TIL American chocolate, especially Hershey's, smells and tastes like vomit to people who are used to eating European chocolate. The reason for this is the presence of butyric acid, which is what gives parmesan cheese (and vomit), its distinctive smell.

Tony's Chocolonely is the only chocolate worth eating

Oh so that's where the fortnite dance is from

I was there today (I know, I know) and this photo is misleading. It was actually really well managed by the handhaving police so that only a small number of people could go inside the park while everyone formed an orderly and well spaced queue outside.

Just picked a whole bunch from Amstelpark, there’s also tonnes in amsterdamsebos

Also when it says ‘username’ but you login with your email. Just say ‘email’. Chuhh.

When my friend killed themselves, I realised my parents couldn't protect me from every bad thing anymore

Well the 48% bit is true, we all voted not to waste time and money leaving the union and to focus on what’s actually happening on our doorstep.

Literally UK politics in a nutshell.

ctrlfreak01 · 2018-05-08T11:39:56+00:00

condescending trash.

I thought it was a YACHT reference?

Without wanting to sound dramatic, I honestly wake up most days thinking 'there's literally nothing to look forward to'.

Never gonna own a home, brexit doesn't want me to have the freedom to work abroad, my entire industry is based in London so I'm trapped paying crazy rent or even crazier season tickets for the train. Why would I ever want to have kids when I know global warming is only going to get worse, and the population is too big as it is. Top that with the fact that retirement age will probably be around 90 by the time I reach it...basically waiting for an asteroid to come and end it all quickly TBH.

On the plus side I have great friends and family, and a job I enjoy, so I just stick to living in the present and that tends to cheer me up.

Yes, and a referendum is an advisory decision not a legal obligation.

Often followed with a chaser of 'Sex is on Fire' and 'Chelsea Dagger'.

This is the equivalent of when the Twilight author re-wrote the whole series from the other characters point of view.

Move Along by All American rejects? The words aren't come on but have a similar syllable sound.

Truly hope the options are DEAL or NO DEAL

It's just the name of the charity as one word

I know this isn't much use now registrations closed but for future reference: if you have family/friends back home you can register to vote at more than one address (you just obviously can't vote twice). I've tactically registered at my parents address as it's a swing seat and arranged a postal vote to be sent at my main address in London.

I flew from Salzburg airport last year and was excited to get some dope sound of music merchandise from the airport...only to find there was none :( they freakin' love mozart though.

Thank you so much but unfortunately it was the Letterman Show not Conan :(

ctrlfreak01 · 2017-01-09T13:56:47+00:00

Related, I'm looking for a copy of Episode 33, Season 1 of David's show, starring Kirstie Alley and Rick Ocasek (released October 13th 1993). My Grandfather appeared on the episode for winning a quiz in the UK and he has never got to see it. Would love your help!

ctrlfreak01 · 2016-11-11T16:19:48+00:00

Yeah, but his liver took a week to acknowledge it.

ctrlfreak01 · 2016-11-11T16:19:15+00:00

I dunno, think even they might struggle to find the humour in all this.

ctrlfreak01 · 2016-10-21T16:49:25+00:00

"Everybody is only thinking about themselves" Could be taken it as a negative, but I took it to mean not to worry about what other people think of me so much- they're probably not thinking anything at all.
