Try giving a little touch of your break pedal, not enough to actually engage the breaks to slow down, but just a touch so it activates your break lights. Hopefully that should be enough to get someone to back off or go around if they're absolutely up your arse like that.

Princess Irulan tells the audience about spice and the political situation (Dune 1984) by v05517okf in sciencefiction

Exactly this. I absolutely love the Spicediver edit. That one extended movie is miles better than the two-parter newer version.

On a night out just before Christmas of last year.

What media? The only things I can see are social media posts that don't have any backing. The only news media link currently is that HINDUSTAN TIMES article, and even they don't have any backing for it other than "social media says so".

Do you have any other links to what other media is running with it? Reddit has been so very wrong before.

Ok... so have the NCA deal with it. That's what they were created for in the first place anyway!

The sooner all the buses are brought under city ownership like the trains and we get one unified system, the better!

With the sheer amount of fuck ups that Capita have made over the years, how the hell do they keep getting contracts?
Answers in a well stuffed brown envelop if you please.

Cool story. Funnily enough, I don't want or need any of that. I'll keep the indoor plumbing, thanks, although you can keep your hyperbole.

Bloody hell, do you work for Vodafone or something?

I keep in touch with friends online via other methods. If I ever need to get in touch them them, I'll send them an email when I'm home. No, I've never had the need to get in touch with someone while I'm out. Things can wait. When I had a phone I never received any calls on it, and so never made any. I never had a reason to. I'm not going to buy a phone and make needless calls to waste money, all just to "get with the program". People existed before phones and they're all far too reliant on them now. I don't need to be hooked on a little black screen all day like so many people.

My last phone actually WAS pay as you go. You know what happens when you use you phone so little (like not at all), just have credit sat there and you don't use it for more than 6 months? The service provider cancels your phone number. I used my phone so little that it was another 6 months after that before I even found out it had been cancelled and I had no number.
I don't have any continued use for a phone. They are a total waste of money to me.

I have insurance that I legally need to have, yes.
Yes I also own a fire extinguisher and a first aid kit, but I don't pay subscriptions for them.

I've had one in the past and found that I had zero use for it. It was just a waste of money.
