Pubic lice.

Grrr.

Yummy yummy salad smoothy, but that word… Stop.

Fruigetable

That is a terrible terrible word. Take my angry upvote and get outta here. Disgusting.

Angry upvote

This is so wrong.

Ravioli are mini pop tarts!

Superbly informative, thank you.

I heard once that some scientist was collecting phages in the sewer outside a hospital in the hope that they might find help for people with antibiotic resistant bacteria. Are such phages similar, different or the same as white blood cells?

Ah, fantastic. A simpler time on the internet.

Is that the Netscape logo?

Wow, I had no idea. Thank you.

Is macrophage just a term I hadn’t come across for virus fighting cells that we make, or am I right to be surprised that we have them? (I heard of their existence, but didn’t realise they are made by creatures rather than just evolving separately.)

Do mumps and rubella work in any kind of a similarly unusual way, or is it just coincidence that we need those three at around the same age?

Having said that, I’m finding some of the arguments the other way here fairly convincing.

But conversely, I remember in 2010 I asked a youth group what they thought the main parties were about. They said that Labour were about making education better and the Conservatives were about making the NHS better. None of them remembered that the Conservatives massively underfunded the NHS and always prioritised tax cuts over public services. I was right. They were wrong.

So much this. 16 year olds rarely know (or care) much about politics, AT ALL.

This will make it much more likely that young people will acquire the habit of not voting.

Make them wait till they want it.

Yes, and that’s not even under the table.

Yup. Companies avoid paying taxes in one country by getting their divisions in other, lower tax countries to charge the one in the high tax country so much for intellectual property and branding etc that they make a loss in the high tax country, which in some countries entitles them to a tax rebate. It’s insane.

Terribly sorry for the interjection, but you misspelt bo’w’o’wa’uh and arse.

Don’t do this, EU. You’re better than this.

Flower wingman.

Thanks for the abuse. I love it when I’m discussing something with someone and they start swearing at me and calling me names because I disagree. Really makes it fun. /s You can fuck right off yourself too, you arrogant tool.

And yet I just forsaw a future in which it wasn’t. AI has already exceeded Trump levels of understanding, intelligence and truthfulness. Why wouldn’t it beat you or I later? Exponential growth in computing power and all that.
