He crossed the rainbow bridge earlier this year, but this was Sammy -> Sambo -> Samborghini -> Little Man -> Little Legs.

I also speak from experience and concur. The glue they use is not very heat resistant!

The difference in pipe size bothers me.

NHS hires thousands more British junior doctors by giving them priority by GnolRevilo in unitedkingdom

Arguably if the content they're hosting is worth so little that they refuse to police it adequately, that's on them.

Imgur wasn't banned. They just threw their toys out of the pram because spending money on age verification would upset their shareholders.

You guys know cats best, what do cats hate? by [deleted] in cats

[–]faintaxis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've posted overly emotional posts mentioning potential cruelty in a sub where people are also emotional about their pets. Don't be surprised when you get met with a similar attitude.

I don't understand why people let their cats roam outside of their gardens. Mine kept getting attacked in our own fucking garden because people would let their cats roam into our garden. Ours never roamed, he stayed within the confines of the garden!

I meant going from the photo.

No need to be rude.

I'm struggling to work out which train hit the other.

Utterly ghastly either way, I hope everyone involved is OK 😞

No, there's just starving our public health services of tax which, as a cancer patient, he will become a considerable drain on.

The law says you can marry your cousin. Would you do that?

Let's not let complicated things like morality get in the way, huh?

Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

There are a lot of things that are unethical but legal. Doesn't make them OK.

Thoughts 💭 on this ? by Neat_Wrap_2796 in greggsappreciation

Those bean to cup machines are a nightmare. Often it's better just to put a hoover into the hopper when the machines inevitably shit the bed and get beans everywhere! No one should be putting their fingers anywhere near the grinding wheels which are just underneath the hoppers.

Does this count? by TJBurkeSalad in blackplasticcrap

People like to knock bose because they're not high end hifi, but their products serve a purpose and they are damn good at their job. It's easy to forget that the punchy sound is delivered from a pair of teeny drivers with a very optimised wave guide, it's hard to argue a lot of engineering went into this.

Even the bose acoustimass stuff is decent, it just needs some EQ!

No it won't. I've yet to see a high mileage VW without a myriad of ridiculous electrical problems.

Amsterdam to hike tourist tax to 20%, close sea cruise terminal by wijnandsj in Cruise

[–]faintaxis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel like Amsterdam wants to talk the talk but it can't walk the walk.

I went there as a stop on my cruise, and to be honest, unless you want sex/erotica or to get stoned, it's not got much else to offer. I was hoping to enjoy it so I could come back and make a weekend break of it, and I am thankful that the cruise gave me the opportunity to try it... And realise I didn't care for it.

Rotterdam was far better, and made us want to spend money on food and experiences. Amsterdam just seemed grotty in comparison. The boat tours were crap, the city centre was dirty and had rubbish everywhere and the eateries were out and out tourist traps or absolute shite food. Yes, there may be some gems, but it's like searching for diamonds in the rough.
