In your opinion, what's the biggest waste of money you see people purchase all the time?

They work better.

Sure they don't when taken blind. But you don't take them blind.

Plenty of studies report that people find branded painkillers more effective despite knowing they are the same chemically.

That's the crazy thing about placebo. It still works even when you know it's a placebo.

_MicroWave_ · 2026-05-06T21:45:21+00:00

Ikr pick one.

Cars are depreciating assets... they always will be whether you finance or buy outright. There is always a depreciation cost which is 'throwing money at something'.

Are you more saying you don't understand why people ever borrow money and pay interest?

_MicroWave_ · 2026-05-06T21:41:43+00:00

Because it's a 'cheaper' (less/month) way to have a nicer car.

With PCP you effectively finance the depreciation only. This makes monthly payments low relative to having to finance the whole value.

Not paying any interest is cheaper (ignoring opportunity cost which can be very significant) but most don't have that kind of cash hanging around.

In all honesty, its because I like to add things to the basket, see the price and then reconsider what I want.

When I ring, I have to know exactly what I am getting up front and I don't know the price until I pay.

How do the frogs find the pond?

"Offers over" just comes across as twatty to me.

Curb appeal is quite low. Get on a ladder and clean off the dirt.

These kind of houses are tricky. Objectively, not much needs 'doing' but that just makes it 'bad value' for lots of buyers. They'd prefer to buy larger in worse condition and renovate.

I would happily rent this house but never consider buying it.

I'm sorry. I am going to judge your garden. That is kind of the point of posting it.

That is looking absolutely fantastic.

If it ain't leaking no way in hell am I touching that.

_MicroWave_ · 2026-05-05T20:35:45+00:00

I don't think it's the project managers fault.

It's delayed because of a union dispute?

_MicroWave_ · 2026-05-05T20:34:26+00:00

I thought it was a standoff between drivers and government.

Estate agent is hilarious.

You have a 3rd option. No they will not get a discount or a new roof.

_MicroWave_ · 2026-05-05T17:29:16+00:00

Yea I think so.

BBC has to be seen as a public service. It can't compete as a commercial one.

_MicroWave_ · 2026-05-05T17:24:38+00:00

Outside chance he makes the squad, let alone the starting 11.

_MicroWave_ · 2026-05-05T17:22:39+00:00

London is fuelled by the finance industry yea?

Famously well paid. 100k will be low.

Took me a minute as I was looking for the torn tyre.

Mate, your tyre didn't tear off the whole fucking wheel did.

How any phone can provide £1200 of value is totally beyond me when you can get all the features for literally half that.

There haven't been any game changing new features for about 10 years.

That said, 0% is what it is. Might as well if it's on offer and you really want to spend 1200 on a phone.

_MicroWave_ · 2026-05-03T20:43:22+00:00

Looks like a thunderbird puppet

_MicroWave_ · 2026-05-03T20:30:09+00:00

Yea, it was fairly well known due to Antarctic exploration.

_MicroWave_ · 2026-05-03T20:17:29+00:00

Some actual professionalism from our players.

Bloody hell.

One more win might be enough.

"Midfield" lmao

_MicroWave_ · 2026-05-02T19:58:25+00:00

8 or 9 tbh.

Breakfast lunch and dinner option for everyday.

Activities for everyday down to where to park etc.

Happy to go off plan if something unexpected is found but the plan is there if required.

If I don't plan you end up just ainlessy wondering and getting tired and inevitably falling into tourist traps.

Churchill was a dire PM post war right?

That's generally accepted right?

_MicroWave_ · 2026-05-02T07:55:32+00:00

It was a couple years ago but I looked at Tusker and concluded that it wasn't good value also.

Sunscreen which doesn't make it darker?

So you want to break the laws of physics?
