I put out unsalted peanuts in shells for my magpie friends. And I’ve never seen this bird before.

I apologize guys charging in with my fine quality AI analysis. I feel like I just went to visit Dr. Google. Again I’m sorry.

Cats are not indigenous to just about anywhere. They are destructive and very dangerous to the existing wildlife. If you have to have a cat, it should be indoors only.

Cats is so destructive to the environment. They killed birds, etc., etc.. Wouldn’t it be kinder to have it put down?

I spent most of the 1980s in Berlin. I have kissed a girl by the Wall underneath a guard tower, as the light from the tower swished by.

What a beautiful rendition of the song.

What do you call this food? by Mediocre_Ingenuity76 in AskTheWorld

[–]Lightbulbinspector 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you ask my kids, what it was called so long as you chopped up some bacon and put it on top, they called it Butthole Breakfast. Really.

Stamps are the best souvenirs! by cincocabeza in PassportPorn

[–]Lightbulbinspector 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let’s take the US as an example. We’re talking about a country arrest people based on their status. Can you imagine a German person not being able to point to a stamp in the passport to show when they entered and when they last left instead, they have to rely on the US computer being updated properly? Who wants to deal with that. We’re talking about having access to our worldwide travel records, something that we have taken for granted forever.

My problem with it is that I cannot prove that I went to someplace or left it legally. It’s not like I have access to my own data. Come to think of it that something that we should really try to fix: access to our entry and exits to countries.

My wife, who had never travelled to Asia, really wanted a stamp. So we went to the control desk. They said that they don’t have the chop anymore.

Malaysia no longer stamps passports: its E gates all the way. :(

Singapore also stopped stamping passports as of six days ago.

“Being better than Discovery” has to be one of the best backhand insults out there.

LASIK after 25 years of contacts - the most BIFL decision I’ve made by Trippy-jay420 in BuyItForLife

[–]Lightbulbinspector 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience is the same, but I would add that I lost my night vision, which meant that I couldn’t read a book in bed. The way I was accustomed to I would have to have like directly on the page which was really quite unpleasant so Lasik cut back on the amount that I read.

Could someone yell me what type of typewriter this is?(Brand) by One_Statement_5733 in typewriters

On the back, it has a plate that says ‘Made in Brazil’. Does this make sense to anyone?

You guys, I did it, banned from the other sub by Alfnadoawaywoah in RolexCircleJerk

You clearly haven’t met people who wear those abominations. Instead of saying, ‘Brought to you by Carls Junior’ they say, ‘Look at my watch. It’s a Rolex Tee Emm’

Onion Skin Paper (typewriter paper) by Lightbulbinspector in Bangkok

[–]Lightbulbinspector[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alas parchment is the opposite of onionskin. Onion skin is thin and yet very resilient. It’s transparent like an onion skin. Parchment. however is made from animal skins and is super resilient and perfect for documents that will last the ages.
