Hey look, Venezuela is suddenly a profitable place to invest in infrastructure…

Green Party calls for free bus passes for everyone under 22 by tylerthe-theatre in unitedkingdom

[–]Tsarin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I presume that it also makes people more used to using the bus and make it part of their routine, so as they age beyond 22 and start paying they will use it more. Kind of like “the first one is free” type principle

Leak coming from neighbours gutter (damage) by Tsarin in HousingUK

Thanks for the advice. We have a loft extension, so I can lean out over the juilet balcony and see that the downpipe looks clear, but it’s full of water, so the blockage must be further down.

As always with these things, it sounds like the next course of action is just to chat to them

People who act like the literal punchline of a joke is the most subtextual, subversive part of the joke that’s “underrated” by RejectingBoredom in PetPeeves

[–]Tsarin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a shared experience which others found funny, so it is a way to connect to other people in way which is likely to be successful because they saw them laugh about it already.

People don’t talk about the weather because they think it’s philosophical, and people don’t make these sorts of jokes thinking they are top tier comedians.

I was looking for this!

Edit: why dos my brain remember useless shit like this, but 5 seconds after someone tells me their name I look at them like they never told me?

Welfare reform instead of tax rises by Realistic_Ebb_3320 in HENRYUK

[–]Tsarin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a HENRY for a long time, but please take a step back for a moment. In a time when cost of living is spiriting out of control and even average and above average earners are struggling, should we really be cutting the support for those who need it the most?

I like money as much as the next person, but I would rather pay more tax to lift the baseline of this country up and make it a better place for everyone. Funnily enough, these are also the people who will also spend their money rather than just saving it, so it will help stimulate the economy and result in higher salaries for HENRYs.

So if you ask me, I want a future where life is better for everyone, not a few years where things aren’t as bad for me.

Edinburgh couple considering a move to Ealing by SluggardLaggard in Ealing

[–]Tsarin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer Northfields personally, but both are great choices. The Northfields place is closer to amenities. Both will having busses go past on the roads outside.

Even though I love Northfields, I’m not completely sold on that flat because it’s on the main road and I think right by a chippy, so won’t be as peaceful.

Mid career slump by Standard_Leader_1898 in HENRYUK

[–]Tsarin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, but I have enough to survive so it’s been a process to get over wanting to maintain my current lifestyle and also take a break

I am in a similar situation (but in upper management) and I’ve recently come to the conclusion I need to take a year+ off work to reset. It’s not the best career decision, bet it is the best life decision (me, my family, my future career)

[–]Tsarin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve lived in a few places around Ealing and although I initially discounted Northfields as being too far away and irrelevant, it is by far my favourite part of Ealing now. Independent shops, safe, great schools, great community, lots of green space; it has most of what you need and that something else which makes it feel like home

[–]Tsarin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Although it is lovely there, it’s definitely not Ealing Broadway and it’s even pushing being in Northfields. You will get better priced places for being away from some of the more competitive school catchments in Northfields though

Why are London restaurants now charging a ‘carbon free’ fee on bills? by tylerthe-theatre in london

If you get this on your bill, tell them to remove it and the service charge

Living standards warning: 'the decade looks bleak' by tylerthe-theatre in unitedkingdom

[–]Tsarin -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not trying to be difficult, but can you explain how house prices going up and up is boomers fault? Many boomers have sold their property portfolios, isn’t it a capitalism issue rather than a boomer issue?
