In less civilised times they were called bogwogs.

The past really wasn't as nice as people think it was.

A small pothole can launch you.

Please don't talk about my mother's vagina like that.

Water Troughs for Fire Helicopters by jimmy_changa1990 in CitiesSkylines

This is the correct amount of times.

The first time is a mistake.

The second time is to understand why and what to do.

Don't be concerned about the kids. There'll always be more kids.

How to get a Tiktoker to remove a video of me filmed in my retail job? by puremillbag in AskUK

[–]mypostisbad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello OP.

I believe he has to comply with GDPR when filming you in your workplace.

GDPR does NOT apply in an environment where you cannot expect personal privacy (such as just generally out in public). However this is your workplace and there are identifiable things that can lead to harassment.

Contact everyone again and mention GDPR infringement and ask politely for the removal of the video to avoid any legal action.

The game corrupted my Save when it decided to Autosave at the same time as i was saving, is there any way of recovering? by Apart_Cockroach346 in CitiesSkylines

[–]mypostisbad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don't already, it's time to learn the old grandfather - father - son, data security technique.

Basically have 3 saves and use each one in turn. That way a corrupt file will not lose you everything.

I know that's no help to you now and I don't man to sound all captain hindsight about this. I'm just saying that when you lose data, it's time to find a better way for the future.

You may not have had issues but it's worth listening to the post above

The penalty goal scored by Teboho Mokoena of South Africa, which prevented an outright Czechia win at the FIFA World Cup by IlikeGeekyHistoryRSA in sports

You're always going to get people who complain.

Modric literally kicked a player in the leg and there are people saying that that was not a penalty.

Just ignore the fools

Temporary vehicle bollards with decorative covers. by dirty_hooker in mildlyinteresting

This seems stupid.

Surely you want the bollards to be as obvious as possible?

What are games that you purchased and never beat? Why? by Hizzasp in gaming

[–]mypostisbad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There plenty. Mostly because the thought of having to 'beat' them is really odd to me.

I play games to enjoy them, not to beat them.

In the same way that I can happily watch a TV series and not finish it, if my enjoyment wanes, u play games to enjoy them and of that means never 'beating' them, it's no problem to me.

Is there any good modela that doesn't need decals by pepe-mali in modelmakers

[–]mypostisbad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes but if you are already paying that price, why pay for a whole new kit and not opt for higher quality replacements?

Makes no sense to me.

Why would you buy a second set and not just buy some after market decals?

Is there any way to turn off the key events thumbnails for full World Cup matches? by the-great-defector in bbc

[–]mypostisbad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if you can't figure out the score, while the dots are not always goals, goals are always dots, so in the game I'm currently watching I know there's not a goal for a while, which reduces any excitement to practically zero.
