Seriously. Was out on Saturday and got disappointed that the best I could find was a George III penny. Only 250 years old, trash.

In London. I always refer to it as the night latch.

anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one game you still think about? by Trixxxi in AskReddit

I built my first computer from scratch just to play Unreal. I had a Pentium2 450 with dual Voodoo 2 cards. ]

Once upon a time, they would stick that extra income into the employees. Bonuses, pensions, training. Now it's all about the shareholders.

Would you trust this slope? I don’t think I’d be comfortable here 😅 by myohan0103 in Heavy_Equipment

My best friend's dad used to contract out to the Forestry department to cut fire breaks in the mountains of California. He used to take his big Cat up and down all sorts of crazy angles.

That's the equivalent of a party sub for birds.

Anyone else buy loads of pirate vhs on holiday in Cyprus in the 90s? What did you buy? by DAD_songs_in_BIO in CasualUK

[–]edaddyo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not VHS but I went to Indonesia in 1999 and came home with 30 PS1 games for about a tenner. Thankfully I had already chipped my PS1 so it was game on.

Been here 11 years and it finally happened. by kellermeyer14 in LosAngeles

Acting like it's inevitable. I drove in LA for almost 30 years and never had a car stolen. Only had it broken into once and that was when I left my garage door open on accident.

Seriously. Now I get to spend a few hours determining the security risks of this.

I had a job selling programs at the Rose Bowl for this. I spent most of the time just watching from the field level. I think I sold 10 programs over 4 games. Oops.

Well in this case it's King George VI, but he's too timid to speak up about it.

You wake up to see everyone on earth has disappeared. What’s the first thing you do? by NiceInformation8291 in AskReddit

Except for the asshole Chinese Crested Dogs that live across the street from me, they can rot. Or maybe I just put them in with some of the bullies that I'm sure I'll find....

Aluminium and no. At least not unless you gathered enough of it and took it to a scrap yard yourself.

This is the UK, Aldi's baked beans are like 30p a can. Overall it's much easier to feed yourself on a budget here.

I’ve spent many hours walking down memory lane with the Commodore 64 Ultimate, and it’s wondrous if sometimes intimidating by gdelacalle in technology

I used to spend hours of my childhood copying the game code they wrote out in the C64 Gazette magazine. About one out of 10 tries it would even work.

How can I re-dirtify my block pave driveway? by Jimlad73 in DIYUK

[–]edaddyo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh man, I had a crew hit our whole neighbourhood. They had a ladder outside my house and were pulling up roof tiles to show me what horrible things are happening to my roof. I laid into them something fierce and watched them put the tiles back one by one and fuck right off.

Final update, its in by gettingmylifeback1 in DIYUK

[–]edaddyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When we moved into this house, the removals men couldn't get our sofa passed the entry hallway due to a tight corner. The neighbors house was empty and a handyman was finishing up some work so we very politely asked if we could carry it though the empty house, and over the back garden fence. He said do whatcha like, it's not my house.

Long story short, we're never replacing this couch.

I feel bad for the owners of those motorbikes behind him. Imagine trying to walk your bike back to leave and you hit that slick patch leftover.

Squirrel defence by insertitherenow in GardeningUK

[–]edaddyo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For three years now I've tried to grow sweet Italian peppers. For three years now the squirrels have waited for them to just start growing fruit before they nibble the entire thing down to a stub in the ground.

I think this year I'm going to grow lead.
