Schools literally prefer to hire foreigners as English teachers because their English is better.

I’ve on the Internet for the same amount of time and it’s gotten MUCH worse.

Big tech realised that touch screen keyboards are cheaper to manufacture (develop) than physical keyboards and persuaded everyone that touch screen keyboards are better. Absolutely not. Screw touch screen keyboards.

The Samsung keyboard doesn’t respond to tapping the word you want most of the time. They fixed it once and then broke it again during the next update

I absolutely loathe posts that just say something like “This dog.”

This dog WHAT, bozo.

Non natives can usually spell better than natives. They learn to spell words and then pronounce them instead of the other way around.

That sounds awful. I think tangy sourdough bread is disgusting (which is one of the reasons I hated living in eastern Germany).

Important emails. All other notifications are unnecessary garbage.

There are a surprising number of people who have notifications on for stuff that needs to mind its own business.

Me. I work freelance. I can’t afford to miss an email.

The trick is only to have important inbox notifications on and no notifications for any other apps. Then you don’t need to put your phone on silent.

Please don’t call mask wearers weirdos. Ever since I’ve had Covid, ANY virus does a number on me. My wife will have the sniffles for 3 days and I’ll end up with a high fever and bronchitis for weeks. And I hadn’t even had a cold for at least decade before I caught Covid.

This guy’s a nutter, but I still get it. I’m beyond tired of this shit too.

My boss is a virologist and she says WEAR A FUCKING MASK.

No. Because it’s airborne and vaccines are not effective enough because not enough people are vaccinated.

PS I fucking hate long covid.

If we’re lucky it kills most US politicians before it crosses the borders. (If by some miracle countries do the right thing at the right time, i.e. closing the borders)

Free at the point of care.

And even that isn’t true. A dental crown costs 300 quid.

Out of hours doctors are all private doctors (they have been for years) and hospitals now have a department you get sent to when you shouldn’t be sent to A&E but its still kinda urgent, and those are private too. Also, last time I needed a surgical procedure they sent me to a private hospital. So yeah, you’re absolutely right.

BSW ftw (not).

Why did they steal a penguin? What a dumb thing to do. Karma.

They’re running them in Scotland.

Are you a Chinese troll?
