Failed Imagineer posted:I was disappointed to learn that the trivia of Attenborough being responsible for tennis balls being yellow was more of a factoid - apparently he suggested it but it didn't get traction for some years and Wimbledon didn't adopt it til the 80s iirc I think this is the first time I've seen someone use the word 'factoid' correctly, I can't smugly correct you!

Jaeluni Asjil posted:Update on mother: plod went round this morning and after taking a statement asked if she wanted to (a) do nothing (b) have them go caution the guy , or (c) go to court. I mean if I was his wife I'd certainly want to know about my husband showing his genitals to an elderly woman. Otoh I can understand this could be overly distressing for your Mum and there shall be fallout but that's totally on him for being an awful human, either way I hope she feels a bit safer now.

therattle posted:One of the horrible elements of incidents like this is that the fallout affects people other than the perp, including the victim. Yeah totally, sorry I didn't mean to downplay this it's a serious consideration and for all I know his wife might defend him as can and does happen.

therattle posted:It’s fine, my comment wasn’t aimed at you and I wasn’t suggesting you’d downplayed it. It never crossed my mind. It was just the general point that it’s unfair that the repercussions are not limited to the offender. Ah, I was just projecting it's what I was thinking about my comments, I do it tooooo often

Honestly, people wearing a mask on the chin or covering just the mouth is the thing to get annoyed about. I can't tell if these people are are stupid or simply don't care (it's both isn't it). If there is no mask on at all I'll assume they can't wear one and go about my normal every day anxieties.

It's me I'm the DX7 synth with literally nothing plugged in (and the power cable was moulded in to those things so it might even just be the case).

I have two jars of homemade piccalilli in my fridge that have been there for over a year now and I've never opened/tasted them because I'm too scared that'll die doing so. They aren't mouldy though so I must have done the picking process right I guess.

Inexplicable Humblebrag posted:Gove had noticed subtle changes in Johnson's behaviours since the leadership had come into his possession. These changes made Gove extremely horny, especially the way he would always have his fingers wrapped around the leadership. Gove wondered what those soft hands would feel around his member. It kept him up all night, most nights, if he did fall asleep, he would dream of Johnson and his magic hands. But tonight was different, tonight he was going to feed his desire, the fire inside him.. He wanted to surprise Johnson tonight. Read aloud by Gilbert Gottfried.

Leasehold is dumb and stupid. I am privileged enough to have afforded my own wee one bedroom flat and being on the top floor I have sole access to the loft except due to the leasehold I don't have 'right of way' to that space as I only have 'right of way' to the flat itself. I mean I throw all my old consoles up anyway who's going to know, also thinking about making my own wine up there.
