They should be forced to split Bell-style into ENN, CNN, MNN, and PNN so you know which time zone they're working in.

Speaking of coding chat, idk about now but I'm fairly sure that Indiana has it's own time zone that is just a middle finger with gently caress you scrawled underneath specifically for anyone who has to calculate dates. e: lol yeah, bad enough for it's own wiki article Guavanaut fucked around with this message at 20:52 on Apr 14, 2024 |

I remember doing something back in , what , 2009? On some london hack who had started a “save the boozer” campaign. I met her and she took me around some of these threatened “boozers” that , to a man, all reeked of stale lager, fags, piss and regret, had some miserable poo poo of a landlord and 3 sad old bastards nursing a pint of mild. I genuinely left her thinking “let em loving go”

There are some pubs that are genuinely cornerstones of the community, the Irish pub that put on trade union events, let us host anarchist meetings in the back room, and helped people fill in benefits paperwork comes to mind, and the little local one made by a British Gas engineer who quit because the new management treated people like cunts and instead teamed up with a chem eng to solder together a whole brewery and make beer is cool too. There are some that do genuinely have that level of attachment to people who have little else and a need for community, but yeah they're worth supporting for different reasons than 'every chain pub' or 'pretend hipster gin palace'.

My local is also really good but I've been struggling to go recently because every time I do there's another funeral and the place is packed out. I am going to do absolutely no reflection on what this implies.

Pubs should be saved imo. Even people who smell like old cigarettes need community god drat it

That Blur vid is amazing, and it shows a level of entitlement and arrogance that can only come from a oval office, imo. A musician's job is to perform, and the audience's job is to do whatever the gently caress they want. If the audience doesn't perform on cue, you don't have a tantrum on stage about it... lol

Blur at Wembley last year was one of the best stadium gigs I've ever been to, the crowd was ridiculously into it and it was great fun. I can't imagine how dead the crowd must have been to have gotten that reaction.

Pubs are dying because young people don't go to them because drinking in a pub is a lot more expensive than it used to be, young people are - relatively - poorer then they used to be in terms of salary, and the rental market is a tax that disproportionately targets the young so they're less likely to stay in the same place long enough to get attached to a 'local' (if they can afford to go to the pub regularly with their meagre take-home pay). So yeah, campaigns run by middle-class hacks and crackheads like 50p Lee are virtue-signalling in the purest way possible.

At least in Glasgow there's a local/central dynamic for pubs for young people. If you go to a pub in town on a Friday or Saturday night in Glasgow you'll find them packed to the gills with working age adults from 18-60. Some skew younger, some older, but there' plenty of people under 30 in them. The places that are dying are locals, because if your friends are scattered all over Glasgow because you have to take what you can get in terms of a rental, why the hell are you going to meet up in the pub that happens to be closer to one or two of you while being a trek across the city to reach for everyone else. if it's not an old man pub, it's a wetherspoons, purpose built to be somewhere you can meet your gran in for lunch and otherwise devoid of any culture or charm. I think the deepest irony is that the thing that could actually save these places is the 15 minute city. If you live in walking distance of your work, your local is where you'll go for drinks. It's a place you could stop in at on your walk home. But no, they want us driving to offices, and driving home, and what reason is there to stop at the pub when you need to drive home? It's not like you can stop in for a drink.

Haven't seen a Lee show on GBeebies, but if its a pub set, do they have a piano and do they ever have a sing song? 50p Lee: ....and that's why they should be sent back to where they came from.
