It's funny, I never think of roses as being a flower I particularly like, but then when I walk past them in full bloom in a park I always stop and admire them, and give them a sniff.

QED is actually the opposite of a conspiracy theory channel or organisation. They're very pro science and critical thinking, and spend a lot of time debunking conspiracy theories and pseudo-science.

I've got no skin in the debate in this thread, I didn't watch the actual video and have no opinion on the validity of what you or the other posters are saying, I'm just pointing out that I think that you're wrong to dismiss the channel as a source, even if you disagree with the claims made in that specific video.

You're using dollars, and US based rates and labour costs, in a post that's using pounds, in a UK community.

Disintegration, The Cure. Not only does it have some of their most beautiful songs on, the production is incredible.

Please back up what you've said here. There was a referendum on Welsh devolution, which only people in Wales voted for. There was a referendum on Scottish independence, which only people in Scotland voted for. Afaik there has never been a vote in Northern Ireland on independence / rejoining Ireland.

The vote on Catalán independence was held by the Catalán government, voted on only in Catalonia, Spain and it's validity was rejected by the Spanish government. And Catalonia is not the only region of Spain to have its own language, and it's very common for multiple languages to be spoken within a country, I'm not really sure what the relevance of that is here.

Ahh so maybe that's why I'm seeing a lot more posts, comments and votes... I've been using Jerboa since I landed here and on the whole I'm fine with it, can anyone who's used both tell me whether there's a big difference between the two?

I just hang stuff up in the bathroom and spray with my plant mister, usually does the job.

Oh we did have that argument. Also cereal. I'm amazed I lasted a year with him.

Currently in bed with my 5th virus within 8 months, and agree.

No-one ever lay on their death bed wishing they'd done more ironing.

On the whole (unless it's necessary for a professional environment) it's a waste of time. I iron nothing, and got rid of my ironing board because it was just getting in the way. I've kept my iron just in case, but last time it was used was about 5 years ago when a friend was staying who needed to iron a shirt for a funeral.

I had an ex who wouldn't try anything, it was infuriating. I asked him once whether he liked a vegetable, he said no, I asked how it had been cooked when he had it as maybe he'd like it if it was done a different way, and he said he'd never tried it. The only vegetable he'd eat was broccoli. He got upset when I said he had the eating habits of a toddler but I stand by that.
