It's an entire genre of cultural output. It's fair enough if it's not your thing but a bit silly to just dismiss it as crap.
I personally am a massive fan of going to the pub
Fair, but it would likely take me a lifetime to find one I found tasted passable particularly with wine which is more rank than beer, particularly when smelt second hand. There's definitely a big dose of personal taste though, I've found that as the years have passed each year I get less interested in alchohol and have vastly less patience for being around drinkers.

I mean, it's all personal taste, for sure. But even if you don't 'get it', there is definitely something to 'get', if that makes sense? I don't like sports - find them boring to watch. But I appreciate that there's something I fundamentally don't 'get' about the whole experience which other people totally do, so I don't pass judgement on it.

Yep, it's why I aimed for the puzzled thread. In my head it's like how people love smoking but they don't ask for a cigarette flavoured vape. I went out every weekend for a few years drinking and it was fine, you get used to it but I think that was always the rub for me, the need to get used to it. Well, except for Cheeky Vimto's but that's probably the least surprising element

I honestly do not understand how the past decade or so has gone sooooo fast whereas the previous 2 decades seemed to never end. These current years are so much nicer and yet they are going too fast! Seems unfair :-D

So, you have a traffic monitoring car at the side of the road with a speed camera in it watching for cars breaking the speed limit.
If that traffic monitoring car begins to reverse, does the on board speed camera still record the correct speed of passing vehicles or does it distort the result to misrepresent other vehicles as travelling faster than they actually are?

This put Wet Wet Wet's Love is All Around in my head which almost overtook it to become the second longest running UK No.1 ever despite being the weaker record. That led me to read that it was knocked off number one by the release of Wigfield's Saturday Night
Man - That feels like a lifetime ago
