They're great, we used to go to the beach every year when I was a kid, and occasionally going out at night and seeing a whole horde of them come on shore was really cool. I thought I'd be scared of them, but they're just a bunch of gentle crawly guys.

Gentle crawly guys that eat dead sailors!*

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

And you know where the souls of dead sailors go, right? They inhabit the bodies of seagulls. You heard it here.

That's why you don't ever want to leave your ship with out crew while seagulls are about, they can and will steal it and so once again they can go sailing the seas.

Also it's just so much easier to catch fish when you a have your own ship with a bunch of fish nets. Those gulls that stole one of those massive fishing trawler that one time got reallll fat.

Is 100% Canadian tomatoes a selling point?

When I think of ideal places to grow tomatoes, I don’t think of Canada.

EDIT: This is where someone rolls in with some link to tomatofarmersofcanada.org or something that shows that actually, Canada is the #2 producer of tomatoes and has celebrated, award-winning varietals.

It's nice to eat locally produced food, so they use that as a selling point

DO NOT confuse swans with seagulls, if you kill a swan a mystical curse will be placed on your vessel, and it will meet a tragic fate and sink to Davy Jones' locker.

Also if you just accidently just killed Zeus at least some of the Greek pantheon will probably also be pretty mad at you.

Seagulls are bastards! I had a seagull try multiple times to steal a slice of pizza from my hands.

Although to be fair, this was in Frankston, so the gull was probably on heroin

Committed to burn twice as long and half as bright

I've worked in such an environment before. I've posted about it here, previously, but it was a job where we had an hour removed from our pay per day for "lunch" but were repeatedly instructed that we were not actually allowed to take time away from work for lunch. Mandatory overtime with threats of getting fired if we didn't obey but no pay for that time. That sort of place. My boss was actually blindsided and surprised when I finally told him I was getting the hell out of there.

Judging about by the length of each complaint, the people complaining in 2022 are the laziest complainers, as all others could be bothered to use at least six words to complain but in 2022 they could only be bothered with five.

No one want's to complain lengthy anymore!!!

The complainer with the best work ethic was 2014 with a 34 word complaint. How lazy complainers have got in the last eight years. what ever happened to work ethic. :(
