I watch the battleship new jersey museum youtube channel and I learned that apparently, compartments in the ship with only one way in or out, are called glory holes, because if the ship starts to sink and you're in one, you get all the glory. Given sailors I am suspicious of this etymology but it still is funny when the curator calls them that.

In the hazardous materials thread I casually referred to “ramsneck tape” which is a common name on ships for a thick wide black marine tape often used as a backup seal for cargo hold hatches. Whole thread googled it and apparently the closest result was related to ram castrations. Here’s another esoteric marine securing term for y’all. Tommed down.

Whybird posted:I always think it's easier to explain Banach-Tarski as "you can describe five 3d shapes which, arranged one way, fit together to make a solid sphere, and arranged another way, fit together to make two such spheres." The description of cutting a sphere up is cute to mathematicians but misleading to nonmathematicians because it suggests the kind of shape that you can physically cut.

Y'all ain't never taken a drunk piss before? gently caress, me wife has ta take the Fairy to the mirror after a right toss pisser wit me and the lads. We done split a bottle of Boone's and soon Nigel is hangin half his arse outta his Dockers and raging on about Yu-Gi-Oh and 'ow much we wants ter send bojo to te 'shadow realm.' Next thing I know, I'm in the bog with me mate Rod and he's like 'yer too pissed mate, let me aim the arty for ye.' But I ain't that pissed and Rod's hands is warm right? and he served in 'er Majesty's Marines, so he's got some idea rite?' Anyway, the seal broke an off I goes right? fer a second, it's hitten porcelein, but then Rod, e's all like 'oh, y've got a thicken' and I'm all shacken m' head like ' what you on y'tosser' Rob's all like 'Shhh mate, I'm more sober than ye, trust the system' But I'm all like 'I know the system you nonce,get yer mits off me tackle!' But Rob, he keeps laughing, and the seals broke, so I keep goin. Rob is unsteady and cackling like a Danish tourist on Fireworks night and soon I'm pissin on my shoes and most everywhere but the lou. Finally I'm done. The ground is soaked, me trousers is done fer and Rob has a massive smile equaled only by the bulge in his pants. 'What the gently caress Rob?'I exclaim while trying to regain some dignity. 'Some cheeky Nando's yeah?' he replies. A dozen years later, in my Chelsea flat with my wife and newborn daughter, I look back on that night. and realize why I could never climax without the thought of that delicious peri-peri chicken....
