I hate that about disability assessments run by those Capita bastards. The whole "well you got here okay so you can't struggle with mobility".

No you fucking arsewomble, it's just threatening the means to purchase the basics and essentials is worth the physical agony it causes going to your human zoo and jumping through your arbitrary hoops, you daft walking talking fannyflap.

I hate making it personal but I can't see how anyone would voluntarily stick at a job like that.

Yes.

It's not that we're particularly fucked financially, we're doing enough to keep our heads well clear of the water, but we're not wealthy by any means and either parents have helped us by stumping up an initial outlay on something, and we've paid them back.

I suspect this TV show would have to be shown after 10pm

Never, hopefully. Not after the film interpretations.

Or interpretation, I don't think we talk about Annihilation anymore.

Is it me that finds it weird signing off her own tweets with her name, when her username is literally right there?

It's just a shame the (presumably US-based) healthcare system is a clusterfuck, because that bit of expensive paper with a diagnosis on it would likely open up a whole host of avenues for exploration of the condition.

The internet has ruined me. The headline made me think there was a swastika-ticking brigade and a swastika-cleaning squad; or a "pool's closed" style griefing concerted effort; or a giant series of tickdicks.

This seems quite... nice in comparison. Good on you, internet.

I couldn't tell you about that firm, always willing to try new beers mind!

I know their headline grabbing antics are particularly bad, but having lived on their home patch for a wee while, they're not particularly well regarded as local neighbours either.

I know the following is absolutely subjective, but their beers are... alright? I wouldn't say no to one but I've neither the stomach not the wallet to go on the piss purely on Brewdog beers. Their food is lovely too but you almost have to speak with your mortgage adviser first to see if it's a bright idea.

I can't remember the last time I voluntarily went to Brewdog or bought a few of their tinnies either, outside of meeting there for a work's do or going there because visitors wanted to.

I have never known a company go from being "super cool" to "super prone to making themselves look like fannies" in such a short space of time. It's almost impressive.

Imagine being Drugovich or Crawford thinking "they must be getting sick of him by now" and boom, seat blocked for another two years. Gutted.

The waste is a fair point - storage isn't a long term solution but then I suppose it can be managed in the interim, not like the effects of climate change.

I'm not seeing your point of "nukes" though?

Nightdive's track record is stellar in fairness.

I've still got my PS1 copy of PO'ed and it hasn't aged well at all. I think the world was still clamouring for new and inventive Doom-clones at the time that people were willing to forgive clunky gameplay and unbalanced weapons, but this remaster will do it a whole load of favours.

Disruptor is another mediocre game that springs to mind, but was well received because it was the best-of-the-rest in what we now know to be first person shooters. That would be a cool remaster too - perhaps even Lifeforce Tenka, or even Sentient if they were feeling brave.
