Been playing 7 a side for about 15 years now, it’s a permanent fixture of my week and I’d be lost without it. Takes me a lot longer to recover after games now but it’s well worth the hobbling around.

Stretch and bathe, boys. Stretch and bathe.
You used to be everything to me
Now you're tired of fighting
Holy shit, Julian Clary just died a horrific death on Channel 4.

Literally?
NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
Hopefully. He was never funny
Mud the far cuss...
So I got an apparently #decent pay rise this year. Nowhere near inflation, obviously, but better than I've had for a while.
Got paid on Friday and was excited to see how much difference it had made.
Turned out...pretty much bugger all.
Found my pay slip to check the details and noticed that one deduction had gone through the roof.
That looked like a mistake, I checked with a few colleagues and theirs hadn't changed.
So I queried it with HR.
Turns out there's a threshold above which you pay a higher percentage for your pension. And my pay rise took me just above that threshold.
But they take that percentage from the gross pay.
Which basically means if I earned a bit less and was still under the threshold then I'd actually end up with more money.
This, I would argue, is complete bullshit.
If I'd got a worse performance evaluation and thus a lower percent pay rise I'd still be under the threshold and actually be getting more in my pocket then I am now.
It is, as I may have mentioned, complete bullshit.
Wankers
It happened to me as well. It also reduced child benefit entitlement.
A few years ago, I was offered promotion. Would’ve affected child benefit, increased my pension contribution, reduced annual leave by 1.5 days and increased my hours by an equivalent of 8 days per annum.
And they were genuinely surprised when I said, “thanks, but no thanks”.
