I’m saying they could get more leverage out of the movement if they say something like: “on date X, we are teaching refrigerator repair in the parking lot. Bring your broken fridge or just yourself.”

That opens them up to liability though. If someone tries to fix their own fridge after watching the repair cafe, and gets injured or burns down their home, they could say that they weren’t taught properly.

On top of that, they probably wouldn’t be able to teach you to fix every problem, just the problem that the broken fridge has on the day. If they teach you how to fix the thermostat, that won’t help if you get a coolant leak.

I’ll give that a try next time, thanks :)

I’ll have to work up to that on my motorbike :o

I was just thinking the same, but saw those rails? between the lanes. They look like they’d be slippery at best, and could catch a wheel. It’s hard to tell from the video though.

I’ve got a weird issue with the soles of my feet. I’m not ticklish at all, but the soles of my feet react as if the nerves are turned up to 11. It’s only for light touches though, I can walk around barefooted with no problems, even on rough surfaces.

If someone touches my feet it’s a sensory overload that lasts for a while afterwards. It’s a weird combination of light tickling and burning, and feels like there’s something stuck to the bottom of my foot for a minute or two after the touch stops. The really weird part is, I can tickle my own feet, but apparently you’re not supposed to be able to tickle yourself 🤷🏻‍♂️

Please, do tell. Cramp is annoying pain, because it tends to lock my leg up when it happens.

I can’t remember if it was the exact same procedure, but I’ve had something very similar when I had a bladder biopsy done, but I’m going to beat you on making someone else uncomfortable :D

For anyone who doesn’t know, these procedures start with an anaesthetic gel being squirted into your penis through a syringe to numb everything, then the camera and tools get inserted. It’s been a while, but from what I remember, some air gets pushed in along with everything else. The nurse warned me that the air coming out can be uncomfortable. I also had to have a pretty full bladder for the procedure.

Afterwards, I needed to pee straight away, so used the toilet next to the waiting room. When I went, it burned a bit from the gel wearing off and everything just generally being tender. Suddenly though, I had this feeling of intense pressure, and a fireball forced its way out followed by some boiling pee. I used my free hand to steady myself, and my knees almost buckled. I let out an involuntary ‘Jesus Christ!’. I finished and cleaned up, and the nurse met me outside the door.

She had a huge grin on her face, and said ‘I told you it would sting’, then nodded towards the waiting room, where about half a dozen terrified looking men had apparently heard me :D

I’m in the UK, and I’ve had decent laptops from rapidIT and ITZoo, both .co.uk as far as I remember. I can’t remember which laptop I got from Rapid as it was a few years ago, but the first one had a faulty motherboard, and they swapped the laptop with no issues.

I had a Stonebook branded Clevo N750BU from ITZoo, which is an i7 based laptop, and Mint works perfectly on it. It’s quite old now, so you’ll probably get a newer one for your budget, but with a RAM upgrade it runs everything I throw at it. I use it for designing and editing logos in Inkscape and Krita, and for editing a website in html, css, and javascript, so anything newer should do it even better :)

Careful, that almost sounds like exercise 😳

Arranging for your own scooter to meet you would be great too, especially if it’s got decent storage. There have been a few times when I’ve gone to my nearest town and done a bit more shopping than I was expecting to, so getting back from the bus stop would be hard work, or I’ve gone to visit someone and had to leave early for the bus.

Having a scooter that could come to me would mean that I could walk or bus there, but be able to make my own way home, or drag my broken old body out for a longer walk without having to turn back too soon 🙂

Ch ch ch chicken!

Wait, it doesn’t mean right here, right now? Maybe that’s why I’m banned from the supermarket 🤔

Nope, there’s a decent number of us who can completely miss any type of hint, and need to be told explicitly that someone’s into us.

FREEEEEE BIIIIIRRRRDD!

Wasn’t that one of the Incan gods?

Just a reminder:

No worries :)

Besides, it was the luck of the feed. The t-shirt post was only two posts above this one when I was browsing :)

It looks like you’ve replied to the wrong post. There’s a post in [email protected] about a Luigi t-shirt 👍

Yeah, that’s the one. I’ve just checked the Wikipedia page for it, and it was rereleased on the Switch, so I’ve got it muddled up.

Apologies OP :)
