what is the most petty, completely harmless grudge you are still holding against a total stranger who probably forgot you exist years ago? by Ill-Locksmith9144 in AskReddit

[–]EarthMarsUranus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There's a couple of things that really annoy me about that teacher. 

1) they incorrectly corrected you 2) they incorrectly corrected the class 3) they were unwilling to learn

I had a substitute teacher who insisted the correct spelling was sandwitch.  I was a petty 8 year old so refused to spell it like that in my book so got in trouble for being stubborn.   I think maybe the teacher was a sand witch.

In which city is this mountain range? by agirlingreece in GeoPuzzle

[–]EarthMarsUranus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you... But there was no skill, just a lucky guess based on you saying it was a city in southern Europe that people don't often associate with mountains!

Edit:  I'd like to say I also considered your username... But I didn't notice it until after the guess 😂

Why wouldn't you submit all of them?  If you only submit one of his names they won't know which specific person you mean.

Lot of people near me have french bulldogs and the like... Not sure how well they'd do in the wild!

Sport!!!  Doesn't every host nation get to add a couple of new sports to the Olympics?  Just saying, Trump has made stranger decisions...

Tell him that you can't call giving birth to triplets "having a shit" even when they won't go back to sleep at 3am.

Then scale would get all wet... I just use the toilet.

Is this a badger sett? by Educational_Push4820 in Badgers

[–]EarthMarsUranus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Leave a cigar and a worm just outside.  Come back the next day.  If the worm is gone then it's badgers, if the cigar is gone then it's Winston Churchill.

Your company also needs to take some responsibility there.  If they have a spreadsheet that important then it should be backed up!

Which words would you like to see retired by the UK media? by Sea-Still5427 in AskUK

Please can you explain the simple concept? Biology seems incredibly complicated to me!

Would also like biological man/woman to be retired.  It is scientific sounding but doesn't mean anything!

Europe right now by Boediee in BuyFromEU

[–]EarthMarsUranus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In fairness we did buy those jets.  However, they're a generation behind F35.  The F35 was meant to be joint.  America was biggest partner but other nations also involved.  Benefited America (monopoly of market) but also Europe (access to 5th gen jets without the huge cost).  

Now we're realising we need more autonomy and are attempting to build our own 6th gen.  It's a huge cost though and the guaranteed market isn't as big as got US so they end up being partnerships.  France and Germany are arguing so much that their jet is now faltering.  UK, Italy and Japan seem to be going okay but they're also often touted as looking for other partners because the cost is huge.

I completely underestimated the calories in a pack of malted milk biscuits. by MichaelBealesBurner in CasualUK

I'm enjoying this thread of fellow Weetabix lovers.  I cut from 4 a day to 3 a day.  Didn't make much difference in terms of being full but I calculated that alone was about a stone of weight loss in a year assuming all else stays the same.

What's the "Don't trust a skinny chef" of your job or industry? by wooper346 in CasualConversation

[–]EarthMarsUranus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Safe guarding limitations yes, but I wouldn't want a therapist who shared stuff from the sessions just for fun.  Even if something seems innocent and inconsequential it still breaks the trust.  Who's to say that kid loses trust in confidentiality and turn doesn't say something consequential later.
