I've had this for about a week now after a long time of saving up and quite a while of waiting to get my tentacles on it

This is the Sinn 556 I MoP S, it's one of Sinn's entry level models but it really is excessively nice

Fit and finish is excellent, the movement is running well within COSC standards, and the dial is fucking stunning whenever it catches the light

Any pictures I take just don't do it justice, it's just beautiful

ENGLAND: literally the only country where, when given large amounts of opiates, we think to ourselves "let's trade all this for tea"

I personally think that the Ladies' Watch prize should have gone to Moritz Grossman, Men's Watch to Vacheron Constantin, Men's Complication to H. Moser et Cie., Jewellery Watch to Bvlgari, and Artistic Crafts to Vacheron Constantin but I'm not on the judging panel

Man in charge of brexit shocked to discover that England is on a fucking island

im OCTOPUS!

My sister has somehow managed to get a second degree burn from a hot water bottle

She's absolutely fine but how the hell do you get a second degree burn from a hot water bottle of all things?

Even the burns consultant hadn't seen any injuries like that from a hot water bottle before

I'm pretty sure at this point that I've alienated the right-wing enough that if I tell people to go vote then they're going to decide not to out of pure spite leaving only people who'd vote democrat

If that's not the case then free abortions for everyone, healthcare is a human right, violence is a perfectly fine way to fight nazis, and Reagan can suck it

Go vote

New antifa meta is gritty flinging weaponised potatoes at nazis

Oh, apparently gab is back

And it just goes to prove, the squire of the high pot and noose is equal to the sum of the squires of the other two sides.
