That looks like a freaking rally car! 17 year old me would have loved it!

Do tridents have a “cutting edge”? It’s more of a “stabby end”.

And about time too!

Parenting. I get so overwhelmed by my kids.

I would have said Birmingham area myself. Doesn’t help that the accent makes them all sound thick as shit.

Urk has such a reputation! I’m an expat and even I know of it!

My employer gives us a commuting payment based on the distance from home to work (paid per km) on days we go to the office. We get an additional €60 a month to cover our working from home costs.

This might be the one for me for now. Just trying to import my subs (google takeout takes forever)!

I could, but a combination of ADHD and addictive personality makes it really hard for me. I'm also the tech person in the house so it's really hard for me to implement hard blocks that I don't know how to get around!

I actually did this a couple of years back with my wife :D

As a parent myself I often have to pause my kids internet because modern games and social media are addictive. I tell my kids it’s time to get off (because bed time, family activity, meals, etc etc) and they’re stuck in that “just one more” mind set. They can’t see that they’re addicted and we need some way to break the connection. We give them 30 minute warnings and remind them all the way down to zero and they still won’t shut down. If the parents are enforcing public usage it’s likely because the kid has been caught behaving inappropriately in private.

To the OP, maybe instead of trying to get around your parents rules, listen to them and understand why. Show some responsibility and they might start to trust you.

Culture starts at the top. Set a good example. Send people home when they are sick. If you don’t enforce your culture people will make up their own.
