The gammons are just going to keep blaming the EU for all their problems even though we're not in it anymore aren't they?

Billie Eilish is actually good though. Her album was probably the best of last year.

I can't believe I'm saying this and I am fully aware of how lame it sounds in TYOOL 2020 but gently caress, the best album of last year for me was Fear Inoculum by Tool. I can't help it, it just rules.

Reminder that it wasn't the English who literally strip mined Wales for resources and hosed off as soon as the money started to dry up; it was the rich.

Also Welsh Labour are far meltier on average than English Labour, and Wales by and large is a loving breeding ground for fash. It's not just English politicians doing the pandering, & it's not just English dickheads being pandered to.

It loving sucks what the rich & powerful did to this country, and to the North of England and other places, but some of those rich cunts were Welsh and a lot of the people on the receiving end were English. Nationalisn has nothing to do with it.

It's this so much. Once again the problems caused by the rich are blamed on people of different nationalities instead. You bet your rear end English working class have suffered just as much as Welsh or Scottish.

I was oppressed in school by my classmates for not having a west country accent and because I pronounced Bath the 'posh' way. (Correct way)

My girlfriend is American and she still has to file her tax returns every year even though she earns wayyyy under the threshold. From what I've seen of them they're an utter ballache to do.

Noticed the teeny tiny ESTIMATED on my electricity bill last week, submitted a manual reading (from my supposedly smart meter) and they've just refunded me 238 quid because it turns out they've been "estimating" my bill for a whole loving year :woot:

They will do if you don't give readings! What else can they go on?

E: whoops missed the smart meter part, that's dumb (lol) of them

^^^ I think you need to look up what a smart meter is.

Guavanaut posted:

The smart meter should tell them, unless NWObill1833 on YouTube is right and it really is just to spy on your porn through the wires.

Yeah that was my bad for not reading it properly. I should hope I know what a smart meter is since I work for an energy company!

Also I used to work in customer service and you'd be amazed at how many conspiracy nutjobs used to call up about smart meters hacking your brain.

I choose to believe that you know exactly what they do and that's why you weren't surprised they weren't sending readings and they were in fact slowly cataloguing the giant stack of razzles that I assume GDT keeps under the stairs.

To be fair the current crop of smart meters are a mess and I'd probably wait a few years to get one installed so yeah I'm not that surprised.

Currently watching Snackmasters on C4, y'all should watch the second episode to see how Monster Munch is made, interspersed with chefs completely failing to recreate it. Good watch.

Claire from Bon Appetit would def give it a good go
