He's a Devon Rex. They aren't usually so curly, but he's a special boy. He's also tiny because he was the runt of the litter. Penny is also a devon rex but she doesn't have the fur mutation, just the big ears and little triangle face. Bonus baby Rollo

Realised I haven't been keeping up with my personal development as a weird uncle who never sees his nephews outside xmas. Decided my new thing is to say Panettone with the same rhythm and stress as Penelope. Yep gonna get some mileage out of that one this year.

Just realised, completely by chance, that Monday marks exactly 20 years regd here. I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... Backpanther on fire off the shoulder of ABunchOfNumbers... I watched p-p-p-p-powerbooks glitter in the dark near the Pele's Gape. All those moments will be lost in time, like poop in socks... What I'm saying is where's my loving pension, I'm a veteran of the Habbo Insurgency for god's sake.

I always thought the five guys fries model was pretty smart. Take your highest margin side and give people so much that they'll drop 15 bucks on an extra patty and thickshake because it's "such good value". They also raised the burger game in the UK and Europe by a whole magnitude and I appreciate that as a I need some goon help/advice. I made a holiday friend (with my wife's blessing). It rained this morning and he came over to my balcony to hang out and I gave him a drink and some breakfast. Turns out he had been in a fight last night and had a couple of fresh scratches on his face so I gave his cuts a little gentle clean and treatment. We're currently at a stage where I am allowed to touch his butt. I've tentatively put my hands under him and I think mutual cuddles might be on the cards. Here's the problem though, he won't tell me his name.  Best I can figure is maybe Sprocket (because he squeaks like a rusty bike chain). Or Loaf, because he makes a perfect Loaf at our door an politely squeaks when he wants something). ReelBigLizard fucked around with this message at 12:43 on Mar 6, 2023 |

everyone posted:CAT BALLS This was a joy to turn my phone on for and I can't believe I have two megathread titles live at the same time after never having even one. I started posting here again when the stupid bird app turned out to be more like a milkshake duck app, and I'm so glad I did. fartknocker posted:I started having a panic attack on the way to work for reasons I can’t loving explain (Triggers be crazy, y’all) and the first hour of bullshit once I got to my desk hasn’t helped…  Amazing.

He seems to have an ok life here eating lizards like chicken tenders, but he's also clearly too wild and old to be properly brought in now. I just wish they had a neuter-release program here.

My similarly ADHD best friend and partner in mischief is house sitting for us and today he's apparently going hyperfocus buck wild on the 3D printer. He's built some mechanical eyes to build into a mask that is going to look people in the eyes in the psy trance tent of our local music festival he volunteers at this summer.

Loaf Status: Girlfriend acquired Balls Status: Drained but still swangin' She seems good for him - a little tortie girl. She knew all the moves. Slipped into the front garden and when she knew he was watching just pissed on the hibiscus bush right there and then. I won't say any more but they didn't waste any time so we'll probably hear about it in the morning.

More Bequia cats? In OUR 5kpt? It's more likely than you think. This is Beans  She was already friendly but then I "accidentally dropped" a slightly chewy bit of my lobster, soaked in butter. She went from tentative scritches through every stage of cat-human acceptance, from strokes to chin rubs, back massage, butt rubs, lap sitting, rolling over, full belly rubs, bean massage and finally gentle nibbles and playful bunny kicks. All in roughly 15 minutes.  I saw Loaf one last time this morning (we're off on the first of many flights home this afternoon). He had his morning saucer of water with a little milk and then saw another young thing off across the gardens and off he went, balls swinging free in the balmy morning air.

StrixNebulosa posted:yessss Look up The Book of Ebenezer Le Page by G B Edwards. It's a quite famous life-story/provincial saga about a man living his entire life on a small island (where I also happen to be from), through the second world war, German occupation and beyond. It's written in the local vernacular/accent of the time and the audiobook is read by the late great Roy Dotrice in the correct accent because he was also born on the island. If it doesn't make you weep I'll eat my hat.

My sister in law helps put together a local Cheese Quiz every year that has kind of become a big thing. It's like a regular pub/bar quiz/trivia (however you say it where you are), but it's themed around cheese, includes an actual cheese tasting round and a ticket raffle where you can win cheese and meats from local businesses. The music round is all cheesy music, you get the idea. Anyway it started as dumb fun but it's actually become quite competitive in the last couple of years and tonight we won. Our team name was Bribe-a-brie & Racletteering (My wife and I run a financial compliance and training consultancy.) Edit for additional context: we also smoked a weed before we went ReelBigLizard fucked around with this message at 00:39 on Mar 16, 2023 |

Computer viking posted:The Goods and Services Tax? Indeed. We are being told by certain political entities locally that there is no money and we must introduce a GST, but the prices here are already high because we import everything from the UK who import everything from somewhere else. It will really gently caress over the low earners while the wealthy won't even notice. Any attempt to discuss say, an empty properties tax or inheritance tax or corporation tax* hits a brick wall historically but recently there have been mass rallies in favour of proper tax reform. *(or any taxes that meaningfully affect the local rich pricks)

  Made it to West Dean from the ferry in 1hr 58min, which is pretty good going for 37km on mostly rural greenlanes. My lower back and kidneys would like a word with West Sussex highway maintenance though. Computer viking posted:Also, where do you live again where you import from the UK? Channel Islands? Man? Orkneys? Guernsey, Channel Islands. Successive governments have taken a friendly, safe, laid back place to be an alcoholic and turned it into a sort of small minded little England where the wealthy can sit around in huge underused houses ordering poo poo off Amazon waiting to die so they can skip UK inheritance tax. Goods and services, with the additional costs of import, are typically the same price or more than the UK, despite there being no sales tax. A GST will absolutely crush low income housing and chase more young people away. Eventually it will just be a giant retirement home like Alderney unless we fight them tooth and nail.

I never saw an English muffin until I went to the USA as a kid. I don't think they existed in the UK before the 2000s. E: Wikipedia says they are English after all but I guess it's one of those things that we forgot about while everyone took them to the new world. E2: I thought Top Gun 2: Top Harder was fine. Not a successful late sequel like Fury Road but it's not a crystal skull either. ReelBigLizard fucked around with this message at 17:48 on Mar 19, 2023 |
