Someone recently told me that this wasn’t a sign of poverty, then doubled down.
- I hope that "somebody" got roundly bullied.
objectively the worst country in the world
- I dunno, we’re only a step behind the USA but…actually no, fuck them both. This place is a shit hole and the foothold Reform are gaining is terrifying.
  
  you can resolve this contradiction by accepting that the uk is part of the us, and is not an independent state
  
  at least in the usa there's guns and legal weed and enough wilderness and wasteland to disappear into
Eh?
Every greggs i've ever been to has been a behind-the-counter setup, you go to the till and tell them what you want then they hand them over.
- every greggs has like shelfs of cold stuff in packets (think 4 cold sausage rolls)
  
  I've only really seen a drinks fridge? Sometimes has crap sarnies in it.
Really? Because I was in a Greggs the other day and didn’t see a fucking thing.
