Sadly no. On the one occasion I did open one of the cards, there was no return address. Otherwise I’d have been going round for a plate like Jamal and Wanda on Thanksgiving.

That’s put me right off my brew.

1. Party venue in pub conference room.
2. Arrived 30 minutes prior to the start time of our party.
3. Brought some token decorations to make it look like we’d made some effort.
4. We brought a single small balloon.
5. There was obviously a party the night before, celebrating a 60th of some kind.
6. Pub owners hadn’t removed the decorations from previous party.
7. We didn’t want to dispose of the original balloons in case their owners wanted to collect them and weren’t able to previously.
8. The 60 balloons sat there the whole time during our party.
9. Previous party organisers made us look like the absolute amateurs we are.
10. MILDLY infuriating.
11. Bonus extra item: nobody actually cared, just thought it was comical, emphasised by the placement of the 70th balloon, where each set of balloons is in direct proportion to the amount of sentiment held for the celebrant.

Either that or it’s to prevent the other kids’ envious tears when my toddler rocks up in his Jimmy Choo stilettos.

Your response is precisely the reaction I referenced by the edit. Why is it personal? “You don’t understand FOSS” “You clearly don’t use Linux” and now, beautifully, “You’re ashamed of being a nerd”.

is your shame of being nerdy so deep that you prefer to try and shame others for not being ashamed?

This response couldn’t be a more perfect example of what I’m saying. Thank you.

I wouldn’t disagree, and I’m not saying FOSS is inferior, I’m just whinging about the Linux evangelising.

There is no perfect OS that can have universal approval. However if I’d I said “Windows is a data-harvesting nightmare” or “Being locked in to Apple ecosystems is constricting and expensive” then I’m sure I’d see the upvote button hammered on Lemmy. But to seemingly question the validity of Linux as a silver bullet for the vast majority of desktop users is borderline heresy.

Since when do people need to take into account if anyone else cares when posting to social media? They're not content creators serving an audience.

I mean, this whole post is about what content is preferable in this specific community.

The irony of this article being behind a subscription paywall.

Thought I’d try a different approach. Nope, still an idiot.

Nice try officer

The difficulty is, he’s not a rapist in the eyes of the law as there was no conviction, so Ten Hag or the club can’t say anything that suggests he is without opening themselves up to legal repercussions.

That said, Greenwood absolutely should not play for this or any other club because, despite the outcome, we all know what he is. The termination of his contract should be unquestionable.
