Seems to be unanimous. I’ll call the prime minister.

Good point. Maybe when we run out of things to screw up in the world.

I have a reason. Most people are right handed. In a Right hand drive car with manual gears your preferred hand remains on the steering wheel when you change gears. Also messing with the stereo or climate controls also leaves your preferred hand on the wheel.

There is a letter G in the word recognise. Bloody use it. What people all say is “reckonise” which is not the same word. Also driving on the left just makes way more sense.

Trump achieved a short term goal with the insider trading tactic. Let’s see if he does it again.

Shlarmle - To lie constantly from a position of power.

Shlarmled - The people who the Shlarmler wants to be believed by.

None. I open what I need and then close it after I’ve used it. I feel like I’m the weird one because so many people seem to live with countless tabs open all the time. I think people who keep tabs open have no sympathy for power, cpu, and ram usage. Nutters.

The “Mostly” thing is the most famous quote from Aliens.

The movie quote for “its a dry heat” is from Aliens but I think it is a common phrase used in places like Arizona.

I probably didn’t pick the most well known ones, but watch the film (which is always worth doing) and you’ll see.

“Get away from her you bi tch”

Fuckin’ aye

Aliens

There is literally no competition. Every scene has at least 1 classic line. Aliens is also the gold standard reference used by all action movies since.

It’s a dry heat

Nuke it from orbit

There goes our salvage guys

You got the duty, open that bag

Mostly

I just described a cog as a circle with teeth and my son thought it was funny to call the sticky out bits as teeth.

I’m just hoping he doesn’t ask about crenellations next.

For me the EU should make all hardware manufacturers provide open source drivers with the full range of configuration options available. This is one of the biggest hurdles to moving away from Windows.

I’m waiting for the day when these enhanced terminals go full GUI and mouse driven.

Watching the trailer video 10 times in a row is also slightly insane, but is free at least.

Another version I’ve heard is “When you suspect a conspiracy you often only find incompetence”

We call those Clag nuts or Dangle berries.

Only boring people get bored.

Utter nonsense but it was said to my boy by a junior school teacher. Was an interesting conversation when I talked to her at parent teacher day.

How long it will take for someone (not from China) to ruin it for everyone?

There is a Segway between boomer and Gen X but every generation has an overlap. I’m a Gen X. It is a small generation that lived through the creation of the internet society. We were also responsible for 90s independent music labels and the production of the greatest music since the 60s (you are welcome btw). Boomers are post war nationalists that stopped learning anything new after their 18th birthday.

Our inability to trust anyone foreign or unfamiliar. This legacy of our evolution used to be the safest way to live. No it just holds us all back.
