Because how else am I going to get those deep creases out of my blouses!

Thing is, that's exactly how you do it as a capitalist.

Compartmentalise your businesses and ensure they're registered so as to never come after your personal assets should they go bust.

Then, if the business fails and goes bust, shut it down, sack everyone, and a week later reopen in the same place with a slightly different name and rehire most of the same staff under the new company.

The new company is not in any way legally connected to the old one, and the one one's debts are to be handled whatever administration firm took all that over, etc.

I've seen it happen first hand here in the UK, good example of why capitalists are scumbags that are above our laws.

If nothing else it'll make a decent bit of filler before something better like Firefly Season 2 comes out!

You sound like a hoopy frood that knows where his towel is

Ahh, old hanging balls, gotchya xD

Yeah the medium of text can be tricky to convey meaning sometimes, I'm a pretty sarcastic person (gotta love using humour to cope with every situation, so healthy...) with a very deadpan kinda delivery on a lot of it, so I often find myself wondering if my intent came across well over text. Tricky indeed.

Anyway you're cool, and thanks for taking the time to reply so thoughtfully :-)

Now, I'm going to go back to being drenched in a cold sweat! It seems that's today's COVID symptom roulette wheel choice! 💦☉_☉💦

This is such a David thing to say, ho ho, you japester!

Good point, it's hard to build up a media presence and an audience when you're such a short little one and done thing.

So lovely though :-) I might try to get my friends to watch it with me this spooky season

[–] obinice 1 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Oh yeah, forgot about those! I enjoyed the boys and invincible a lot, I never got around to watching wheel of time, I will eventually, but I've heard nothing particularly good (or that it's middling at best) so I've shoved it to the back of my to watch list.

[–] obinice 1 points 2 days ago

Oooh so there's actually much more to it than meets the eye! Damn. Thanks for taking the time to explain :-)

I bet this information will be mixed with my COVID fever dreams and is going to remain lodged in my brain as core knowledge somehow forever :P

Bangers and splash is a good guess! I suppose we may never know 😁

[–] obinice 11 points 2 days ago (4 children)

I know it's just me being thick, but what's the play on words here? Sausage and mash on a flood.... Bangers and mash on a wet motorway....

I'm missing the gag xD

That show was great, I know it wasn't exactly the next Gravity Falls or whatever but did it not have at least a decent pile of fans?

Given how good it was, I can only imagine it's because most people don't know it exists.

Hello fellow Boosters! :-D

Apologies if I'm missing something obvious here, 😅 I saved a comment I'd like to go back to the other day but don't recall exactly what it was (darn my poor ADHD memory), and so I wanted to scroll through my saved/favourited comments to find it.

When I go to the "Saved" tab it lets me scroll through saved posts, but I can't find any way to switch to scrolling through saved comments, so I'm not sure how I'd go about finding them?

Thanks!
