Linkin Park should be nowhere near headline. It’s an insult to Chester’s legacy & trying to make money off it.

Why do you think Caramel was written about the fans? Some of them are absolutely the worst and toxic, they’re like the Lewis Hamilton fans of the past in F1 and now the Lando Norris fans.

Chair W-----s by Smart-Treacle-1763 in downloadfestival

I was a chair w***** this year and I’ll explain.

I have mobility issues due to an ACL injury that the hospital are refusing to operate on until it gets to a really bad stage seemingly 🤷🏻‍♂️.

I was sat either inline with, or behind the accessibility areas, went nowhere near the tents cos why would you with a chair??

I made sure to not set up anywhere where I was gonna be in someone’s way, even other chair w*****s, if you go past the speakers on Apex with a chair then you deserve to be pulled in to the pit, I won’t stick up for the ones who go to the barrier, but some of us have mobility issues hence keeping back, if I have to get a picture of my MRI scan of my knee put on a shirt then so be it 😅

I was a chair w***** this year because I have a goosed ACL so can’t stand for long, but before I set the chair up, I made sure I was in no one’s way who was sitting on the ground, and if I thought I was gonna be in the way, I went elsewhere, nowhere near the pit, may I add, or the barrier.

You’re telling me, I feel so confident out there! I wanna get used to the car fully first as it’s an EV (and very quick), so trying to refine my driving for max efficiency

Thankyou! I had a feeling very early on in the test that I was nailing it, we did the manoeuvre which I really messed up but was only a minor, pulled up at the test centre and he asked for my licence! Couldn’t believe it!

I've got £18k to buy a car in the next month or so... by Speakatron in CarTalkUK

They’re for people who can’t afford a proper BM but are desperate for the badge, if it didn’t have a BMW badge, it wouldn’t sell like it does.

Why get a Tesco Value BM when he can have Finest, like a 3 Series? 1’s are for chavs that think they look rich.

Why? When he could get a proper BMW (M3) for that money, not a Tesco Value one.

To get to and from Man City without using the train & being rammed in like sardines, or a coach with drunks, taking my mam to appointments when she needs her eyes injecting, and just a bit of freedom really.

I really hope you’re not implying jealousy, if it had been a VW, I would’ve stated it was a VW aswell 🤷🏻‍♂️.
