12·4 days agoSimply tell your colleagues you can’t attend the wedding. End of sentence. You don’t have to tell them why.
I verbally beat this phrase into my kids: “No” is a complete sentence.
Fuck giving people details unnecessarily IMO. Those close to you will already know why. Those not close don’t deserve to.

9·11 days agoThanks for taking the time. I must have read that five times before but it’s such a great story I’ll always take the time.
We’ve something similar in Ireland:
“I could complain but who’d listen?”

Comic Strips@lemmy.world•Animals with Misleading Names by Bird and MoonEnglish
41·14 days agoThat one’s to catch out foreigners. I’m convinced.
Source: foreigner that will never be caught out but might very well have if he didn’t know a South Dakotan.
Do they actually serve those anywhere?

United Kingdom@feddit.uk•UK train operator nationalised by government after 30 years of privatisationEnglish
81·20 days agoAh my bad. I thought most of the privatisation over there was under her. Did she do the water and BT or was that him too?

55·20 days agoQuick, hook Thatcher up to a magnet for infinite electricity. She’s spinning so fast we could end climate change.

It seemed so cool at the time to magically have the internet in your pocket. Little did we know that it was a crack pipe in disguise.

Today I Learned (TIL)@lemmy.ca•TIL Bobby Fingers made another video last month after taking over a year offEnglish
8·24 days agoBobby Fingers is hands down the best thing on the internet. I nearly wet myself laughing at several points during that video when it released.
YouTube unfortunately age restricted it for art on his t-shirt so took a lot of momentum out of his first release in ages. I hope they didn’t deprive us all of more because so much work clearly went into this one.
Edit: FYI he was a member of the rubber bandits who had this incredible hit tune here in Ireland that I don’t think left the country that much but the video is amazing.
There’s a lot of local language in it but you’ll get the jist (“bag of yokes” means MDMA pills for example) and speculation was RIFE here about who the two lads were for years.

When I was in computer science in college back in the 1900s, they told us that the USSR was responsible for some of the best algorithms still in use at the time (both for RAM and CPU usage) because they just had less to work with.
Guess we’re all in that boat now.
