  1. The rub there is that the manufacturers don't actually say who it's improved for, and it's always them, via cheaper shittier ingredients.
  2. As ever, just saying this doesn't make it so.
  3. Are you a full-time prick, or just an enthusiastic amateur?
  4. That doesn't really track though, because there's not any alternative if something dreadful happens. You can still need their help while thinking they're not the best.

    I used to occasionally shop in Oddbins in Edinburgh, out of pure convenience. Their prices were absurd compared to other similar retailers, and the selection nowhere near as good. Not really surprised they've gone.

    It's definitely ChatGPT. You can spot the patterns. What a fucking shambles.
  7. The broadcaster and entertainer Clive Anderson has been shot dead by television host Noel Edmonds at his house in Cornwall this evening.
  8. I don't think prioritising the Island's wildlife, beauty and heritage over the vanity project of some tiny-dicked oil wanker daddy's boy would be a particularly bad thing.
  9. What a daft take. People have had to put up with shit facilities for 20 years so there's no point in creating something decent now? Central transport hubs with ample indoor seating and facilities are an essential part of any large town or city - relying on the goodwill of nearby commercial establishments for seating and toilets is an absolutely ridiculous notion. The 'bus station' as it is now is an embarrassment. A few shoddy shelters clinging onto the outer rim of a pay and display car park, largely exposed to the wind and rain and cold year round, really make it clear how much of a priority public transport and its users are on the IOM.
  10. How on earth are wanting an NHS dental service that's up to scratch and also wanting to go on holiday mutually exclusive? The snobbery is rank - you don't get to deem what's a luxury or not for others from up there on your perch, I'm afraid.
  11. It depends on your council area. I'm in South Lanarkshire and we get one free bulk uplift per year. Each subsequent one is just over thirty quid and can include huge amounts of stuff, up to 20 items. Absolute bargain.
  12. You're not thinking vertically.

    Jesus wept. Nobody is putting blackboard chalk and nicotine into flour mate. UK-milled white and brown flour has mandatory calcium, iron, thiamin and niacin added because that brings it back up to match the nutritional profile of wholemeal flour. Nothing there to worry about. Individual millers add other things, like additional enzymes (to bolster the exact same ones already naturally in the flour) to assist raising, and of course the usual additives to self-raising flour needed to make it rise without the need for separate bicarb. Wikipedia is free to read, you know.

    You were probably fucking wankered as usual.

    I used to live in Leeds. The Three Legs is alright, but I'd suggest you go a bit further along and then down Briggate. One of the lanes on the right just before the bottom contains Whitelocks, an absolutely superb pub and a proper slice of history - it's over 300 years old.
  16. She's a cunt. Unsurprising, then, that other cunts think she's great. I think that covers it.

    I worked in Shoprite in 2000, and the aisles with booze in were roped off outwith the licensed hours.

    Give it a rest mate. Nobody's impressed.

    I think it's something of a shame that one of the only interesting and thoughtful new posters around here in a long, long time has as ever been driven away by the usual inane drivel, sniping and baiting hostility that almost all threads devolve into. As for the suggestion that he's anti-Manx, I've read most things Jack has posted and I think perhaps he's just anti-fuckwit, which I do appreciate will cause a bit of friction on MF.

    Still widely available here on the west coast of Scotland, although it goes stale before you get it back from the shop more often than not!
  21. Aye. It's just the same shite that gets rolled out any time a minority gets a bit too uppity for the old guard's liking. It's been the same for time immemorial. What it really means is "I'm so unbelievably intolerant I can't bear to see this happen in front of me - can't they just go away and let me pretend they don't exist?".
  22. Check the name of the defendant. No doubt this has been a simple fine blown right out of proportion by his usual nonsense.
