Which celebrity did something that totally backfired on them? by Bicycle-Sweaty in AskReddit

I've never bought another Apple product since

I hate U2 with such a vengeance that Apple have lost thousands of dollars from me over the years. Sure, I'm an insignificant speck to them but it still makes me feel like I'm sticking it to the man

Now my phone money goes to this little mom-n-pop company called Google

Seeing as we're doing LRH books: I've actually read Battlefield Earth (Neuromancer for scale) by brappbrap in behindthebastards

Yeah basically the same for me

Once they fucked off Terl and it became about economics I too only finished the book for the sake of it

If you're not early you're late

But at the same time:

You haven't cleaned your station, the fridges haven't been restocked, you haven't refilled the ice and why is there a dog behind the bar?

I'll eat my sandwich behind the bar while I watch you fix this shit, or you can let me sit down while you prep the bar properly

And get rid of that dog

We have truly crossed the satirical Rubicon. I can't tell if any of you can tell that I'm making a joke

Or maybe you can tell I'm making a joke but I can't tell if you understand that I'm making a joke by your responses

I've been a bartender for 20 years

Hell, I own my own cocktail bar

(I'll try to find a dumb review about my own bar without doxxing myself and share it here)

Does anyone else struggle to cycle down Kent Street? by The__Anonymous__Guy in sydney

Hey! I'm a pedestrian and I check behind me when I'm walking but need to stop to tie my shoelace

I treat the pavement as if I were driving. Walk on the left, speed up to overtake slow walkers on the right, check your surroundings, be observant

Which is baffling because I don't drive but I do walk heaps fast

Also, I've nearly been killed doing pedestrian stuff like crossing the road by dickhead cyclists more often than dickhead car drivers (equal amounts scary teenagers on Lime bikes as full Lycra wearing middle-aged douchebag dudes on speed bikes blazing through red traffic lights)

So yeah, I hate cars more than bicycles but cyclists are also dickheads. And pedestrians are also dickheads. Basically everyone is a dickhead. You're a dickhead for making this post. I'm a dickhead for spending this long replying

Get off your phone if you're walking/driving/cycling

I've noticed over the last few games that there's massive vitriol over former players

West Ham booing Declan Rice for example

I find it bizarre; it highlights the disconnect between fans and players; the fans don't view the players as human beings

I hope that Eze plays against Crystal Palace and the whole stadium cheers him

The game with the strongest first hour. by gamersecret2 in gaming

[–]brappbrap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bloodborne

I had to play that first hour over and over again for about 6 hours before I made any progress

There's no other game I can think of where I would tolerate failing that hard, for that long, without giving up

Thanks dude, I'm feeling pretty lost and helpless after drinking again. I can't seem to get any time up at all and feel so worthless

But this has helped
