But the format of the commenting underneath is absolute garbage. Horses for courses I guess, i much, much prefer it to single-threaded forums. Any post can have dozens of seperate little conversations all going on, all related to the topic, but isolated from each other so they can all be easily followed. On a forum like this, after a couple of pages a post is pretty much gone, and more than one conversation going on in a thread turns things in to a right mess.

I always go for the cheap option and buy a big roll of tape without a dispenser, then when it comes to wrapping Christmas presents go batshit when I lose the end for the fifteenth time.

It's why God invented Amazon gift vouchers I suppose. Also, it pisses me off when my favourite brand of deodorant starts a new flavour but has almost the exact same colour scheme as the one I normally buy. I now smell different to normal as I picked up the wrong one in the shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew a guy at work who got stuffed out of a £3k bonus, he was like "at least I ain't paying more tax". Some people are THAT stupid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a multitude of stories of things that happened to him. All are very funny but all he is doing is appropriating stories he's been told and inserting himself as the protagonist. He told me a great one about being caught speeding in Mozambique a few weeks ago. I waited until he'd completed the (embellished) story before pointing out that it was actually me that was done for speeding in Africa but that I very much appreciated the extra touches he'd added to the story. The thing with this bloke I work with, i now think about everything he says, cus I just think bullshit everytime he talks to me, it's not like he isn't a nice bloke, he's sound and the lies aren't malicious, it's just I feel like saying that's clearly bollocks to him.

Seat68 Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Reddit for me is purely for funny pictures and gifs. Commented once to correct someone on a retail epos system, thought what the hell have I become and never commented again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
