Just like the millions (Discord, 2023) of people who use Discord daily, I quite like it. It reminds me of the old IRC days or chat rooms where people would talk about random topics until the big ball of plasma could no longer be seen. I fondly remember forums with myself running Just a Community and the same thing would happen with people talking about random topics. You might be wondering why I bring this up as surely Discord is just a replacement for those and technology changes and moves on.
Rants
This section of Tweaked for your Pleasure has the many different rants I have posted over the years. Just a bit of light-hearted reading!
It is only 80p
It is sad how often I will order a takeaway and something will be missing. Sometimes it will be some chicken that is missing, a bottle or drink or even something as simple as missing cheese which is something that pisses me off. I placed an order at the one single takeaway that delivers to … Read more
Why e-bike laws are stupid
When it comes to the United Kingdom there is a ton wrong with it which mostly boils down to the shittest corrupted politicians we have had in a long while but one set of laws that is dumb and needs discussing is e-bike laws.

I have had one of the weirdest experiences and I can’t help but wonder if people just feel much more entitled nowadays compared to many years ago. Setting the scene I was visiting the CO-OP in a local village near me and I took my electric bike (Sheng Milo MX02S: My Review) to get some exercise. It was a nice warm summer day and when I arrived I locked up the bike and put the alarm on and wandered inside.
While I won’t bore you with what I bought, it is worth commenting for this story that the CO-OP has two small tables and a bench just outside where people can sit down and rest for a bit and this is naturally what I wanted to do. The benches are positioned right next to where the bike storage is and walking over where I noticed a woman and a young boy pulling on my bike with the child sitting on my bike.
125cc is enough!
Depending on when I publish this article on Tweaked for your Pleasure you may, or may not, know that I bought my brother an electric scooter that is equal to a 125cc engine and I used it for a month so I could also do a review on here and I learnt something from it today.

However, there is a growing problem in the world of Final Fantasy XIV that is starting to have a significant impact on the game and its players. That problem is cheating.
