Britain doesn't even look nice in the first place, so they really have no argument.
You live in London.
Unfortunately.
london is the arse end of the country
So what does that say for the rest of it?

First one was the CoD W@W forums. When the game began being invaded by hackers and the playercount was dropping, I tried organising game days in the hopes we could fill a lobby with only normal players.
I quietly backed out after the forums updated with Black Ops and the W@W ones got shutdown or hidden, started browsing The Flood and then others.

World of Tanks. You can hit a tank in a spot and do massive damage to it but even though the next shot is in the same spot it does nothing. I don't get what people find so fun about that game. The spotting mechanics and the RNG are shit.
I quite like it, but dear god the RNG sometimes decides to fuck everything up. I'd go into all the armour penetration stuff that is almost totally random, but then I'd just play artillery and stare blankly at how cruel it can be. You could be aimed in at a target, fire, and have it kill a team-mate because RNG decides the shell should veer off.

In The World's End, they drive the car through the pub called The Hole In The Wall, and in the next pub there's a gambling machine that's a reference to the start of the trilogy, Shawn of the Dead.

I like the story of how Giant's Causeway was formed: Finn McCool, an Irish Giant who was the smartest in the lands, was looking across to Scotland when he sees a giant over there. Being an arrogant fellow, he shouts across the waters to challenge him to a fight, but the giant doesn't reply. He shouts again, louder but he still ignores Finn. This enrages Finn, for how could someone ignore him?
He gets so mad that he starts grabbing chunks of the ground by his feet and packing it into hexagons, slamming them into the sea to construct a bridge to Scotland and the giant. He walks across and begins climbing a ledge to reach the giant and challenge him, but as he reaches the top he sees the giant sitting down, facing away from him.
This giant is fucking huge, at least 3-4 times bigger than Finn, so he freaks out and runs back across his bridge to his home. As he sprints across, he hears the giant following behind him. He bursts into his house and explains the situation to his wife. She concocts a plan to save him from being beat the shit out of, by telling him to lie down on the floor and put a tablecloth around his neck.
Just as he does this, the Scottish giant knocks on the door. Finn's wife answers, and the giant asks for Finn McCool to answer his challenge. Finn's wife explains that unfortunately Finn is out, but he'll be back soon, and in the mean time can wait inside. The giant accepts and walks in, noticing Finn with the tablecloth.
"That's my baby" Finn's wife explains. "He's just like his father, big and strong"
Finn plays along, gurgling, and probably shitting himself at the sight of the giant staring at him. The giant begins to re-think Finn's challenge. "If this is his baby, what size must HE be?"
As Finn's wife offers a drink to the giant while he waits, he makes excuses and hurredly leaves Finn's house. His jog becomes a full-on sprint by the time he reaches Finn's bridge and as he thunders down it, it collapses leaving only the parts on the coasts of Ireland and Scotland. In the giant's hurry he looses his shoe at the start of the bridge and Finn, again arrogant at his "victory", shouts over as the giant runs away, hurling boulders at him. So all that explains the hexagonal rocks at Scotland and Ireland, and the shoe-shaped rock at Giant's Causeway. Also, The salmon of knowledge is a good little story about why fish are good for your brain before science explained it properly, but it's far too late to write it now.

De-podded some broad beans for two hours, then grinded xp for tanks the rest of the day.

Until recently I haven't really been getting dreams at all... just blacking out, waking up. Then I had a dream, wrote down as many details as I could, and suddenly it's been dream-apalooza, and all... weird... ones...
If you are desperate for a dream, try that.

No need to "ensure stability" or "rebuild the region" or any of that. ISIS just needs to be eliminated.
This is literally the mentality that allowed ISIS to grow in the region.
"ISIS needs to be eliminated" is the mentality that allowed ISIS to grow?
Makes sense.
No, I'm talking about the mentality that we can eliminate a terrorist group and then just leave. It's just naive.
We can. It takes years, maybe even decades, for terrorist groups to get enough power to actually pose a threat to America. Who cares what's going on in the Middle East? We only need to deal with threats that affect us. Anything else is waste of our resources.
Ah, taking the stance of isolation. That's never come back to cause problems. has it?

Pretty fun. Kind of slow, though. I kind of wish it was more roguelike where you'd be replaying it numerous times instead of investing your time in a single decent vault.
Anyone have tips for getting caps without buying lunchboxes?
Always have someone out in the wasteland. It's not quite as dangerous as it may seem as long as they dont have a rusty .32 and a regular jumpsuit
Yeah, my guy died because I didn't pay attention to it at work and now I'm waiting to get 200 more caps, which is taking a very long time. It's been pretty stagnant around 15 dwellers. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong; everyone's happy, I have plenty of resources, but caps are so slow I can basically only make a single room per day.
Give one worker a weapon for each resource room (food, water, power), and keep rushing them. That way even if you fail it you're prepared for an incident. Also, do the special objective thingies. Some can be crap, but doing them allows them to be replaced by the ones that pay 200 caps.

Have people taken advantage of hydroturbines along tides and currents?
Seems like that would receive less complaints and maybe even generate a bit more energy.
They have/are in Swansea, and there was several plans and designs for one across the Severn Estuary. That one got scrapped though because it would cost something along the line of ~£10 Billion.

Splatter and track-trace effects on cars depending on environment.
GTA V comes to mind - drive on dust = dusty car, drive on mud = muddy car. Kicking mud/sand rather than having a wheel burnout.
Also, scope reflections.

I'd forgive a lot of things eventually, but I wouldn't forget. Give me a day and I would be ok, but I'd be aware of that person's actions in certain scenario.
That said, while thinking of examples I can't really think of anything seriously bad anyone's done to me (either people don't have the (lack of) heart to do something bad or I'm just sheltered, either or) so I can't be totally sure on this.

As horrifically inefficient as wind turbines are, I fucking hate NIMBY's. First they argue they run the view in the countryside, so the government puts them off the coast (where IIRC, they are far more expensive to put down, although slightly more energy is generated). Then, they complain that they ruin the view of the coast!! They're fucking miles away!
I'm with Meta on energy generation though, 6 Nuclear reactors can produce the same as 50,000 *consistently generating* turbines, and it's far easier to get 6 nuclear reactors built than several windfarms.

Say anything bad about women and you're bound to offend either a woman or a whiteknight.
Back it up with some facts, and you'll get a full on rage sometimes.
i.e. "Feminism is sexist" *insert source here*
Hell, there's a lot of material here to use if you need inspiration as it's bound to offend someone...

There ya go.I've only been playing for half an hour and so far I've already had a powercut, two radroach infestations,a fire and irradiated the entire residents. I'd be a great Overseer. Spoiler Sure, it's a phone game - not exactly a "game" but feck it, it's going here.

I think the joke is already dead if you need to explain it, (which who's fault that is depends on the joke or the person you tell it to) but you might as well explain it so it helps them next time.

Had a girlfriend for three months last year. Kinda fucked it up because I couldn't afford to do anything other than chill at my house, and it just fell apart. We're still friends but I feel awkward about it.

I guess it's a push to spread it as far wide as possible so that an actual video would be released.
There's a tonne of links on /r/Fallout from yesterday although they've probably been taken down by now.

Is this things like apprenticeships and HnD's? Because they are (or at least, were) covered already in Europe excluding the UK IIRC, and apprenticeships are paid (although badly from what little I've heard of them).
