The Raptor 1,227 Posted August 31, 2022 I've just seen a load of Christmas food in the supermarket. In August. I'm I the only one that gets angry about this. I like Christmas but this sort of thing will make me sick of it before it gets here. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That will be for the very old folk who are buying selection boxes for their grandchildren, lest they run out early😄 ...in a similar sense to the tendency never to buy green bananas.

It's far too bloody early, plus it won't be the same Christmas as usual for a lot of people. It's just rubbing their noses in it. *Our noses.

Thumbbass 319 Posted September 2, 2022 What is the cut off age/IQ whereby you put your mobile phone on loudspeaker then hold the phone horizontally with the microphone at your mouth and speaker pointing away from you so you can't hear it? I mean it is moronic at a level that I can't comprehend but I see it every day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All about the bassssss. The bass player (forgotten his name) had an interesting technique, using his thumb as a pick. The calluses must have been monumental. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
