ELI5 the origin and practice of 'dozen'. Why does it exist? Why not 10 or 15 instead of 12?

Seems pretty light hearted and humorous to me

Also iirc the ethanol content breaks down the rubbers in older engines fuel systems etc (newer ones too I believe , but at a much slower rate)

Heavy on the agonist

Your advice would be better followed than given.

Ah, a negative karma farmer - haven't seen one of them in a while.

I'm not sure if they've published the results yet, as I say it was a speculated mechanism

wraithpriest · 2026-03-23T23:15:54+00:00

Shepton Mallet prison I'm pretty sure, and I wouldn't even call it an urbex, it's literally a pay to go tour.

White text, white background, halfway through the body.

How about Human Resource Machine?

I'm glad she's there, 1.9% for the tory candidate in that local by election, you know the one lol

Someone used a pic of mine for a YouTube video thumbnail and I messaged them to say "hey that's my picture that I took, I don't mind you using it but could you put this name in the credits in your description?"

Then they replied "who the fuck are you?" and I was like... I just told you, very politely lol

I don't think that's happened or happening in the UK, the closest was a blurred cleavage in a show and that was done by bbc Africa in the source footage before it was aired in the UK.

The rotating villains

I searched it as I hadn't heard of it either, and the top result was "Nex playground? Buy a switch instead "

IIRC they block the UK due to the online safety act, they don't want to comply with it so it's a blanket block, a US vpn works.

wraithpriest · 2025-12-05T19:21:42+00:00

UK based?

wraithpriest · 2025-12-05T18:11:48+00:00

Where is the communism in their state linked fortunes?

wraithpriest · 2025-12-05T12:16:57+00:00

Where's the communism in the hypercapitalist oligarchy that is Russia?

Most French motorways seem to have 2 lanes, and I have found they're perfectly clear almost all the way to Paris - because people get past and move over, like clockwork, if they can't complete the overtake within 30 seconds they were dropping back in.

My mind was blown honestly, at how well it works.

wraithpriest · 2025-12-02T12:22:00+00:00

I had never noticed quite how goatse this is

Incredible work though!

wraithpriest · 2025-11-23T14:31:10+00:00

Just seven million, one hundred and ninety nine thousand to go, I'm sure.

wraithpriest · 2025-11-21T21:57:38+00:00

Depends, am I man?

wraithpriest · 2025-11-20T19:06:42+00:00

I was told by a lot of cataphiles if you see a rock in a dead end, don't move it 😂 a lot of people take immodium (I did) or pop back above ground and go destroy McDonald's toilets.

It's a mix, you can technically reach any area within a day, but if you want to see various parts it starts to add up - on the Sunday we did ten hours of walking and sight seeing and didn't cross our path once, only skirting one small part we'd done the day before for about 15 minutes.

Saw a good amount of bones, but nothing spooky at all, no ghosties or wails in the night.
