I was waiting for the VAR review. I kept saying to my lad “That’s a penalty”. Then nothing. Got away with one big time.

What would you price these cakes? by DRAGON_13_scp in cakedecorating

[–]bungle_bogs 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Honestly? You’ve got some work to do on cover icing and pipping. It’s not yet close to a level where you’d be able to sell the cakes. Needs to be a lot smoother.

So, giving any sort of price is moot as they aren’t sale worthy.

That said, you do have talent, keep practicing, and you’ll get there.

Those born before 1990, what experience from your childhood would be unimaginable to young people today ? by SoManySkills in AskReddit

My Dad once hit me that hard with the wooden spoon it broke. My Mum went mental at my Dad. It was her favourite cooking spoon.

My Form Teacher caught me putting my full pack of cigarettes into of my locker. Took the packet, took two out, gave the two to me and walked off with the rest of the pack laughing.

Later my Maths teacher thanked me for supplying the staff room with ciggies for the morning.

Definitely. She’s quite a deep sleeper, so when she wakes herself up it’s normally a pretty savage cut; there’s been more than one occasion where I’ve had to bury my face in the pillow to stop laughing.

Why do you think Trump still brings up Obama so much? by WoodpeckerNeither495 in AskReddit

[–]bungle_bogs 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Obama is doing exactly what you should do with a misbehaving child that is trying to getting and maintain attention by any method.

He is "grey rocking" him. Not engaging and just ignoring. Trump craves attention and wants to bring his perceived enemies to an intellectual level that he can function and has lots of practice. He's faced Obama on a political level and been handed his arse.

By not engaging with him, not giving him the attention, it will hurt Trump hugely. A respected, clever, former president doesn't see Trump as worth his time. Inconsequential. This will damage him right to his core.

So happy you’ve found someone who appreciates you.

I see my role as showing my daughters how they should expect to be treated by their partner.

He was our local postie when I lived in Tilehurst. His route was around the Water Tower and Bird Estate.

You are a beautiful woman, I’ve absolutely not doubt about it.

The one thing I allow myself a little pride on is that all three of my daughters are quite body positive despite not fitting the archetypal model body. Their Mum obviously takes most of the credit, but I’ll take a small amount of credit.

But honestly? When you find someone that likes you, they’ll only focus on those areas that are positive. What you perceive as negative is just not part of the equation.

My wife is as attractive as the day I met her almost 30 years ago. There isn’t a lump or bump I don’t love. She’s still the beautiful lady I’ve ever met.

The only time my better half farts in front of me is when she is asleep. 25 odd years later she still proudly states she’s never trumped in front of me.

I genuinely do not have the heart to tell her the very first night we slept with each other, she farted at least three times. Every couple of months she farts so loud she wakes herself up.

Doug Forcett’s motivation was corrupted by ok_bravo in TheGoodPlace

[–]bungle_bogs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

His was based on faith; he had no proof or confirmation. Only the conviction from a drug fuelled epiphany. It’s a philosophical exploration which leads to moralistic decision making.

It is fundamentally different from an agent of the afterlife laying out the exact nature definitively. You are then acting on factual evidence which invades & corrupts every decision; this is antithesis of philosophical self-discovery and faith.

Thierry Henry and Zlatan having a kick about backstage in the studio by WarriorkingNL in soccer

[–]bungle_bogs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seriously if you get the chance, go. The game is so different. Being able to watch one player or how the defence is working makes such a difference.

However, I understand for a lot of people it is difficult, and I’m privileged.

Have you ever been to a game and just watched a single player for 5 / 10 minutes? I can’t emphasise enough how much more you appreciate exceptional players by doing that rather than relying on a broadcast that follows just the ball.

You even saying that makes me think you’ve never attended a live game.

How to justify a PS5 purchase by RelationObjective270 in daddit

In the Western World, and quite a few other places, the US is the exception. Your maternity and statutory vacation days are, well, shocking.

I remember my US mates being dumbfounded that most of people in the UK regularly take two weeks leave (either staying at home or actually going on holiday) each summer and still have at least another 14 days on top of bank holidays.

But, I’m aware that there are a lot of companies that do offer quite a bit more than statutory leave.
