I think you may have erred sending it at after 1am. It's hard to look sane doing anything at almost 2am on a weekday.

>>450207
Not only did he not mention rent, the libertarian caterwauling about hypothetical what ifs is something of an irrelevance in comparison to what's actually happening. Not least because the real world consequences of the libertarian's own half-baked ideology have resulted in inequality on a incredible scale, an all-but-totally atomised society and a complete breakdown in trust between populace and elites.

>>450202
It's a Citroen C1. Not exactly my cup of tea but it's purely a little runaround for my girlfriend that I'll rarely use.

One of my neighbours has delivered a letter to all of the houses down the street saying she has blood cancer and soon she'll be doing a Walk of Light to raise money for blood cancer charities, so she'd appreciate it if everyone on the street would stand in their doorways when she sets off to cheer her on.

Is this going to be a thing now? Is this what the clapping has unleashed on us?

>>450213
Is that bad? Cheering on a woman with blood cancer? I don't want to imply you're a heartless bastard, but this is a real and tangible woman with blood cancer, what's the problem? It's not like the government are forcing you to bake cakes for MPs, or commit to a daily and public "salute to the Union Jack". You should probably be already at her front door offering whatever skills you have should she need them in her upcoming duel with blood cancer. Blood cancer.

Blood. Cancer.

>>450214
I don't object to doing it, I'm more concerned that I'll forget and the neighbours will have me pegged as a right bastard. They were bad enough with the pans during coronavirus.

>>450211
Oh, I mentioned rent in the email. Rents need to be capped so that the punitive taxes on property investors will not be passed on to renters. Cap the rents first and they'll never know what's going to happen to them later on down the line. But I made a point never to mention any calls to violence or anything like that. Just your usual angry email. Nobody's getting referred to Prevent here. I hope.

>>450214
If I had blood cancer I wouldn't pressure my neighbours into cheering me on for a walk. You can be an irritating person who has blood cancer.

Those two words infuriate me.

>>450221
I'm tempted to say them one more time, just in case you run the site and they've been word-filtered.

Thought I'd try a bit of raw broccoli. That was a mistake.

Just been to fill my car up. So much for the 5p cut in prices.

I'm doing it, I'm buying a Miata.

>>450226
I thought that was the American version? Enjoy your road Kaiten regardless.

Well bugger.
After avoiding it so far I've tested positive today for the lurgy after starting with a tickle cough and a runny nose yesterday.
Any advice lads?

Sometimes I wish I was a moderately attractive girl. The kind who makes a Twitch, gets 10-20 viewers on average, and coasts by as my beta orbiters donate bits to make funny meme comments. It would certainly be more lucrative and fulfilling than my current occupation. I wouldn't want to be an Amouranth, in front of thousands of people. Just a nice normie girl.

>>450229
The dream.

>>450229
Alright Graham.

>>450231
I'm no evangelist christian korean youtuber. I just see acquaintances of mine pick up streaming, and people in their chat are gifting subs and donating bits, even though the girls streaming have absolutely no interesting qualities. Money for nothing and the bits are free.

>>450232
No redeeming qualities whatsoever, they could never write something as good as the "Iran" sketch.

Christ, I just brushed my teeth, spat into the sink and it was so bloody I thought in that instant I might have been shot through back of the head. Turns out my gums along the inside of my molars are red raw.

>>450229
I find it hard to believe anyone could make a living off 10-20 people. You'll just have to become really good at a semi-niche game like Noita or some kind of simulator.

>>450233
That was a b-plot to a sitcom, not a sketch. This is how misinformation spreads on the internet, take some responsibility.

>>450235
> That was a b-plot to a sitcom, not a sketch
Sorry Charlie. We're can't all be successful screenwriters.

>>450235
How's your dental care routine generally?

>>450229
In the age of gender bending vtubers it's probably time you accept you can't become an entertainer because of your personality not because of your dangly bits.

>>450239

If you're really committed, you could always do a Philosophy Tube. Who would have thought that this knobhead would turn out to be quite a fit bird?

I sprayed the inside of my car with Febreze last week while I was giving it a thorough clean for the MOT, but now that indistinct, annoyingly inoffensive smell of Febreze still lingers in my car, and it's also absorbing the smell of the leather, which was always a nice touch whenever I got in my car.

Would not recommend.

>>450259
I give the car a full on tidy and wash for the MoT too, but it's pointless. The Mechanic isn't interested if he can see his face in the paint, only if it's not going to spontaneously collapse on the A38.

>>450260

More or less true, but in my experience, they always look for indications if a car has overall been well looked after. It may not reliably determine if you pass or fail, but at least on one occasion, I was let off with a minor defect for a corroded wing mirror, where the guy said that because the car was in very good condition and well looked after, he'd let it slide if I promised to replace the mirror glass soon.

