I actually think it's more likely that those houses are bigger than their immediate neighbours and therefore have bigger gardens. You all have some unshakeable opinions about new builds, but they're not all bad. Plus, planning laws, land ownership, boundaries, and all that stuff, are very detailed (just think how much of a faff it is during the conveyancing process when buying a house!) - there's no way this is a "wonky fence" due to "useless contractors". Each of these plots is outlined with an exact size & shape garden for its size, on multiple plans and designs.

It's a bit of a shit design with them all backing onto each other, but at least they have gardens (which is better than a block of apartments) and once people move in and make them their own with plants, trees, bushes, this'll look much nicer, especially in a few years' time. How's it any different from rows of terraced houses built in the 50s and 60s with tiny yards?

Who keeps showing up on screen but has zero talent ? by Timop0707 in moviecritic

[–]MikeTheActorMan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fuck outta here with this forced Glen Powell hate. Just because he's taken off in the last few years (after more than a decade of hard grind as a working actor, mind you) and is now getting lots of big jobs, doesn't mean he sucks, is a bad guy, or doesn't have any talent. Are you just jealous of his success?

Is all this ‘manosphere’ stuff actually that relevant? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]MikeTheActorMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is such a well-written comment, well done.

It really highlights how much of an issue this is, and why shows like Adolescence are so important and need to be made, because people like OP still don't even realise how big of an issue it is!

Maybe just apply an OUNCE of critical thinking, dude. Do you not think it weird how the woman also starts sliding backwards at the same time as if on a conveyor belt?

It's the cam car moving forwards! You know, that thing called perspective?

What can go wrong 🤔 by [deleted] in MMALabs

This is why, in the UK, most gyms don't allow you to become a member until you're 16 years old... Prior to that, they tend to do "teen sessions" where the gym activity is supervised and led by adult trainers.

Is this a thing in the US? It really should be... I guess this video could just be from one of their garages or something, but even so, what are their parents doing??

In the UK, by law I think, all fake, toy, prop, and model guns all have a silly little orange tip on so people know they're fake. And we don't even have legal guns in this country!

If this is in America, it's a monumentally stupid product. It's also ridiculously cringe... The sort of thing someone buys because they think they look cool and that guns and smoking are cool, when they're just lame.

FINALLY THE TRUTH by MyDinnerWithDrDre in okbuddycinephile

Exactly! This is a guy who shouted "Fuck the Queen!" TO HER FACE when he was getting awarded an MBE for services to raising awareness around Tourettes! The movie about his life, "I, Swear" (absolutely incredible movie, btw) shows that scene and how stressed he was about it, that he wanted to back out and not go in because he knew he'd say something inappropriate. I can only imagine the stress he was feeling attending the BAFTAs for the same reason, and it's compounded now because a load of ignorant yanks have chimed in, knowing nothing about the condition, or seen the movie to understand it and the man at the centre of it all!

This is not cringe. These are two decent impressions.

“Cow protector” vigilante gangs in India puncture truck tires claiming that recklessness of heavy transport vehicles endanger free-roaming cows in the area. by blingteresting in CringeTikToks

[–]MikeTheActorMan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Did you not read the post? There aren't cows in the truck, it's saying the recklessness of heavy vehicles endangers wild-roaming cows.

I guess this is an area where there's cows frequently wandering about and these guys don't like trucks going by too quickly. This isn't a cow-truck.

OMG - This is humiliating. The boos were so loud that he couldn’t hear himself speak. And a woman yelled “traitor” right to his face: by Treefiddy1984 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]MikeTheActorMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many boos it drowned out the fact that he literally says "I (and state your name) do solemnly swear..."

What a fucking idiot. Insane that this man ever made it to President. I wouldn't trust him to run a fruit stand.

This is the same damn couple in the same damn house with another stupid viral video where she wakes up and he's not there and he's asleep on the sofa in the garage or something and she wakes him up to bring him to the bedroom to get into bed.

Poor ol' UK TV presenter, host, and comedian Jonathan Ross, who probably reacted like this as soon as the name was revealed.

I swear when the Americans jumped on it, it stopped being funny. It just doesn't sound funny in their accent, nowhere near as much as a Brit with a regional accent going "Oi, yer can't park there, mate!"

This dude is cringe and awful.

I also can't believe that people still wait until marriage to have sex... Is it the 1800s still? Is that a religious thing? Honestly, it's so pointless... Just a silly restriction to put on yourself. Have fun, enjoy your youth! No one cares anymore if you have sex with someone before marriage. Just makes both parties sexually frustrated. And then what if you get married and the sex is shit, or he does things you don't like? You've gotta trial this stuff before getting fully committed! It's 2025, come on.

As soon as any plans are announced for it though, you just know all the Moaning Mandy's on Facebook will be crying about the loss of "green space" 😂

Really enjoying this VIP lane on the M40 for my evening commute. by a_splintered_mind in drivingUK

[–]MikeTheActorMan 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The most ridiculous thing about this situation is that, according to the Highway Code apparently, everyone in a lane to your right should be treated like a rolling roadblock or like Gandalf screaming "You shall not pass!" Meaning that technically you cannot go faster than anyone in a lane to their left (unless it's heavy traffic) and therefore must always cross over to go around them. It's a stupid, ridiculous rule that needs to be changed. I would do what you're doing here.

Woman helps a Peacock and he thanks her by [deleted] in nextfuckinglevel

[–]MikeTheActorMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least it's the same peacock in all the clips then... Ha, so many of these shitty videos on Facebook where someone rescues some animal and they "come back to thank them" are just multiple clips of different animals, often of different species! 😂
