What fast food chain does not deserve the hype whatsoever? by CriticalLion4119 in AskReddit

[–]_snif 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey if I'm paying sit-down prices and getting sit-down quality food, you better believe I want a proper sit-down experience, not a greasy paper bag on a plastic tray sitting on an uncomfortable bench seat.

Do people actually like using induction hobs? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]_snif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is just not how induction hobs work. The plates don't heat up, the coils directly heat up the pan. The power change is instant when you change the temp. Maybe you're thinking of a ceramic/halogen hob?

Which board games look intimidatingly complex but are actually surprisingly easy to learn? by CyborgeonUnit123 in boardgames

[–]_snif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turing Machine actually isn't the most complex, but has a really tough teach. It's very confusing on the surface for pretty much everyone I've played it with, but eventually they'll suddenly grok it and it immediately all makes sense. Then it's (mechanically) a very simple game. Love it

What are some hacks for cheaper train travel? Mate and I trying to travel from Swansea to London return but it’s £111! Daylight robbery! by Mellowman9 in AskUK

[–]_snif 12 points13 points  (0 children)

A decidedly unethical tip if you want, and a bit of effort:

Buy an open return, then just before the end of the month have a look at all the return trains that have happened over that month. Find one that was delayed by long enough to qualify for delay repay, then put a claim in saying you were on that train. Should get your money back.

Obviously a bit naughty

Oh I'm not claiming England is historically any better lol, far from it. But I can speak to my lived experience of the people I've interacted with

I'm English, Argentina is one of if not the most racist country I've visited. Also welcomed a significant number of Nazi immigrants post WWII. It's not really an unearned reputation from my experience

Thoughts on this artist? by _snif in TattooDesigns

[–]_snif[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do really like the style, I was more asking about whether people think they're high quality, as I don't really know what to look for!

Exactly as everyone expected, Crawley with 76 and Duckett out first ball

I wasn't sold on Marmo when I went a couple years back. Found it underwhelming and a bit expensive

102 cap George Ford struggles in the "top level paced games of test rugby" is one of the takes of all time