My car is making funny noises after changing gear. I'm fairly certain it isn't the clutch as that was replaced in December so I suspect it's the transmission fluid.

I'll check when my girlfriend gets home from work in it but if it does need topping up should I just pour some in or take it into a garage so they can do a full oil change? It was serviced in October so I thought they'd have done it then.

Have any of you ever had to explain this websites name to any one? My girlfriend saw 'britfa.gs' in my browser and assumed it was a gay porn website.

>>450276
/y/ on earth would she think that, eh?

Come on, lads. If we spruce this place up like a gay porn site then >>450276 will get bummed by his Mrs. Someone get purple on the line to change the banners and set some tastefully gay music to autoplay.

>>450276
Show her the fat lass thread. That'll put her mind at ease.

>>450278
I do feel like pegging used to get brought up a lot more in the past than it does these days.

>>450279

Because two and a half of the three of us appear to be maidenless at present.

The search is only harder when you want to find one who's into pegging, but isn't also a mental fisherperson vegan pansexual woke nutjob too.

Tested covid positive, for the first time as far as I'm aware. Little bit scared lads, I'm a complete fanny/hypochondriac. I'm a little short on breath, fevery and weak.

>>450281
It sounds like you might die. Have you chatted to 111?

I'm 33 today. I definitely stopped caring/counting after 30, but still.

I've so far celebrated by seasoning a carbon steel pan in the oven, that I'd been meaning to do for a month, and have sent a slightly insulting offer for a Porsche 928 on facebook marketplace. These sound like mid life crisis activities, but I assure you I have been this way for at least a decade.

>>450283
Happy birthday, lad.

>>450283

Some of us were just born middle-aged.

I've been offered a job that has the working hours of "9-5" with a 1 hours unpaid lunch break.
That means I'll only be working 7 hours a day right? and it's not some corporate lingo to say I'll be working 8 hours with a 1 hour lunch on top. I'm yet to see the full contract, which I'll see on my first day but I've been given the important imformation.

I've been unemployed for the past 2 years so I'm having to come to terms with not having as much free time again and I'm worrying myself something awful with how long it takes me to get ready, commute, work, commute back and get settled in once home. It's a silly thing to wind myself up over I know but it's a sudden change to my otherwise uneventful unemployed life.
I didn't feel this warranted a thread in /job/ (or /emo/) so decided here.

>>450286
Most jobs I had when I left your situation were like that but from 09:00 to 17:30. If they specify 9-5, though, I don't think they can argue with the maths. Ask them in the job interview if you like; it'll show you're interested and have paid attention to what they actually wrote.

>>450286
Is it enforced hour long lunch in middle of the day? Are you keeping your own timesheet or case based or...what's the job? Is it just a job or are you intending on a career in the industry?

I work on timesheet and tend to take short lunches and leave early, but that's fairly fortunate and you might not be in the same situation.

>>450287
Already been offered it and I do intend to take it.

>>450288
It's an office job, I've no clue if it's enforced or not but if I can cut it down to half an hour I'll try to.
I'm not fussed if it's 7 hours work though, means I'll be working less a day than my previous job. I'm just a bit surprised at the money if I am working effectively 35 hours a week but then again, I've always been paid rather shit in the past.

>>450286

Did they advertise the job by its hourly rate or its yearly salary? Because I've noticed a lot of places will employ cheap tricks like this to make it look like your hourly rate is higher, by trimming 5 hours off every week at the same salary, but in effect it's the same 40 hour week you'd be working any other place and you're still encouraged to work through your lunch when it's busy etc.

Not saying that's definitely the case, but I would take whatever they say up front with a pinch of salt, and expect it not to be too drastically different from any other 9-5 you've ever had.

>>450290
Salary, not hourly

Went for a haircut this morning and they've put their prices up by 50p. Johnson's Britain.

>>450292
Supply chain, isn't it

I went to a second screening on flu-camp today and had to tell an attractive Spanish nurse that I'm not sexually active at the moment. She gave me a talk about contraceptives and where to get spermicidal lube 'if I do become sexually active'.

Didn't really set out to be reminded of what it feels like to be a younglad today.

Anyone else adding a few to their electricity meter readings to get some electricity tomorrow at today's prices? Those poor people with smart meters won't be able to do this.

>>450295
I got a nice email from my energy supplier saying they weren't going to raise it for another 15 days and if I was worried, encouraging me to change to a cheaper supplier.

I can’t sleep so I watched the film Legend. They really put some vile sentiments into the mouth of Frances Kray, so much so I’m convinced I’m misinterpreting the film or else it’s one of the repellent things I’ve ever watched. Maybe I’m wrong, I hope so.
