I did a similar thing. I was talking to my friend through my headphones as I was getting ready to leave the house and put my phone in my hoodie pocket. Then I put my rain coat over my hoodie and left. 5 minutes later I freaked out when I couldn't find my phone in my rain coat pocket. My friend reassured me that I must have it because I was still talking to her but I didn't remember what I'd done until I took my rain coat off. Was a weird experience and one that made me realise how dependent I was on my phone.

The Kunts - Prince Andrew Is A Sweaty Nonce

As this song asks, why did Prince Andrew (or ultimately the British tax payer) pay Virginia Giuffre £12m if he didn't do anything?

How long until Microsoft gets accused of stealing classified info?

I'm from the UK and also have 25 days of paid leave with national holidays on top, totalling 32 days this year. I'm going to use 6 of them so I get the two weeks around Christmas off.

I don't think communism is a moneyless system. Pretty sure people paid money for things in the USSR. Have there been any communist countries without money?

Yea generally, no real need for them

Yea I think its likely it happened there as the speed was given in kph, we still mostly use mph in the UK and I could be wrong as I'm not a parent but I'm not aware of "school buses" really being a thing here. We didn't have them when I was a kid outside of coach services being brought in for school trips but that was quite some time ago.

 

I mean they're not all super rich but especially in the USA and especially with actors or TV personalities it seems like the well known ones make huge amounts of money. Just picking people at random and doing some searching online, apparently Scott Bakula got paid $120,000 for each episode of NCIS: New Orleans he was in which totalled over $18 million. Some sources say that Sarah Sherman, who's been on SNL for 3 seasons, is worth around $4 million. Why do they get paid huge amounts of money when most people, even if they're at the top of their industry, make a fraction of that?
