'Pay to remove ads' is such an awful insidious now common phrase. Give us money or else we'll do this to you. If you don't pay us, we will control your experience. We will force ourselves upon you unless you meet our demands. Modern day protection racket.

@TheBreadmonkey Most of the time it really means “pay to stop us tracking and profiling you for ads” which is horrendous. I’m a lot more relaxed with the idea of being shown generic ads than targeted ads.

Again, I’m convinced that the ads don’t actually work to make people buy things and that this whole industry’s business case is built on sand.

Pearl & Dean, where are you when we need you?

I miss knowing there’s an excellent curry house, minutes from the cinema.

@blabberlicious @TheBreadmonkey papa papa papa papapa papa papa papa papa… PA!

rofl the ALT text bot has grabbed the text strip in the middle of the card that says "BRITISH BOARD OF FILM CENSORS" over and over

@calcius @TheBreadmonkey @Nickiquote @blabberlicious Huh. Almost as if "AI" doesn't work or something.

@blabberlicious @Nickiquote @TheBreadmonkey P&D are still around, though for some reason the Curry houses stopped advertising at the pictures

I live in Tooting, where the film Stars advertise in the Windows of the curry houses.

Pearl and Dean don’t get a look in.

@blabberlicious @davidbcohen @TheBreadmonkey Amazing.

The cocktails are wicked (literally)

Restaurant Trend-watch:
1) Fiercely illuminated tables made of perspex
2) Water cascading down walls
3) Gold Bling
4) Jeoff Koons Knock off Statues (see pic)*

* Haven't the courage to mention some of Koons' other 'artworks'. Don't want to lose my curry mile discount.

This lad had to put up a 1000 piece chandelier, because the entrance was looking too underdressed.

I went back yesterday and he still hadn't finished.

Really annoyed, I had another window with Sadiq Khan, which I can’t find. His quote was spectacularly low key. Something like:

"I always get the Kachori"
- Sadiq Khan - London Mayor

Dam you Statham, and you obsequious plaudits. Get a grip, man.

The longest word in that ad is 7 letters. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

@stevegis_ssg @blabberlicious @Nickiquote @TheBreadmonkey The Statham normally just talks with kicks and punches, that’s why.

@davidbcohen @stevegis_ssg @blabberlicious @Nickiquote @TheBreadmonkey He'll punch you in the throat, much like the Jalfrezi at Spice Village.
