Hahahaha. That’s brilliant :)

TIL that browsers show a number in the “:D box” if you don’t have enough tabs open.

About 20 years ago, there was an art/tech project for distributing Linux Source code by radio. Probably not very practical in reality, but a lovely concept.

Or caught by a mob and Gadaffied?

They’re mixing up their metric and imperial sizes. These are from Forgefix, which are a British company. Many British people aged about 55 and over tend to still use imperial sizes for some things.

So it’s not 6-8mm, but "the size of wall plug for 6-8 gauge screws, which are 3.5mm - 4mm screws in metric.

Strangely, if you buy a multipack of masonry bits, they give you 3, 4, 6, 8, 10mm bits. Some brands of wall plugs tend to use 5.5mm, 6.5mm, 7mm. It is a conspiracy!

Your options are:

1. Use a smaller drill bit and wiggle it, just a little bit
2. Use a larger drill bit and pack it out with a shim/matchstick/chopped off half-a-wallplug
3. Individually buy the masonry bits which correspond to the plugs
4. Buy a different brand of wall plug, which uses 6mm or 8mm bits

I know society expects me to dislike a macaroni cheese pizza, but that looks absolutely delicious.

Yeah, but how happy would you be to suddenly receive a:

“Hi, apologies for the delayed reply, it turns out I’m really bad at replying to messages. Anyway, I would absolutely love to meet up whenever suits you best - although I do understand you sent that message in 2006, and circumstances have likely changed…”

Hahahaha, he’s very high on the list :)

Obviously it depends who you’re talking to, or what about, but yeah. Constantly in some cases.

P.S. In case you weren’t aware, it means “a lady’s front bottom” in British English, rather than the arse, as it means in American English.

Nothing if the legislation was written properly.

Not good if the legislation was written badly.

It’s hard to put them into a 1st, 2nd, 3rd position.

What about Bum Farto?

Dick Trickle?

Or even Fanny Chmelar?

If you image search for the abbreviated form of “Gulf of America, This Space Exactly” (GOATSE), that should clearly show where the Gulf of America is.

It’s hard to tell. I hope somebody has left a trail of single notebook pages, diary pages and dictaphones scattered in various drawers and cupboards nearby.

This is really interesting, thank you :)

Yeah, but with “RFK Jr” in charge of everything medical, and Donald’s age, poor health and probable lack of a vagina, I don’t anticipate either the baby or the birthing-parent surviving childbirth.

So when we take the horrific pain, and 0% survival rate into account, perhaps it’s more of a "twisted and bleakly sadistic dream’ than a nightmare?

It’s obviously called WHKRWXD.

It’s still in use in Yorkshire too, though pretty rare.

Ah, so we can now use an automated robotic script to prove we’re human? :)

Please just give us physical mouse buttons as an option.
