When you install a wide-screen dog TV you have to expect them to use the front row, Ned.

"It was all a dream" endings make me want to throw things around the room. The worst.

They also cross the blood-brain barrier (hence drowsiness as a side effect for some people and early antihistamines).

There seems to be a dementia risk, particularly from older antihistamines; you can find primary literature on this quite easily if you want to know more.

I once half filled a cafetiere with coffee grounds. The resulting toxic sludge was G L O R I O U S.

That's not "lack of room", it's "giving jungle vibes".

I feel like Sarah once commented it would be nice if Lego gave them advanced warning of what was coming for this precise purpose...

But it (food) wasn't for poor people then, so weight was a marker of wealth and status.

The existence of the BBL as well as breast implants suggests there's something about those areas being chunky that is (to the male gaze) good.

I've seen it expressed as what is difficult to attain/maintain is seen as "sexy" from a cultural, rather than a brute biological, standpoint.

Hungry society? Fat is in.

Society with plentiful junk food? Thin is in.

I seem to recall that book considering breasts as buttock mimics.

I don't remember what it was or precise details, but I once found an infected machine because I thought the network graph on a port looked odd - like 2 decades ago when I was still mostly messing around with fish.

It's interesting how small details and pattern recognition are so helpful.

South Africans called them "stiffies", which is alarming AF the first time a man unexpectedly offers you a stiffie in an office.

Those big 5.25" were called floppies.

The logo looking like "IRA" makes an exploding package more likely... At least in the UK.
