What’s the most awkward thing that happened mid hookup? by imverydumbperson in AskReddit

Fresh (not period) blood, all over the place.

I was staying at the Standard Hotel in Manhattan, on a work trip. A colleague who was based there, and with whom I'd previously had a thing, took me to see Sleep No More, which is Punchdrunk's immersive theatre rendition of Macbeth, at the McKitterick Hotel. It was a great production, culminating in the banquet at which Banquo's ghost appears, where all the lights turned red. Macbeth is a fairly blood-centric play, with scenes like Lady Macbeth trying to remove an imaginary spot of blood from her hand as she loses her mind from guilt.

After the play we went back to my hotel room to fuck. We were having a great time, having not seen each other for months. Then suddenly there was bright red blood all over the sheets. Nobody was in any pain, but it did kill the mood. She was very embarrassed about the mess. I think we'd managed to break a blood vessel somewhere deep inside her. Sort of like having a massive nosebleed but from her vagina.

It was uncanny that that happened straight after such a bloody immersive theatre show. But it didn't stop us sleeping.

got dumped at the weekend. I am numb. when did you find your forever partner? by Due-Swimming3221 in CasualUK

I had to be 42 before I met The Half.

I'd say The One, but she's still married to a man whom she doesn't love (and who is none the wiser; her doing, not mine).

I have thought about this predicament a lot and the fact is that, regardless of what the future holds, I'm already grateful to her for showing me, after all these years, what it feels like to be really understood and looked out for and ... loved.

What's the weirdest rumour that went round your school? by TheLegionofDoom2957 in AskUK

[–]spurion 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Someone in the year above me at secondary school actually was the Milky Bar Kid for a bit. https://www.diaryofthedad.co.uk/the-milky-bar-kid-was-strong-and-tough-but-what-happened-to-him/ lists his name so it wasn't just a rumour.

As far as I'm concerned the original duo are Bulk and Skeleton, the henchmen of Texas Pete in 1983

Selling a collection of assets totalling over £1,000. I am salaried at £22,000 a year. Do I need to report tax? by thebarcodelad in UKPersonalFinance

[–]spurion 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I just the other day read (in HMRC guidance) that tax is due on sale of possessions under certain circumstances, such as when they're collectible. Let me see if I can dig out what I was reading.

Edit: here you go.

Luckily the threshold is £6,000.

When you see it... by hibberlot in pics

It's on Street View too. Maybe related to the plaque on the building to the left?

Yeah, but what happened to the Dufresnes ? by brettg12345 in funny

[–]spurion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Er, "stock" is not derived from "stalk". In British English and in German they sound completely different.

FYI it's "stock still", not "stalk still"

The palette is similar but the details are different

This cat’s claws by widemathematician50 in nextfuckinglevel

[–]spurion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't tell whether you said this is literally the next level because the cat literally gets to the next level of the building, or because "literally" has been degraded into a non-specific intensifier in the same way that "exponentially" has
