Fish tanks
Why is it whenever I see a fish tank in a chav window or for sale on gumtree it is under-filled
Say tank is 60cm deep, it always seems to have around 40cm of fill
One would assume evaporation but surely you’d counter that in your weekly / daily maintenance
The fish drink it ?Why is it whenever I see a fish tank in a chav window or for sale on gumtree it is under-filled

Mine drops a little between maintenance but its minimal, council involves realising that an hour a week is too much like hard work carrying buckets and scrubbing so it ends up like a stinking swamp in the corner of the room. Then ends up on Facebook marketplace but in reality its now worthless.

Costco.
Words fail me.
There's been a huge decline in the quality of shoppers and items available in recent years as they moved away from an exclusive members club system for powerfully built directors, doctors and people in the legal industry to just rocking up to call centres or the High St, popping up a gazebo and then letting any old rotter join that has the £25 for a membership. Words fail me.
It's still feels like an exclusive boutique compared to Makro though.

Was the fella involved massively into cars in real life, or just in the films? 
Driving on a space-saver or spare steel wheel for any journey in excess of the one from the location where it was fitted, to the garage to get the shagged tyre repaired/replaced.
It's quite telling of an owner, when looking at a used car and lifting the boot floor up to find the spare wheel covered in baked-on brown brake dust where it's clearly been fitted for months.

I don't know how they do it. I recently had to use the one on my Jag to go a couple of miles and it made the car feel unstable at best.It's quite telling of an owner, when looking at a used car and lifting the boot floor up to find the spare wheel covered in baked-on brown brake dust where it's clearly been fitted for months.

Similar to when you view a second hand car and there is bottle of water and coolant hanging about in the rear footwells It's quite telling of an owner, when looking at a used car and lifting the boot floor up to find the spare wheel covered in baked-on brown brake dust where it's clearly been fitted for months.

"Dude I almost had you" isn't a Paul Walker quote, its from his character Brian O'Connor. Neither is he known to have said "One last ride"The crowning glory of mis-quoted Paul Walker stickers is the "If one day speed kills me, don't cry, because I was smiling". He never said that either.
I had a random car park in one of our private company spaces at work a few years ago adorned with a "Dude I almost had you - Paul Walker" sticker.
I stuck some masking tape underneath it with "You never even had your car - Vin Diesel" scrawled on.

I had a friend at work: say about 2005: bought an M3 replica. £20k bank loan !!
When he popped a tyre it was running on a space saver for about 3 mths as he couldn’t afford them.
Thing is he was counting from Blackburn to Bradford and back each day. Not great !
Many of the young “forex traders” on here have been seen around Southampton for months on end on the space saverWhen he popped a tyre it was running on a space saver for about 3 mths as he couldn’t afford them.

Bonus points for the continually lit low fuel light, tpms, EML
too busy pretending they are minted than actually being minted
