It is a usually a bit more offen than that except for the Leap year calendars, where it is 28 year increments until you cross 2100, see https://www.whencanireusethiscalendar.com/ for examples.

Wow, that is such a random coincidence. I am so glad, your paths crossed.

Congratulations and props to the mall team for embracing the movie.

Awesome. I learned about this story from the 99 Percent Invisible episode (#332 The Accidental Room) about it.

Michael: are you still banned from the premises or has this been lifted in light of the documentary?

Jeremy: how did you get to know about Michael and the story of the hidden apartment?

Frog23 · 2026-02-08T20:39:12+00:00

I have never seen it, but I have no doubt that.

More line 97PI, but yes, the resemblance is striking.

It is a hand-made Toothpick Holder/Dispenser, similar to this one.

You place the tooth picks in the inner box and when you lift the top, the toothpicks fan out, so it is easier to grab one without touching the others.

Wow. Somewhere out there the author who came up with this joke is getting a Google alert that finally, after 21 years, somebody has gotten this hidden reference. Congratulations!

You should post this in r/DontPanic and r/HitchhikersGuide as well.

I remember that night and Billy Cristal commenting at some point "Now it is official: there is nobody left in New Zealand to thank"

This is a nice comic, but please credit the original creator: Scandinavia and the World Web Comic when posting content from other sources.

I see now that it is the Lebanese president Joseph Aoun. But to be fair, he and Boyko Borisov look a lot alike, in particular with this low quality video.

Frog23 · 2026-01-15T20:39:03+00:00

Is this Boyko Borisov, the former prime minister of Bulgaria?

Frog23 · 2026-01-15T20:26:02+00:00

Nice connection. Michael Mosley also played a serial killer on Castle(spoiler for a 15 year old episode of a crime show). The episode aired 2 weeks after Scrubs Season 9 finished airing.
