Also you'd have to be a millionaire to afford a place that size in London.

Admittedly that's only a translation conceit. Things are probably better in Norway.

We had that song in English five hundred years ago.

(This is a cover. Burl Ives is not five hundred years old.)

Oh, nice. I tried looking if the song had an English equivalent but couldn't find much. This is close but the lyrics go in a bit different direction: the mouse said she had promised to wed a mole to which the frog replied by pointing out that he's no good, he even has mud between his toes. Later the mouse demonstrated that "women will always be women" by marrying a bush cricket instead - he apparently charmed her with his violin skills. By this point the frog didn't even notice the mud between the mole's toes anymore.

Some might say it's a lesson about how finding faults in people isn't nice, but it turns out that some people thought it meant the frog and the mole hooked up instead. I suppose that works too.

This is so dumb because cultural fit absolutely is important.

We just had a very qualified manager who moved halfway across the country for the job. She lasted two weeks before she quit because she hated the culture of the company and the culture of the region (East Coast to Mid-South if you are wondering).
No, "culture fit" shouldn't replace skills but it drat well should be considered.

I got really, really tired of the previous font, A.C.M.E. Secret Agent. The font required tweaking every time to make it look decent and I never really even liked it in the first place, but it was the closest to the original handwriting. Trying out Clementine for now, at least it's easier to read and use.

I was curious, so I looked it up and Elle Macpherson was the on the cover in 1988. I'd forgotten she looked like that in the 80s :swoon:

Anyway, long story short she's successfully run her own international business for the past twenty years, has two children and speaks three or four languages, so don't be a sexist dick and call people "bimbettes" just because they have the good fortune of looking like Elle Macpherson. (1987! :eyepop:)
