Junior G-man posted:Big tweet thread on the 'new' BoJo border proposals: It's already been rejected long ago, it was brought up before and Ireland laughed at it. I love the idea of having a 310 x 15 = 4650 mile squared area that is a custom quantum zone. (310 is the length of irish border).

WhatEvil posted:Lots of bedrooms in modern housing are too small, or the rest of the house is otherwise unsuitable to have lodgers in. I owned a 2-bed house before I left the UK and the 2nd bedroom was just big enough to get a standard double bed in, a small side table and a wardrobe, and after that you had barely any floor space left. Then apart from the master bedroom (which still didn't have that much space left after a bed and a dresser), the hall and the bathroom it only had one other actual room which was the open-plan kitchen and lounge. Yeah same. In a '2 bedroom' apartment in Cork City. But its really a 1 bedroom as the one toilet, and both beds are within 6 foot from each other. And flimsy walls. Maybe ideal for a couple and 1 kid, but not for two strangers.

Bobstar posted:When my company bought another company, one of the first things the CEO did was demand all the security cameras pointing at the employees were taken down, which was nice. I think they come as close as possible to fulfilling the whole "think of this company as one big family" thing (which is not very close because it's bollocks, but it could be much worse). My company was like this at the start. Totally American in style, if you have 2 seconds extra on your piss break VERBAL WARNING. 1% out of your planned schedule, WRITTEN WARNING. Do this a few times, and its PIP TIME! And if you get on a PIP, you were a dead man walking unless you turned into the perfect drone. Then when the upper management started mass redundancies in high profit years, telling us to save money by reducing normal needed stuff, and then giving themselves million $ bonuses, our local (lower) management suddenly didn't give two fucks what we did. They knew that it wasn't worth burning us out for the the shitheads at the top, or most likely themselves.

My family inherited 3 houses which lay in a row, over a hundreds years worth of family history in them all. We sold them a few years ago so my mum could a bungalow for her old age, these houses were 4 stories and so she couldn't get up the stairs half the time. Sold for £125k for all three as this is wasteland Northern Ireland and no one wants to live in sheep country. If they were I am renting now in cork city, they would be just hitting a million.

Sanitary Naptime posted:Part of me thinks the brexit party really doesn’t give a gently caress about NI tbh, but this will still piss them off enough to make a difference I hope The UK didn't give a gently caress about NI until they were needed for the coalition. And after that is dissolved NI will be back to 'Those Crazy Religious Fucks To Be Ignored (except when they have bombed our part)' Its pretty obvious the Brexit Party only gives a gently caress about the English. After Brexit, the purging of the Scots will begin from the South.

Its rare to see it around here, and there was two guys ahead of me buying a few bottles each. One said 'We'll be back for the rest' as they went out.

Pochoclo posted:Oh lol. I lack that cultural context. What I described is very much a working class thing back home. We wouldn't call it "aperitivo" either, it'd be "vermú" and the whole thing would be a "picada" for which I'm struggling to find an English term for. Hors d'oeuvre? Not english, but I think this is the term for finger food snacks.

If its a trifle that has more then 3 fruits in it, guillotine. Or hand made sponge cake. Proper working class trifle is made from white bread and 2 fruit max (tin of fruit cocktail allowed).
