Not sure if you’re pulling our legs or really don’t know…

We’ve had the term “suss c*nt” in Aussie English for decades, and British English isn’t that far removed.

I agree with your terminology - updating is for often small incremental software patches.

Upgrade would be a complete program overhaul, or more commonly in my use of it, a change to a newer, better physical product.

My hands are also tiny and smol, and I’m also clumsy, but I have no issues with my S23 Ultra. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I’m an Aussie, and a biscuit is a biscuit, plus I love Britcoms, yet I’ve never heard the term!

I love it, though.

I love horror films with terrifying vengeful spirits. I get sad when someone kills a harmless spider. I love running around the wasteland of Fallout games and blasting the baddies. I cried when a bird flew into the glass of my bedroom window and died.

We draw stock internationally via FedEx, with usually at least one shipment arriving per day.

If I have a particularly urgent order for my customer, I will of course be tracking the incoming shipment.

Every. Damn. Time. I visit their website, I get halted in my usual manic pace by their stupid, slow to load pop up. I haven’t even been able to figure out how to block it, and usually don’t have time when I’m working to figure these things out.

Our company gives you so much money, FedEx - why do you have to be so difficult to work with as thanks?!

Kamikaze death cult.

That completely stopped working for me a while ago, but Samsung’s Reminders app was able to do it well.

I started using it instead, and the other day, uninstalled the Google Assistant app - the only time I was opening it was by accident, when I’d drift off to sleep holding my phone, and he rudely awoken by the noise it made.

I gave up on it entirely probably a year or so ago, as I found if anything it was getting worse.

My understanding is that the words and phrasing, and the overall scam, are a filter for idiots. Only the dumbest need apply.

The issue is the 4/20 (blaze it).

It also seems fake.

My mother certainly told me it was necessary as a child, but I think it was more in the “upholding the social contract” and “not being a lazy arse” sense of the word.

Yep. Basically any position where you’re in some sort of service to the community.

It really gives you perspective.

Also PTSD.

I’ve said this, except you have a choice:

You can do retail, hospitality, or health services (eg cleaning hospitals, very basic patient support, anything that requires minimal training and won’t do harm to any patient in their care).

I am a Service rep and my mum was a nurse, so we’ve both seen a lot of the worst of humanity. I think people need to extend more empathy to nurses and other medical staff - I understand for many patients, it’s a horrible, scary situation, but these people are (generally) there to help and have to deal with a lot of awful stuff every single day.

More patience and empathy in general would make for a much better society.

I’m fairly certain some or most of my partner’s boxers & trunks have a dick hole. Certainly the boxers do.

I wash them, I should really know this for sure…

He was fantastic in Righteous Gemstones.

Let’s play Baby Billy’s Bible Bonkers!

Oh no, it’s too late, I’ve already been fooled!

I’m living with my grandmother in law and she’s just very fussy. Sometimes we think, I’d rather just pay rent somewhere, but we love her and she’s unwell and we’re saving money so we’re all looking after each other for now and trying not to sweat the small stuff like hanging a television when we don’t really need to.

I honestly haven’t even asked, but I know what the answer will be - can’t even leave the toaster that I use daily on the bench, has to go away once cooled. Getting to leave my coffee machine out was a bloody battle.

Her house, we live here for free and just pay our share of utilities and do our own groceries, and I help her if she is having a bad health day etc. It’s fine. It’s (mostly) worth the frustration.

I’m more annoyed with the limitations that renters experience in general - it’s the landlord’s property, but it’s the renter’s home, and sometimes it feels like we’re never really allowed to make any place our own, what with all the rules and regulations and punishments.

ETA: "won’t have a bar of… ", ie she won’t accept that sort of thing.

I’d actually love to wall mount but as a renter, not possible.

Currently living with elderly family and she also won’t have a bar of a wall mount.

I’m only using Chrome for work because the profile switching & syncing is so much smoother and our company is split into two primary brands - my brain handles it better with an individual browser profile for each.

We’re consolidating everything into one next year, meaning I can ditch the second browser!

I’ve tried setting up a second profile but it was just too much effort to get it working and bring everything across from both, then do the same on my laptop for travel, so I’ll just wait for now.
