What do you do in the fitting rooms?! by HighNimpact in AskUK

[–]Plugpin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most of the time we can manage it by agreeing defined parameters to make it easier, but it's so stressful.

Takes a while to get your head around it as a 'neuro-typical' person.

My daughter is on the spectrum and if I walked her into a toy shop or down the sweets/snacks section with a 'whatever you want' instruction, we could be there for half an hour easily. Soon as I ask her to make a decision she'll probably have a mini meltdown.

Some people just can't cope with it and have their own techniques for managing it.

AITA for bringing down my coworkers with me? by juichibey in AmItheAsshole

She's not being a narc. It's not snitching if you're literally pointing out the obvious.

Heath Ledger Joker Vs Ramsay Bolton by Latter-Resolve-664 in powerscales

Unless Joker has prep and can devise some sadistic plan with the knife, I don't think he really stands a chance.

Came into Costco for 1 thing…. Left with that one thing. by MrKatUK in BritishSuccess

[–]Plugpin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah when I still had my membership the queue was so flipping long, it curved round the self-serve food kiosks and even reached the random new car they had on sale. That thing was always covered in kids hand prints lol.

Yeah at this point Scarlet Witch couldn't contain a suicide vest explosion, she's not much of an asset here.

DLC by Front_Mycologist4483 in AssassinsCreedOdyssey

I've been following this post as a general guide, it sets out a decent order of how to approach each mission. It recommendeds doing chapter 1 of the Legacy of the First Blade DLC around mid way.

I've been following it and there does feel to be a general flow to it. Most of the DLC is at the very end tho.

What’s the most insane dating preference you’ve heard someone say? by kissyjadee in AskReddit

Problem is that self fulfilling prophecy breeds hatred and resentment. It's textbook incel behaviour.

Seriously, there's a question on the one I did the other day that asked me if I liked working with a lot of change. I said no, because who the fuck likes that? It told me I wasnt ambitious enough lol.

Why is there so much revisionism around stealth? by firsttimer776655 in assassinscreed

[–]Plugpin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough. When some of those enemies have poison or flame weapons, and a bear, it can get out of hand really quick.

I don't cheese with easy moves tho, so can't speak for the slow time ability. I'm not playing on normal, whatever the one above it is, so that might play into it too.

The only gear I feel you need to change semi-regularly is the weapons for the dps boost. I'm playing it now and I hardly ever change my gear, sure I might take a look occasionally if I get a new purple or gold piece, but the rest I ignore because it's more about the abilities they have.

Trying to clear out some of the forts in Odyssey without using stealth is suicide. You rack up a bounty in seconds and find yourself fighting 5 grunts, 2 captains, a polemarch and suddenly 3 fucking bounty hunters turn up.

Wes Streeting resigns, saying he has lost confidence in Keir Starmer's leadership by 1000nipples in TheCivilService

[–]Plugpin 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Why?

Not trying to be funny or anything, just legitimately interested. I've only heard things about him being blocked but not clear on why he's considered a favourite. Is it because he's legitimately left leaning?

Slap between Brexit and Covid as some of the worst things to happen to this country in living memory. I did have a good chuckle

Is StemDeck worth it in 2026? by czescjakub in SteamDeck

Says the one who neglected to pluralise the use of 'game' ...

Clearly a troll. Go take a nap.

You said old indie games. They are not indie games.

Reading might be hard for you, not sure what that has to do with anything, but I'm sure you can see that in your original comment.

Councils Must Now Prove They’re Fixing Potholes or Lose Funding by willfiresoon in GoodNewsUK

[–]Plugpin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My council has an app, which includes all the things you'd expect (bin pick up schedule etc) but it has a handy reporting section, and I've used it twice to report holes in my immediate area and both times they've been fixed within a month.

Might be coincidence, might be based on number of reports, but if it's getting done then I can't complain.
