If you had 24 cans of pop delivered as part of your online shopping and one of the cans is burst would you expect the whole lot refunded or what?

Depends

Was it from a struggling local retailer or a massive supermarket?

The latter should refund it all and oh god it ruined my carpet!!!!

I'm considering going to a takeaway tomorrow and eating it in the park, because I'm fed up of my own cooking, I'm fed up of being inside and I just want to be somewhere different.

It's ocado. Obviously.

Their system allows for the refunded item to automatically be tracked back and a tiny black mark placed against not only the driver but any packing staff that handled that product before it reached me. Enough of these marks and they lose I dunno a bonus or eventually maybe even get fired.

I said forget about it. But I'm still twitching.

Eating takeaways outside is illegal. I dunno what you're supposed to do if like you're at work but have nowhere to eat your lunch?

It's a multipack can. That would probably fall foul of selling them individually?

Getting vaccinated tomorrow, and I also had COVID a month ago so my immune system is gonna be big and muscley and strong.

I wonder if getting vaccinated soon after actually having it is the same as getting two doses?

It actually undoes the vaccination and makes you a super spreader

Same with public toilets. All closed in our town most of the time. With all the local cafes and so forth open only for takeaways and with their toilets closed off, quite where delivery drivers and other outside essential workers are supposed to do their business and wash their hands, I don't know.

Technically it's illegal for restaurants to deny us use of their toilets as we count as staff or something. They get round this by just saying they're broken most of the time.

I've just gotten back into them because immortal hulk is absolutely, uh, incredible

I'm enjoying the current x men run although it does the x men thing where the story is actually spread over a zillion different comic series

This is it for me. I'm fortunate that I rarely suffer from insomnia, but it's been more common since lockdown began and I no longer go to the gym. It's much harder to motivate myself to workout at home, but if I go a few days without, I have terribly restless nights.

UPS are loving useless. Dad's bday tomorrow, ordered him some cider online last Monday. Original package was meant to turn up Wednesday but UPS damaged it so they returned it to the sender. A new package was sent Wednesday to turn up Friday but it's still not here. Couldn't get through on the phone, tried messaging their twitter this morning but they're still replying to people who tweeted them on Thursday/Friday so I doubt they'll get round to replying until it's too late (if they reply at all).
It's just turned up, this one's broken too. gently caress sake.
