The beauty of evolution. If it works, it works. Whatever they have been doing for so long is working.

I never watched it. I remember other kids at school talking about it, but I never watched it. Kind of wished I did now.

I was actually measuring my desk today as I want to fit a draw under it.

This should be the test all millionaires and billionaires have to take yearly. If they fail, they are no longer fit to own or lead a business.

Oh I like that. Until I saw the price.

75% here too. I want a full size back. Tired of having a separate numpad. Waiting till this one gets old then switching back.

Most birds are extremely light and efficient. Their bones have evolved to be light weight to help with this. Some species even fly in a V formation to conserve energy.

Evolution doesn’t mean get better or smarter. It just means the species can survive and keep reproducing. Emperor Penguins in Antarctica for example, where they nest in a place where there are no predators. It seems insane the hardship and their silly walk which takes forever. But it works.

I’ve never heard of a wood louse being called a pill bug before.

I buy used cars. I had an X-Trial I bought 8 years ago for £2000. It lasted 7 years. I did basic maintenance myself like brakes, oil, etc. on the end the flywheel needed replacing. To the scrap it went. Bit 2k for 7 years!

I was so excited when this game was released as I was a massive fan of Total Annihilation.

I’ve never seen that before. That’s a good feature.

You have a very long phone

Sumfin. How’s how we say it.

They must have glands. Unless they have milk for blood.

PICNIC. Problem in chair, not in computer.

I have hifiman Sundara and KZ ZS10. Both excellent and great value.

You’re not wrong but I realised my niece doesn’t have that level of responsibility. If there’s a smelly bin she’ll just expect her mum to sort it out or disappear so she doesn’t have to deal with it.

My sister once asked if I could help with the kitchen sink in her house as it was blocked. I started taking waste pipes off and quickly realised there’s a bunch of sardines stuck in one pipe. Her 15 year old daughter had shoved fish down the waste pipe of the sink rather than putting them in the bin. I still can’t understand the logic in her head. Surely it’s more difficult to push fish through the small holes at the bottom of the sink than it is to take 2 steps towards the bin.

My wife is Asian and we live in the UK. Quite often when we meet people who instead of simply asking “what sort of job do you do” they ask things like “Do you work in the NHS”, “Are you a nurse”, “Do you work in a care home”.

Some random person outside a shop asked me how much my Asian bride costs.

My wife and son were getting off a bus and somebody asked her how much would she sell her son for.

Probably a bunch more but that’s all that comes to mind atm.

Flashing lights. I have to try that now.

Years ago me and my sister walked through our newly built town centre together. They had installed bright white stone on the ground and both of us couldn’t stop sneezing (sunny day, stone reflects sun back up). It’s not as shiny now it’s not new but I hate walking through that area to this day.
