Christ, I'm in stitches. I thought I was just being a typical brit thinking that was weird.

Also, naming loads of foreign food places to prove your local food isn't bland is kinda stupid. Lots of curries were invented in the UK, for instance, but that isn't what people think about when they complain about "english food" is it?

Wait, they’re giving people who can’t get the box sets something even rarer in in addition to a full refund?

It’s a fuckup, no doubt, but that seems like a generous consolation prize.

I don't think they can play the game with them. But given they got refunds too....

I mean, get a refund and nothing else and you still can't complain.

So my close friends wife works in marketing for Pelaton...

I think she's pretty new, wasn't involved in that campaign and thought it was awful.

Either way I just sent her Reynolds ad. That's amazing.

Edit: "come play my lord" was definitely Evony.

My husband was looking online for a cleaning product for woodworking. And that's how we discovered sawdust-scented soap.

Well. Sawdust is a pretty nice smell, so ok? Not as if Sandalwood hasn't been a fairly well known fragrance for a long time.

Norwegian ice cream shop posts pictures of a minor employee on instagram and tries to defend it as a creative decision.

It does clarify that she's actually 20, not 17.

Countries which are not 3rd world dumpsites recycle 75% of their aluminum cans, and EU is pushing this number towards 100%.

It still uses a load of energy, and is entirely pointless.

And those figures are very likely overstated.

How did they mess it up this time?

They filmed in areas where the Chinese government is currently committing genocide. And thanked the authorities in those areas in the credits. The lead actress has also gone out of her way to praise the Chinese governments handling of Hong Kong.

It's also apparently a poo poo, unnneeded remake.

Obvious bullshit and factual errors aside, I have concerns for the safety of anyone who sees synthwave neckbeard mohawk Ken here and thinks "BADASS" but they were probably gonna get their head dunked in a toilet regardless

fisting by many posted:

American phone numbers weren't really meant for security or identity verification -- assigning a mobile phone number to a different SIM card can be done freely by any level 1 telecom agent, which means if "receiving a message at a given phone number" is securing something important, it's vulnerable to one frontline agent being social engineered (or paid off).

Since this is a problem, you can now tell your telecom companies "please don't give my number to some random person who asked without making super duper sure it's me first", and they might listen to you.

Yo what the gently caress? This seems a bit daft?

Mind you it might be the case everywhere and I'm just Clueless. But yeh this seems daft.
