    My partner admitted being in debt yesterday

    Hardly the end of the world. Look at it from her perspective. Did she not tell you because of shame, for example? If so, why would she possibly feel the need to hide debt from you? Your reaction here might be a clue. Tackle it together. Especially if it's some idiotic Brighthouse style loan...

    How are energy drinks legal?

    I'm a fan of the Monster "Ultra" range (the sugar free ones), but only really in the sense of an occasional treat drink for the flavour. I don't get much of an energetic effect from them; certainly no buzzing or jitters etc. Then again, I'm pretty much the same with coffee. All it really does is...

    Neighours delibrately making noise

    Not sure of the specifics, but it should definitely involve poop.

    Uber eats do you ever tip

    When I'm in the US, yes. In the UK, no. I'm glad to come back home because like Inferno says, it's bloody mental over there. Actually stresses me out, lol.

    Will Smith hits Chris Rock on Oscars stage

    Does seem rather funny that this occurs while we're "culturally" embroiled in over-sensitive pushback against edgy comedy. Remember "Punch a Nazi" (Read: Feel free to physically assault anyone of even the most milquetoast conservative viewpoint)? I'd expect the new attitude to grow from this...

    Has anyone become Irish? (Or other EU Nationality)

    Northern Irish here so got both. Britain's mutts win the day.

    Do you power off your PC?

    Mine doubles as a media server, so it's always on.

    blackmail email

    This is an old one by now. Continue to enjoy an enormous amount of pleasure to your weird porn, you freak. Ignore the email.

    Alec Baldwin fatally shoots woman with prop gun on movie set

    Yeah, quite devastating if it is. I honestly feel terrible for everyone involved. If he was just clowning for a moment on a happy set and this is the result... man, it must be eating him alive right now. I'd assume it is regardless of how it happened. Such a sad event.

    Alec Baldwin fatally shoots woman with prop gun on movie set

    Rumour at the moment is it actually happened in between takes. Director and DP asked him to do another take and he joked "Why don't I just shoot you both?" and fired the gun, not expecting anything to happen. Entirely a rumour, though.

    Self employed. Internet marketing and course host.

    Anyone else have Irish Heritage in the family?

    Being Irish, the answer would be "yes", lol.

    How life pans out

    Sounds like going along with that expected structure of a "successful life" wasn't what he actually wanted at all. Sad that someone else had to pay for his failure to take control. No sympathy for him whatsoever.

    Derek Chauvin murder trial (Police officer who arrested George Floyd)

    Again, totally irrelevant. The duty of care matters. Police family, dude. I've heard it all (including hilarious stories from the other side, such as somebody's partner having a Chinese meal thrown in their face so that the other officer thought they'd been burned with oil when they saw the...

    Derek Chauvin murder trial (Police officer who arrested George Floyd)

    I mean, I'm happy to wait for his explanation but it looks like he's a walking poster child for the horseshoe theory. Just without knowing it.

    Derek Chauvin murder trial (Police officer who arrested George Floyd)

    This is close to irrelevant. "You can talk fine" isn't a measured response from someone in a position of assumed care (felon or not) when the other person expresses cardiac distress. It's made doubly negligent when you bring up the point of Floyd saying he couldn't breathe *before* the neck...

    Derek Chauvin murder trial (Police officer who arrested George Floyd)

    I don't get this at all, sorry. Have to comment, as someone with much-missed dead on both sides of the NI conflict. Are you saying left-wing terrorism *must* therefore be right wing because the left doesn't "do" fundamentalism or authoritarian violence?
