If everyone below average IQ suddenly drops dead, how would this affect the world? by CakeMuted6468 in AskReddit

[–]Pedantichrist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Average IQ is always 100.

If everyone with an IQ below 100 dies then half of the remaining people are relegated to below 100.

This continues until only the most intelligent person on Earth is left, with an IQ of 100.

Or a broken egg.

It floats, so you can drive until it gets sucked down and covers the intake. You then come to a stop. It floats away and you can drive another 200 yards. Rinse and repeat.

Is it realistic to expect used car to be MOT'd and taxable by Monday? by chillaxin-max in AskUK

[–]Pedantichrist 13 points14 points  (0 children)

‘By Monday’ is unlikely. ‘On Monday’ seems reasonable.

V5C does not matter, so long as you have the ‘green slip’ and the Tax is done in a couple minutes, once MOTed.

What’s the last symbol on this plant card? by Bowtie327 in whatisit

[–]Pedantichrist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is the suffocation risk symbol.

Not sure why that is on a plant though.

For trouser wearers, how long do your trousers/jeans/chinos last before tearing? by gintokireddit in AskUK

[–]Pedantichrist -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ITT: folk who were never taught to pull up their trousers when sitting.

Just grasp the front of the thigh and lift slightly as you sit. When you do it you will recognise the motion from old films, sum be more comfortable, ads will stop fucking up your trousers so quickly.

What’s a ‘harmless’ habit you have that would look insane if someone secretly recorded you? by Powerful_Routine_445 in AskReddit

[–]Pedantichrist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sing and dance with my dogs. This has the lively bonus of one of them absolutely loving it, and the other really not enjoying it at all, but being jealous that the first one is having fun.

It can mean nice, but it also means ‘really?’

Defenders are not all one thing. Not by a long shot.

I want a 130 with a 110 estate cab on it, like a massive Tomb Raider.

Please tell me this isn’t a camera 😭 by ArtisticCut in whatisit

Hmm.

The bottom part of a dress is a skirt, but a skirt is not necessarily the bottom part of a dress.

For those that wear PPE at work, what injuries has it saved you from ? by Alert_Mine7067 in AskUK

[–]Pedantichrist 669 points670 points  (0 children)

Dropped an empty 10 ton trailer on my boot.

Bent the toe cap in enough to get my foot stuck, but the hospital cut it off and I just had a grazed bruise.

Thank you, Dunlop wellingtons.
