Reply to comment by Gmonkey_ in [OC] The most common song titles in music by spicer2
I have two songs called “One” on my everyday playlist, one by Metallica and the other by Ghostface (both are considered classics for their respective artists, and are on albums that are also considered classics). I wonder if there’s any others.

Half the Japanese places where I live are owned and operated by Koreans. Could be one of those.

Pretty much all of my Guinness/alcohol consumption happened in my Muslim days. In the ten years that I haven’t been a Muslim, I’ve had about as much alcohol as I would in 6-8 months back in the day.

Which they regularly take advantage of. It’s almost like it’s human nature to want to engage in what’s forbidden, especially when it feels good.

I’m aware of that, having spent the first 2/3 of my life as a Muslim, most of it in arguably the most overtly religious, to the point of having an extremist majority, Muslim majority country on earth. Alcohol was always one phone call away, and you could get pretty much anything under the sun, whether you’re in a big city or a small town. Villagers dying or going blind from low quality moonshine was a common news story. That country was 96% Muslim.

Muslims drink too. Enough that most Muslim countries either have legalized alcohol (Turkey, Malaysia), thriving black markets (Pakistan, Iran), or both (UAE, Qatar).

New Zealand are the test champions. England are the ODI and T20 champions, which still feels weird even though England have been an OK team for about ten years now. I grew up in the 90s and 2000s when England were crappy to the point of being a meme. Got so used to it that it’s still weird to see them not sucking ten years later.

London isn’t nearly dense enough to be on this list. With a density of 5600/km, I’d be surprised if London’s even in the top 50.
