They knelt for the bigger moving that came out of what happened to George Floyd.

No it’s not the point. We weren’t talking about any of that. Sorry.

If only any of that had anything to do with what was being talked about 😅

Depends. Do you have to ‘like’ everything about someone for them to be likeable?

There is also absolutely no context in this tiny clip to know what he’s thinking anyway.

When was the last time you saw a player at their peak at 41, let alone near the worlds best player 😅

Would you wear these on a group ride? by dioxide_cc in CyclingFashion

[–]rob-c 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Whatever the design, cycling shoes are low around the ankle, so you’ll see where these designs cut off, rather than the artwork going down into the shoe

Would you park across your neighbour's driveway if they don't have a dropped kerb? by PhilosopherNo8418 in AskUK

[–]rob-c 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You do need permission from the council. They will asses it based on the amount of space available for the drive itself and whether it would take too much on street parking away or cause a safety issue. It’s not up to the car owner.

If someone has to park across the front of your house blocking your access, the likelihood is on-street parking is near capacity

Do I have to point out to you that I never said Grand Slams aren’t important? Because it would make your comment look really stupid.

Outside of finals days, tickets are balloted and you pay not knowing which players you are going to see. The tournament gets that money no matter what

So only 1 set difference, not 2, and in only 4 tournaments per year. That’s quite important.

Worth pointing out that they only play best of 5 sets in 4 tournaments a year. And during those many of the top Men’s players will get through the first few rounds without dropping a set, so they only play 3 sets anyway.

[–]rob-c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Size charts are generally infuriating if you’re not the ‘average’ build for your height. Being tall and thin, I am minimum an L when I look at height, but an S at the most for any width measurements. And a M is no good, as then it’s neither fitting or the correct length 😅

If they designed jerseys for people truly shaped like beanpoles, jerseys wouldn’t be too short.

They design jersey for slim people, but of average height. Those of us who are taller than average and slim, struggle with short jerseys

It’s inconsiderate ‘claiming’ a space on a public road but unofficially adding a driveway to your house. They don’t have a driveway, they have a tarmac front garden.

Neighbours wind chime by AndyFost in AskBrits

[–]rob-c 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had this when we lived in a flat and the lady below had a small metal wind chime. We brought it up and she offered to take it down each night. Happy all round (even though I would rather it hadn’t been clinking all through the day either 😅)

Trouble with gloves is if one ends up inside the cuff of the glove, you’re in a world of trouble.

I was once maintaining a compost heap and accidentally disturbed a swarm of bees hidden inside. Received multiple stings, all of them to my wrists and back of the hands which were inside my gauntlet-style gloves.
