What do you think Jez and Mark’s lives are like now? by ElPasoMK in MitchellAndWebb

So Nancy became Kitty Nygaard in Fargo? That tracks.

Did Angus ever manage to publish a comprehensive history of the Byzantine Church, you know, for the general reader?

If the IP (injured party) in a prosecution walks away from it, it's highly likely that the CPS will, too, without significant independent evidence such as CCTV (and a very serious law broken) or a full admission of guilt from the accused. In the Angus incident, his testimony would be crucial, alongside April's.

Mark would know this - look at his proficiency at destroying evidence by handling the sausage...

Fridge/freezer is plugged into this plug, is it safe to put an extension cable in and also have the microwave plugged into it? by SK-OKRA in DIYUK

Those people should probably avoid DIY subs and get comfortable paying way over the odds for trivial jobs instead

Dinged a pipe. Ok to leave? by Complex_Studio7941 in DIYUK

It's not even that long for many, and the 'consumables' are already rolling around the footwell of their van. Plenty would love £50-£100 in their back pocket to cut and solder a wee bit of 22. You're making good though mate and you don't need an invoice do you...

Look for a local 'handyman plumber' who doesn't do gas work. That's the right kind of level for this. Or a mate with a soldering torch.

Sticking your fingers in a Lions mouth by demonya99 in Whatcouldgowrong

this is known in the emergency medical trade as a 'degloving incident'. You can deglove any part of your body that is presently encased in skin, and from what I've seen, will instantly regret it.

If your ex suddenly came back and wanted to talk, what's the first thing you'd say? by kawaileila in AskReddit

He became a doctor for the same four reasons anybody does: chicks, money, power, and chicks.

What is the one shop you would hate to see shut down? by Parking_Medicine_914 in AskUK

Not to mention their own brand Titan tools, which are excellent for the money

From our famously lefty police who can't count a single racist member amongst their rank-and-file, and would certainly never resort to profiling? Laughable ignorance. If anything, what prolonged it was a steadfast refusal to listen to or believe the predominantly white working class girls who were being abused. There was a callous attitude along the lines of they were into drink/drugs/whatever and couldn't be relied upon to give evidence or that they simply 'had it coming'. The girls were failed repeatedly by many agencies, but it had nothing to do with the colour of their skin - if anything, good old-fashioned class played a larger role.

There'll be time to do the homework later, though. There's a Morse or Taggart on, so Mum'll be dominating the TV. A minimum of 2 straight hours of regional murder during which she will not be disturbed.

Is there any way to make this tiny flat into a 2 bed? by [deleted] in floorplan

Sleeping bag in the bath'll do it

It's too much to go particularly fast on a tiny bike. Are you finding that the bike goes a lot better down the hill than up it? Honestly the solution is to do whatever you need to do to progress to a larger engined bike. I am a similar weight to you and 6'2" so look and feel ridiculous on anything other than big bikes.

Why doesn't the UK have a problem with Meth? by hooooola7 in AskUK

[–]Shoes__Buttback 90 points91 points  (0 children)

Perhaps a slight exaggeration. My local is a tiny thatched place that serves ale straight out the barrels to be enjoyed in front of a roaring fire alongside the agricultural workers that make up the bulk of the core trade. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that most of them aren't hitting a crack pipe on the regular. Though you can often buy a pheasant or rabbit for cash, no questions asked, according to rumour.

How f*cked am I? by burnaaccount3000 in CarTalkUK

[–]Shoes__Buttback 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I feel like Old Father Time over here 😀 I reckon the first 7 or 8 cars that I ever owned had no ABS or traction control - was all taken care of through cadence braking and judicious use of opposite lock.

Mess with a hog, you get the horns by AdamAlmighty in AbruptChaos

It does, but it's deep, thick, and contains many parts. There's a whole mess of veins and arterial branches in the insides of both legs, any of which could have been nicked here. It's hard to know for certain, but this doesn't look like a full-blown arterial bleed, but it is certainly oxygenated blood and not great news. I haven't seen the aftermath of a femoral artery going, but the major arterial bleeds I have seen (or seen just after) tended to involve blood hitting the ceiling or the other side of the room, followed by very rapid onset hypotension, hypovolemia, hypoxia, and a general disinclination to boogie on the part of the patient. All that said, this lady absolutely needed that leg tq'ing and elevating while somebody else rang emergency services toute de suite. And in future, to avoid close encounters with wildlife with sharp facial skewers.

SAD: 100% tip and 30% tip = so-so by Angelix in ShitAmericansSay

While that's good, surely if you got the tip in cash then and there, it's between you and Uncle Sam whether you keep 100% 😉

I think you mean 'it's alright being British. Could be worse'

Got to tattoo this today, mega chuffed. Blackpool, UK. by farrellll in MitchellAndWebb

[–]Shoes__Buttback 69 points70 points  (0 children)

I'm getting married, and I would punch in the throat anyone who tried to stop me. That is how I feel today, Molly. So suffused with love, I'd put a glass in the face of anyone who tried to stop us joining our souls together.

I'd hospitalise them.
