"Everyone's got to have a hobby. Some people collect stamps or continental landmasses. Me, I can identify every bone in the human body by the sound of it breaking." - Ulysses Sweet, Maniac for Hire
Every Wednesday I take my daughter to scouts. After scouts we take an unnecessarily long way home, playing music we like at each other and chatting. It's a highlight of my week too.
Alternatively, over-report. Spelling mistake on an email from a colleague? Seems phishy to me. Email from a colleague with an attachment? Phishy! Unsolicited email from a client? Phishy! Email from 'social committee' sent to everyone in the team? Phishy!!!
Hapless Cork lad Conor is released from prison only to land himself in a whole load more trouble. Plus: Sue Perkins goes in search of hidden Thailand. Here’s what to watch this evening...
Glamorising crime or the degenerate behaviour of the underclasses isn’t funny or clever either. It’s fucking sad that society has made huge sections see crime as a viable option.
Indeed! Porridge and Only Fools And Horses were wildly irresponsible programmes and did irreparable harm to society.
I, too, am a human American from one of the 49 states which are united and in America. I am from the good state. All other states are weak and feeble compared to the state from which I come. This makes me a superior human. Obey my justified commands.
At school in Scotland, one art teacher would send the kids to see the other art teacher to ask if they had any tartan paint left. Alternatively, he would send them to go and ask for a long stand.
Water detective Dr Leon Barron studies London’s wastewater, analysing it in all its chemical, narcotic, polluted glory, before and after treatment. Amazingly, he still drinks the stuff from the tap...
Also, Bethesda cities have hundreds of lootable objects, something most other game engines couldn't handle. As sushibowl says it's different tradeoffs.

Hands down Claes Bang as 'the prick' from the show Bad Sisters. I'm pretty sure I'll have a visceral dislike of any character I see him play in the future.
Musk also told staff that he would ask for the resignation of any executive "who retains more than three people who don't obviously pass the excellent, necessary and trustworthy test."
Pssst. Elon. You're not any of those three things.
There may be nothing to indicate who the sender is, whereas there is always something to indicate who the recipient is. So they put a charge on the recipient if they wish to receive the letter. I don't believe you have to pay the fine if you don't want the letter.

Of course when you have an outdoor wedding you always run the risk of nature crashing the party, like when a deer decided to crash a wedding and take a nibble out of the bride’s bouquet, or this grizzly bear that brutally mauled a moose in the background of a wedding at Glacier National Park....

I mean, Nelson Hah-hah, but I can't help but wonder how a guy manages to be quite successful and then toss it all away like he has. Is it a lack of comprehension? Does he get so shit-faced he can't help blurting out some twattery on Shitter? Or does he just lack any kind of filter and sense of self-preservation?

Italians, look away now, because guanciale is hard to get round these parts. Besides, I bet your nonna used pancetta at least once in her lifetime and you didnt't even notice....
Give it a go! The only hard part is when you add the egg/cheese mixture to the pasta and you can try evasive_chimpanzee'stempering approach to make it less likely to go wrong.
