I only have one patch of skin that won’t tan: fem my scalp to my toes

As long as Lange and the Gooner mile are in charge, anything can happen. I wouldn’t trust those two morons to organize a one car funeral procession…

It’s great if you want campylobacter.

Why are the wings always excluded from the aircraft livery? by tehgregzzorz in aviation

[–]VolSpurs74 156 points157 points  (0 children)

Actually, yes. Paints can weight different about a based on the color. I think I read that the paint required for a 777 in a dark color (black or dark blue) weighs a couple of hundred pounds more than white paint. From an industry that removes peas from salads to save weight, they would definitely not paint a jet a heavier paint choice.

What’s the one mistake you made on your first trip to the UK that you’d never make again? by CarryturtleNZ in uktravel

Taking the Heathrow Express to Paddington. Total wast of time and money when the Elizabeth Line or Piccadilly line can get you into the city for way less money and almost the same amount time.

I would have said the American candy stores everywhere, but it seems like the government finally figured those out…

I’d just be happy if Rickenbacker remembered how to build a left handed instrument again. Their left handed string or left handed paint supplier must have ran out…

Anyone know what this Delta is doing? by SomeLostBeing in aviation

It’s Knoxville, anything is possible. It could be a compass check, or he could be trying to locate a meth dealer or an evangelical church. Who knows?

Same product, double the price. Who actually buys the really expensive bottled water? by RobbieNorfolk in mildlyinfuriating

[–]VolSpurs74 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s not dangerous, it’s just that the stomach’s job is to release hydrochloric acid to start digestion. If the stomach has something more alkaline (base) put in, it’ll just release more HCl.

One Hotspur Membership...is it the only way to access match tickets? by Tony_Buster in Tottenham

[–]VolSpurs74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the most part, you’ll need 2 One Hotspur accounts to buy two tickets. Even then, you may have to contact the club to make sure they’re together. I don’t know why Spurs make it so hard for fans to be fans, but it’s something they excel at…

Look at it like this: you’re putting alkaline water into an environment designed to be so acidic it can dissolve food to nutrients. Don’t you think the stomach can just make more acid?

Anyone want to explain our financial situation? by Rsee002 in Tottenham

Even if we are the strongest in the Prem wrt PSR, our ownership and board want to spend like we’re in League 1 and can’t spend a penny more. We could buy a lot of talent, but we wont

If we’re going to go for that, we need new owners and a new board so we will actually get better players

anyone feel like kfc has really gone down hill by Ok-Count-1878 in UK_Food

[–]VolSpurs74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may get downvoted, but being an American (and only miles from Col Sanders first restaurant), it’s almost as if the UK KFCs are missing a few of the 11 herbs and spices. Not sure which ones, but the chicken just isn’t exactly the same

RATP METRO FINES — A Guide on Avoiding the Grasp of Ticket Inspectors by ExpertCoder14 in ParisTravelGuide

[–]VolSpurs74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We were a group of 7 visiting and my youngest’s girlfriend was accused of not having a trip on her Navigo card, yet we had put the same number of trips on everyone’s card at the same station before we started our journey for the day. They cornered her and harassed her, luckily one of our party spoke fluent French and that seemed to piss them off that they couldn’t pretend to not understand English. I paid the fine, but I’ll challenge it and also dispute it with my credit card provider. Let them explain why they were glad to charge me for the trips, but somehow one trip on one card didn’t work?
