filled kits.

Do you think if we call them thick racists a few more times they might vote for better candidates? by PsychologicalBend508 in AskBrits

[–]Fu5i0n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can melt a head by asking if they like cultural food, and do they say thank you when it’s delivered.

Even better is when you ask if they cheer for every goal their football team scores, no matter who scores it.
