For some reason when I look at this link on my phone I can see the tweets that claimed he deleted his account, with pictures of how @NHride could not be found, but clicking on this from my computer I can't find poo poo. I hate twitter.

Either way, he deffo still has that account. Perhaps it just went down temporarily or was hidden? Is that a thing that happens with twitter?

Yea I assume you can kill your twitter and resurrect it again, like p much any social media account. Nobody ever deletes anything, they just hide it from public view until you log in again.

Hooray - I'm glad it made it. I've heard back from you and one other who forgot which thread this all went down in. Hopefully all 10 people I sent packages to will post their opinions and a photo. I should have made that a rule, but with any luck people will be nice enough to do that anyway.

So is the broken jar part of it? Do Aussies like ants and broken lifesavers?

I guess I really don't understand Australian snacks :v:

Still excited to try the chocolate pineapple lumps, Gromit. They were fully sealed so no ants on them. Thank you!

I'm really sorry you got such a bad result (especially for what it cost to send!) and I can't imagine what that package had to suffer through to break open a roll of hard candy. Is the jar cracked or did the lid just inexplicably come off?

My lid was off and the candies were crushed. Still ate some of em because gently caress it. Pineapple lumps were amazing and I need to find a way to get more. Lifesavers were an oddity. I don't hate em but I don't necessarily like em. Haven't had the vegemite yet.

Still though thanks! A- package would order again.

Lid came off at some point in the journey. Long enough for ants to find it and be fruitful and multiply. It's too bad, but I appreciate your effort and expense!

I had a couple pieces of the pineapple chunks, and holy moley! I can only have two pieces at a time, since it's so chewy. I enjoyed it. It really reminds me of a particular candy we have here. I think I'll coat one in chocolate and send it to you to see what you think, as long as you don't mind something pseudo-home made, wrapped in wax and zip-locked.

No problem - send away! I anticipate getting trolled to eat laxative chocolate. It'll taste the same as that American chocolate anyway :v:

e: Maybe the package was opened by customs to sample it and were just the standard assholes about it and couldn't be bothered taping a lid shut?

No one cares if their quarter pounder is fresh.

I wish McDonalds would just stop trying. Their big complicated menu is a mess. The other day I went in and ordered 2 McDoubles from the kiosk and it took 7 minutes for my order to be called. 7 minutes! Seriously? Just bring back the heat lamps already. Heat lamps were great. During a rush the cooks could make a dozen identical burgers at a time, shove them into the warm red glow, and when you'd have your order in like 2 minutes, tops.

I went to McDonalds for the first time in forever cause my daughter is finally old enough to eat there and I wanted to let her burn off some energy on the indoor playground cause it's cold as poo poo outside. I went to order and wanted to study the menu but the menu was on these giant tv screens now and it kept moving around and switching to ads and poo poo like a loving Harry Potter movie. gently caress that and gently caress McDonalds, I just got her a chicken nugget happy meal and a 10 piece for me.

I hate those things. What the gently caress, Mcdonalds?




These things are great. You can focus on the part of the menu you are interested in like just burgers, just sides, just drinks, etc. The print is big enough and close enough that you don't need to squint even as your eyes fail with middle age myopia. And you can stare at it for as long as you want without the pressure of anyone waiting for you to make up your mind. They are fantastic.

Apparently the CEO did it out of spite, but they are the best change to Mcdonalds in years. https://www.forbes.com/sites/realsp...e/#72fc3a1a4fbc

In fairness to McDonald's, it's because they don't want you actually coming inside the restaurant. They already do 75% of their business through​ the drive-thru, and they'd be quite happy to increase that to 100%, and completely​ eliminate the inside service.
