Epic fail

Outside magazine reports that a team of seven cyclists have ridden 3,300 miles non-stop from San Francisco to Alaska. One said that "they weren't doing it for accolades or fame". They're not even professional athletes! Chapeau!

They took turns to ride on their own for 24 hours. Then they'd get in the support van for six days. https://watch.outsideonline.com/shorts/3,300-miles-to-go-or-yeehaw-donkey/xa80SUra?scope=anon

Aging people thinking it was better in their day shocker.

Nuance ignored on the way to clutching at the chance to fashionably hang shit shocker.

Music is better than ever, I said.

You know what else has improved over the years? Capitalist arseholes doing capitalism.

I bought, grew and planted catnip, Nepeta caparia, as a way to discourage cats from certain parts of my garden.

Did you misunderstand your partner telling you "we need to nip this in the bud"?

I bought, grew and planted catnip

Might as well ask the court to take into consideration your abuse of cat milk.

FFS!

This is becoming a regular occurrence.

14mm ≠ 14cm

This is why I used https://www.accu.co.uk/

What did you want, M5 x 140?

M50 x 140mm?

I want to fit bar end mirrors to my motorcycle and the insert of the existing bar weights are stuck. They use M5. The mirrors use M8 (I think).

Rather than dealing with the headache of getting them out and replacing with the mirror inserts I'm just going to use them with a replacement torx M5.

This is an excellent website!

Honestly, the stuff is expensive, but you get precisely what you order, in whatever quantity you want.

I mean I'm sure the ebay seller would have sent the right thing if I'd chosen it.

A +1 for Accu.

They're awesome; shipping is super quick and they have every conceivable fixing.

My washing machine has a child lock. Great, it disables every button and function…except for off 🤦

Dammit

An England football fan who had "Euro Winners" tattooed on his leg before the final says he will not cover it up and has no regrets.

Dan Thomas, from Swindon in Wiltshire, received a tattoo of the Henri Delaunay Cup and the words "England Euro 2024 Winners" ahead of the final that England went on to lose 2-1 against Spain on Sunday.

Every time there’s an international tournament some belter does this.
It’s not like the tattoo will cost more if you wait until after it’s come home.

At least the bloke who got the photo-realistic farage tattoos investment has finally paid off :/

William Rees-Mogg?

Anne Widdecombe tramp stamp.

You just love making a challenging wank even more difficult, don't you!?

Not exactly epic but man I hate this shit.
