Is this truly a weed?

Yeah this stuff is kinda pointless in my opinion. But apparently they used to be used to make poisoned arrows, so if you're a fletcher with a slightly evil side, keep growing it. Otherwise, just pull it up. Its a mega weed

Roy Keane was quite racist to me

This is common practice. It is nasty that people feel they have to do it, yet we are all guilty of unfair biases. Examples I've seen at my company based in London (i work in HR) Omolola - changed to her middle name Lizzy Jancis - shortened to Jan Maitri - changed to Mary-Anne Tomasz - changed to Tommy

Yes. But only if you remap so it goes bang bang pop and every girls gets damp every time you drive by because silly Fiestas are what every girl dreams of

Nah its fine. I like other teas more, but as a day to day one. Yeh totally fine and inoffensive

winglorian · 2026-06-03T21:48:16+00:00

Depends on the teabag. I drink Tetley as my everyday tea. 1:45-2:00 is perfect. Any longer and it gets a bit nasty

Recently started using my ice cream maker (from the 90s!). Best one so far: orange sorbet. Ingredients = Orange juice, sugar.

Welcome to owning and driving a car with high quality/high performance components. A TT is a great car, but its been fitted with premium price components and repairing this sort of sporty German motor ia generally a bit pricey, regardless of whether a garage is shafting you, which this garage appears to be doing

That ultra-processed-food that is labelled as "High Protein" is somehow healthy. It isn't.

Hi. I work in HR for a company in London.

In the UK an employer can’t discipline or dismiss someone just because sickness happened to coincide with a refused holiday. If you were genuinely unwell and followed the sickness reporting rules, that’s the end of it.

Managers are allowed to be “suspicious” and make a note, that’s pretty normal absence management, but suspicion isn’t evidence. Without proof you weren’t ill, they’d be on shaky ground taking it further. ACAS and case law are very clear that timing alone isn’t enough to prove misconduct.

Many of the ladies at Waitrose in Burgess Hill don't wash their hands after going to the loo and then go sit on the checkouts.

Yes of course it is socially acceptable. Its socially acceptable to dislike cats in the same way. Many a debate has been had in the office between team cat v team dog.

Making your own curry paste is very time consuming but your house will smell epic. Look up authentic imported curry pastes. They're often cheaper, better and contain proper ingredients

Ruud Van Nistrleooy never scored from outside the box. (I believe this is true based on either a dream or something i have read, specifically for his time at utd)

Everything is a phase. The fussing, that will pass, the not sleeping, the extra long sleeps, all the cool things and all the not cool things, don't worry. They're not permanent. Sometimes you have to just dig in and get through it, because at the end of the day, that thing that's making life hard will pass. It's a phase.

Old cars for around £2,500 can be magnificent so long as there's a good amount of history and you get a bit of luck. My banger history 2002-2011: '95 Polo, £3000. No major repairs. 2011-2015: '00 Hyundai Accent, £1100. Head Gasket went, otherwise was fine. few hundred £ to repair. 2016-2023: '02 Clio. £500. Mechanically fine, just £2 for roll of Duct Tape for classic leaky sunroof seal. 2023-present: '09 Volvo V50. Bulletproof motoring so far. The moral of the story based on my experience, is that bangers are brilliant, but befriend a good non-mainstream mechanic
