We have bus lanes here. But during a tube strike, my bus was stuck at a traffic light for about 20 minutes, I'm not exaggerating. This was central London, and yes, it was all because of the cars clogging up the roads.

Most on the main road in my area is one person. How many times have I missed the bus and had to wait 20 mins for the next one, because I can't cross the road to the stop, because 4 people need to get by in their cars.

Did he do a naughty in his nappy again and they're telling him accidents happen, it's okay?

That photo is weird and creepy.

I thought Luke and Nellith were meant to team up to fight Vader? And that the original was meant to span over about 8 episodes (ROTJ was meant to be just about the rescue of Han) but then Lucas went through the divorce and just wanted to wrap the series up, so he retconned Leia to be the sister.

I wish we could have had the "Luke searches for and trains his sister" arc.

Depends, I guess. It does nothing for period pains with me, but when I burst my ear drum last month, it took the pain from excruciating to manageable.

School counsellor?

That's ridiculous, honestly. Students should have the same confidentiality rights as an adult getting counselling, ie they only disclose anything if they fear for your or someone else's safety.

Where Rupert Murdoch? I'd put him as even worse than Bezos.

Ridiculous things.

Any recommendations? I don't know if I want to splash out on something expensive. I was thinking of getting some cheap tat to act more as a deterrent, but then I thought, what if I actually need the footage? My commute is pretty short, but the amount of drivers who are happy to risk my life to shave 5 seconds off their journey is a problem.

Would any £5 cheapo camera make drivers think twice before trying to run me into the kerb or am I better off getting a decent quality camera? I'm cool with refurb/second hand.

Why are union subs so high in the US? As a part time worker I pay under a tenner a month, but even as a full time worker, I'd be paying £16.

Not his first attempt, but I want to do whatever I can to encourage him to stay on the wagon this time. I don't have any experience of this, so I'd appreciate any tips from those who have been there already.

Edit 02/10: he's still clean!

Shamelessly stolen from I can't remember.

This is hilarious! The mods are being compensated for their time with shiny gold stars!

This would be fine for small independent forums that don't really make a profit, but for spezzit? More fool them.

And there's still this much battery left. A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. I wasn't expecting it to still have any power left at all. I suppose with the sim out, all it was doing was powering the clock, but still! Unfortunately, I've had to retire it as my network won't connect on it anymore.

I bet there's a language somewhere that sums that whole sentence up in one word.
