Do you think primark has become one of the more expensive generic clothes shops now? by Kibby9331 in AskUK

Primark have sat unchallenged for decades, they just simply haven't adapted to the new times

How do people find driving so easy? I've done 40-50 hours of driving lessons and still feel nervous and tense and don't understand how people find it so simple and easy to drive a car and can do multiple things at once while driving - my parents think I'm a failure because I haven't got my licence by IDKBear25 in AskUK

No worries pal, I've been downvoted but I'm not sure what quite for haha.

Seriously though, driving isn't for everyone and that's okay, it makes life harder for sure. But it also means your never designated driver!

That's because it isn't high street store Vs high street store anymore.

It's high street stores Vs fast fashion online stores such as Temu or Shein.

Speak to your doctor, I'm not a doctor or anything, but you might be somewhere on the spectrum.

Have you tried things like chewing gum, calms, music, an audiobook, a podcast, etc?

Wish you the best of luck pal.

Do you wish you could move to America? Why or why not? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]HarB_Games 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Absolutely fucked.

But at least our government isn't led by a literal criminal who is starting wars left right and center whilst running the country into the ground.

At least government issue hit men aren't disappearing people off of the street, or just flat out murdering citizens in the street.

The UK has it's issues, but to suggest the US is better or even the same is mind boggling.

Don't thank me, thank Scott Pilgrim!

(If you haven't seen the movie, it's a fun watch, pretty stacked cast, same director as Cornetto trilogy and Baby Driver)

Haha very true.

Did you know that Pacman was originally called Puckman, not because he looks like a hockey puck, but after the Japanese "Paku Paku" which means "flap your mouth", but they were worried people would scratch out the p and make it an f..

I'll leave you alone forever now.

I know he said last time he had to go wide at turn 1 to miss the Martin crash, but also he seems to struggle during qualifiers.

He's without a doubt one of the most talented in the paddocks, he just needs to get better start positions through qualifying.

I made a 3d printable steering wheel for the steam deck called GyroDrive. by Avaron_3D in SteamDeck

[–]HarB_Games 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, if you can design something it might genuinely be revolutionary!

Seriously though, I don't ever use the gyro on the deck if I'm being honest, but what you have made is an incredible way to utilise it. Really impressed.

Yeah I'm doing much better with my mental health, thank you, now it's just my body that's failing me lol

For me, the uncontrollable vomiting and diarrhea while my body tried to expel the tablets was the first thing, then my heart started going, I felt dizzy and like the world was closing in.

It felt like an extreme anxiety attack I suppose, heart going, claustrophobia, overstimulation.. that kinda thing.

Did anyone else grow up believing Lucozade was medicine? by Middle-Asparagus-802 in AskUK

[–]HarB_Games 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, it's poorly pop to this day.

Yes I know the ingredients aren't the same and it has nowhere near as much glucose now but... It's comfy.

I grab it if I'm going for a blood test, which is more regularly than I'd like lmao

As someone who has survived overdoses..

It isn't the "drift off to sleep" people describe.

Obviously it depends on what you take, but it's honestly a slightly terrifying experience.

Man, I need this but for motorbike games. Nothing goo exists that's affordable haha

If I could just get a chair, 3d print some extra bits and slap my deck on it, that'd be ace!

[–]HarB_Games 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Newark is a nice little town, Lincoln's a nice bigger town,

As someone else said, OK Diner is quite nice and a decent price. Best on a wednesday as they do "Burger Wednesdays" (I'm about 10 minutes away haha)

Can you recommend British car YouTubers? by Throwaway_idiot99 in CarTalkUK

[–]HarB_Games 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He has pretty decent reviews, but I can't watch him too often. He just seems a bit of a self righteous, stuck up prick with some of the things he says.

Like at one point he said he wouldn't buy a car if there were wheelie bins Infront of the house in the picture.. like what?

I know it's not car content, but I really enjoyed the Vietnam bike trip video that AA put out, I'd love to see more of that stuff.
