And the U.K. is just full of bad vibes as it is.
Preach!!

standard glass sizes are easier to pour, store and wash in the machine. Pubs do everything based on efficiency, it's not difficult to see why everything is standardised

It never used to be just about efficiency, and it’s not just efficiency that’s resulted in them not serving people with glass-mugs anymore. There’s a wack argument out there that they’re inherently dangerous and that blokes get fighting easier with them than with regular pint glasses.

People conflating introversion with being highly sensitive. For every delicate, anime-like INFP figure renowned for sensitivity there’s a cold, characteristically insensitive, cuttingly antisocial INTJ (and a moderately well-rounded INFJ with a knack for human psychology and solitude but also reasonable amounts of external stimulation caught in the middle to boot). The extreme poles of hyper-sensitivity and coldness can be mutually present in the same person, or it might be one or the other. That’s one of the reasons why I don’t like to say too much about just-plain social introversion and extroversion without referencing broader personality frameworks (like MBTI), because the meaning for both is too subjective and vague and you could be talking about two completely different kinds of people. One’s a stereotypical chess-maverick or egoistical mastermind with a penchant for conspiracy-theories, the other’s an accommodating and well-wishing but ‘stick to the sidelines’ kind of calm person who prefers to socialise quietly and in moderation and the other’s the sensitive, delicate, cuddly poet or counsellor who’s part of the “are we trying to code HSP as female/sensitive male autism (as-opposed to the stereotypical male-dominated ASD) or are we inherently not pathologising this and seeing it as its own distinct personality which overlaps onto introversion without fail” squad. And so-on. Outer social demeanour is just one side to a personality. Few people are ever just quiet or just loud.

…there’s probably lots of sites but the one I use is Tunefund…(…just because I’m familiar with navigating the layout etc…)…but you’ll be able to get every track from a movie/series soundtrack…and (..I think…)..it might list the scene as well that the track plays in, so it’s easier to find…I’m not sure about that bit, though …so you might have to scroll through other songs from the soundtrack…that doesn’t take long, though …because each one is only a few seconds of the song…anyway, Shazam will become an antiquated old fool once you discover Tunefund….

…if that’s what works for you and you’re generally able to find your tune quickly etc…?…then that’s all good…but in terms of what CeeCee described and you don’t have enough of the tune to Shazam…?…then Tunefund is a great site, it’s my go to…
