Hero. This one has a threat that "This is the last time we will serve this area of things don't improve" and I'm just like, win-win.

Bloody Avon putting a catalogue through my door with a sticky note saying "We're fed up of people not returning the books, please leave them outside the door for us to collect" - maybe if they're so precious to you, don't put them through stranger's letter boxes.

Reminds me of when the movie Legend did this irl on their poster, sneaking a two star review from the Guardian in between the Kray twins so it looked like another 4 or 5 star lol

First day as Vodafone network admin is going well. You wouldn't believe how fast this kettle boils on this three phase supply.

I always thought they hated free handouts, but now they're losing their minds about having to pay for a hot chocolate.

Yeah, a bit of a manipulative headline. The ex in question is the one that reported them to the police and she said that she wasn't crying for him.

Oh wait, I found it. It was Yakitate Japan. I genuinely can't remember if it was good or not, but I'm definitely going to finish it. I remembered that it was called something Ja-Pan (like a bread pun)

Dan @cratesofhippos.bsky.social · 5d

All I remember is that there was a boy who had magic hands that made him really good at making bread. And it was basically Bake Off The Anime.

Just remembered many years ago that I watched like 80% of an anime so I would have a conversation topic with someone that I wanted to be friends with at uni. And I can't for the life of me find the name of it.

The man who owns overpriced hotels all over Manchester is a commie because he's not racist, apparently... Some people, man.

And then they offer the manager a role on Cannavaro's coaching staff. Really insulting.

Never thought I'd have a strong opinion on Uzbekistan football, but their FA sacking the manager that just lead them to their first World Cup in history, so they could hire a flashier European manager to manage them in the tournament is a shocker.

🚨🇺🇿 Exclusive story confirmed: Fabio Cannavaro has signed in as new Uzbekistan head coach. Former Ballon d’Or will lead them into the World Cup 2026.
