  • Don't be fooled!

    I tried to meet this guy for an autograph, stood in line for ages, and when it was my turn do you know what this record holder said, for a simple autograph???
    \ He said, "I'm gonna need about tree fiddy."

    That's when I noticed this breath holder was about 50ft tall and from the protozoic era!

  • I've resorted, about a year or so ago, to using large bottles of natural spring water for the kettle (when making tea/coffee).
    \ It's an extra expense, however the lack of scaling has been lovely. Not had to clean my kettle once.

    My sink is another story though.

  • It makes washing dishes incredibly efficient, with less water wastage. I could wash the dishes for a family of four in absolutely no time at all, but without a double sink that takes much longer with more water used.

  • I save up for the Netherlands. There are enough places to just get a peace of mind, away from people, with a nice spliff and no one to bother me about it.

    I've been three times within the span of a year, and will be going back in a few months.

  • This is good advice. I put up with back issues and sciatica for years, before some time ago I had an MRI - confirmed disc issues in my lower spine.
    \ It's not the best and I am waiting for another MRI to see how it is now, yet without the diagnosis, follow up physiotherapy, etc. it would be considerably worse right now.

    Mid-30s here.

  • Not as severe as the actual condition, however when one of my childhood cats was hit by a car, I tried to check her pulse and blood splurted from her ear onto my hand. For several years afterwards I would constantly wash my hands, moreso when I was stressed/anxious. I would wash them with soap, then wash them again. Sometimes I would dry them, and then go back to wash them again.
    \ Psychedelics helped me realise the fear of 'always having her blood on my hands', in a very serious and confrontational manner to my trauma. It's difficult to explain the mental journey to rewire the habit away, though ultimately I began to understand an aspect of my plight as a source to the action.

  • I'm like the Simpsons. Season 1 was choppy, I had a good rise and plateau'd during some golden years.
    \ However I'm now into Season 582 and my writers have been replaced with chimpanzees doing a terrible impression of Arnold Schwarzenegger on loop.

  • This is what I use. Stremio, Torrentio add-on for Torrent sources, and a bit of tinkering so I don't see the paid options. Works pretty well for single episodes of some shows (for others I download the box set).

    Edit: I mean it works for full shows, but when I really like a show enough I'll have a hard drive copy.

  • Probably for the experiences. The sort of things kids do in these schools seem more lavish, I mean, as much as I enjoyed my school trip to a farm I'm not sure if that's the sort of thing they'd consider.
    \ Although David Cameron did shag a pig, so not sure if that's true for all of those schools.

  • When I was in university, one of the source materials required was at an absurd price. The lecturer made a point that it makes no sense to spend that much money on something we are unlikely to use beyond the module, so she encouraged us to use Z-Library and provided links. I really miss her, she was an absolutely fantastic lecturer.

  • My cats need me to tell them good morning with cuddles, or they get upset. I video call with them when I'm on holiday, and they rub their faces on the phone.
    \ Can't beat that sort of affection, they brighten my days.

  • Weed and food. The former isn't a problem, the latter can be.

    When I'm stressed I have to consciously be very aware of my eating. During lockdown I was spending a hundreds per month on just food.
    \ Within two years after lockdown ending, I managed to lose 36KG. I try my best to keep a good weight, and I'm within acceptable ranges as per the BMI, however every once in a while I would have a bad day and eat an entire extra large pizza to myself for lunch.
