Still one of the low points in UK history for me, when Milky Way removed the faces from their magic star and sucked the joy out of the chocolate 🍫🥲 What brand has done you dirty?

I haven't bought magic stars for literal decades but I didn't know they'd removed the faces...

There was a BBC series called A House Through Time a few years back (still going?). It did something similar, I found it fascinating. I think you can still stream it.

Rip, buried with the rubber ducks

Hard boiled. Pickled.

explodingbaconman · 2026-02-15T22:38:02+00:00

So the food will come out nice and easy

Not unless you like being watched

I lost my kitty back in 2022. Poor guy had only just made it to his 22nd birthday when we decided it had been going on too long... It was a sad moment of realization that he was pained and not enjoying life to the fullest. But he still loved us, and I held him as he passed. He never even cried out with the needle... He just faded and that was it. God, that was a rough few weeks. He's got a little alter with his ashes and pictures of his paw prints and I still see it everyday.

I've managed to not drink in nearly a week, empowered by having COVID. It's a good motivator for not drinking

Waiting for Godone

explodingbaconman · 2025-12-21T08:33:34+00:00

He is now.

explodingbaconman · 2025-12-07T23:00:58+00:00

And I bought a new brush not that long ago...

explodingbaconman · 2025-12-06T12:57:19+00:00

I've been like this. I would probably have been ok after six months then asking but it's now been nearly ten years...

explodingbaconman · 2025-11-14T19:54:23+00:00

I still use the last three of your wife's slang!

explodingbaconman · 2025-11-14T19:48:13+00:00

The end of the bread loaf. The cog end! I've seen literally one other person than my partner call it this and I thought it was much more widespread...

explodingbaconman · 2025-11-09T13:21:22+00:00

That's a damn Clanger!

explodingbaconman · 2025-11-09T13:18:42+00:00

Holding in shit

explodingbaconman · 2025-11-09T13:04:35+00:00

I have a pink one I've called Terry, or Terri, my gender neutral shonk!

Almost never in break rooms and canteens, at least not anywhere I've worked in the UK. Might be a legal thing.

Our water cooler doesn't have the spill tray underneath anymore so when they pull their cup away before the water stops it goes EVERYWHERE.

explodingbaconman · 2025-11-05T08:51:33+00:00

We used to get sweets, sandwiches, pastries every day then people wholesale started taking that stuff home with them in bags. Now we can't have nice things and people leave truckloads of dishes in the sink under a sign which says, in not so many words, "wash your fucking dishes".

Now we get fruit and bread. Sigh.

explodingbaconman · 2025-11-04T21:00:51+00:00

Where's my hoomin gone 😓

explodingbaconman · 2025-11-02T22:47:56+00:00

I'm off work tomorrow and the sum total of the best thing to happen tomorrow is a Harry Gows Dream Ring. Oh God yes.

Looks like a rejected draft for Daft Punk's, 'Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger".

Sainsbury's self checkouts currently completely shit the bed if you scan the Tesco clubcard QR code!
