Don’t worry the cringe spoke far louder than any academic qualification.

Back on topic; Sting sang on money for nothing.

Rod Stewart sang on In A Broken Dream for a set of car seat covers.*

*This is a joke using word play of 'sang on money for nothing'

I didn't realise that if you pull the heater control knob slider in a Triumph spitfire, the two speed fan switches on.

I just thought it was a st heater and only discovered his after commuting from Bradford to Durham for 3 months through one of the coldest winters for decades.

When I bought mine someone had wired in a separate switch for the fan. However it was only when I took the dash apart to rewire it properly did I figure out it was a two speed fan.

A PhD really is as simple as 4 years spent spending studying something you love, then communicating it to experts in a thesis and a viva. Why the fk would anyone do it if it wasn’t fun? Perhaps some people like the certificate?

In order to give a tiny degree of levity to the pissing contest, I started my PhD in a subject I loved, and came out hating that subject, and have never worked in that area again.

Viva was hell as well.

I have driving my wife’s VW Golf for 11years, I only recently discovered the steering wheel not only tilts ( which I knew), but it also telescopes, I inadvertently pulled at the wheel to get comfy and it moved towards me , I had to push it back as I have no need to use this function, but hey you live and learn.

My daughter, who lives on quite a steep road, had one from new for 7 years before she discovered it had hill hold when she tried to roll it back and couldn’t understand why it wouldn’t move then suddenly let go.

Never fancied the idea of eating something that came out of a bee's bottom so avoided honey for over 60 years, then found out it was delicious. Gah.

Honey comes out of a bee's mouth, not it's bum.

So vom not poo, hmm, still not selling it to me

Wait until you find out where milk comes from.
