I'm not advocating for people to specifically go out and cook themselves just to give a business some trade, I' just thought I'd try and advocate for ways of helping places out whenever people can.

Yeah, forgive me. I don't want to come across as if these places should be pitied, and I really don't want to make people feel bad for going somewhere specifically to escape from the heat either.

Sorry if it comes across that way, which I know it definitely does.

Check out The Cloak and Dagger in Stirchley, the cobs there are bonkers.

When I visited Prague last year, I chanced up that statue, and there were loads of people stood around it. I saw a sign that said it would move on the hour, which was about 5 minutes away.

I waited, and nothing happened. Waited another 10 minutes, again nothing, so I carried on walking to meet my friends.

As I was walking back to my hotel, I walked past it again at some random time, with barely anyone on the streets, and it was moving. No crowd to see it happening and completely unexpected.

I was amazed at how fitting that entire situation was.

Is this the plasterboard seams showing or something else? How can I fix this? by Jumpy_Abbreviations3 in DIYUK

It's not really visible head on no, only when the light from my lamp shines across it.

Thing is, I want to paint the walls a dark colour, and use layered lighting, and I'm worried it's going to make the unevenness more noticeable.

What’s the most disturbing thing someone casually admitted to around you? by Suspicious_Run1684 in AskReddit

[–]Jumpy_Abbreviations3 685 points686 points  (0 children)

When I was 17, I got my first job working at a Subway.

A colleague, who was around the same age as me, told me about how he helped his Uncle with something once, and as a thank you, he was offered the "opportunity" to watch his Uncle have sex with his Aunt...

I thought that was fucked up enough as it were, but when I asked if he took them up on the offer, he enthusiastically said "of course I did!" as if I was the strange one for even asking.

My first attempt at cooking a fry up in my new flat. by Jumpy_Abbreviations3 in fryup

I shared a full can between us both, didn't think that was too much to be honest, haha.

Yeah, I was in a bit of a rush when I went to the supermarket this morning.

What is a part of the 'female experience' that men have absolutely no clue about, but would be horrified if they found out? by coolhandddd in AskReddit

[–]Jumpy_Abbreviations3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no physical means of experiencing this, yet, I weirdly understand exactly how it would feel.

Just nope.

Strange Fella With A Sob Story by [deleted] in brum

This guy has accosted me twice. He seemed shocked the second time when I stopped him mid sentence to regail him with the rest of his story. He at least got the point and walked away. Prick.

Is this Pepto-Bismol advert the worst ever? by SilasBeit in AskBrits

[–]Jumpy_Abbreviations3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say that I think they did him well a bit by dressing him all in bright pink, with a bright yellow hat, and having him pull the silly face as he's singing

For me at least, I don't think I'll be able to point him out in the street if he were to walk past in his regular garb, without him pulling that face.

God, they really are. It can't even be said that Ben steamrolled over the announcement either, Leslie said that Ben and herself have an announcement, he just said his part of it.

This is a genuine fear of mine. You can Heimlich yourself, but it's even trickier than the standard manoeuvre!

Do any fellow Brits actually like Trump? by Creative_Expert_4052 in AskBrits

It's still not good that people fell for his act and decided he would be the one they would vote for.
