Roses are red, violets are blue, you made me look up what a Haiku was, f*ck you.
(Not really. I like learning new stuff).

Bored? One of the funniest times you'll have outside of Funsubstance is typing "parkour fails" into the Youtube search engine and watching some of the vids.

Sounds like this mom has issues around not annoying her stepson and stepdaughter because she's not their "real mom" and needs to be liked, where as with her own flesh and blood she has no problem with being a parent and being firm. Maybe pointing this out in a non-shouty way or in a letter to her where it's less in your face and confrontational might help.

Looks amazing from this exact angle that shows it's a flower but might need to see it from the front too. It might look like a Walnut Whip after someone's stolen the walnut.

But ... but ... Merida uses a recurve self bow and this lady has an American Flatbow that isn't even slightly recurved. (Forever alone level: archery geek.)

One I'd like to after eating food I do not like ... "Thy food is such, As hath been belch'd on by infected lungs." - Pericles (Act 4 Scene 6)

If it's for alerting paramedics and the like it's not a very good system. Because nearly half of all sign users do not remove them when there is no child in the car.

$350 for a belt? If I paid $350 for a belt I want to be able to rappel from a building with it. I'd want to hold mini smoke grenades. I want it hold flash bangs, EMP and tear gas pellets too. If I paid $350 for a belt I'd want it to be Batman's utility belt.

They joke but it's not that much far off what actually happens...

It's bad of me I know and it's a sign I've been on the internet too long but when I finished reading the first thing that popped into my head was the "I immediately regret this decision" meme.

They used gaffer tape instead of a bra. In space no one can hear you scream (when you take your gaffer tape bra off).

What about the pet bird?

In the UK it's officially metric but it's mixed with Imperial. Speed limits and distances are in miles. Some shops show produce weights in kilograms and pounds. People still give their height in feet and inches, their weight is in stones and pounds (14 pounds per stone). So you can live with both.

This is probably because one person's definition of feminism is different from another person's definition of feminism as there have been several different feminist movements over the years. For example third wave feminism, standpoint feminism & post-feminism.

Things my kids have asked me about by they don't know what they are when they've seen them; record players, CRT televisions, rotary dial telephones, car windows that you have to actually turn a handle to wind down, cameras that use film and CD racks.

Not sure about the music prediction. There's lots of different types of music out there and although computers have been a great tool for musicians they're not a necessity. As I saw "Pitch Perfect" last month acapella is the first example that springs to mind.

Why has he not got a massive barreled body, a beard and a brand new Scottish accent now that he's hit adulthood? I thought that's what happened to everyone in his village.

I thought threads are called threads because of the way discussions were first visually arranged on message boards (and still are mostly). Grouped in a hierarchy by topic, with any replies to a message arranged visually near to the original message and linked by a line (the "thread"). But I could be wrong, I am quite a lot of the time.

Hiding important stuff like finances from each other never ends well (I've done it myself and once someone thinks the other is capable of lying the trust is gone it's a relationship killer). I'm crappy with the finances and my wife took over that part of our lives - I took over the stuff that she was crappy at. It totally took the load off me because that's her area of responsibility now and I've taken the load off her for my areas. This way feels like we're working as a team rather than one person having to be "the responsible adult" for the other one.

Sadly this one is made up, but there are real places that are similar. If it was too rude the Victorians would have changed it anyway. Some streets where prostitutes lived were called "Gropec*nt Lane" in the medieval period but these got changed to "Grape Lane". So anyplace name with f*ck in it is probably fake. But words like "cock" mean rooster in England so you end up with "Tickle Cock Bridge" and "Cockermouth". However there's a place in Shetland called "Twatt" named after the Old Norse for a small parcel of land.

The person who supposedly was filming this totally not fake event; "A child is about to get hit by a train, a granny is kicking the child out of the way, what should I do? What should I do? I know, a very slow zoom out... nailed it."

Firstly I'd like to say I'm 100% against discrimination so I'm not putting the gist of this ad down. But when this ad first came out a lot of people pointed out the following; Google tailors it's predictive search to your past searches. So if you spend a lot of time searching out discrimination on Google you're going to get predictive search results like this.
