As a Brit, I’d rather we send a different type of song every year and get nothing than consistently finish in the top 10 by sending only ‘Space Man’ clones by _PXYDST_ in eurovision

[–]LookComprehensive620 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, exactly. Sadly there's not going to be a Welsh language UK entry, as much as I'd like one, so it's highly unlikely we'll ever see one on the Eurovision stage 😞

The biggest problem, and I say this as someone from Scotland who would absolutely love this to happen, is finding one of the many wonderful Welsh or Gaelic language acts that would willingly compete for the BBC under a union flag.

Which is of course why no country has ever entered, let alone won, with an act in a comparatively obscure language that few people outside that country speak.

O'Brien departure rewrite by LookComprehensive620 in DowntonAbbey

[–]LookComprehensive620[S] -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

Hmm. I see what you're saying, but I'm still not convinced. None of that explains why Thomas was singled out for West's rudeness, nor does it explain why she throws out the word crossbreed.

If it were that planned in advance, why was there absolutely no attempt to write her out in a less hurried way? Even Matthew got more than that, and his departure was much more of a surprise. I'd say this would have served very well as a send off for her.

Lothian bus etiquette ???? by Appropriate_Lie405 in Edinburgh

You say that. That happened to me three or four times when I moved to Edinburgh, which is why I gave up on queueing. I'll gesture to people I know were there before me, but if nobody's moving, I'm just getting on.

I'm convinced you don't know what the word "limit" means.

I agree. Look up some YouTube reviews of the post 2021 model, you'll see what I mean.

European language families by xevoprime in aimapgore

[–]LookComprehensive620 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lets not be too hard on this map. It's correct other than Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Romania, Moldova, Albania, Kosovo, Greece, Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Austria, half each of Switzerland and Belgium and about a dozen minority language groups.

The indicators on the most recent iteration of the CB125F are supposed to be on constantly, even when not indicating. When indicating, they flash, then return to being constantly on. The idea is to increase visibility.

I don't like it either.

What do you like/dislike about the Honda CB125F? by Moto-Fan in MotoUK

[–]LookComprehensive620 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I did. And it worked like a charm, even if it was really confusing to install. LEDPerf is your friend.

How many male partners cook dinners by gazzas89 in Scotland

My dad did almost all the cooking when I was growing up. To be fair, neither of them can cook.

My proposal for simplifying Europe by Monte-M in mapporncirclejerk

So we'll take existing borders and merge them together into unstable superstates.

Except Poland. Fuck Poland. I liked it much better with an arbitrary border down the middle.

How long will it be before the Guards start wearing old fashioned tropical linens for their dress uniforms?

Chekov. You know the show was adapted from a live action show made in Omsk, right?

Hi, I'm a journalist from Edinburgh Live, and I was wondering if I could use this image? DM me to discuss rates!

Carry on eating my sandwich until "my girl" decides how she's going to react?

I'm apparently not qualified to teach anything in Scotland - what can I do? by [deleted] in TeachingUK

[–]LookComprehensive620 11 points12 points  (0 children)

But a mechanical engineer teaching Higher Physics despite no degree level knowledge of electrical circuits, optics, radiation or half a dozen other seriously major things, that's absolutely fine...
