I like the way you think but it's not always true. I mean... Treating cancer, fixing a leaking roof, fighting your way out of an addiction? I'm kinda OK with a bit of ruthlessness in those circumstances. As long as you're using it where others can't be hurt by it.

I'd want an "emotional issue inverter" ray. Courage for the timid, shame for the shameless, honesty for liars, generosity for the mean spirited... The potential to upset the norms of society would be enormous. I'd be a wanted man in no time.

Just had to Google Gwynedd Rae so I knew what this was on about. I mean, they've got a point.

This pun is both long, long overdue and astonishing I've never heard it before.

...and the artists who bitch about being shut off because the venue/local authority has a strict time limit can feck off too. You're not so wonderful you get to jepordise all future gigs at that venue. Piss off.

I once made it home after a night shift through driving snow, just before the roads closed. My neighbours knocked on my door at 7am asking if I'd help dig paths clear, after I'd opened a bottle of rum. They made their excuses, left, and the next day one of them decided to stage an intervention.

Definitely contributed more to them. No doubt about that.

If you have cause to go into a field with deep, soft mud, or worse, that goes over the ankle, or wade into any water above the thinnest shallows, only wellies will do. Admittedly this is niche for most people but I have to visit places like this and I'm a townie who works from home.

Love it! Nicking it, obviously.

My home number growing up was close to an internal number for the cardiac department of the local hospital. On at least one occasion my father had a blazing argument with a consultant who insisted he hadn't made a mistake and accused my dad of being a prankster putting lives at risk for a joke.

Been going out for an early evening curry on Halloween for years. It's become a favourite tradition now. We had a table of 7 this year and had a great time.

It doesn't ruin it exactly ,but like Spinal Tap, it makes its appeal more selective. My top tip is adding Marmite. The smothering effect of the mashed pulses really smooths out the punch of the Marmite into glorious umami lushness.

Sorry, what?

You had me at "Fuck off Spotify".

Yeah. And?

I've got a streak approaching 3000. You have no idea of the power of weaponised OCD in creating addictive behaviour patterns.

So use headphones like you would on public transport you thoughtless nobhead.

I think you're talking about The Flower Duet from Lakme, by Delibes. It actual words being sung, but it's opera and in French, so mutual intelligibility at most people's level of engagement is pretty low.

It's true that the Permian extinction had the greatest recorded loss of life overall but the current extinction is happening at the fastest rate recorded, so don't judge the final standings just yet.

I feel your pain. I look terrifying in certain clothes. Effectively can't wear a Fred Perry without serious consideration. It's a license to walk down dark and scary streets unbothered, but every choice comes with costs and benefits. Enjoy confounding expectations when you can.

Redding to would work just fine. Open goal missed there.

Perverts? Projection much? The perversion is in the mind of the perceiver. Try being less literal you judgemental fucknugget. Responsible pet ownership mandates care and consideration as if they're family members. It's just easier linguistically.

As my mother used to say, it takes all sorts, but this guy managed it with cola bottles, so she was probably just using her loose bowels as cover for her licorice addiction.

Just rewound your thread from today's comment for this one. Classic. There's so many randoms that get sticky nicknames. Foxy Scooter Guy still gets mentioned from over 20 years ago.

Ypu know you can boil the water first, don't you? It really speeds things up.
