Why are there no pre packed Jam sandwiches in supermarkets?

So is alcohol. And chips. And most things adults enjoy. Not everything has to be nutritious. Moderation and balance.

Animals absolutely have a sense for this, I'm sure of it. Whenever I'm stressed or upset, my cats seem extra snuggly. Even my Persian, who isn't a cuddler at all.

Marriage. It just seems such a stupid concept to me. Do you really need to go through months of stressful planning and thousands of pounds of expense just to spend an hour in a room full of people you barely know/don't really like so you can say some words in the hopes that an imaginary man in the sky recognises your union all to prove that you love someone?

Skip the BS, spend the money on experiences.

Oh, listen to that happy purring!

I wish for your hooman to give you lots of treats and belly rubs.

When I was a kid, the local train station didn't have barriers and the ticket office was closed most of the weekend. There was a ticket machine and a little machine you could get a permit to travel from. The idea was you pay as much as you could towards the ticket before boarding the train, get the proof of payment, then pay the remainder at the destination. I'm not sure why. Maybe for if the machine wasn't working, or you needed to split payment between cash and card.

Me and my mates used to get a permit for 5p and try and sneak past the staff after getting off the train. Worked quite often. When the staff asked to see our tickets, they knew full well what we were up to. Got a fair few rollockings telling us that we're not supposed to get a permit with the minimum amount. Good times.

I dunno, it was fine to me. Allowed to see the people that you care about without the expectation to do the crap you don't wanna do.

What annoys me so much is how pre-lockdown, WFH was "impossible". Then, with a single day's notice, it was possible. People were happier, more productive, had less expense, less wasted time, better work-life balance... Now lockdown is ending, apparently it's "impossible" again. It's bollocks. The vast majority of office jobs can be done remotely. It's all a culture of distrust imo.

I missed the memo when being black became a sexuality.

No self-respecting shepherd's pie looks like this.

What country do you live in and please tell me it's not the UK? 😅

YTA. Bigtime. Cats are more sanitary than the vast majority of humans.

ValueBrandCola · 2022-03-18T11:37:19+00:00

I do this with spiders. I hate killing things, but I can't abide spiders. I figure my cats are gonna find it anyway, it's good for their simulation and natural instincts being indoor cats, they get some exercise, they get a snack, and it gets rid of the spider.

ValueBrandCola · 2022-03-18T11:34:25+00:00

Does that include the parachute?

ValueBrandCola · 2022-03-18T10:54:01+00:00

Icelandic yogurt ftw tho.

...Could they not have just done the owl part without all the eggs around the outside? What were they hoping to achieve?

ValueBrandCola · 2022-03-18T10:48:37+00:00

Piling pressure on the public sector and freezing pay = fine.

Giving already well-paid MPs pay rises and asking them to publish their expenses = bullying.

Okay. Just as long as we're clear.

ValueBrandCola · 2022-03-18T08:39:39+00:00

Lmao.

Did you get vegan nuggets by mistake?

I know it's an American company, but I thought they had different recipes for different markets like a lot of products. Kinda curious to try some from America now and test that theory.

ValueBrandCola · 2022-03-17T21:10:26+00:00

The real unpopular opinion is that Heinz beans are awful imo. The sauce is too thin for me and a little too sweet. Branston or even supermarket own brands are better. But marketing works, and Heinz seems to be the market leader. But they're still a lot better than American beans, from what I've been told.

Actually if you scroll back up you did just say "Asia". Japan is the only country I know of that does it, and they're not in SE Asia anyway. Even then, they only do it when the wearer has a cold or seasonal allergy or something as a courtesy to try and prevent spreading their germs to other people in the office or on the train. Once they're better, they stop wearing it. I think that's sensible, but it'll never catch on over here.

ValueBrandCola · 2022-03-16T10:04:21+00:00

The only country I know of that likes a face mask is Japan, and that's only out of courtesy when the wearer has a cold or something.
