  1. “ Right lads, let’s offer them a Final solution…” Sounds right up your straße.
  2. Same with 5 day working weeks. It’s been shown in numerous trials now that productivity remains the same or actually rises with a four day week, whilst employees are far more content and less stressed. I work 5 days currently, 07:30-18:00. Constantly asked to do extra weekend shifts, for laughable rates. Yesterday, was asked at 15:00 if I’d do a shift today. Today him I was getting pegged by the Mrs. on Friday night and needed 2 days for my hoop to recover. They’ll get the idea eventually.
  3. Jared Leto, the weird, rapey, god-complex bloke, has climbed the Empire State Building https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-67380226 I have a few technical climbery type points here. Jared Leto’s height is variously stated as 5’9”-5’11”. So we can make an educated guess that each illuminated panel above is roughly 6’0”. There’s about 14-15 of them above him, so roughly 90’. That means there’s 90’ of rope between him and the top. In dynamic rope, which is what’s used in climbing, you can expect between 10-15% stretch in a fall, assuming the rope between the climber and the top is fairly taut. It’s plainly not taut in the pic. If he falls at this point, he’s going to drop at least 10-15’ before the rope begins to take his weight, another 5-6’ before he stops. Except… the photographer is obviously standing on a horizontal ledge,( There are lots of these all the way up the building), two panels below. He’d hit the ledge/photographer if he fell off. He’s also not wearing a lid, so if he got flipped by the loose rope, we’re looking at Cabbage Leto. Given the above, would anyone like to guess how bored I am at the moment?
  4. You had abstract concepts of time? Pfft. Did your mam shop at Laws, too?
  5. You’ll never get it finished if you keep doing this, mind.
  6. We couldn’t afford snow. Had to steal water from the neighbours and freeze it.
  7. I’ve been wondering who she reminded me of. Put a wig on it and it’s her.
  8. Quiff sitting in his own filth in his Mam’s basement, creating alt accounts and dropping bait like… Then has the fucking cheek to tell someone to get a life
