The problem with UK drivers is that, no matter how well you’ve prepared your car, you’ll get stuck behind some dickhead on bald summer tyres.

Don’t forget the new Tumblr for girls- Tubgirl :D

A lot of the problem with the Zimbabwean fuck up was them taking large commercial farms and breaking them up into farms that were so small that they wouldn’t even generate enough revenue to run the machinery. My guess is that the least disruptive land redistribution scheme would be sharecropping-

Yeah, that was the real surprise for me, lol.

I really can’t tell if you knew you were at crossed purposes or not, lol.

Goatse is where it’s at, it’s still sufficiently underground that it’s not being spammed by ‘influencers’.

If nothing else, figuring out masculinity with no male role models sounds like a good long character arc.

I am bitterly disappointed that the gorilla god isn’t called Harambe.

Your femoral artery isn’t at risk from a slide, it runs down the inside and slightly to the front of your femur. However, my mother used to be a theatre sister and worked on a guy who’d managed to wear his femur down a bit in a slide as it’s very close to the surface on the outside of your thigh.

My bike commuting formula is to wear the jacket over my work shirt and change from bike trousers & shoes to normal trousers & shoes at work. Any tailpack/topbox/backpack that will hold a helmet is big enough for my work clothes. Takes me about 15 mins to get dressed in the morning and I got it down to 6 mins for…

He could’ve just made a youtube video of the speech and monetised it, would’ve probably got >5M views by now.
