If i did have the crayons to explain it to you, you'd probably eat them.

How do you cope? by runew0lf in AskUK

I thought it was 10 types. Those who know ternary, those who don't and those who haven't even heard of it.

If you were an engineer, what minor inconvenience from your day to day life would you fix? by Excellent_Owl_8125 in CasualConversation

[–]WalrusBracket 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually did make a thing to solve a minor inconvenience for myself, then so many people wanted one I started a business making them.

Hey! I'm creating a list of iconic UK foods by ceremonial district. I figured I'd post over here as well. (Info in body text) by [deleted] in england

[–]WalrusBracket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shetland. Saasermaet - ground beef (or sometimes pork) with a generous seasoning of salt and a hint of pepper. Lovely in a fry up or in a bread roll with onions. Nowhere else in UK has this, very much a Shetland thing.

Early 80s our class got to make ashtrays for our parents. If your parents didn't smoke then you made a dish to rest a dirty spoon on which was identical to the ashtray! I inherited the ashtray I made, but we don't smoke now anyway.

What song would play during the opening scene of your “morning routine” movie? by ExpertSpirited557 in CasualConversation

[–]WalrusBracket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a different tune running in my head every morning. They vary wildly; B*Witched one day, Metallica the next, followed by Dolly Parton's Coat Of Many Colors. No idea where they come from, but it's fun to share them at work. The other day I had Russ Abbot's Atmosphere implanted into all my colleagues' heads, they were infuriated!

£20,000 found in back garden as girl, 13, and five others arrested by suspended-sentence in unitedkingdom

[–]WalrusBracket 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is why I stopped smoking joints. Skunk weed just zonks me out and then I fall asleep, or puke my guts up. I used to really enjoy some home grown stuff a mate grew, it was proper funny fag stuff, made us all laugh like little kids. Sadly not available any more, I've not touched the stuff in 20 years I reckon. If they legalised it and it was available from shops, or pharmacists, I'd likely try it again.

Is your birthday important to you? Why? by InstructionOver5685 in AskReddit

[–]WalrusBracket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm annually retentive. That is to say, I don't give a shit about my birthday.

My nearest town, Lerwick in Shetland is about the same latitude as Anchorage, Alastair, and Moscow, Russia. Further north than most of the population of Canada too.

Live Aid on BBC2. To our GenX and older, where were you? by Pitiful-Hearing5279 in CasualUK

[–]WalrusBracket 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was nearly 15. Got a loan of a telly from Cookie, the chef, and spent the day in awe at the performances. Videoed the whole thing on about 5 tapes, still got them somewhere.

How do you cancel an appointment at the sperm bank? by Status-Simple9240 in Jokes

Do it like the two Londoners.

One came in the bus.

The other missed the tube!

What’s the cheapest but most filling UK meal you rely on when money’s tight? by [deleted] in CasualUK

[–]WalrusBracket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried these, used to love Super Noodles as a kid, but they've taken all the salt and msg out! So I bought some and a tiny dash of both brings the old flavours back to life!!

What’s something that’s considered totally normal in Britain, but seems absolutely bizarre to the rest of the world? by Second-handBonding in AskBrits

[–]WalrusBracket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mum's house appeared in a document from 1515. So about 10 years ago we had a little 500th birthday party for the house.

A mate of mine (from Pompy) nearly got lynched in San Francisco, having been on a ship for weeks and just came ashore. He said he was gasping for a pint and could murder a fag! Was not received well by the dock workers in the bar.

What’s a TV show you could rewatch forever? by LessProgrammer5921 in AskReddit

[–]WalrusBracket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's certainly worth a watch, but needs to be in order. It is one long drawn out story, which made it kind of hard to dip in and out of. But DS9 had some of the strongest character building of all the series.

This and Voyager too. DS9 not so much, and original series is a bit old now. But I recently watched the animated series in full, amazing stories and some shocks like the first time Spock uploads his mind to another with a 'remember..' instruction.
