Happy new year, one and all!

The fuck is Nostr? I can’t keep up.

Fair enough if that’s the distinction they’re choosing to make but, as per my other comment, Buffalo Castle did have rules/dice and was quite a bit earlier.

M&S pants. Recommended, obv.

I stubbed my toe on the bed frame this morning. Hurt like hell. Pain is woke. So is the bed frame. God damned woke everywhere. And don’t get me started on my tax return. Fucking woke shit.

Oh, and the Buffalo Castle solo adventure for Tunnels and Trolls came out in 1976, so even earlier.

Warlock of the Firetop Mountain (The first Gamebook ever)

There was a series of books called ‘Choose Your Own Adventure’ which were published earlier. I had the third one, ‘By Balloon to the Sahara’ which was published in ‘79.

Warlock of Foretop Mountain was ‘82.

For texture you could use finely chopped celery.

I don’t think the lighting does it any favours either.

But, yea, chillies and curries are hard to present and photo well!

Yeah, it’s not the prettiest photo.

Self-cooking chickens at last! Thank you, science!

Both are cracking films, but I’d be more likely to watch Death on the Nile. Wait, depends which version. Peter Ustinov for the win!

In a brief moment of clarity I told my wife we should do dry January.

I’m a stickler for correctness.

Why didn’t you go anywhere? You’re all over this community posting your misery but no matter how often you’re given the keys to making your life better you choose to ignore them. You have to do something. Doing nothing and expecting your life to magically change is just stupidity.

North Korea would like a word.

And hell, y’all’s empire fell to pieces long ago. The time is coming where y’all’re gonna have to start engaging with cultures other than y’all’s own as equals instead of with that insufferable smug sense of superiority for once. Best start practicing now

I wouldn’t say America’s ‘empire’ has fallen to pieces just yet but the rest of your comment is good advice for Americans.

No-one I know wants it to happen.

Where are they getting the L, A, Y, and D from? Stoopid!

It’s a two-fer.

A small number of extremely rich Brits like to dress up in red, ride horses, and chase a fox across the countryside with a pack of dogs who will tear the fox apart if they catch it. They also don’t give much of a shit if their hunt has to go across farms or peoples’ gardens they’ll just go anyway. And maybe pay compensation for damage but often not. It’s seen as pretty much the height of ‘posh wanker’ behaviour. Bunch of cunts.

Plus also in this photo we have the privately educated, millionaire, ‘man of the people’ Nigel Farage who was probably more responsible than anyone else for Brexit. Cunt.
