Forgot to reply to this but if you want a real depressing UK accent check out Brummies, messing folks from Birmingham. Another level of depressed!

Work for a broadcaster in the UK in one of the back office support roles. We can all work from home for 2 or 3 days every week and the other 2 or 3 in the office.

It was initially ‘suggested’ post-Covid but from January it will be mandatory to do it as people were not sticking to the suggested days.

Here’s a few:

  • Our national animal is a Unicorn
  • We are oddly proud of our tap water being drinkable
  • We have nearly 800 islands
  • The saltire (our flag) is the oldest in the world allegedly, from 8th century
  • Despite being part of the bigger country of United Kingdom, Scotland has its own entirely separate legal and education systems.

Genuine question here from a place of interest, what do you count as a British Accent? Is there like an actor or someone with an example?

I’m Scottish and for such a wee country (meaning both Scotland and also the UK) we have such a wide variety of accents I am always interested when someone says ‘British Accent’ as the difference between south Wales to Newcastle to Essex to Aberdeen are chalk and cheese to me.

Dark Side is such a good album. Great Gig in the Sky never resonated with me as a kid but now it’s a whole different story.

A valid point but I played about the same amount of CP then waited til it was all done three years later before doing another, much more thorough and patient playthrough. Have done a similar thing here and will wait a fair amount of time before diving back in.

I sunk about 50 hours in but have decided to wait for mods to make the game more as it should have been like I did with Cyberpunk though CDPR at least fixed it themselves without relying on the modders.

I used to go to Reddit daily via Apollo and came over during the migration but not quite enough memes here and on Squabblr to keep me going. What other apps or sites aren’t just reposts?

 

The Tibetan fox for me has a permanent ‘done with this shit’ look that I love.
