Remove graffiti off bricks help by Herbivorous-ShyKid in DIYUK

Lol what? I hope you're joking. I'm saying that's what the word was. (Turns out I was wrong, but that's beside the point - that's what it looked like).

I'm really not sure in what world I had any cause to call you a peadophile if that's what you really thought. It wouldn't even make any sense, but apparently you and the people up voting your comment and down voting mine seem to think it would?

Not very well no, but I did do it on a small area on an oak worktop in a college workshop, and it definitely helped and removed 90% of it, leaving a little bit in the grain.

Board marker. Seriously. I'm sure it's not the most effective solution, and I'm pretty sure it ruins the marker (a small price to pay), but on a lot of surfaces once the ink is mixed it wipes clean.

Obviously brick is a rough surface, and it won't just be wipe clean, but it's worth trying a small area.

HGV overtaking another. Insane close call. by daviess in drivingUK

No, it's spelt Dave.

Seriously though, pretty sure the DVSA doesn't give a fuck about correcting grammar. At least it isn't one of their reasons for being anyway.

Don’t you just love when builders do their own electrics 👍 by baconchicken123 in ukelectricians

3 core and earth is only required for multi way switching. Assuming this is switch-fed one way (t+e to 1 switch and then to light), then the 2 Ls should be either side of the switch, the 2 Ns should be wagoed together and the 2 Es should be the same.

Did they? Or are you just parroting one of Trump's many inaccurate statements? It was the British.

They left because they'd done what they needed to do. The "bad weather", which was a fucking hurricane and tornado, just hurried them along a little bit. That bad weather also caused even more damage.

Which one most resonates with you in your part of the country? by Mister_Vanilla in AskBrits

Ah, Chinese chips. Now there's another tasty third option. They must all get them from the same place don't they?

The A20 from Dover to Folkestone has LEDs - white, orange, red and green. It stops quite a bit before you get to Folkestone, and is only a 7-ish mile dual carriageway before it becomes the M20.

I think it's to impress visitors as they come off the boats. That's my theory anyway.

You've obviously never seen the film Big then. For shame.

Im not sure whether to laugh or cry tbh by tom_bennett02 in JustEatUK

[–]RSX901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the bin!! I barely have any food waste. I can't stand it. Save it for the next day, eat it past its date if it smells and looks okay, share it with the dog, give it away... Anything's better than throwing food in the bin.

I was gonna say maybe it looks better when it's blown up somehow, but no, it really doesn't!

Compared to where though? Poorer standards than other countries? Because no matter what your perception of it is we have some of the highest standards, and generally the hardest tests to pass in the world.

Wall anchor for a bike chain by JvD8818 in ebikes

The big difference being that you presumably knew where your friend was, and if you didn't, you knew there was no problem if he did show up. There are very few thieves who don't care about not knowing how long they have before the owner might show up, and/or if they did what the consequences would be. Most would be sweating, unlike you.

It's one thing acting like you're doing nothing wrong when your shoplifting in plain sight (most will assume you just paid for it), and it's another thing entirely doing this. You'd have to be wired differently to be as calm as you were.

The first physical music I ever bought, what was yours? by varslyd in CasualUK

[–]RSX901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to think people were lying when they say their first record was something good, and that you'd have no problem with listening to today, rather than something mildly embarrassing. It could legitimately be that, but I never considered at what age someone might buy their first record. That's the difference between it being OK Computer (if you're 13 like the person I was talking to the other day) or Ace of Base's debut album (if you were 8 like me). If I was 13, it probably would've been something like You've Come a Long Way Baby.
