The chocolate digestive is a marvellous a biscuit but is a tad to indulgent for every day dunking. 

 

 biscuits are meant to be indulgent!

Well yeah there are two types of biscuit eaters. Those who treat themselves to a single biscuit once in a while and then rap the packet up in cling film for the next time, and the normal people who start off with three and then in a frenzy of calories half the packet disappears.

Are you trying to tell me that all the people in the world who eat biscuits cannot be placed in two rather specific and arbitrary categories?

Fixed it for you...

 

Or would that classify as fatass and not normal?

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

Well... Have to buy more biscuits then...

 

In all honesty, I have no idea about that "tradition" you have in England. I apologize for my ignorance.

Half the packet? I have no idea what that even means. If I buy a packet of biscuits I intend to eat them. All of them. In one go.

People just like to eat delicious stuff... Whether fat or not (or alternatively fast metabolism... Can't get fat no matter how hard I try... :P)

At least you don't have gipsies almost everywhere :D

Or our president.

Or being 2nd world country

Or having really crap economics.

 

 

But yeah,most of your points only create discomfort,the rest are simply pointless(boring food,really?).You can live with those easily.

Hey,be thankful you aren't poor and that you can live happily,even if the people around you drink tea(really...what's wrong with tea?).

 

I've visited quite a lot of countries(France,Italy,Sweden,The Netherlands, etc.) and I still like Romania more than anything else.Italy felt very close Romania :D

I am pretty slim and I really eat a lot... but I don´t pass 68 - 70 kg, and sometimes that makes me happy.

Where do you live now?

 

Just outside North London, place called Potters Bar, it's nice it's fairly grassy so it's not bad just too close to London for me.

 

Really?

You are the only person with self control, I only stop when the packet is empty =[

Why I get 150mb fibre optic

A lot of places, I mean a lot still cant get good speed not to mention BT like to crush any competion that provides better speeds. I was supposed to get fibre start of this year but I didnt, instead the village a mile from me got it when they where getting it the end of the year, and we can only get BT (who like to increase the charges any way they can without us noticing).

The UK fibre roll out for rural England was not handled well at all though and BT holds too much control over the whole thing. Not to mention it's not like this in every country, Netherlands can provide gigabit internet in some areas. Max here is around 300mb/s if you are lucky enough to live in the right area!

Where do you live?

 

 

Oh is it that bad? 

South Africa, the biggest problem we face here is BEE (black economical empowerment) and AA (affirmative action), which is essentially, Apartheid in reverse if you think about it. It's supposed to 'endorse the black people for their suffering they faced', bullshit, I was 2 years old when Apartheid ended (1994~), the fuck do I have to suffer for what some idiots did way back when just because I'm white? 

 

That being said, it could be worse, I could be living in Zimbabwe...
