For the shop there? Or parking?

It’s like when you strip the bark from a tree and find it rotted from the inside.

It’s great if you only want to rip-off other people. I can see reasonable usage though within that - I have some PoC Unity games knocking around from a while back where my placeholder graphics were just squares and the sounds simple waves, and I might have taken them further with animated spirites. Of course, without AI might also have gone in a radically unconventional aesthetic direction based around my lack of artistic talent and accidentally created something original.

Later, in a group meeting, the man on the end of the phone announced her plan as though it was his own without acknowledging her at all.

Nah, ask us about savouries and you might hear about pies and curries and chippies - the stuff you’ve heard a million times before. But ask a Brit about their favourite pudding or cake and you might want to book some time off for the reply.

A good chippy is non-negotiable in a northern town. Dunno why but Londoners can’t even seem to get the basics like skinning and boning the fish, never mind getting the batter crispy and not wet.

What about all the sweet guns you took from the Prawns?

I’m white British and went through this at a New Zealand Indian restaurant. After all the warnings, Indian spicy was barely even mid-level spicy. I’m from Bradford and don’t need mollycoddling.

In my experience Indians and British Asians are not even that into spice heat as a whole.

Yeah, but how many Europeans know the capital of Lemuria?

Main character syndrome on a national level. MAGA is just the more self-accepting end of it.

I think they’re way past the point of even discussing that.

What’s intelligent about getting deep into debt and using up years of your life to get into niche work you can only do in a handful of locations, if you’re lucky?
