Used to work in marketing, UK. There was a frew beer fridge, with instructions to only help yourselves after 1630 on a Friday. Beers at lunch were fairly standard on a Friday, less so on other days but not unheard of.

Are they gaudy and bejewelled?

“These devices have no legitimate purpose, apart from assisting in criminal activity, and reducing their availability will support policing and industry in preventing vehicle theft which is damaging to both individuals and businesses.” She added

Yeah how about fuck off with this nonsense.

Very fine charcoal powder maybe (and self-contained breathing apparatus).

TBF it was a good idea to buy, just required the caveat that you should’ve sold in January. I somehow timed my exit well, then proceeded to plough a stupid amount into another meme srock which now sits at -48k, a good reminder that gambling is for idiots. Like me.

Oof, you went full DRS. Not judging, I probably would’ve sone the same if I got in late.

That article is a work of art!

Not really, the bucket list only gets longer

Totally normal comparing Thunberg to Musk, they’re so similar in so many ways

Yeah it’s a bad composite, not just you.

I believe so, ao I only use it when I need to be silent like a ceremony or on set.

Absolutely, while being able to silently capture a 30FPS burst is kinda magic, it just feels wrong. I still shoot with mechanical shutter (at least second curtain), basically for the feels (and the extra bit depth).

There’s a reason mirrorless is here to stay, the autofocus is basically cheat mode compared to a DSLR. I do miss some aspects of the optical viewfinder though.

A few years back, testing out new zombie infection game mode in indie VR FPS, 12 of us on the server including the dev. I’m last man standing, everyone else is infected, making scary zombie noises as I pick them off with my trusty bow and arrow. I eventually succumb to the inevitable and get piled on, they’re all too distracted making brain eating noises to notice the martyrdom grenade fall to the floor…

That was peak gaming for me.

Left my last job on bad terms despite doing everything to the letter of my contract. They were hugely offended, betrayed that I hadn’t given them a heads up 3 months before handing in my notice. Even tried to reject my resignation letter.

We solved this by having oddparents instead of godparents.

Top three would be my weird Christmas ‘bonuses’ from a previous employer. In order of weirdness: some fake notes (representing the companies record profits that year), a single bike pedal, and finally a spanner which had been spray painted orange.

My parents live on a street where all the local footballers/celebs like to live. Without exception, they buy these beautiful ~£1,000,000 old houses, demolish them and replace with some nasty gaudy affront to architecture that absolutely screams new money. Almost all have those pillars…

I think my face just made a brand new expression. Thanks for sharing!
