A wonderfully succinct explanation of why I decided - whilst still at university - that academia was not the path for me...

Why? A material change was made to the item after the point of import. This would be like taxing a timber importer as though they were importing furniture.

Carmageddon is a game that I loved at the time, and am very hesitant to revisit... I suspect it hasn't aged well!

Bandcamp link here - one of my all-time favourite VG soundtracks. Never heard anything like it before or since!

I use FedEx for work, and our account has heavily discounted rates for Priority services - not for Economy. That's what I assumed was happening here, until I saw that you were dealing with them as John Q Public.

I doubt that the incinerator was big enough, and that's what the "icky specifics" covers...

There are plenty of shows "about" subjects that you really don't need to have any interest in to enjoy, because the show is actually about the characters. Like Succession, is any knowledge about or passion for corporate takeovers necessary? In Ted Lasso, the sport is there to motivate the characters, and is only very occasionally on screen.

Sorry, I've Got No Head - a kids show, but has a lot of familiar faces (if you watch British comedy).
