    Random Jabber Jibber thread

    Seen similar arguments back in Scotland, county/regional/national "government" all arguing about things in an area whose total population would barely be enough to class as "small city" in your neck of the woods. Now that's what you call wasting money...

    Random Jabber Jibber thread

    The old "we don't get enough money from the county/state/DC to pay our excessive salaries, expense accounts AND fix the roads" excuse? Same everywhere, big snouts need big troughs.

    Of course it does, the patch expands and contracts at different speeds than the road, it doesn't bind properly with the old surface, water gets in behind it, add heating and cooling plus effects from the patch not being bedded in as well as the old road surface leading to more cracks, etc...

    Had it happen here in Belgium, we had a heatwave and the road expanded more than the expansion joints allowed, one piece buckled up a couple of inches and people suddenly ended up with wrecked wheels and suspension when they hit it at 70mph.

    Naah, Belgian roads don't need excessive heat to fall apart, they're pretty much always a wreck.

    What did you accomplish today?

    Have managed to survive another day, just an evening and night to go and it's a day without dying. Yeah, not much happening here...

    Now that commercial marijuana is readily available...

    It is what they say happened in Holland, the uptake in smoking weed by teenagers is lower than in many other countries, iirc, because decriminalization meant the same "thrill" of doing something naughty isn't there, they like to say they made weed "boring"

    Thoughts on the Zeus 308 board?

    Maybe not about 308's, but definitely about the cheap Chinese boards, which is why I crossed wires https://www.rollitup.org/t/order-fake-lm561cs-from-alibaba.957345/ But that's not the thread I meant, sure it was linked to on GC, made oi larf it did.

    Thoughts on the Zeus 308 board?

    You meaning the thread on GC, because I mean here on RIU and your bit about "first time these boards have been seen here". Or I'm just confused, I'm getting old, you see.

    Thoughts on the Zeus 308 board?

    No, I'm sure there's a thread on them that turned into a proper bitch fest, especially with some thinking they were EXACTLY the same as the original HLG QB's because the AliBaba vendors used HLG pictures. Sure someone tried them, turned out to be a mix of "colours" and not a uniform kelvin...

    Thoughts on the Zeus 308 board?

    There will be a Brexit on paper, but the reality is nothing will really change except the level of paperwork and the amount of money the UK sends to Brussels. Except for people like me, I'll get a "new status" which will mean a new ID card at an increased price due to adding my details to...

    The thing is, it's the sort of thing that could actually have ended up being realistic as more and more shit about the Catholic Church and it's shenanigans in various countries surfaces, the latest one being yet another one in Spain during the times of Franco. Like with the "charities" and...

    OK, I'll put it to rest once and for all. ' The so-called court involved, the ICLCJ, is the creation of a single Canadian Megaloonspud who has a bit of history as far as loonspuddery is concerned. Maybe he feels left out because he was so ugly even the most depraved priest wouldn't touch him.

    Big news for Texas legalization!

    And that is something new where religion and/or polutics (not a typo) is concerned because.... And that's just the wives, never mind the poluticians and preachers themselves.

    Big news for Texas legalization!

    That's why I say the chances are that if anything happens it will be delegated to individual States, with the Federal side of things controlling the interstate distribution. Just what is ideal for a non-career politician, the chance to put that hot potato into the hands of someone else, let...

    Lumpy feeling in throat!!!

    Your body is saying it doesn't like the smoke, your throat and lungs are being irritated by the smoke so the throat closes a bit to restrict the intake of what it doesn't want, but not enough to choke you. Find another way to use for a while, edibles or vaping as an example, so your throat and...
