@NostalgiaPro Micro Machines V3 always gets overlooked but in my book it’s one of the most adrenaline-pumping games ever made.
Could also name a few other games that we in my top 10… such as Worms or Super Puzzle Fighter 😎

Most people rank PS1 games based on pure, unearned nostalgia, pristine jewel case counts, or 30 year old review scores from magazines that don't hold up today.
They build these safe, predictable top 10 lists that look exactly the same because they are afraid to challenge the established consensus.
This list is going to completely break the brains of traditional purists who think critical acclaim equals elite design, but it is the only accurate evaluation of what actually made this hardware legendary.

@Overlordmainst1 @Benleo Probably scared of getting taken away by the SS (Starmer’s Stormtroopers) for voicing his opinion
English
@Benleo A bid cowardly. The guy didn't want to speak to her until he was safe inside his large van, ready for a quick getaway. He should grow a pair.

@ClumsyPilot @guy_herbert @peterrhague So if I approach a traffic signal controlled junction where the lights have just changed to green in a car at 30mph, I have the right to ram the cars already waiting or just moving off?!
English
@guy_herbert @peterrhague He is not undertaking, he is continuing straight and he should be able to do that undisturbed as you would in a car.
it’s responsibility of the turning vehicles not to hit anyone
English
“Yield to us, despite having priority in this situation, or we might kill you”
Yes, cyclists can be annoying and self righteous. But in this situation the cyclist is 100% right and the driver 100% wrong.
I drive in Cambridge. You have to know how to turn left properly there.

In the face of serious injury or death, it’s amazing how their sense of entitlement outweighs their common sense. 🤦🏼♂️🚴♀️
English
@peterrhague 1. You don’t turn left from an ahead only lane.
2. You wouldn’t turn left from lane 2 or 3.
3. Changing lanes is not the same as turning into a junction.
English
All those motorists convinced that they can cross a cyclists path whenever they choose to and the bike has to just stop; I’m dying to know how you would turn left from the right lane at this often busy road near Cambridge station. Do you get to ignore the car lane too?
English
Question for everybody...
If you had to pick one thing as the largest contributor to the sorry state the UK finds itself in, what would it be?
Josh Hunt@iAmJoshHunt
At some point, you have to ask the question, what on earth has broken so badly? Why are we failing to deliver on such a catastrophic scale in this country?
English
@defencewithac @cammyk_67 @deloreancars No - you’ve read it wrong. It is vehicles turning in general. This is why there is a sentence that starts ‘if you are intending…’
If it was just for cyclists turning left then it wouldn’t mention vehicles turning out of the junction as they’d be no danger to you.
English
@cammyk_67 @deloreancars Which applies if you're turning left, hence why the rule is called 'turning'. If however you're going onwards: Rule 76
Going straight ahead. If you are going straight ahead at a junction, you have priority over traffic waiting to turn into or out of the side road.
English
This is the driver's fault, but I think we have reached the point where the law needs to be amended. The idea that a cyclist can just ride up the inside of a turning car and expect it to give way is stupid and inconsistent with how other road users work.

@CarizmaJon @Redd_Spark @InsideLucysHead Still half of the US and UK…
And a lot of their UPF will be instant noodles / ramen 🍜
English
@Redd_Spark @InsideLucysHead Japan is up there on that one.
English
The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans...
The French eat a lot of fat and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans.
The Japanese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans.
The Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans.
The Germans drink a lot of beers and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans.
Conclusion:
Eat and drink what you like.
Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

@Redd_Spark @InsideLucysHead Oops! Just posted the same thing!
Great minds think alike 😉

@FrankBr05713205 I still don’t get electric handbrakes / parking brakes
English
As a longtime automotive technician, I have noticed through the years that almost every time manufacturers come up with new and improved it ends up costing the car owner more money. Here is one example. A simple thermostat, which served us fine for years has now been replaced with a water control valve that is actuated by the car’s computer. So we went from a part that cost around $15 to one that now is $250 and up.

@thomwatson @PolitlcsUK @billcurtis0 Why not just go back to building high rise flats - it’s the communist way!
English
@PolitlcsUK @billcurtis0 They should get rid of gardens too. You could easily get another house instead of a garden. Each house could be 50cm away from the next, I’m sure air can still get in.
English
🚨 NEW: The Government has told housing developers to allocate less land for individual household car parking so more houses can be built

@pacer142 @JayneShannon Everything you have written in this thread is wrong.
English
@JayneShannon @culturalisms2 In effect you do. If you don't remortgage at the end of your deal you get put on the lender's SVR which is swingeingly high in most cases. A remortgage is assessed just as per a new mortgage. Thus if you no longer meet the terms you will in practice have to sell.
English
That is, quite literally, what happens to people who have mortgages.
Dusky Moko@DuskyMoko
People who have mortgages should be reassessed for that mortgage every five years and if they wouldn't qualify they have to sell that house and buy a house they can afford. See, I can make up stupid shit to make people's living situations more precarious too.

The midwife we had after our first was awful - to the point of evil.
Wife was in pain from bleeding out on the bathroom floor due to retained products and the midwife (on the phone) said ‘oh it’s because she’s a new mum and not used to it’ 😡
That’s only one example of shocking NHS care over three births…
…but TBF, the community midwife and health visitor for our second and third were excellent.

Does anyone else have a reusable bag at home that’s somehow filled with even more reusable bags?

‘Everton That’ v ‘Spursy’ - It’ll be interesting to see which shit force is most potent

@jim_keoghan Immovable object vs Unstoppable force writ large

@TheBetterKnower @FrailSkeleton I don’t think hemochromatosis causes thick blood? Although it might explain why they use a huge gauge needle during venesections.
Being dehydrated definitely causes thick blood though 😅

@Fiat__Justitia The greatest trick the Left ever pulled was convincing the UK they didn’t exist
English
In the United Kingdom, we’ve managed to achieve communism for 95% of the population.
If you have kids, unless you earn more than £80,000 gross, you have the same quality of life as those on benefits.
And the government managed it without a revolution.
Incredible really.
