It was literally two forty year old gimps reading tweets endlessly. How did it come to this.

imavillan Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Push button taps in pubs and restaurants that when you press them the water flow lasts less than five seconds. How the heck are you supposed to wash your hands properly when you've got to keep one pressed on the bloody tap? And it's the same with some hand dryers that go off as soon as you put your hand under them. Why? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a happy middle ground between letting punters leave the taps running for minutes on end, and the kind of shit taps that literally turn off a second after you let go so it's impossible to clean your hands properly because you're constantly touching a surface other people's pissy hands have been on. Most pubs get nowhere near getting it right though. I'll chuck it in the bin with pubs that can't be bothered to fix the locks on their cubicles. Great beer, great food, a nice building in a decent location, and you won't spend a few quid putting a new lock on a door so someone can shit in peace? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having just come out of the bog iin the garage, they have those electronic sensor taps and the same for the shitter flush.

The number of times I've been to a pub or restaurant after multi billion pound refits. The front of house is extraordinary, all shiny and new, amazing decor, super plush sofas and chairs. You go in the bogs and they're still the same shitty ones with paint flaking off the radiator and bust locks on the cubicle doors. Amazing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super shiny multi million pound showrooms with free coffee and posh biscuits, leather sofas. Out the back the workshops a shit hole, bogs stink as only get cleaned by the trainee and the workshop offices have salesman cast off chairs and furniture, ohh an generally old PCs too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To trick the 16 year olds who believe SSN is gospel, putting a pen in the hand of anyone speaking so they appear like an intellectual. I give you exhibit A. Two men, standing without desks and with no paper in sight, but they have the pens. So they're smart, and are in no way lying. Don't think that this is limited to SSN, you'll find this repeated in any bad talk show or game show on any trashy tv - ITV and Sky (are very guilty of this). This is how low of an opinion tv companies have of their viewers. I’m not saying what you’re saying isn’t true, but I have to admit I do this all the time when I’m presenting stuff at work. It’s not to look intelligent, it’s to give my hands something to do so I don’t have to think about where to put them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These lot are on tv, so it's an intentional prop added by SSN producers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I don’t think Tesla’s exterior designs have aged well at all. They look dated already to me. The quality is still appalling (off the scale bad). Musk has been selling his stocks aggressively since last November so it could be going down the pan. He said before some of the factories are furnaces burning tonnes of money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
