Disgusting savages; list them ALL itt

that seems random

deems is making a funny joke and is hurt that you* don't get it

*also i

sorry, too busy reading about the 25p coin and the £5 coin which has the same name, size and shape.

No wonder the supermarkets added a slot to the self serve coin bucket. Used to love throwing the coppers in on occasion.

Still do when I feel I've got a point to prove

Obligatory "legal tender only applies to debts and is irrelevant to supermarkets" post

fyi im not making a funny joke

ive done tesco cashier time and it was either 18 individual coins or anything greater than 88c you didnt have to accept

but it always had the ring of idk freemenesque bullshit, always pushed in whispers by the established tillsitters never by anyone in authority

we shall never know i spose

these kinds of posts always intrigue me even though they don't make any sense

(to me)

lol is 'these kinds' a ref to just...me posting them or is there somethin else goin on?

Your posts definitely come up and also others. I mean it in admiration

It’s amazing to me that we speak the same language but I often find your posts so confounding. I like it just to be clear

last sentence has two, interpretations

Should’ve been a comma, sorry, i’m on a phone

takin no offense at all

you wanna hear me talk im a lot worse

fkn yeats over here

In order to comply with the very strict rules governing an actual legal tender transaction it is necessary, for example, to offer the exact amount due because no change can be demanded.

Well that seems a bit odd.

the people that do almost exclusively black people, while not being black, are total weirdos with issues, though

People who insist Die Hard is a Christmas movie or expend any energy defending this idea

i mean... it very transparently is one, but anyone delivering this like it's some kind of brilliant/hilarious listicle insight does indeed need to fuck off

I don't consider it one simply because it takes place at Christmas.

But yes, otm.

I suggest caring whether it's a Christmas movie either way is closer to actual savagery.

You can probably guess on which side of the Die Hard debate I fall.

Which reminds me: people who give a shit whether or no one finishes a sentence with a preposition.

Also people who harp on "spelling and grammar" mistakes that are clearly just auto-corrects or typos

Which reminds me: people who give a shit whether or no one finishes a sentence with a preposition.

I don’t get the revere for die hard at all

people travelling from street level to deep bore london underground lines, who run around the side of the lift, where people get off, rather than getting on, where everyone else gets on, so they can get on first, rather than queuing.

Sounds eminently sensible to me.

the person at this birthday party who just had a great big whinge about same sex couples holding hands in public

did this person get called out for it?

and did they call it a christmas movie?

I called her out immediately, almost outed myself I was so angry. she ended up apologising.

glad to hear, though I'm sorry you had to experience that.

thanks. clearly she has no idea about me because she assumed everyone in the room was straight, and tbh that’s one of the things that really gets to me. I’ve come a long way this year (long story) and comments like that just remind me how insidious prejudice can be.

so yeah, zero tolerance for shit like that now. no free passes, ever.

all people holding hands are kinda gross unless it’s for the safety of kiddos. “Don”t wanna hold your hand” is also the best gothic archies song.

I love seeing people holding hands. When I was lonely iving in Lausanne, I used to love sitting by the lake, seeing the Arab men walking, holding hands.

I hold hands all the time with my spouse and my mom and some of my older friends who have trouble walking. xpost I was kind of surprised when I saw a lot of younger boys/men holding hands in India but it's nice.

hand-holding is a comforting thing for me.

I am as stupidly repressed as anyone else on this godforsaken island but at least I can still hold my wife's hand in the street sometimes

If my wife and I hold hands, well, one of us is going to have to look at the phone left-handed (and it probably won't be her.)

Adult PDAs are super meh but parent / child hand holding at any age is all time awesome

Jesus christ

I mean, dude led an insurrection, but it was ancient Rome.

the old married couples seem to do it all the time here when walking down the street, frankly it's grounds for class warfare imo
