A looooong time ago I learned to drive.

Figuring out the clutch was just a single driving lesson. He took me to a road which was basically a long hill with no traffic around. He got me to head up the hill in first gear, then to slowly start depressing the clutch until we stopped moving. Then he got me to just play with lowering the clutch more (we slowly start to roll back), lifting the clutch (we start to crawl forward), adding some more throttle and then catching and holding it on the clutch again, rolling back slightly, crawling forward slowly, and again, and again - all while listening to the engine note so I could hear just before we stalled. We spent about half an hour on that hill and by the time we left it I had pretty much mastered holding the car on the clutch.

Not trying to pick a fight here.

I’m genuinely curious how TikTok has changed society. I don’t use it, but then nor does my teenage daughter. I get that it is/was popular, and changed the way people consume some kinds of content, but I don’t see that it changed society in any fundamental way.

Oui!

Alabama 3. I saw them lots of times in little pub venues and playing non-main stages at festivals in the mid to late 90's.

Blew my mind when I went to live in the US in 1999, put the TV on, and one of their tracks turned out to be the opening theme tune to this relatively new show called The Sopranos.

He doesn't need a moustache when he's sporting that gargantuan tallywhacker.

Saw a thing about the world's most expensive pizza ($2k+) the other night. Squid ink pizza dough, caviar, truffles, gold leaf, etc. It looked revolting.

Labour's weak attitude to immigration is to blame here just letting these thieves just fly into the country!

I was furious with my wife in a dream recently and it did take a couple of hours for me to be alright with her the next morning.

"At least the fucking bullet wasn't venemous!"

I look forward to Trump having this guy arrested shortly followed by Arnie coming out of retirement, tooling up, and taking the fight to the orange man. "I told you I'd be back!"

You get a knife, you get a knife, everyone get's a knife!

Autostart and lane assist are turned off in my car.

There is no height to beans, only depth.

Commodore Pet 4016

Then a Commodore 64. Loved that machine.

You, sir, are a gentleman, a scholar, and a poet.

Don't forget that in WW2 UK civilians were taught to pay attention to other peoples' shoes because of rumours of hairy-handed nuns in Fallschirmjäger issue boots. This kind of shit is nothing new.

Nothing real ever happens here. So me picking bits off the scab on my left knee has a good chance of making the national press.

More likely the 'journalist' just grabbed a stock image (it even credits Getty Images) of paragliders.

"Listin, his name is Listin. His sister? Listelle. What? His parents? Sigh. Listanathon and Listhana. His dog? Rufus, now can we move along, please?"
