Classic from the Mrs!
Discussion
Bird had her car MOTd today. Passed with an advisory that the front brakes were 70% worn. Not surprising given the way she drives.
"My car needs new brakes, what are those bimbo brakes you're going on about?"
I mentioned once in conversation (about two months ago) that my old Impreza had Brembos and they were fantastic.

Bit of a chuckle last night.
Doing some tidying up in the kitchen. There were two rolls of kitchen roll on the side - one new and one about 3/4 used (both the same brand, same size tube etc). My wife tried to consolidate them by placing the 3/4 used one into the inside of the cardboard tube of the new one - took a few seconds before it clicked why this wasnt going to be possible (in this universe at least).

Panic stricken phone call from sister in law.
Her: The fraud unit at my bank have been on the phone. Someone has my debit card details and has been stealing money from my account.
Me: So?
Her: How do I scan my laptop for viruses?
Me: Why?
Her: In case they have got my card details.
Me: You don't use internet banking and don't have any card details stored on your laptop!
Her: Oh, yes.

You don't have to use internet banking or store the card details on the laptop in order to be compromised. If you buy stuff online using that laptop and it has a "man in the browser infection" then the details can be stolen.Her: The fraud unit at my bank have been on the phone.

If her card details have been used by someone else then they were obviously obtained from somewhere and scanning the laptop for possible infections is as good a place to start as any.

Flat mates girlfriend:
"What's the Holocaust, is it something to do with god, or is it sex or is it the devil possessing you"
We then ridiculed her for it and her response was:
"I'll tell you the reason I don't know what the holocaust is, I didn't study History in school. I only did Higher History and learnt about World War 2"

That's red card material. If he didn't dump her on the spot you need to have a word. "What's the Holocaust, is it something to do with god, or is it sex or is it the devil possessing you"
