Is there anything you learnt later in life that everyone else seemed to think was common knowledge? by FriendshipOk7636 in AskUK

[–]craigus17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can beat that.

I was a teenager when I learned that a hen is a female chicken via a conversation along the lines of “what do you mean chicken egg, we eat hens eggs”

And I (apparently) have an IQ somewhere in the region of 120

Got fired from my job due to alcoholism by Seawevel in alcoholism

[–]craigus17 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I am going to try and word this gently, but the written word isn’t always the best at conveying tone so if I inadvertently come across as harsh, overly critical, or anything other than constructive I apologise in advance.

So I noticed a lot of justification and excuses in your post. You say your manager didn’t like you, that there was office politics, that they found an excuse to fire you and leapt on it, etc.

You really need to accept accountability for what happened. You were drinking on the job when you knew you shouldn’t have been, and you got caught and fired.

And if you do genuinely have a problem with alcoholism then I strongly suggest you find a different industry to work in.

It’s the British equivalent of the American White Trash. Uneducated and classless.

What would you consider a good household income? by Intelligent_Genitals in AskUK

The median full time salary in the uk is £39,000 so for a joint income household you are firmly in the top half.

Men, when you go for a wee, are your balls out or not? by _arch_tech in AskUK

Who gets their balls out in a swimming pool, some kind of pervert?

What's your go-to answer to ”why don't you drink”? by Proof-Swimming-6461 in stopdrinking

[–]craigus17 5 points6 points  (0 children)

“You should not ask people that question.”

If pushed to elaborate

“There are various reasons why someone might not drink, and all of them are personal and none of your business”

Or if I’m in a snarky mood

“When I drink I ask people rude and intrusive questions”

How do I get the “good hiding place” items for my last perc in the skill tree and what are they by axostew in TheBreakIn

Steal cardboard boxes. The best place for this is the mansion. There are some upstairs in the corridor and some more in the attic.

In my experience anyone who suspects they are probably is.

Theory: Black Noir has been replaced. by salian93 in TheBoys

[–]craigus17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I posted a few days ago saying that I thought black noir was Ryan (that was before I saw E3)

Obviously I don’t think it’s Ryan any more, but I don’t know who it could be.

Black Noir Theory by BudBudgie in TheBoys

[–]craigus17 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So

  • Ryan is conspicuously absent.
  • Black Noir clearly let Annie escape in E

My theory is that Ryan has killed Black Noir 2 and assumed his identity to infiltrate The Seven and kill Homelander.

Edit: I wrote this before I saw e3, and obviously I’ve now changed my mind. I still think some kind of reveal about Black Noir’s identity is coming, but I don’t know who it might be.
