Dysgenesis posted:I've never had anything reeses either. I just think they are not very popular because brits think American chocolate is poo poo. The chocolate is arse, yes. Reeses stuff is available in the Sainsbury's across the road, but I live in London so I might just be some southern bullshit. Only like, peanut butter cups, and something called a Nutrageous, which is basically a Topic bar that sat in the glove compartment of a Transit van for a year.

Butterfly Valley posted:One of my closest friends died today of monkeypox. I spent every summer of the last 14 years of my life with him in Turkey, chasing good times and connecting with so many people. I had to call his ex-girlfriends and friends to tell them. The fact that so many people are grieving him is testament to a short life incredibly well lived and loved. poo poo sucks. Jesus, sorry. Did he have any other health issues, or was he unbelievably unlucky?

In a fit of madness some thirteen years ago, I married an American, and whilst they are definitely capable of culinary abominations, occasionally they produce a banger: grilled cheese sandwiches are superior to toasties in every way. I will, however, concede that a toastie machine is vital if you want beans in.

Bobby Deluxe posted:if you want beans in what If you've never had a baked bean toastie, brother, you're missing out. (clarifications: a toastie is made in a sandwich press that seals the edges of the bread together to contain the nuclear hot filling. a grilled cheese sandwich is a cheese sandwich fried in butter. American cheese is good for the things it's good for, but is not what any civilised country recognises as cheese.)

big scary monsters posted:Going to make jacket potatoes tonight, what are everyone's favourite toppings? The classic cheese and beans, the dangerously exotic chili con carne, the seaman's choice with tuna mayo? My mum always did grated cheddar with chopped ripe tomatoes and a ton of black pepper, very tasty. Crumbling really crispy bacon or those crunchy onions on top is good too.

Solefald posted:Went to east London today and it was nice. Did some axe throwing and then played boardgames and ate a burger but because it was Sunday they didn't have wedges or fries to go with the burger and instead just served you roast potatoes with a jug of gravy, phwoar. We can do some things right here. I hope you wrapped up, it was loving freezing on Vicky Park this morning.

What tube lines are you all taking where you can even hear a conversation at normal volume? I don't like shouting to be heard by people I actually like, let alone some random stranger. A random stranger, incidentally, who's exponentially more likely to be 'Stuart, who forgot his medication for the last three days' than an apple-cheeked granny who wants to know you're eating properly.

I must have missed a lot of advances in Monster Munch technology since I last had a packet, which is probably around the year 'The Last Starfighter' was in the cinema. I only remember sweating meaty crotch flavour and mouth-raping acid flavour. Did they add other exciting flavours banned outside the UK under the Hague Convention? (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Tai posted:A huge problem with the NHS is the GP system. Any GP outside of working in a hospital is priviately run in a business sense but funded by public money. They get a set salary and then the practice is given money and set targets they must hit for next years money. Once they hit those targets then they don't give a gently caress and palm off the work and ''refer'' you hospitals. Hospital staff will openly slag off GP's with even the slightest of a nudges from someone. It's funny as gently caress watching their reaction. I obviate this system by paying a pound a day, since every loving thing on the planet is a subscription these days anyway. If my circumstances were reduced, I'd certainly quit my netflix and amazon subscriptions before my gp service.

Sir Sidney Poitier posted:The only downside was that when they get you to theatre prep and go through the checks like asking what you're having done, they did this AFTER giving me the midazolam. It was challenging to pronounce some stuff "did he say splenectomy or penectomy? gently caress it, do both to be on the safe side"
