    I think after 2008 or 09 I realised what a scam buying it every year was so and went down to every other until my last one, 2015.

    Christ seeing that list of games on Blobby 48 is a nostalgia overload.
    Wasn't 97/98 one you could install and then you didn't even need the disc?

    I've got 12 to 23 in the Steam library along with five Touch versions I didn't realise were there. One year I got it 'free' along with every Sega game available on Steam so I've got a big old list of things I've never given a look at. I assume you can't pass on games you haven't started but if you can, anyone who fancies 10 Warhammer games that all appear to be the same is in luck.

    You can do family share. Basically you swap login credentials and login to each others account on your own respective computers, activate Family Share, then log back into your own account and you can play each others games forever (but not at the same time), is how I understand it.

    Me and @Mike are gonna set it up soon. My Steam library has 339 games in.
    I'm a twit

    Discord.

    I've changed phone and obviously forgotten the password to my account. I did set up SMS recovery thankfully so I use that. Sends me a code to enter. I enter the code and error, we've now sent you an email with a link to click. I go via that and it gets me to the point of inputting the code again. Invalid code, please use one of your 2FA backup codes.
    No big deal, I've still access to the desktop version so they must be in there. Ah yes there's a button to view the codes there so I click it.

    Please enter password to view them...

    I have health insurance through work. Because we're a fairly early stage startup, it only got set up at the start of this month.

    My shoulder's been sore recently so I was going to go see a physio. I realised instead of paying for it out of my own pocket I could probably get it through the health insurance. So I submitted a claim last week. Apparently because it was so close to the start date of the insurance, they need me to get my GP to sign a form to essentially prove it's not a pre-existing condition. Of course they do, the shyster fucks.

    So I called my GP surgery about ten minutes ago to book an appointment. I'll have to print out the form and take it to him to get him to fill it in so I'll have to take a half day off work and go there (my GP is still back home as I never changed to one in Belfast because you have to wait about a month for an appointment in Belfast). But I can't get an appointment straight off back home these days anyway. You have to have a call with the doctor first. Fine, whatever. But then on the phone I'm told I'll have to call back in the morning because all the phone calls are booked for today. "That's okay, it doesn't have to be this afternoon, can you just book me in for a call tomorrow?", I ask. "No, we can't do that." What? You can't book me in for a fucking phone call tomorrow? I'm pretty sure you fucking could, you useless cunts.

    So now I have to call tomorrow morning to sit on hold for god knows how long to be able to speak to the GP on the phone tomorrow afternoon at some point instead of them just taking a fucking booking now.

    What is this kafkaesque bullshit.

    It'd be easier to just go to the physio directly and pay for it myself but I don't want to let the insurance cunts get out of paying.

    The icing on the cake will be the cheeky cunts will have already adjusted your next premium even if you don't claim now.

    A claim generally won’t kick your premium in the same way car insurance or something does anyway.

    Prob a good thing on balance, but I think I'm gonna have to knock drinking completely on the head. I'd always had intermittent bouts of Asian flush when I drank certain things/too much, but I've been getting full tomato face after half a can recently, with associated itchiness and generally feeling washed out and headaches and shit.

    I wouldn't even vote for the current iteration of the Labour party if I had a vote in a constituency where they stand so I don't think there's any danger of me voting for the tories in my lifetime.

    Somehow ended up following this absolute sket from cov on Snapchat years ago, and I love her stories where she's just talking about the 5 black men she shagged that week and talking about booking hotels to do loads of coke with her friends etc. Well I genuinely accidentally screenshoted with my drunk fat fingers while she was shaking her fat arse and got a shit load of voice notes shouting at me, as I tried and failed to convince her that I genuinely just mushed the keys by mistake.

    To clarify, I don't think she's more of a sket cus she shags black men, it's just that she's one of those weird fetishising weirdos. She's basically

    I honestly have no idea. When she was talking about getting the bags in for her and her mate to get fucked up she posted a screenshot of the hotel booking confirmation, including her full name and the hotel name and room etc. I'm willing to consider that's she's just a bit of an idiot, and I speak with real authority on being an idiot.

    Forget the stuffing for a moment, a chicken roasted with a Marmite glaze is tremendous, so I imagine it's similarly good with your Vegemite.

    All those names can fuck off tbh, male or female. (Assuming they're actually called Charlie instead of Charles, if it's actually Charles that can stay.)

    Irish people don't get an opinion on names until they stop making up catfish names like "Sheblinoi" and lolling when people don't realise it's pronounced "Kate".

    Give me a name in most languages which use the PROPER alphabet and I can make a good stab at pronouncing it correctly.

    Irish they are just nonsense.

    Tell your lot to sort themselves out Boydy. I'm not having it.

    Celtic languages are quite cool. They branched off on their own early doors and kept to themselves. We kept getting invaded so we've got all the Scandinavian/Romance/Latin influences.

    Do you speak Irish? I work with a few lads from Donegal and they speak it amongst each other. It's pretty rare, as a first language particularly, isn't it?

    There's no v or y or z or w (maybe a few others too), hence common combinations such as bh and mh.

    I studied until the age of 18, but have never had to put it into practice since then.
