  • I always wondered what the answer was but never got round to looking it up. I thought there’s no way it can be such a famous sentence and have the answer be that fucking stupid.

    Maybe in the 60s or sometime when gender norms were more strictly enforced it would have been good?


  • Last time I was in that situation was in the Turkish barber. He had a really really thick accent and I struggle parsing the spoken word at the best of times. Out of fear of potentially being viewed racist I just nodded and gave the man a thumbs up, assuming he was probably asking if the job was OK. He came back with a cottonball of kerosene or something, set it on fire and started waving it at my ear. Turns out “ear flame” is a real thing, and what was being offered.

    Motherfucker made me anxious sweat, then cast fireball “without warning”, and charged me an extra £8 for my troubles. I will forever rue the day.





  • I will never understand why Netflix or Spotify dont just chill out a little.

    Netflix can’t possibly get any bigger. Its available on basically every device to basically every economically active human on the planet. Its big enough that its used as a description of any streaming service. “Its basically Netflix but for books/anime/games/whatever”.

    At some point can you not just give it a rest? Or use the excess money to try and build a new business doing something else?
