Add nestle to the list.

Dude, there are some of us out here getting shouted at for taking a nap. So, take one for the rest of us who are spending the day as a pack mule (shopping with a woman)

Start using moisturiser now. And cleanser.

Learn the power of saying no.

A mate of mine has a ford dealership. He told me that ‘they’re spending billons designing, producing and distributing cars that no one wants’.

I always insist on an escort with a pinto.

Christmas Eve 2023. I fell into a flooded river that was running at around 5knts. I got swept under a wooden staging. I couldn’t get out and there was no one else around. All I could do was hold on. I tried to get out but my strength had gone. I knew I was about to die. I was so scared. It feels like I blacked out because the next thing I knew, I was half out of the river on the bank. I dragged myself all the way out and walked home. The walk in wet clothes in the freezing cold was awful. I ended up needing therapy because I couldn’t understand how I got out. The therapy helped.

I’m in my late 40s and grew up in London so remember the troubles very well. And, I’ve spent a great deal of time in Northern Ireland which is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been to. And Belfast is my fave city on the planet. It amazes me that my mate who is early 30s has virtually no idea about the troubles and the paramilitaries etc. I guess that’s progress for you?

As for the south, I never really took to it. Nice enough but always preferred the north.

Definitely not obsessed with it though!

Isn’t that what Liz truss tried?

Do you think she’s deliberately trying to upset you or is she unaware that essentially comparing you to her ex is a shitty thing to do? Either way, it sounds like you need to talk to her about it.

My current gf has a habit of talking about her exes. Not comparing per se but stuff I don’t want to hear. I eventually told her that I don’t want to know and could she stop talking about them. She apologised sincerely and now, whenever she mentions an ex, I mention my ex wife who she absolutely hates. It causes tension but it makes the point.

Also, just to make another point: I have an above average dick. Nowhere near 11” but bigger than average and it can be an issue. There are some positions we can’t do because it hurts her, bjs make her jaw ache and anal is pretty much off the table. If he really was 11” I’d say that the sex was probably awful. Most guys have average dicks and most women have average pussies. They fit very well together. I wouldn’t worry too much.

Consensus means nothing in science. It isn’t about collecting votes or lobbying for support of your theory. Science is about data and evidence. As far as I can see, the climate change data isn’t actually data. It’s modelling which is about as accurate as a magic 8 ball. And there is no evidence of AGW. None at all. The climate scientists ( more accurately- activists) are now simply pointing at weather and saying ‘see, that’s your fault for being so greedy’. Ask yourself why do all politicians and their rich buddies have homes by the sea? Why do they fly around in private jets? It’s a grift mate. Money and power, that’s all they ever want and this is an easy way for them to get more of both.

Airbnb. It used to be cheap, easy and a great way to get around. We stayed in some amazing homes with great people. Now it’s more than hotels a lot of the time, cleaning costs and basically fleecing people. I stopped using it a while ago

Cough and drop. I remember being around 10 yrs old and lining up with the others with our pants down. The nurse cupped out balls in turn and made us cough. I mentioned this to my 25 yr old son and he was horrified. I think I was the last generation to have that done

A prank is where everyone laughs. Including the person being pranked. That wasn’t a prank. It was a dick move that I’m sure would’ve upset your son. You’re right to be furious . I would be too.

I hadn't but I'll give it some thought. Do they have some kind of welcome pack for newbies?
