In the end the RAF are the ones supplying and supporting the terrorist Israeli regime.
- Comment on Devil May Cry isn't that great of a series 1 week ago:
Agree. 5 was a fun spectacle but the character switching really was ass, and playing as V it felt like the winning strategy was just buttonmashing. Still was very happy it got made after DMC.

That X1950 pro and Core 2 Duo are pretty awesome if the year is 2007. 5400rpm HDD lets it down a bit though.
- Comment on The joy of quitting a shit job with an asshole boss 2 weeks ago:
If your employer is paying you the bare minimum, then you’re the sucker if you’re putting in more than the bare minimum of effort.
Sure, if you work really hard you might get some recognition in the form of a thank you and perhaps a gift worth less than $50. If you do it for long enough you might get a promotion and a pay rise - but you’ll still be earning far less than the person they hired from outside to do the same job and you’ll have worked much harder for it.
In most companies, 99% of the benefit from you working hard goes to the owners. They don’t give you any more than 1% because they don’t have to.

What about Bogdan, who was catapulted into space in 1377 in a freak trebuchet accident which was never recorded?

So? A lot of people dont have PAYE income, they still have income. What point are you trying to make? Are you trying to argue that £181k doesnt put you in the top 1%?
- Comment on The Telegraph has deleted this sob story 4 weeks ago:
Top 1% of income from all sources which includes your 200 mega rich families. 1% of 70m people is 700k people. Of course the top 0.1% are way richer.
- Comment on The Telegraph has deleted this sob story 4 weeks ago:
I think most people would see that as ultra rich or super rich. To most people “rich” means having significantly more money than them. So given that the median salary in the UK is £37k, most people would probably say someone on £80k is rich, even though its pretty easy to earn that much and still want for more.

The reference is from his first book which was all about his experiences living with the downtrodden in Paris and London. In fact that’s why he used the pen name George Orwell - he didn’t want to risk harming the reputation of his middle class family.

£181k is all you need to be in the top 1% in the UK.

- Comment on The clueless people are out there among us 1 month ago:
Europlugs are small, similar to us plugs. But the bulky schuko is very common in Europe. Europlugs are compatible with schuko sockets and many others.
You can fit two or three europlug sockets in the same amount of space as one schuko or British socket.

Looks like a common brown snake. Second most venomous in the world. It won’t kill you in 2.5s, but a bite on the arse could do you in in an hour.

He’s an excellent and prolific author of comedic fantasy novels. Its worth at least picking up one of his books to see if its your cup of tea.
- Comment on GoneWild was once about people feeling wild and posting pictures of it. Now it's just OnlyFans sale 4 months ago:
It does though because it floods the medium with content from people just looking to make money. And it happens everywhere. When ebay started it was an online garage sale, now it’s mostly businesses. Etsy used to be a place where creative types sold their crafts, now its flooded with dropshipped tat from Ali Baba. YouTube used to be random people uploading stuff for fun and expression, now it’s mostly about sponsorship money. Twitter used to be a novel way for people to briefly express their thoughts, now its a fascist propaganda machine.
