Rhino, you did this to me!

I made it about halfway through before saying gently caress it and scrolling down to see how much was left.

I honestly don't understand how anybody could write something like that and not realize just how punchable it makes them look.

I can't decide whether the person who wrote that is a 30 year old smug rear end in a top hat or 70 year old smug rear end in a top hat.

Gonna go with 30 year old smug rear end in a top hat trying to sound like a 70 year old smug rear end in a top hat, with delusional memories of events before 1980.

The Vaughan Williams thing is spot on though, can't argue with that point.

You'd think so, but it seems to be a gardening blog ran by a retired old British man. The last post is him saying he hasn't been updating much because he's fallen ill, but that he'll be back to posting pictures of his garden soon.

That post was made in 2009. :smith:

That was way too long and I didn't think there were British people that talked that way anymore

That could have just been, "Went to B&Q, didn't like music, cared enough to talk to management who didn't give a gently caress because it was probably his music I was insulting, I wasted 45 minutes expecting music to change, now I like Janet Jackson"

If it was a huge chain, it probably wasn't even his music, it was handed down from Corporate. So waiting 45 minutes for the music to change is even more hilarious.

A few years ago a friend and I found a phone at a bus stop. We thought there was a decent chance it could belong to someone we knew since it was outside our high school, and it didn't have a passcode, so we opened it up and went into photos to see if we could recognise anyone. We couldn't, but there were many, many photos of drug making equipment and drugs, and a few selfies (lesson one of a burner phone: do not use it for selfies). We went into messages (because by that point we were straight up just snooping) and a heap of the conversations were deals, with quantities, times, and pickups listed. We dropped the phone to the police and showed them what was on it, who found it hysterical.

I mean yeah that bud convo is stdh but holy hell do people make it easy for the police to lay charges these days.

I kind of think it is. The point of retiring is not that you don't have to work anymore, it's that you no longer have to care what anyone thinks about what you say.

But you DO admit to otherwise wanting to murder someone in general, albeit a little less than you want to murder an old man who was on his way out already?

Most theaters are quiet. Some theaters are not. Let's just say that Death at a Funeral (2010) in Watts, CA would be much louder than Death at a Funeral (2007) in Bangor, ME.

False. Every movie in Bangor (or any other rural population center) is punctuated by people saying, "Who is that guy? Is he the other guy's boss or what?" and "Why are they doing that again?" in the tones of people who have spent a lot of time using chainsaws.
