    It's in the Top Gear India special actually - the bit where they're hanging banners on a moving train.

    It was also regularly used in Brainiac on Sky One from what I remember.

    Yeah, it is badly photoshopped in, would have been far better if it was drawn in.

    Yes, and not only on iphones, and not only from him: that's why we are blue in the face asking people to add the links, esp. from sites like twimg, scontent, etc. I was told my own posts from ifunny are a problem for some users, too.
    At least adding a link would allow people to click on it if they were curious, they're much better than a rake of blank pages.

    See, now I know that they're lying. They couldn't possibly put their socks on, with such short arms, just as they couldn't possibly fasten their sandals. Now, flip flops I could understand. Maybe even Birkenstocks, if they were German T-Rex.

    Now, wait a minute, there. It's clear you haven't thought it through. How were they doing that, exactly? By lifting their legs? They'd have toppled over. Would the helper TRex have had to bend down to the helpee's feet? Arms still too short, even if the helpee had put its foot on the helper's bended knee. Not a chance. Now, if you had said they were wearing slip-ons, then fine, that'd have been entirely plausible 'cause they could have used one of those long shoe horns with the back scratcher on the other end to put them on. But socks? Pft! Do me a favour!

    If it's anything like what's used in humans, then it was more likely a cattle prod up the Khyber Pass.

    I can only assume it is to do with COVID lockdown restrictions, stuff that Communist governments around the world would consider normal control of populations.

    I think it's about how long the lockdowns are going on.
    Back in March when lockdowns first started, people couldn't travel and shelves in shops were empty, the communism comparison was made.

    We never ran out either and never panic bought, so were lucky that there was some when we needed it, but did see empty shelves in several local shops for about 3-4 weeks around March.

    Most types of flour were unavailable for weeks; I think there was only self-raising sometimes.
    That was in Lidl Shankill/Sallynoggin, Aldi Sallynoggin, Tesco Ballybrack.
    At the same time there was a separate issue with egg supply which meant there was a very limited supply of those also.

    It gets better.

    The island owners play up to the myth by hanging flags on the bridge - the image that was put up has those flags in it, and is claiming that the side with the Candian flag is American, and vice versa
