I only know about opiates, was always tidying up, mopping etc on codeine. Unfortunate suboxone makes me sleepy all the time unless recently reduced like from 10-8 it actually felt like codeine but only for a few weeks then it wears off

I think I 'd be scared to try stims, no offence, I've read up on them years ago, in Google n I'd hate all those come downs.

If opies make you manically clean, stims would have you cleaning parts of your house you didn't know existed. I don't clean on stims, strictly music and masturbation.
 
It's a work thing at the moment as the only hotels available where i am were to expensive so i went for the house, i actually prefer it and it works out cheaper. Nice house it is to. 6 bedroom new build, flat screens everywhere, wifi and what not and a kitchen so i can actaully make a meal instead of rotating my tedious diet betwixt Subway, KFC and Weatherspoons..

It may become a home thing to, its complicated 8)

Enjoy your TV, Xans and sleeps <3

Im off to work :\
 
Wetherspoons. What a shit corporation that is. I was speaking to some people the other day who ran a local pub and had decent profit. But wetherspoons opened in the town, undercut all the local businesses with their cheap beer and put them out of business. They buy end of the barrel shite, sell it off cheap and destroy towns and local businesses who can't compete on price.
 
You cant just blame weatherspoons for putting them out of business. Not everyone goes where the cheap booze is, what are you talking 30p difference? A lot of old pubs are just very shit, with a massive amount of dirty old pervs, that treat women like shit, not really nice places to chill. . They need to move with the times, and offer maybe more than just booze. All the good boozers around my way are still open, and are busy, because they are good boozers. Weatherspoons are fucking wankers though, great ethics to open a boozer at a motorway service station.

Yeah how terrible setting up shop and selling stuff to people cheaper then someone else. Wetherspoons have never made a secret of how they operate regarding purchasing their stock, IME their food is basic but also cheap, it's not like they oput their prices back up when the competition has fallen.

I've some experience of the managed pub market although is a few years out of date now but many pubs are actually owned by organisations such as the Spirit Group, Green King, Punch ect they just have multiple branding.

I'm not defending big business, I think what you're describing is much the same effect we have seen with the supermarket chains. People have become less willing to 'assume the position' and some businesses have recognised that and developed their business model to operate at a lower retail price. They arent doing this out of the goodness of their hearts they just happen to have read to public 'mood' better then others.

If the concern is over independent businesses, just like big business they have the opportunity to develop their business for the prevailing market. I don;t know where you live but with reference to pub/restaurants I've seen plenty of independents do very well by going up market rather then try to compete on price.
 
Ugh I am starting to despise suboxone n regret ever taking that shit, seriously. Every morning I'm in withdrawal until I take my dose of the stuff. No one warned me of this. Hang on, some people did but I didn't listen n thought I knew best. Thought it was this miracle drug that would solve all my problems but its prelonged them.

Evey morning i wake up; back stiff, knees aching, hot-cold n geuinely not feeling right until i take it. Really i should put this in the recovery thread.

As far as small business losing out to big business it's not so clear-cut.

My parents worked hard in a small business. They lobbied hard to stop a large business coming in the area, thinking they'd be ruined. But once it came, they weren't. They were just as thriving as ever. The first week impacted them yes as people were nosey but after that no.

My mams a hard worker only had christmas day off for 20 years. They made that business. They took time to greet the customers; take groceries to old people who weren't able to get out of their houses n all sorts.

They've sold it now as they wanted a life which I don't blame them after so long grafting. But their business was as busy as ever. A few died yes - but they were extremely expensive n why would people pay £1.50 when they can pay a quid?

Talking of pervs, I am on a massive stim wankathon, and you know on porn tubes its like a 3min clip, and the url in the bottom so you go on the site. Well I signed up for a day for £2, expecting to watch it all but just for a day, not one fucking video was available to trial members. At this stage there was no stopping me, my hand and my penis, so, Ive actually just paid for porn. £30 for a month. It is in HD and its pretty fucking good.
 
Ah, stim wankathons. How I miss them. :D

Second only to the manic wankathon, which I also miss. Course, there's always stim / manic sex too, but that's never quite the same and it usually (but by no means always) carries bullshit baggage and complications with it.

You could say that about anything. Its good to have views and opinions on stuff, and who gives a fuck if you agree or disagree.

Yes you're right. It doesn't matter if people agree or disagree. An opinion is an opinion. We all differ in them n that's what makes people / life / forums, exciting. Differences in opinions n discussions on them.

Good to see you back here, anyway. Hope all is well :)

Fact is Wetherspoons is the only place, not knowing the pub, you can be sure to walk into one and get a decent range of beers/ciders at around the £2 - £3 mark (not just pissy lager/strongbow). A lot of old independent pubs, especially in the south, are too lazy to look after anything other than carbonated crap, and then sell it at outrageous prices. It's no surprise they can't compete.

The food's not too bad too - went there on Sunday and got a roast and a Kronenbourg for £5 (so effectively the roast was £2) - not the best I've ever had, but decent enough. I've had people invite me round their house and then ask for a lot more money for 10X worse (admittedly stingy, skanky people whom I no longer associate with).
 
Went to weatherspoons with my parents for their anniversary n had nice meal. I had lasagne n staff couldn't be more friendly. Used to go with ex all the time we'd have buy bogoff meal n get drunk on real ales - which were lovely n strong. One real ale, called 12-days, was 11%.

Wetherspoons are very good at what they do, a no frills boozer. As spud said you can walk in and be almost guaranteed a decent pint.

Too many people wrapped in in eating wasabi peas and playing cluedo while drinking a bloody mary with a massive stick of celery poking out of the glass.
 
You can't beat Witherspoon's for value , we have the 2 meals for a £5 most days , and you can't get a fry up for £3 any where else ,like somone just said £ 3 a pint now days is unheard of.
I went in a pub In highbury on saterday got 40p change out of a £ 10 for 2 pints.
