I mean, they don't even look like real food they're so red.

Damn dude. Your response was far more eloquent than what I was cooking up. Thank you.

First time I've been sad that Lemmy doesn't have karma like "the other place" used to.

Might be partly because I have a cat now and didn't as a kid but it's almost like they're anti-comedy. So unfunny it almost boggles the mind as to how they were produced and became so popular.

Yea, I meant we don't tip in Britain as a matter of course but sure if I've received excellent service I might. I am a bit of a tight-arse though, not going to lie, so it's rare.

One more reason I would hate to live in America. In Britain we don't give tips.

Now that would be fascinating. Britain has a deeply entrenched drinking culture. Regularly getting drunk to the point of vomiting and passing is very common. The managers where I work all live away and stay in hotels when they visit my town every other week. They all go out and get wasted on a Wednesday night (with company funds, totally legitimately) and often don't come into work Thursday so they can drive home in the afternoon when they sober up. All totally normal.

Ban advertising, pub drinking and cheap supermarket booze. Inflate the price and run a massive anti-drinking campaign. It'd be interesting to see how long it'd take for the tide to turn. Also, if we end up going the way of America during prohibition with illicit alcohol flooding the streets, how long that would take to die down and for people to accept it.

But it'll never happen. No politician is even going to think about limiting the availability of alcohol in this country. They'd be so unpopular it'd be political suicide for them and their party.
