Of course.

If a man is on his own in a forest and there is no one there to hear him... is it still his fault?
It is his fault that there is nobody there to hear him. He should have thought of that and taken somebody along. biggrin

In Ikea looking at Christmas lights

She says, they look good

me, yeah but there's 2 sets and the display is only 2m wide so we'd need 4-5 sets to make it look like that

we wouldn't , it says a kilometer

what

a kilometer of lights

er, you know a kilometer is 1000 metres

why does it say kilometer then

Don't bother arguing
You'll be wrong.
Just don't
It says kilometre
They're a kilometre

Forget it
You'll lose.

To be fair though, why choose to call something that is apparently 12.6 metres long "Kilometer", that's just asking for trouble, surely?

I'm not arguing, I'm simply explaining why I'm right.

Fortunately it was the display one and he wouldn't sell it

Yes, almost as silly as calling something that can NEVER have 100 legs a 'centipede.'

(Some idiot still did it though.)

Perhaps it's called that because it's 100th of the size of a Pede?

Yesterday. Sarah; the (new a week ago) car isn't responding well, and the peddles aren't going down properly, now I know why he was selling it!

Me, took it down the road, removed rubber mats from beneath the pedals. Jesus H Christ.....

Watching It was alright in the 90's. Subject of music came up and the song Ebeneezer Goode was mentioned.

I commented it was quite funny how we all thought it was great at the time because of all the drug references.
Her "What drug references?"
After a repeated chorus of E's are good and a bit of rhyming slang she twigged and then I asked what she'd thought it was all about.
"Well, you know, that guy Ebeneezer Goode".
What guy?
"I don't know"
I was waiting for her to reference A Christmas Carol hehe
Goode King Wenceslas?
biggrin
Or "Away in a Manger"?

Some would argue that she has a point.

Was at work the other day and received a call from the wife:

Her: I'm in the supermarket car park and the car won't lock
Me: OK don't worry... <thinks> Have you left one of the doors open?
Her: I've checked them all - what am I going to do? I can't leave the car unlocked!
Me: Have you tried putting the key in the door and turning it?
Her: <pause> Will that work? Hey, don't laugh at me, that's not funny...
