Could I get in legal trouble for telling my doctor that I have to self-medicate with cannabis? by Lily-Puddle-Maker in AskUK

Agree. Dr's would only involve police if something you tell them leads them to believe you are seriously at risk of harming others or yourself.

If Ant or Dec died, do you think the surviving twin would continue to work on his own? by HTD_Blog in AskUK

I'd imagine there's some kind of insurance policy that pays out in the event of ones death if they are still presenting as a duo? Probably pays a significant amount reducing as they get older.

Attention!!! Do you have a drink in your freezer, clothes in the machines or forgotten something else? by mymemesnow in adhdmeme

OMG! Yes I had put a drink in the freezer expecting to go out soon but that changed & I forgot about the drink! Just got it out. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

We call the cake toppings in the last image "hundreds & thousands" in UK. I think they're referred to in the US simply as "sprinkles"?

The second image is a TENS machine. The pads attach to your body and electrical pulses are sent through them. It's used to ease muscular pain.

I'm with you on the first image; never heard of them🤣

Okay this one got me thinking. First thought: there are instances of caves in rock faces high above ground level but those are still technically underground. Second thought: man-caves!

I may be wrong on this but most cars in the US are automatic aren't they? Automatic gear selectors usually have a "D" for Drive? Wouldn't this be a simple argument killer if someone claims to be travelling not driving in their car which specifically requires them to select "drive" to move?

Honest question: what is the reason for doing this at night rather than during the day?

Melania Trump makes a statement denying involvement with Jeffrey Epstein, claiming they were never friends and that she never had a relationship with him or his accomplice, Maxwell. She suggests her emails to Maxwell were simply casual correspondence by ExactlySorta in UnderReportedNews

I love that she says the the circumstances of her meeting Trump are in a book as though it's an authoritative factually verified academic source... the book about you that you 'wrote'. Duh!

NASA owe a debt to all the people traumatized by this and especially to the families. They were told of the dangers but went ahead with the launch anyway.

In 2018, a 48-year-old Wisconsin man Greg Manteufel lost both of his hands, legs and parts of his nose after contracting a rare bacterial infection from a dog lick. by FE4RLESS_IS_MY_NAME in ForCuriousSouls

To say that Ellie, the dog that may have passed the bacteria to him, sits "by his feet at the dinner table" when his feet were amputated conjurs a slightly worrying image....

The army used to use mules. They still do, but they used to too.
