Where has this been all my life?

I used to spray my kitchen tops and scrub like a madman only for nothing to happen. It was about as effective as water.

There was a minor improvement when I bought Mr Muscle degreaser but still not great.

Then I bought this cheap, Asda shit and leaving the spray on for 5 mins - boom!

It wipes clean, with the sponge!!

How has taken 40 fucking years for a decent kitchen surface cleaner too be made?

I've used Flash and the other ones with kitchens on the front but this non-descript bottle of bleach water is by far the best I've ever used.

What Have Fourteen Years of Conservative Rule Done to Britain?
  • Erm. Are you thinking of a different kind of conservative?

    Other than tradition none of those are traditionally Conservative.

    Living standards have fallen. The country is exhausted by constant drama. But the U.K. can’t move on from the Tories without facing up to the damage that has occurred.

    Report: UK Ranks Second-Worst Globally for Mental Health
  • I was about to say "I'm not surprised".

    I even thought the psychologist and psychiatrist I've seen the past couple of years look almost as miserable and exhausted as me.

    Terrible state this country seems to be in.

  • Oh no
  • That's awful but at least there's a tiny silver lining...

    However, Paticia Zebrowski, University of Iowa assistant professor of speech pathology and audiology notes that the data that resulted from the experiment is the "largest collection of scientific information" on the phenomenon of stuttering and that Johnson's work was the first to discuss the importance of the stutterer's thoughts, attitudes, beliefs, and feelings and continues to influence views on stuttering greatly.

  • Florida students allowed to talk about sexual orientation, gender identity after 'don't say gay' settlement
  • Section 28 in the UK which banned the "promotion" of homosexuality in schools fucked up a lot of kids in the 90s including me. Thankfully it was repealed.

    Don't let America go that route. You'll cause more harm by restricting discussion of sexuality.

    As a young teen I thought my attraction to my classmates meant I was a paedophile. It resulted in me cutting, burning and hitting myself whenever I wanked to anything gay as a form of 'DIY conversation therapy'.

    I still have the scars at 40 and I only properly came out as gay at 38 after years of self hate.

    All I would have needed is a person in authority like a teacher or parent to say "same sex attraction is normal" or "fancying your same sex mates doesn't make you a pedo - you may just be gay".

    I know it sounds fucking dumb to hear as an adult but as a confused, angsty, pubescent teen who grew up pre-internet* it made sense that I was perverted, evil and broken.

    *The internet doesn't necessarily make it easier for teens to confirm themselves. They could just as easily fall into the same mindset as me due to misinformation rather than ignorance.

  • NIИ song ID from rough lyric idea

    I remember a song by NIИ that says something like

    > You represent everything I don't want to be

    Obviously I've googled it but because it's not an exact quote I'm not finding the song.

    Anyone know which song has a lyric that says roughly the above?

    Most likely on fragile, downward spiral or with teeth.
