If it�s not below freezing, this works well and quickly: pour warm tap water over the windows to melt the frost. Then use the wipers and screen wash - it�s got antifreeze in it.

I'm fine using the scraper on the windscreen, it's waiting for the engine to get hot enough to blow warm enough air to demist the inside. Where I live they have these bright-rear end white LED street lamps and if there's any condensation inside, when they shine through you can see absolutely nothing.

The Question IRL posted:

I started my car a good five minutes before I was going to leave the house to defrost it.
The wife took her car to drop the baby to childcare.

I go out to drive off, only to discover that my car automatically locked itself and thus I was locked out of the car. (I thought the car only auto locked when it was moving. Very frustrating. )

I wait for the wife to come home so I can use her spare key to open my car. Discover that the clicker won't work on a locked car with the engine running.

I then had to look for the keyhole on the car. But there is no visible one.

5 minutes of searching Google I find that with Kia Sportages you can use the car key to pry off a part of the door handle to get access to the key hole and manually unlock the car.

Not a huge issue, but when you are truing to leave the house in the freezing cold, it's very frustrating.

All that tech, you would have thought there would be a 'its freezing today so just switch on and run until engine is hot' button.

This is factually untrue.

They released the Remastered versions of the first two Tony Hawks games.
You know, going back to the old hits, but with slightly less of the licenced music.

This does not count and you know it.

For some reason this makes me deeply uncomfortable even though I have never bought Tescos or anyone else's stuffing before. Like, how many moths were involved here for there to be a recall? How did moths get in to the process at all?

Like, give me a big bag of dried, chilli-salted insects and I'll happily stuff them down like Wotsits.

Same. It's just... moths.... how are moths getting in to the process of mixing up flour and sage and onion powder? Does the process happen outside under really bright fluorescent lights?

Pantry moths will eat anything. Very fond of porridge oats in my (horrid) experience

I'm fortunate enough to have only experienced the ones that occasionally munch holes in your clothes.

The Evergiven was only stuck for 6 days, now a bunch of the biggest shipping companies have all stopped sending freight through there, for a longer period of time, this is going to be even worse in terms of sex arse shortages.

Are you telling me I'm going to have to spend Christmas this year without my sex arse?

You could support your local sex arse producer instead of ordering one from china. It's also better for the environment.

Oh, that's going to be fun, I've got chemo on Tuesday. Hopefully London Overground doesn't include Southeastern or it's an hour and a half bus ride. Or seeing if I can fight my way onto a riverbus I guess.

I'm on Southeastern and they've never been included in TFL overground strikes.

That's how the IRA forced the British back to the negotiating table by bombing Canary Wharf

Also the Bishopsgate bombing. Keep having to remind myself it was literally only 30 years ago that happened.
