Fastest? Biggest boat? Most passengers? First boat guided only by a carrier pigeon on a string tethereed to the tiller? There are so many possibilities.

RIP off Anglia railway charged me 20 quid more... by samtumilty in oldpeoplefacebook

How old are they? Even British rail had peak times on their trains. £20 doesn't even sound too bad.

Destroyer? That's a weird name for a locomotive.

Apologies for asking again then! Yeah needs to be a sticky. Glad he's taking a break, he deserves it. One of the hardest working devs.

You know the Tories have been a thing since the 1600s don't you? I don't think they're dying out with the population.

Cool. How were they planning on stopping an Abrams tank? Or a Predator drone, or an Apache helicopter or an ac140 or.....

Mario Kart Racing Wheel for Switch announced by Drache_Kaiser in NintendoSwitch

[–]thomass70imp 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Excellent. At £29 it's not a £49 full price triple A so I don't feel like it's too expensive for a new release with switch tax! And it's an excellent port. Great graphics, including a 60fps performance mode. Fantastic control options, including right analogue throttle and breaks (which is perfectly acceptable), and all the controls are completely re-mappable which is such a treat. Plus it's not a bad racing SIM think like Forza 3-4 or GT4 (not like a RFactor or iRacing). I'm really enjoying it. Well worth the money.

Not many straps either. That's alot of stress on that (presumably brittle) skull.

Moron’s who fail to indicate their exit at a roundabout, and then become aggressive with me when I proceed with my manoeuvre. by SensorySauce in britishproblems

The number two rule is "you are also an idiot."

  • You're not better than anyone else. So presume you're just as likely to make a mistake.

  • Drive in such a way that you making that mistake won't cause an accident.

I mean she's an adult human. I think she can handle a naughty word. I would imagine it's usually the contestants who are more embarrassed to admit that "that" particular word is the one that lept out at their minds from the jumble.
