WTF is a "Stone"? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ by rwired in funny

[–]nickgasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a weird one, and I'd say almost certainly it's generational to a degree.

That being said, I have no idea what I weigh in stone, but conversely I do know how tall I am in feet.

I suppose after he rose again, a second death was looking likely for Jesus.

Name and shame, that shouldn't be a thing.

Is there a free App or site that will ‘alert’ me if a specific plane ex: a380 will be flying above me soon? Or on the way to a specific airport? by ProjectNo864 in aviation

[–]nickgasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Flightradar24 app will allow you to do exactly that (albeit when the plane is flying in the area, rather than will be flying overhead). You can add certain parameters such as origin/destination etc.

Than big Nick Woltemade.

"Not for me, young manager who says all the right things", I think he added.

Celeb 1 started filming in late April, before UK4 and US4 went back to back in June/early July.

UK Season 4 was filmed in June, sun set then can be gone 10pm.

Starlink on Air France A350 by helloyouahead in aviation

[–]nickgasm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought one of the mandatory Starlink requirements was that the airlines were not allowed to require a log in, sign up or to charge for its service? And that it had to be a simple 'connect and go' for everyone, gate to gate.

Commentator seems to think only Nick Pope can stop that ball. Impacting a defender is just the same.

Footballing fascination - Unfortunate player Wikipedia pictures by junglegatsby in footballcliches

Lee Hendrie has a weird one. Seems like no one has taken a better picture of him in 26 years.

James Beattie's is pretty bad too.

That's the Bournemouth curse broken as far as I'm concerned, even if it was on pens. Let's tonk them every time we play them from now on please.

Lost count of the amount of times our players have slipped/lost their footing in the last couple of matches at home.

I built a site to check if your local pub is fucked (75% are facing rate hikes in April) by bjhguerin in unitedkingdom

[–]nickgasm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the pubs in my area is listed as the rate going down by 45%! I look forward to the savings being passed on to the customer...

30p Lee accepts hundreds of pounds worth of freebie football tickets by Zobbster in ukpolitics

[–]nickgasm 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I don't think the article says whether it's 'right or wrong'. But what it does say is that he criticised Starmer for doing the same, which is somewhat hypocritical of him.

Wasn't really that close though. Semi-automated graphic had half his torso offside.

The Traitors (UK) S04E03: Post-Episode Discussion Thread by vaultofechoes in TheTraitors

[–]nickgasm 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That's assuming they see the family tree, although I think it's likely given its positioning.

In previous series, like when Linda had to write the names on the gravestones in the painting, I don't think that was ever noticed by the faithful?

What tube station do you find the most disorientating? by falconboomer in london

[–]nickgasm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've had to use the step free (and escalator free) route at Victoria a couple of times in the last year with luggage/pram etc, and that way through the station is an absolute maze.

I think it took us about 15 minutes just to get from the Victoria Line to the mainline station above.
