Greggs is definitely poo poo. I had a sausage and egg roll there the other day for breakfast and it was like I was transported back to being a poor freshman who buys the cheapest ingredients I can find and cooks them really badly. The egg turned to dust in my mouth. Speaking of supermarkets from last thread, I used to use Tesco since they were the closest but since I've moved the only one around is Sainsbury's, and while it's not that great they do at least have the proper rooster sriracha instead of that weird goose poo poo that Tesco has.

bump_fn posted:i’m gonna go to wales for a few days what are some welsh delicacies that aren’t wet regret Welshcakes are great! Also a good quality Welsh Rarebit is amazing, don't listen to anyone who says it's just cheese on toast. Extra points if it comes with ham and an egg on top.

Guavanaut posted:I was going to say Welsh Rarebit, especially if it's done traditionally where the cheese is melted separately and ladled over the top. Anything else is just a grilled cheese fight me. Yeah it's absolutely more like a cheese sauce with spices and beer in rather than just melting slices of cheese on top, it rules.

Failed Imagineer posted:Spoken like someone who's never worked (wanked) from home. A few years ago at work someone posted on our #tech slack channel that he was working from home. A couple of hours later he posts another message, all it said was "pornhub.com". It was deleted like a minute later but a few of us saw it and just looked on in horror. It was glorious.

Any people here potentially interested in starting the gym/weights should definitely go over to the general thread in YLLS which is super super helpful and knowledgeable. It was the main thing that helped me start being a fitness-haver a few years ago.

thespaceinvader posted:Consider that a 22 year old man may very well have never needed a loving black jacket in his entire adult life, abd that this is more than likely the first death he's dealt with as an adult, and society has more than likely not even CLOSE to equipped him with the emotional health and tools to deal with it properly, and maybe try some empathy whilst you're at it? This is a very good post. If I was in his position I would probably have done the same at his age except maaaybe not asked for help so last minute, but that's also part of being emotionally unable to deal with it. At 22 I couldn't even afford a black jacket/suit.

Jaeluni Asjil posted:When my dad died he had said 'no black' - he wanted joyful colours. We did put that in the notice of the funeral but 95% of people still turned up in black. I wore red. When my Gran died it was all joyful colours too, except amazingly pretty much everyone followed it. My Dad wore the loudest jacket I've ever seen and it was a really nice day. Sad obviously but I think the no black rule really helped.

thespaceinvader posted:My big issue with going to proper lifting (other than the barrier to entry of it needing to be moved to and from, but that's my own problem, rather than a general one) is learning proper technique. Getting it wrong can gently caress you up, and getting it right takes some training, surely? The starting strength book goes in depth with all the lifts and their motions, focusing on proper form. I don't do SS as a program but the book was really useful to begin with. That, along with youtube videos, and then the Form Check thread in YLLS and it's hard to go wrong. Just remember to start out light and only go up in weights if you can keep the proper form.

They're part of Ireland's slow cultural war, a friendly snack-based imperialism where everyone comes around to the glory of Cheese and Onion Tayto's (in the correctly coloured red bag.) But, of course, there's no disagreement on the absolute fact they're called crisps. taytos are pro-tier crisps but lol at thinking RED is the colour for cheese and onion
