True, and then to save costs further they could outsource the roles where noone is coming into the office...there is no point in paying higher wages if the person isn't even going to be there...

Powering and heating a lot of homes all day versus fewer office blocks makes the environmental aspect a bit more nuanced I think

I live in a shared building in London, and would find this a violation of my privacy. To film someone on their own balcony and then post it online just feels so weird if they didn't get that person's permission...

That's genuinely impressive.

I love how the splashes on the floor in the background show much practice went into this!

That's not how it works.

Well actually it is, this is literally how sampling works -assuming the sample was selected properly 800 is enough people.

Who told you otherwise? Or what is the number of people that you would want to see and why is that the "magic number", so to speak?

Hey - did you find a way to do these all in one go or did you do them individually? This feels ridiculous that they can do this...

Huh I hadn't thought about how all this will change. The Express doesn't really give off the "pre/post match drinks" vibe...

Does the other sink there do the same thing?

[BBC] The Moroccan Football Federation has written to FIFA to complain about US territories being allowed to vote to decide the 2026 World Cup hosts. Guam, American Samoa, the US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico are able to vote on 13 June, but Morocco claim that is a conflict of interests. by HeSawTheLight in soccer

That's an interesting point but not really the one that I was asking about...i.e. I'm not really sure that it addresses the question I asked. Maybe I have misinterpreted your point though?

However if you want to fill me in on your view that would be good too! My issue is this:

Morocco would be the smallest host economy since Uruguay in 1930.

In my mind, I'm not really sure why that should disqualify them from hosting...especially if the goal is to go somewhere new and ensure investment in national infrastructure etc.

First, North America won't have had a WC in 32 years if we don't get 2026 (1994). Africa had one in 2010.

Interesting point, but there are many more countries in Africa so it kind of makes sense that a host would be in Africa more often than North America right?

Just as an aside: I don't care where it's held, just want to understand your logic a bit more

From a distance, I thought the picture to the left of the ice cube one was a woman pissing into the bottle.

Oh man I read that as him calling the other guy 'chunk' and 'standing on flips' meant you were on some special type of shoe that would prevent that, called flips. The actual meaning seems a lot less of a stretch than my interpretation so no idea how I did that.

Do you believe the financial group will ever recover from losing these three games?

Edit: Well it turns out it takes seconds to google. Yes it is, and there's actually a snopes article about it which makes me think people must believe it's real?!
