    Why the fook did they only make 5 episodes of The Fall. I couldn't understand why my Sky box didn't record it this week. I thought there must be some type of disastrous mistake, but it turns out episode 5 was the finale.

    People on Deal or no deal. You don't know what is in the box, you can't sense if it is red or blue.

    You don't deserve a cheer if it is blue.

    It is not your fault if it is red.

    The fly that got in through my window that I opened about an inch, actually seems to have managed to leave again through said window inch.

    Living.
    Our ancestors HAD to survive, they HAD to get up and hunt to get their food, they had no other option.
    In 2013 we have stores we can go to to get all the food and comfortable living supplies we could ever need and not only that we have designed entertainment devices to use up time when we are doing nothing so essentially distracting us from our own mortality.
    Now since the survival aspect of life is taken away, we use it productively so that we may advance in all aspects of our life and make life more and more comfortable.
    But why the need for so much comfort? Is it so we can take our mind off not having a true purpose, maybe that was why man made Religion so he can delude himself into thinking that we are special and not just another animal on this planet.

    I did not kill my lovely wife
    I did not slash her with a knife
    I did not bonk her on the head
    I did not know that she was dead.

    I stayed at home that fateful night
    I took a cab then took a flight
    The bag I had was just for me
    My bag! My bag! Hey, leave it be.

    When I came home I had a gash
    My hand was cut from broken glass
    I cut my hand on broken glass
    A broken glass did cause that gash.

    I have nothing, nothing to hide
    My friend, he took me for a ride.

    Did you take this person's life?
    Did you do it with a knife?
    I did not do it with a knife
    I did not, could not kill my wife
    I did not do this awful crime
    I could not, would not anytime.

    Did you hit her from above?
    Did you drop this bloody glove?

    I did not hit her from above
    I cannot even wear that glove

    I did not do it with a knife
    I did not, could not kill my wife
    I did not do this awful crime
    I could not, would not anytime.

    And now I'm free, I can return
    To my house for which I yearn
    And to my family whom I love
    Hey now I'm free -- give back my glove!

    When a famous singer dies and loads of people immediately rush out to buy his or her albums. These people weren't previously interested enough in this persons music to buy their albums but now that they're dead they can't get enough of them. Some people went through their entire lives without feeling the need to own Bad or Thriller, but as soon as Michael Jackson died they just have to have them. I don't get what it is about someone being dead that makes their music more appealing.

    I think that is likely to be as a result of radio stations playing the songs & then people saying "oh, good song, will buy it"

    Saying "Oh eight six" rather then "Zero eight six".
    Madness it is, alphanumerical madness.

    It's not a path, it's a sidewalk. Petrol vs. gasoline. Car vs automobile. Roundabout vs. turning circle.

    "zer-oh eight six"

    Santa Claus: Parents work hard all year round to save cash for presents at Christmas time. Instead of getting any credit from their kids for this, they pretend that some hairy, obese man came down the ****ing chimney and delivered the presents. If you step back and think of it, it doesn't make much sense. The kids might love Santa but they'd probably love their parents a little bit more if they found out the truth.

    If parents told kids it was them, kids being the crafty feckers they are, would be trying to wangle gifts out of them all year round!

    The way it is now, you can keep them in line with the threat of an unknown man not giving them pressie if they're bold.

    Yet saying "Naught eight six" sounds so oulfolky. We need a new succint yet pleasent sounding replacment for the the names of the number zero and naught that isn't oh.

    Yes, yes it does. You should come visit for a few hours some minute.
