Happened in the UK last year. I worked on an IT Service Desk where we had like 50 phones being rebuilt. I was in the building on my own on a weekend. I thought it was Armageddon.

I think the main reason it helps people reduce stress is they have to leave a situation to go outside or to another room in order to smoke and they’re taking a deep breath. I found the feeling of breathing in the smoke (throat hit I believe it’s called) and then breathing it out and seeing the smoke cloud very satisfying. Similar to chewing gum I suppose. Also, I rolled my own filter-less cigs so I had the added element of rolling it and picking out strands of tobacco hanging out of the end whilst smoking as a kind of fidget action. I prefer vaping now and don’t think I’d go back to smoking cigarettes regularly but I have started smoking a cigar with a beer some weekends just in the last few months. As some have stated the actual feeling from the nicotine is similar to caffeine but more short lived.

I think this would be the way to go. The infrastructure with gas stations or petrol stations as we call them here in the UK.

Happy life day, ya filthy wookie

That’s basically weather related Stockholm syndrome. Cold is the state you’re used to

We were all thinking it. But you, you beautiful maniac, actually said it 👏👏👏 👏

I have a Facebook account as the organisers of the park run I do only make announcements through their Facebook page. I don’t use it for anything else.

Other than that I use WhatsApp as pretty much everyone in my country uses it to communicate exclusively rather than SMS or regular phone calls due to a very savy scam by service providers. Most of them stopped WhatsApp counting towards data usage on their contracts for a few years and heavily advertised that fact. Then they stopped doing that quietly and now heavily advertise that their contracts have unlimited text messages and phone calls. People had got used to using the WhatsApp features like group chats and video calls so still use it. Most assume it still doesn’t affect their data usage or that unlimited texts and phone calls applies to WhatsApp as well which means people are burning through their mobile data faster due to always having it turned on just so they can receive messages. I gave up trying to convince my family of those facts long ago.

I mean if you and the machete love each other I think it’s fine to sleep together

Brilliant series

Please Christ. I’m an atheist but I’d happily sell my soul to Satan to ensure that if I thought he was there to buy it

Certainly was. Brasseye and Nathan Barley were also works of pure genius. They summed up the cultural landscape of Britain in their time perfectly.

Saw “The Day Shall Come” a little while ago. Was sadly a bit disappointed.

No ice is because it’s cold as balls here most of the time anyway

Think the last comment might have been a sarcastic joke

Well, holey shit, but yea

But if 50% of people are above the average, can that truly be an average?
