    Mr Bowman thought about making a curated shopping list more than a decade ago after he found a “vaguely amusing” receipt which read “hair gel, hair gel, newspaper”.

    Proper mad lad there.

      Speaking of, it’s a shame we don’t have an r/madlads community here. The one on sh.itjust.works seems to be about corn? It’s also dead.

          The idea of being a mod fills me with anxiety tbh. I also don’t have enough material to fuel it. I’m extremely bad at posting.

            I’ve been a mod of casualuk and got one report over the last few months because somebody posted a legitimate link to Chinese social media which two people mistook for spam

            There’s nothing much to it and Admins get reports too so we can keep an eye on things.

            I also don’t have enough material to fuel it.

            Just checked out r/madlads and there looks to be plenty of it out there.

            Practice makes perfect.

              Responsibility like that makes me uncomfortable and I’m trying to keep my Lemmy experience a positive distraction rather than a burden. It’s why I also mostly stay out of news and politics subs.

              Well sure, but I don’t necessarily want to be just stealing people’s content from Reddit.

              Practice makes perfect.

              Look I am trying. I’ve made some posts lately!

              …At least I try my best to comment a lot.

    I would have used one of the handheld scanners, that way you can see what everything is scanning as as you go round. The ones in Sainsbury’s show all the cancelled items though, so you’d still need to be careful. Not sure whether the ones in Asda do.
