Palid McHaggis, hoots, mon, och aye the noo!

Nobody does anti Dutch racism quite like the English.

Really? I don't know many Brits who have a bad opinion of the Dutch. I certainly don't; I've never met a Dutch person I didn't like.

Comes of them being conquered by William of Orange back in the day.

Billy the who now?

Well no they discourage fast driving

Not really, or at least not with the fixed cameras. They encourage speeding as normal then harsh braking just before the camera then speeding again. Just watch traffic on the motorways when a temporary speed limit is imposed. People slow down for the gantries where there might be cameras mounted then floor it to the next gantry.

Average speed cameras are a better bet if you want to control speeding, but perhaps don't make as much money.

I'm an old bastard and mostly play patience, sudoku, and cryptic crosswords on my phone. And maybe Bloons TD 6 to get the dailies if I'm away from home without my laptop.

On console I play mostly single-player RPGs but I also play PUBG. Tried that on mobile (how my kids play it) but fuck that shit!

Also, what the hell is going on with that cloud? Isn't it cold? What's for pudding? Why do policemen look so young these days? Everything was better when I was a youngster!

One of my kids once emptied the dishwasher without bitching about it. I have no fucking clue what was going on there.

Never piss on your camp fire if it's upwind of your tent. - source, was in the scouts, we did this to another patrol. Man, their tent stank.

Being a Brit, for years I've jokingly referred to the 4th of July as 'Rebellion Day' to my USian friends. Not sure I'm joking any more, just hopeful. Go on. Rebel!

One night a week of mandatory, free, tabletop RPGs hosted in libraries, council buildings, etc. D&D (or even a good roleplaying game) for everyone! Player groups are mixed up every two months to ensure multiple opportunities for bonding with new people.

Buffy.

It was just a big sloppy plateful of Beverly Hills, 90210 with a small side salad of weird shit.

TIL I'd be a big man in Thailand.

Jesus’ head is being used to transmit porn

I'll take 'sentences I never thought I'd read today'. please.

My GP surgery was the same (except 8:30 not 8:00), but moved to an app a couple of months ago. Given that I suspect the point of it is to allow an AI to triage appointment requests I wouldn't be surprised if yours 'upgrades' as well.
