Therapy speak coming into normal parlance is great because among sound people it normalises therapy and talking about mental health and is also a great warning light when overused to let you know you池e in a conversation with an insufferable twat

the latter is why i've heard it should actually just be called "influencer speak"

They were planning on selling the chocolate bars that had been purchased as part of a multipack individually.

Even though it says not for individual sale right there on the label.

0.000% of Communism has been built. Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin. All he has managed to do is make himself *sad*. It has, however, made him into a very, very smart boy with something like a university degree in Truth. Instead of building Communism, he now builds a precise model of this grotesque, duplicitous world.
Believe it or not, vulnerable children are being paid by gangs to transport chocolate-covered coconut across district borders.

I'm probably not the best person to give advice but yeah, probably best to give them a ring. I feel like throwing in the towel a lot of days, and I still don't know if I keep making the right or wrong decision, but after a lot of practice, I do think it's one best made with a calm head, not at the worst moment.

Sometimes I wonder about The poo poo i listen too. I see people posting and I wonder if they would have a theme tune.

I think fucktifinos music would be this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=me3CPl_i4C4

goddamtwisto (PBUH) would be THIS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIQpBggqCl8

I think if this thread had a theme tune it would be o9n a downer. Maybe 2pac changes or something like that.

gently caress-it post.

The thread's theme should be The Coup's The Guillotine because it ultimately has an uplifting message of hope & a funky beat.

Meanwhile for every post I make it should be a requirement to listen to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fZ-of7iH7A

I had the same concern (married in October), but I was totally used to it within like 3 days and now I hate taking it off. The trick was to get my brain comfortable that I could always take the ring off as long as I made my finger super straight, so no need to panic.

Thus far it's absolutely fine, required a little adjustment to playing guitar with a ring, but OTOH it's a useful accessory for cracking eggs, so impossible to say if it's good or bad.

(Also, it's a good way to save my ego - when young women look straight through me I tell myself it's because they clocked the ring, not because I'm middle aged and invisible :unsmith: )

Also also, goongratulations!

Hey Rishi, talk to this Remington.

God, he's such a oval office and it's so infuriating that we don't have any decent opposition to him. Anyone halfway decent would hang him up to dry.

Our bank sent us a letter saying they know times are hard for everyone and they've got some great options if we're in a pinch:

- Get a new mortgage deal now, before the rates go up. We're on 2% until September 2024 thankfully, but if things continue as-is we'll be likely at 8% then 🙃 4x interest payments, hooray.

- Move to interest-only for 6 months. So..."only" pay interest for six months (that if we had a bad deal, would be basically the same as what we currently pay), without making a dent in the total.

I really wish I wasn't so busy and/or spineless, I'd love to lead a "Don't pay your mortgage" movement. Will the banks really send the police round to every mortgage-holders home?

If the banks are offering to lock you in at the current rates, that's probably a solid indicator that they're projecting the rates to drop considerably next year

History Comes Inside!

I paid a grand to lock in for 10 years at 2% like 2 months before everything absolutely went to poo poo, and at the time I felt like I was basically just paying to save myself the hassle of sorting the mortgage out again in a couple of years but really it痴 been the best 」1000 I致e ever pissed away on effectively nothing, ever

Dude who comes in from the right is pulling moves straight out of Disco Elysium

Jacked-up footwork plus some Ubi folk dancing

Seen so many of these guys in nightclubs in the late 90/early 00s. He's trying to imitate a mid-90s dance style that was popularised by people like Leeroy Thornhill and Keith Flint from The Prodigy, and lesser known rave acts like QFX in Scotland, where it's all about very rapid on-the-spot footwork. But if you have no rhythm or coordination and are trying to bust a move after 8 pints of Stella it ends up like that.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a65NMdkB5uY

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zn8UpBxejVc

Me and a friend where obsessed with this dance style and got so good at it that during a Prodigy gig in Belfast around 1994/5 they pulled us up on stage and we got to dance alongside them and hang out backstage after the show. They were sound as gently caress, really chill guys. My friend was really into DJing and sampling and Liam Howlett just went into a huge music nerd chat with him.

Keith Flint was the only cool Keith.

edit: Except for Kool Keith sampled on "Smack My Bitch Up"
