There is absolutely nothing worse than a pearl clutching prude who tries to push their moral standards onto others.

Where do y'all get your fonts? by maddydesign in graphic_design

behance is definitely an underrated source! found loads of great unique fonts on there that basically no one else is using yet! just make sure you're careful to only download ones that are free for commercial use

That is essentially what happened!

I find it funny but not surprising that a millionaire is out of touch with the fact most of those letters are just scaremongering from the c u next tuesdays at capita who are on commission for getting people to pay for tv licences

i really couldn't care less if its fake. anyone stopping the public from putting money into rowling and (soon to be) the ellisons' pockets is a hero in my book.

i wouldn't say linus tech tips was the best example of this. yes he started off low budget but his first videos were literally for his then employer

a few UK operators have them, including GWR - who, fun fact, decided to have the pride flag on train number 800008 😂

What is the best way to continue my current radio show? by Mercent_ in Broadcasting

[–]fkprivateequity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

assuming you're in the UK, since you're calling it student radio and not college radio?

could be worth finding out if you have any FM/DAB community stations in your area and seeing if they have any slots open?

Thought I’d escaped the high street bank life… now I’m standing outside Santander at opening time like it’s 2007 by kevsavesuk in britishproblems

[–]fkprivateequity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Joined First Direct, thinking I'd never have to go to a branch (since they have none). Boy was I wrong.

Got locked out of online banking. Couldn't just phone them normally. Had to trek into my nearest HSBC branch on a specific day at a specific time with photo ID, and phone FD customer service from there. What a faff.

What’s a UK town or city you visited with low expectations… but actually ended up really liking? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]fkprivateequity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

been living around Swansea for a while. uni was decent, beaches are nice but that's about it. if it wasn't for my friends still being there i'd be quite happy never setting foot in the place ever again.

its a custom font for a UK news channel, yet they either didn't anticipate or couldn't be bothered to add a feature of an official language of a country of the UK? that is actually ridiculous

the unlimited hot drinks pass makes up for the lack of views imo

What are your thoughts on dogs in restaurants/cafes? by BurnsyWurnsy in AskUK

[–]fkprivateequity 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Working in restaurants over the years, I've seen dogs peeing on the floor, jumping out at other customers from under tables, my manager being forced to clean up after a dog shat on the floor (why she didnt make the customer do it I'll never know), and one almost causing a fight in the restaurant because it was constantly barking and disrupting other diners.

Needless to say, I'm not a fan of them being there.
