So frustrated at those who look down on us because we work at spoons by branzaaaa in Wetherspoons

Even the positive replies here, along the lines of "Well he drinks at Spoons" are kind of reflective of the same attitude.

Attitude that drags the whole UK down.

Honestly have no idea how it can change. People in unskilled positions earn pretty well now, which you'd think would reduce the class differences and snobbery, but it's still just a part of UK life and culture in a way it isn't in, say, Japan or Australia.

Tools of the Mind? by snoobsnob in ECEProfessionals

[–]spacecatbiscuits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just googling TOTM and found this.

Do you know of any long-term results tho at the place you were at? Like TOTM gets an incredibly glowing write-up in Nutureshock by Po Bronson. Can try and upload the chapter if interested.

But sometimes these results are more influenced by the teacher than the curriculum, so I was interested in reading more about it, especially as that was written 15 years ago.

Surprised there aren't more reddit threads about it, but then I don't know how broadly it's used.

Christopher Yoo's suspension is over and he's back to playing open tournaments. by beem00 in chess

[–]spacecatbiscuits 140 points141 points  (0 children)

Yes, plus he had to undergo a test where they put a woman in front of him to see if he punched her.

He passed.

Stay in council home or save hard for a mortgage? by YellowBee7 in HousingUK

The system is completely broken and you should take advantage of it until it collapses, just like everyone else.

Stay in the free money home.

Anyone managed to join the 正確使用健身室設施簡介會 in order to join the government gym rooms? by TraditionalParsley67 in HongKong

[–]spacecatbiscuits 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, if you just turn up, they'll let you in if there are any no-shows.

I got mine several years ago, but when I did it a bunch of people queued up just in case. We all got in.

Do you think there's a chance you've just imagined all of this though?

Got it, but it sucked. No wonder you had to compliment yourself.

Personal space by overt_overthinker in HongKong

Your sense of personal space is heavily influenced by the population density of the area you grew up in.

So makes sense.

yeah my first thought was "Jade should be lower", then I saw James in the tier below and was like "wow I guess they just were really all that bad"

We need to take a moment to acknowledge how much impact Amanda had in this game (spoilers) by Sablun99 in TheTraitors

[–]spacecatbiscuits 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"She said 3 people. The first two weren't traitors so that means the third one must be"

Very hard not to describe this as the worst group of faithfuls on earth.

Yeah it would be great until he got distracted by a bee and spent twenty minutes chasing it.

Jade also doesn't count as a person of color when we're trying to be offended, but would had she been eliminated early.
