From the photo, it looks like there's also a problem with Barnaby-related warming. If he doesn't cool down he'll explode!

Awesome. Awesome style. What do you call it? Steam punk mosquito? Post apocalyptic?

But aren't there already a lot of other things that Lin Manuel Miranda wants to do so bad that it physically hurts him?

It's a good thing that all this publicity means that this will never happen again and no one will ever try and copy this ladies actions (with adhesive that damages the sculpture).

The movie mentions some guy who bet housing would crash but was 2 years too early (or something). In the movie it seemed like Burry just happened to find out about it at the right time. Did he get lucky with the timing, or was there a way he was able to accurately predict when it would crash?

"The paediatrician Samuel Gee gave the first modern-day description of the condition coeliac diease. Gee highlighted particular success with a child "who was fed upon a quart of the best Dutch mussels daily." However, the child could not bear this diet for more than one season." #wikipedia

Do 9 out of 10 dentists recommend that particular toothpaste because it keeps your teeth clean, or because it keeps them in business? #followthemoney

When she says former punk phase, does she actually mean skinhead phase? The liberal party doesn't usually let in too many people with punk ideologies, right?

The government's failure to prosecute unelected ministries undermines its own legitimacy. The whole ministry of sound must be arrested and tried for treason. And perhaps executed. Furthermore, the shadow minister of sound has failed to mobilize any sort of effective opposition. #ministryofsound

Did she actually add that extra s in herself? Why? WHY!? I suppose someone who does something like that also doesn't realise they should never tell anyone about it because they don't realise how embarrassing it is.

The first questions where it's just a picture and you have to say the name of the picture? So there's a picture of a tiger and you get one point for saying "tiger"? He thinks other people won't pass these and he's smart because he finds it easy? Is that what's going on here?

Oxford mathematics convinced me I should be swirling drink bottles when emptying them upside down because it's faster... but also mainly fun.

Is it hard to train up and maintain effective leadership if your boss keeps using the force to choke anyone who admits to mistakes?

How much of his career has involved getting more than he deserves and also avoiding exactly what he does deserve?

Like, we'll just help your teeth as long as they're basically already fine? So it seems a bit better than Australia, but still not the best. Good to know.

If you're really rich, you're paying someone to do your laundry, right? Are you also paying someone to buy your underwear for you? Like, your mum? How's that work?

That's a bit depressing. If Sweden hasn't figured this stuff out how is little ol Australia going to do it!

Steve Irwin's last words were "I'm dying". Apt. Very apt. And that's what people liked about him.
