So plastic is made from oil, right? And oil is made from Dinosaurs. So we’re just surrounded by Dinosaurs. Even micro-Dino’s.

Is this their revenge?

This is absolutely true. My former employer (a big box retail company) reduced my pay while I was on holiday. I had been there for years and accrued a bunch of pay rises - but the company got bought out and the new owners thought they could strip me of these because they felt they were temporary and non-contractual.

I got some legal advice that basically said they can’t do that sort of thing and had a meeting scheduled with HR. I went in with my notepad, I stayed calm - pleasent even - no angry shouting or slamming tables with fists, I just politely asked them questions and wrote down everything they said, then read their answers back to them to confirm thats what they said. I had about 6 questions prepared and by the 4th they were visibly uncomfortable, it was an amazing feeling making them squirm like that. After I got done asking my questions, I dropped the legal advice I had been given on them and it was obvious the answers they gave supported my case very heavily. They panicked and reversed all there decesion plus I got back-pay.

But if the first thing I had done is charge in making accusations and quoting the law I know nothing constructive would have happened.

See the goal is to bury them in their own words.

Edit: predictably the company went bust the next year. So long Office Outlet!

Hello Metal Detectors perhaps you can help me: I’m into all sorts of music and I’ve listened to modern day metal.

What confuses me is that Led Zeppelin has also been described as Metal and Heavy Metal. I listened to Led Zeppelin 4 and it has accoustic folk songs on it.

So I guess my question is when did todays metal start to sound like metal? Is there any connective tissue with Metal in the late '60s / early '70s and now?

One?!

You mean one from (almost) every year right? With the average scores from Rate Your Music for comparison? I never leave the house without mine.

…sorry for the wall of text.

I don’t watch TV all that much anymore, I don’t know where to start so I just wait for something to ‘blow-up’ and be something everyone talks about then I’ll know what to do.

I work full time so normally after work I just fall down the youtube wormhole so my shout-out goes to Red Letter Media out of all that.

The only TV on my to-do list currently is ‘Barry’ and ‘Silo’

I am 40 and ready to die.

So its half accurate.
