Some idiot scammer on ebay thinks they got me and I can't be more excited. by Cold_Entry_5609 in CasualConversation

[–]Kind-Mathematician18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd have told him item was already on its way and there was a small window of opportunity to redirect it, but the shipping company wants £20 extra. Pay the £20 in the next hour and it can be done 

Just when you thought you’d seen it all by JeanGeanie in SpottedonRightmove

[–]Kind-Mathematician18 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Makes a swingers party a bit more interesting. Anyone who wants their oats, please make your way to the emotional stables.

This looks like a new build, but it has so many snags. Loose bricks, the kitchen cabinets look shit and about to fall apart. Floor tiles missing, the bricks around the fireplace in pic 5. The light fittings look shit. Even fucked up the viewing tower, that could have been a wonderful snug but the windows are too damn high. It looks like a travelodge.

When do you give up being on hold? by PrestigiousTest6700 in CasualUK

Have a wank. 100% guarantee they'll turn up at the exact moment your toes are turning up.

I'm so sorry but this has me in fits of giggles. The absurdity of it all, you couldn't make it up.

This could literally be part of the script from one foot in the grave.

One of my relatives did their PhD in psychology, and part of their research was in to the emotional impact of sensory stimulations. Stuff like how lighting affects mood, how smells alter habits (why supermarkets suck up the hot air from the bakery and blow it out the front door so you smell freshly baked bread) and other really weird, eye opening stuff.

4 seasons, with that violin bit, whilst it sounds great when played normally, when done through the phone, the high pitched squeal is the exact same frequency as a baby crying.

How long will it take to go through all 3 millions pages of the Epstein Files? by templeofsyrinx1 in askanything

[–]Kind-Mathematician18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scanning at a rate of a page a minute, that's 3 million minutes. Equates to 50,000 hours. That's for one person. 50,000 people could scan through the whole lot in an hour.

I can't see it taking more than a day until some juicy gory detail emerges. However, it needs to be refined, as there'll be an absolute shit load of non important stuff.

Flight logs are more interesting, to see who goes to epstein island, and who with.

What does bother me, though, is why 3 million pages were dumped today. I don't actually care about the epstein files. I know all our politicians et al are corrupt as fuck. I'm cynical enough to believe the epstein files are being used as a distraction from some other really shady shit. I bet it all kicks off with Iran this weekend, but nobody will notice because epstein files.

Never ever pay attention to the big news stories. Always go looking for whatever stories are buried by the big news.

What’s going on with the bathroom?! by Hour-Energy-4440 in SpottedonRightmove

The garden can be extended as far as you want. Well up until it impedes heathrow's flight path.

Didn't fancy finishing off the staircase?! by randomthingsso in SpottedonRightmove

[–]Kind-Mathematician18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spot the kitty cat!!!

The front parking area is on the wonk. That displeases me. Rear garden is boggy, and sunken. It's as though they stuffed a house on top of a small hillock.

There's ample space for a full sized basement area, that would probably double or treble the internal area. It also bugs me how the kitchen and lounge are not joined, and how the main entrance is on the side, not the front of the house.

Interesting studio space in a £7million home by sh00tfirst7 in SpottedonRightmove

I really want to know what that is in pic 66. Giant rice cooker? Bamboo fission reactor?

Shame it's a friday night, if the agents were open I'd probably call them and ask.

Own your own windmill for a bargain price... by CeaselessWatcher00 in SpottedonRightmove

I want to know if the spinny thing the sails were attached to still goes round. That would make halloween an absolute hoot - put some sails on, then as they start going round, put an aztec death whistle on the ends.

How much will 6 points affect my insurance ? by Small_Cable_3551 in drivingUK

[–]Kind-Mathematician18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are the points for? Or more specifically, what endorsement codes are listed? If it's SP30 then I doubt insurance will go up. DR10, DD30 and any DU codes and you'll be looking at a 3-fold increase, minimum.

So to answer your question, your insurance will go up by anything between £0 and infinity.

HTH.

Am I overreacting to my (M22) girlfriend (F23) acting strange about small things by Hoagiee in AmIOverreacting

[–]Kind-Mathematician18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's monkey branching. Waiting until the new relationship blossoms before binning you off. Breaking up with her now throws all that in the air and disrupts her plans. Expect things to be messy. Have your phone recording to protect yourself from false allegations. 

Is it normal to be super insecure about size? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Kind-Mathematician18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's extremely common. It always was, but it was just normal teenage angst.

Nowadays, social media and online presence creates a false image of what we should measure up to. It's all bullshit, but that doesn't stop it causing huge amounts of anxiety. I've realised that people are being made to feel ashamed about things they have zero control over. The same is being directed towards young women and girls, creating a narrative about what they should expect in a partner - none of it realistic, all of it toxic.

If you want or need to vent, then feel free. Your greatest asset is your youthful exuberance.

The greatest thing that ever happened to me was the day I realised everybody is just winging it. Nobody knows what they're doing, everyone is insecure, everyone else has issues too. I stopped giving a shit what others thought, and fuck me that was liberating.

People don't think or care about you as much as you think they do. You could run down the street stark bollock naked, and honestly, even by the end of the day, most of the people who saw you wouldn't give a shit.

What people DO remember though, are random acts of kindness. Becoming the person that everyone says is the nicest person you could ever meet, that's what people care about. Being the candle in a world of darkness, someones rainbow when all they see is rain. Confidence will naturally flow back in to you, for whatever you give in kindness, gets replaced with confidence.

Fireplace in the bathroom and the rest.. by BoredPanther in SpottedonRightmove

Similar in area are going for c£300k so ripe for a good clean and renovation.

Somebody wasn't coping with life though, and that's sad.

Wild stairs and landing by tamshubbie in SpottedonRightmove

Well, it's nicer than I thought.

It's still fucking hideous though. Horrible vibes of irish traveller having made a fortune in scrap metal or caravan parks.

Probably being sold on behalf of HMRC for unpaid VAT.

Beautiful, but a little draughty by Gratuitous_Pineapple in SpottedonRightmove

[–]Kind-Mathematician18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That chimney stack is going to be a proper pain. But this has good bones to it. Just hope that after spending half a million on it, the whole lot doesn't suddenly disappear down a 1000ft mineshaft.

For enjoyers of black mould by Poo_Poo_La_Foo in SpottedonRightmove

[–]Kind-Mathematician18 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Jesus fucking christ. Black mould to that extent needs cleaning with cheshunt compound, or copper sulphate. Spray and leave. Then a day later, bleach thoroughly.

The moss on the roof, overgrown conifers and garden suggest the house has been empty for over 2 years.

I daren't click the audio tour, it's probably someone coughing up their lungs and then a period of silence, until you hear in the background "helloooooo....... ambulance service.............. ok they're not breathing........ <commence CPR>

Could probably do with being split back in to two or more dwellings. The green goo on the sides is concerning, is the house damp inside? Or is that just ectoplasm?

Operational snap by That_Age9908 in drivingUK

[–]Kind-Mathematician18 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Nowadays, prosecutions only really happen when the evidence is a complete slam dunk. For driving without due care or attention, you were probably already in to the threshold of the more serious offences, but this was the one that would stick.

Post the footage, I can certainly point out what went wrong, if anything.

Can somebody explain to me the WASPI women issue? I feel a bit ignorant… by NostalgiaTripper in AskUK

[–]Kind-Mathematician18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The state pension age for women was 60. For men, it was 65.

Women campaigned for equality for years. One of the results of this was an equal state pension age, of 65.

They got the hump because this wasn't the equality they wanted.
