If an Englishman uses 'soccer' he's almost certainly from the upper class.

As “soccer” was played by the elite (such as the Oxford lad who is said to have coined “soccer”), it soon spread to the working classes, and became “football”.

There are broadly 150 indigenous language groups but only about 14 are still in common use.

If you've worked for a single company/system for 7 years you get a bonus 6 weeks 'long-service' leave.

We have a native cherry that grows inside out called a cherry ballart.

Our cuisine is really varied depending on your geography with a lot of soth East Asian influences. Most people will make stir-fry reasonably often and we have our own variations of sushi and dim sum which would offend most Japanese or Chinese people.

I really have no interest in Michael Lewis. He only writes about people he likes and usually fails to analyse their actions critically.

My guess. Dud was just totally disconnected from reality. He isn't that smart and didn't understand how badly he'd fucked up.

Except:

  • Failed/underperforming projects considerably outnumbered successful experiences.

  • Successful CCUS exceptions mainly existed in the natural gas processing sector serving the fossil fuel industry, leading to further emissions.

  • Captured carbon has mostly been used for enhanced oil recovery (EOR): enhancing oil production is not a climate solution.

Gold star content. I don't know why but this reminded me of my experience playing Sudden Strike for the first time.

Mmmhmm I know some of those words. Chan boards always make me feel like such a Normie.
