Are they saying the fish are sexy
Also Id be bad at posting because she asked me where I was and I just said that 'It's the bit with the spooky lady'.
And then clarified it was the 'very spooky lady'.
This did not make it clearer.
My wife wants me to post through reading Gideon the Ninth and unfortunately I am not built for posting through it because as soon as I stop doing something to post then I will have stopped doing it and will never start again.

Boxes have been laid over the image from the side, indicating counting zones on leg and body, with biting flies marked with white circles.
Winners of this year's Ig Nobel awards:
Inspired by the observation that zebras aren't plagued by biting flies, this group that found that painting zebra stripes on cattle reduced attacks by biting flies by 20%.
This reduced the no. of fly-repelling behaviors (tail flicks, skin twitches) needed.

On the phone, got into a crisis because both me and the person on the other end could not remember any words that start with 'n' when trying to spell out a word.
'N, as in gnome.'
'N, as in knowledge.'
Saw a quote tweet to this that said "this kinda works to the tune of hallelujah" and I had to give it a try + expand on it (will post in reply)
I did not bother tuning Teto here because I already spent 30 minutes just slapping this together and I have work today lol
