My oven can’t be left on. You always have to dial in a duration for how long it should be on, along with mode and temperature. Timer runs out, it turns off. It’s a good safety feature.,
Unfortunately being used to that, every time I’ve used someone else’s oven, I’ve forgotten to turn it off.
An inland urban seagull fully robbed a Greggs Chicken Bake directly out of my hands in the middle of town last year, so I applaud this man’s speed and “killer instinct”.
It landed on my shoulder, flapped it’s wings at my head to put me in the “what in the f–king f–k?!?” posture, then before I’d worked out what was going on, he’d leant forward and snatched the whole thing from my hand, before flying off, then dropping it 50 metres ahead, where him and five of his mates tucked in. I get the impression it’s a tried and tested manoeuvre.
Of course, still calls himself a seagull, but never caught a fish or seen the sea in his life, the podgy urban skybastard.
My sister lost a pasty to one once.
A seagull basically landed on her back, she dropped the food in surprise, and the bird’s mate swooped in to eat it on the ground.
A friend lost a pasty to one last year in St Ives. Having lived in St Ives for over 40 years, and being warned by the bakery to guard his pasty closely, and holding it close to his chest as he walked out of the shop. It just swooped right in, grabbed it, and flew off with it. Kinda got to admire the seagull that’s able to steal a pasty from a dude with extensive experience protecting his lunch from seagulls.
I did some Google sleuthing - the Dinklage post might be a year old, the Davis one is a few years old but I can’t find an original one, so I suspect neither did the original.
It may be a reference to a pattern I noticed when I was still dating. I noticed that it was usually (greater than 50%) the single moms that were the most daring, willing to explore, kinky, etc cetera, in the bedroom. It might have been because being a single parent (speaking as a formerly single father) doesn’t afford a lot of spare time and on top of that, there are a lot of people not willing to date anyone with a child. So sometimes you are just very excited to have someone interested in you and are willing to go the distance even if it might not be the cat’s meow.
Single moms are my bread and butter. They’re super into it, they have no time for bullshit, they just wanna go. If you’re going for the right single moms you won’t ever even meet the kids.
Married moms are even better. Last three gals I’ve ‘dated’ have been married. As a single father with full custody I get the time to focus on my kids, never have to worry about the whole meeting the kids conversation, and an hour or two a few times a week, usually during work (I work from home), is the perfect amount of time to spend with someone especially when none of it needs to be about stupid shit, they got some loser cuc at home to bitch at.
If we factor in all of the Tory prime ministers since 2010, it’s like they’ve each taken £20 each from our wallets (thanks to austerity, Brexit, generalised incompetence, and outright insanity), and now Sunak thinks we should be grateful because after losing £100, we’re getting £5 back. And you just know he’s going to get really tetchy when no one appreciates the gesture.
I know Starmer is a bit of an underwhelming proposition BUT if you don’t punish the Conservatives for what they’ve done you’re telling them that the Liz Truss premiership was just business as usual and an entirely sane way to run the economy.
Agreed! There’s a Tory MP that needs to be removed from my constituency, and I’ll cast my vote to whoever is best placed to make that happen. I’m in a historically Lib Dem area, whose vote share collapsed in 2015, and it’s unclear whether they or Labour will be the best option come election time. I would rather vote Lib Dem, but if I’ve got to vote Labour in order to punish the Tory, then so be it.
