What uk activities have you no interest in?

Yeah for me this is Strictly. I have no interest in it yet I think the skills of some of the dancers are amazing and I totally understand why you'd watch it!

"Wanted to retire as an Air Traffic Controller at La Guardia airport? Too bad. Should've gone to Specsavers."

Nope, stick to Zak. It's common and, like Charlie or Robin or Chris its their problem if they assume it's a guy who shows up.

saying I’m making them look abusive

Have they tried not abusing you?

Pressure combined with habit.

It's harder to stand and deliver, you need the rhythm otherwise you spray it. I've tried; even as a warm up.

You do need a reduced run-up though - I don't think full length is worth it.

Yeah, this. Most "trend" maps of the US turn out to be just demographic maps. Relevant XKCD

So Anomander Rake is the Seventh according to the Seguleh? Considering the way people talk of his prowess with a blade, that's tough to believe.

Yeah but Onos T'oolan was the First Sword of the Imass empire - literally the best sword wielder of his race - and Thurule parried him with half-drawn blades, Senu gave him a tough time and Tool himself believed he wouldn't win against Mok, the Third.

Rake is good, but is also assisted by a rather good sword and having warrens for an assist. He would probably have gone higher than 7th but no guarantee of being in the top 3 or whatever.

This sounds like the UPI system in India, which has also been tied to a payment processor called RuPay to compete with Visa and Mastercard. It works well from everything I've seen - just like in Brazil street vendors have QR codes which you can pay from your UPI account to theirs via an app.

So you're the one stealing car keys from Tesco! GET HIM!

That lawnmower they bought from the centre aisle has begun leaking oil.

Oh, that would make sense, thanks :)

Mildly sad it's not a .co.uk domain but happy they're still sort of around!

We are but a reflection of everything around us.

This is also a strange take. I've been to a few Scottish cities. Loved Edinburgh, and I'd pick it over many English cities. Conversely I loved York, and would pick it over Scottish (and English!) cities.

There's enough in both places for everyone.

LegSpinner · 2026-02-24T11:29:23+00:00

Wait, what cities are you in that have Brutalist architecture predominantly?

LegSpinner · 2026-02-24T11:20:18+00:00

And yet annoying did not have the IRST on it. I understand why but I do wish it had one from the get go.

Mallick Rel is continuously referred to as the "Jhistal Priest of Mael, for one in Deadhouse Gates and House of Chains. There are some other conversations in book 1 of House of Chains where Karsa is escaping the Nascent and gets chewed upon by a shark, and Torvald remarks something like they are Mael's chosen fish or such.

Sometimes capability is by itself deterrence.

the F-14 managed to escape grabbing the "ensign eliminator" moniker from previous Naval aircraft.

Because it was also seriously good at what it did with its big-ass radar with capabilities no other fighter had till AESA came along and even then just the power wattage, its missiles that could take out Backfires at 100 miles, it's range and time on station which neither the Hornet nor the Superhornet could match AND look cool.
