octoperson,

There’s no copyright date on this one. If it’s the normal 80’s/early 90’s I wonder how many readers would have known what a futon was

octoperson,

Universe collapses into a black hole made of uncles

octoperson,

Your original intent was to not need to replace tyres. If you still need to replace other parts just as often, you haven’t really improved on the problem.

octoperson,

Depends if you’re testing a mad hypothesis

octoperson,

Aha! But you won’t be affected until time restarts. And since time has stopped for presumably the whole universe, nothing can happen to restart it.

octoperson,

I’ve just realised why that stuff always tastes like plastic

octoperson,

Bunch of people ain’t getting curly hair!

octoperson,

You could rewrite your greatest hits and republish somewhere you don’t mind showing them. Take the approach of a student just changing enough so they’re unlikely to get caught plagiarising their sources.

octoperson,

Well yeah you need a cover story. You can’t just call it “vomity shit fuck burger”

octoperson,

Thought of another! I don’t have opportunity to go there anyway, cos they’re not in my country, but I always thought In-N-Out Burger was a uniquely terrible name.

So, it’s a burger that will be in and out. Why will it be in and out? Are you going to vomit it back up? Or is it because it’ll give you diarrhea? Or what else could In-N-Out mean? Sex? Why are you making me think about sex in such proximity to vomit and diarrhea? Honestly, I’m not hungry anymore.

I always thought it was a deliberately horrible name to court controversy, but it turns out the owner is a conservative Christian so it may be genuine tone deaf idiocy.

octoperson,

Did you know YAML is a recursive acronym? It stands for ‘YAML AML MAML LAML’

octoperson,

Mulberry bush fits in place of cobbler’s bench if you say it like mulb’ry. I’ll bet it’s a variation on the variation.

octoperson,

🤔??

  • there is a song called here we go round the mulberry bush
  • in a different song, a weasel goes pop
  • neither song has a monkey

Did Larsson get his songs mixed up? Did he learn different versions from me? Is this from the nursery song cinematic universe and the monkey is from a third song? What’s going on here?

octoperson,

You’re not old unless you type smileys with a nose :-D

octoperson,

Have you all forgotten that they directly addressed this in the show? youtu.be/Q9W7pvOLxmQ

octoperson,

I’ll raise you a carton of ice-cream on a stack of towels

octoperson,

Here’s the article I checked to refresh my memory; theguardian.com/…/homeland-is-racist-artists-subv… . The show runners never checked and it went to air uncensored.

octoperson,

Utopia - the 2013 conspiracy theory spy drama. It’s bold and striking. The music, visual style, writing. Even the recaps - you know, the “previously…” bit. What other show has notable recaps?

Watch the first scene. It doesn’t need any of that “give it a few episodes” nonsense. You’ll know within the first scene if you want to stick with it.

Which YouTuber's voice can lull you to sleep?

I’ve exhausted things I can sleep to on Netflix, and it’s literally impossible to sleep to things on Prime (so I barely watch anything there; it’s not worth falling asleep to something I like, since I might be punished for it), so I’ve started putting on YouTube in the evenings since it won’t wake me with silence at...

octoperson,

Don’t know if they’re on the tube, but I never made it through an episode of Brian Cox’s Cosmos without nodding off.

octoperson,

“I’m just a stupid little idiot guy” is a very Joelish turn of phrase

octoperson,

Don’t forget Towcester! I find it very funny that there’s a town called Toaster.

octoperson,

Shinichi Mochizuki (the abc conjecture guy): elaborates further. You understand less.
