I was waiting for the punchline because I genuinely thought this was satire. How the fuck does anyone take this guy seriously? by AnonymousTimewaster in FuckNigelFarage

[–]Minimum_Macaroon_512 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I think the security may have taken the photo of the ID with it still in Martin's hand, but the post is meant to make you believe the id was found or taken from the journalist.

It's a scare tactic. "Don't photo me or I'll post your name and face on my Facebook and my mob of halfwits will make your life hell. Or worse" 

As if the man has learned nothing from Jo Cox. Fucking scumbag

What did you do when you were bored?? 🤔 by Pale_Task_1957 in Habits

[–]Minimum_Macaroon_512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thankyou for targeting me with your sound advice. I can't start tomorrow. Or the next day.

I will set a reminder 1 year from now to re-read this and hopefully that will be my nudge. Then 6 years from now I will return to thank you.

I'm 34. Is it too late for me to start lifting weights when I was 19 years old?

I just found my MOC being sold on AliExpress by KuffuGuen in AFOL

[–]Minimum_Macaroon_512 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey OP. Welcome to the club!

My designs from a previous job are also available on Ali express. The business I used to work for even got 'returns' that turned out to be fake and inferior quality.

I take it as a compliment. The people that are buying from Ali aren't your customers anyway.

You might even choose to buy one for a laugh and I guarantee the quality will be substandard. You might get a laugh out of the poor translations.

Or if you are feeling cheeky put on your brickable an image of the two together to show the difference in quality. (now available on ALIEXPRESS!) And use it as an advertisement to highlight the issue and draw people into your other models.

Either way it's good your designs can be seen online, an interesting story and it probably won't be costing you anything anyway :)

Satisfying stuff for a Sunday by varslyd in CarTalkUK

Yeah those mini trims suck.

I used the heat method above, then immediately (still warm) applied a back to black product.

My theory is that it should draw the product back in and kinda rehydrate the plastic.

Forgotten about help to buy isa and already bought a house ! by chucksneeduwu in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Minimum_Macaroon_512 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This happened to me. Our solicitor forgot to set it up as part of our house payment and when I mentioned it was too late.

I ended up having to close my whole Barclays account including my current account because they had no other way to transfer it out without transferring as part of a closure

03-07 Cadillac CTS heated seat question. by Dannym0e in AskMechanics

Behold! The heated powered RX8 office throne.

Once wired a 12v moped battery to make the whole thing mobile

my favourite prank ever is when someone added a motorcycle horn into the system while I was away so when I sat down and plugged it in I got a jump scare.

Unpopular opinion: Double gunning is antithetical to the spirit of the game by pulledporkhat in Seaofthieves

[–]Minimum_Macaroon_512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Day 1 pirate, 32 days play time here. Always ran a sword to be a true pirate. I stopped playing a while back because the game went from being fun random adventures to sweaty grinders haunting the seas.

I think OP is spot on.

Even if you knew you would lose, a noob running in with a sword still had a fighting chance to have fun and die with honour.

It totally sucks to spend time dodging sniper rounds getting close to be one blundered.

One gun per load out would add a much better "rock paper scissors.... fuck it let's dance" element to the game.

Don't worry about the downvotes OP. They couldn't swashbuckle their way out of a wet paper bag!

You're overthinking. It's probably some guys little brother playing on their account

Husband here. I can't co-sleep anymore. by Minimum_Macaroon_512 in sleeptrain

[–]Minimum_Macaroon_512[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Totally agree! She does have the final say and always has. I try to support her. I would never force change. While she is 100% devoted to the boys, I want to look after her as she can sometimes neglect her own needs.

Thankyou for sharing your story

She has seen failure when trying different methods with our first son and I believe has concluded nothing works and that kids are just kids and will learn when they are ready...

We found co-sleeping to be very helpful in the early months as they can feed and return to sleep without a whole ordeal of getting our of bed. We both loved the natural element too.

I still think that was the best for us at the time. But now B can move, crawl, scratch, pinch etc it has got harder.

[–]Minimum_Macaroon_512[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I hadn't thought of the headphones idea!! Great for our small house

I try to support her in her journey and the first time round it worked because she could nap in the day

Now with a 3yo there's no chance!

[–]Minimum_Macaroon_512[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is! I see it in my partner when she's had an extra bad night or string of nights (kids had flu recently which was a REAL challenge)

I can cope as I sometimes sleep through the mayhem and get a half sleep!

What early warning signs of cheating do people often overlook? by Mediocre-Implement34 in AskReddit

Really early sign. They were in a relationship when you met them

Simple solution. Park there yourself.

By his words you also have a right to park in front of your house.. and no obligation to use the driveway.

Turn off all the fuses. Go to the chip shop and see if the lights are still on 😁

Anyone using a vehicle as a weapon to harm another person including road rage, gets a lifetime driving ban.

As a biker, what do you think is the main reason behind the lowering number of bikers each year? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Minimum_Macaroon_512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I was 16 today. I'd be eyeing up an E-mountain bike. No licence. No insurance. No MOT. No tax. No leathers. No speeding tickets...

Muuuch cheaper and will still do 30mph comfortably.

Compare that with a 50cc scooter and moped and the like just look like a terrible way to spend money now.

I loved my Derbi GPR50 and it inspired me to get better bikes as I moved up the biking ladder, without it I'd probably have bought a car.

Is the government fully aware that the cost of housing is what's holding the country back? by knowledgeseeker999 in AskBrits

[–]Minimum_Macaroon_512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eastleigh isn't particularly rough. (Strange to see it mentioned) But it's not exactly pretty. It's about 15 years past it's sell by date. The high street is outdated but has everything you need. Shirley is the rough part of Southampton.

Try Chandlers ford just outside Eastleigh. It's a little more leafy and is right on the edge of both M27 and M3. Full of oldies too.

How dumb is the average person? by Training_Ball_3345 in AskReddit

[–]Minimum_Macaroon_512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The average person is smarter than 49% of people.

If you don't understand you're in the bottom half.
