A very French problem...

Old urban myth: Pugwash (really really really old animated series), the hands on the ship were 'Master Bates' deckhand 'Seaman Stains' and 'Roger the cabin boy' and then there's the since adopted meanings for Pugwash[^] Kids today have nothing on the fun we had way back then, sadly some bleeding heart moron (oops) invented: 'PC.' (No not the IBM thing) Can't even be a proper grumpy old man with these *&^* newfangled rules.

Ah, for duck's sake: You made me go to Urban Dictionary, and I just HAD to check out the "Trending now" links. I wish I hadn't, because now I know what a "Dog in a bath tub" is, and I really wish I hadn't seen that! How is that even remotely possible??? X|

This made me reflect upon the other treads about Git, and in my opinion, the name of that source control system is only fitting when pronounced in French (but then again in that case VERY fitting!) :~

This reminds me of my first few years in Canada not getting the Frenglish puns. Whoosh! There went another one over my head... (I'm better now. Osmosis is a wonderful thing)

Osmosis? I think a better analogy would "decay is inevitable", or perhaps "things will be better in the next life", or, "I'd rather have beeen kidnapped by aliens and probed".

Sadly, the blame is more easily and correctly place of the religious right . . . those folks who brought (and still try to bring) censorship tall all they perceive as immoral. You know - the folks that see pornographic images in Disney Cartoons[^].

LOL, I see them in imdb doing the parents guide - they love the sex heading, telling other parents bout girls in short pants, top button undone, men with no shirts on (ffs, ever been to a beach?) Couldn't find it back but one woman wrote about a children's movie, something along the lines of 'the couple have 2 children implying they had sex in the past.' I kid you not. Yep, just the mere sight of children implies sex to some of these folks!! Holy Pugwash!! How do they look at themselves in a mirror and consider how they got there? Do they love their own parents?
Sin tack ear lol Pressing the any key may be continuate

Well, you can look at the bright side: since they find sex so offensive we can always hope the don't breed, removing them from the gene pool. A comment (I really make) to pregnant women (or better, the couples and not strangers) is: "I know what you've been doing!". Fortunately, by choosing my target carefully, it's always good for a laugh. Afterwards, of course, I fall into silent reflection: I have daughters - and I think I know what needs to happen if I want grandchildren. Frightening, since I only had brothers and . . . well, I'm not going to even think about it.

A friend of mine used to be a nurse in the maternity ward of a London hospital, and they "share" that kind of info around. Particularly if the gentleman (for it is usually thus) is currently in A&E, standing in the corner and buzzing gently... :laugh: The worst patient she met was a very young lady who was undecided whether to have an abortion or not: when she met her in late term she brightly said "So I see you decided to have the baby then?" only to be told "Nah. I aborted it meself." While visions of knitting needles, coat hangers, and other unpleasantnesses marched resolutely across her mind, the patient pulled up her jumper to reveal a band-aid across her belly button with the triumphal words "I suffocated 'im!" :doh:
