this is at least the third time Julie Bindel has written essentially this article about Snoop
"I own no fewer than four of his CDs" made me lol but general sentiment seems fine to me

the revelation that she watches re-runs of Carry On films was also a bit o_O. The broader point she is making is fair enough, granted.

'I start to feel it in my knees' – working for hours while standing proves a tall order
With new research suggesting workers be on their feet for half of their working day, Esther Addley set out to meet the target. But four hours of standing is no easy task
Standing to work is not a new thing: Leonardo da Vinci, Ben Franklin, Winston Churchill and Vladimir Nabokov are all said to have done it. Philip Roth wrote his novels on his feet, while James Murdoch, now chief operating officer of 21st Century Fox, is a self-confessed “big believer” in standing while you work.

I mean, I realise this means people standing in an office, but at no point does it even seem to realise shopworkers, waiting staff, bar staff, police, I mean, how many people stand all day at work? Dunno how you could write that and not think about just working in a shop even in your teens or whatever.

Karl Marx famously did this too but only because he was plagued with boils on his arse, so that probably doesn't count.

Liveblogging the relaunch episode of TFI Friday.

I'm being forced to watch it and tbf it's deserves to be liveblogged, though not in the way I imagine the Guardian's doing it.

I'm watching it too a bit. I can't believe Chris Evans decided that's what he'd wear for the show.

Went to guardian website using my phone. Hit the search button at the top. But it uses some fancy web 2.0 thing instead of a proper text form. And my phone doesn't bring up the keyboard so I can't type anything.
Hit 'request desktop site', get exactly the same page.
I try scrolling down to the bottom to see if there's an option there, but it loads me content as I scroll. It's also very hard to scroll without touching something that wants to open a new page.
Progress...

Had a look at it. When you click on the search button it shows a proper text form for me. How old is your phone?

Nexus 4, KitKat, Firefox is up to date.
I tried it again and sometimes I get redirected to a custom google page, but half the time I just get a pseudo text box pop up, no cursor, no keyboard.
― koogs, Sunday, 21 June 2015 13:41 (nine years ago) link
Seems random. Might be google not responding in a timely fashion. (That redirected search page has a google domain but does a site search against guardian.computer)

YAY! WOOWOO! As people seem to say on that other achingly boring bore-platform Facebook. Thank you Mr Binns for being the Pathfinder and dropping the flares onto the target. (Historical reference-Hipsters please Google-but steel yourself my dears, it concerns a time when extreme violence to ethnic groupings whom we -the 'British' dear-were 'fighting'-and-steel yourselves again-the only men who wore beards were real men who risked their lives in Corvettes and Destroyers and other vessels - in the constant fear of dying in the freezing waters of a cruel sea). I have absolutely no idea what a 'latte' is, and cannot work out why anyone would want to name a cup of coffee a 'frappe'. Doesn't that mean 'hit' in French? Oh pur-leese. When asked how I would like my coffee I reply 'Strong and Black like me' which confuses the hell out of most people as I'm average build and white. But I love to see the confusion and supressed panic on the faces of people who are desperate to fall into line and conform with the herd mentality that hurries people into the sheep-pen of political-correctness that stunts our country.WOOW-WOOW! YAY!

also, kinda lol but mostly sad comment from an Australian clearly struggling with British, and particularly CiF mores:
I am surprised by the appalling negativity of many people here about the tastes and interests of others - just because you don't care or can't be bothered developing an interest in something, why put hate on others who do? People are passionate about many things in life - doesn't that make the world a better place? People don't have to be the same as you.
