Are they matte black? Seems to be the thing these days but I think itā€™ll age quickly. Itā€™s a classic steel for me any day.

donā€™t have any friends so this doesnā€™ apply

Covid however has conversely made me desperately aware that I donā€™t have any friends so going to at least make an effort to change this when things open up here in about 14 years time.

No, my landlady chose it and it has some weird attachment thing like I work in a backwash in a pie shop.

I love the matt Black but exactly the same thinking as you. Anything trendy I stay well clear of.

Genuinely thank you for asking :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Thatā€™s only going to get people asking you about cycling and day trips and best cycling experience! Youā€™re terrible at being dull, Epimer, you fascinating enigma of a person!

Iā€™m a bit concerned that now Iā€™ve had the perfect opportunity not to socialise for over a yearā€¦ maybe I wonā€™t ever bother again?

reconnected with a very old mate from sixth form online recently, who I thought was so fucking cool - got me into a load of ambient and electronic stuff-and now theyā€™re even more cool and are a hugely talented 3d designer, and iā€™m like:

I need to pick out a new kitchen tap actually. Also a new kitchen sink. I know I want a composite granite one but when I looked at them in real life there were nice ones and rubbish plasticky looking ones and there was no correlation with price, so Iā€™m not buying sight unseen.

That was the same day that I learned that the industrial estate my workplace is on has four (4) kitchen places on it. Which is still not exciting as the lightbulb shop.

You see,

Oh, flexible tap pipe situation, good for washing up? Quite like the idea of them and never made the industrial kitchen connection so vividly. Tell you what I donā€™t like is those knobs that have all the bobbled bits on them, like itā€™s a circle in the middle and then four sort of rounded prongs around it. Donā€™t like those at all.

Got two weeks of annual leave this month. Going to pull out the all time big guns for answering the ā€œwhat did you get up to?ā€ questions when Iā€™m back: ā€œI recorded this instrumental guitar album in my bedroom. Here is the link. Let me know that you think.ā€

Basically you can go in with literally any lightbulb and say ā€œI need one like this, but one that worksā€ and the sullen man will barely fucking look at thing, go into the back, and return with exactly the right lightbulb every time. He might be the lightbulb whisperer.
