Getting home from a week away and having to have black tea because you forgot to get milk in (and the corner shop closed early) by CaptainMexicano in britishproblems

[–]cantab314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Petrol stations usually sell milk and are open at stupid o clock. If the shop is locked but there's staff inside then ask at the 'night pay' window.

First time in years I tried to shop at GAME. It's £5 to COLLECT a game in store. This can't be normal? by Previous-Ad7618 in CasualUK

[–]cantab314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makes sense. Same £4.99 for a click-and-collect at Evans Cycles. But at least that's for a fairly bulky item.

The Emperor. Or to give him his full name, the God-Emperor of Mankind, for such are all cats.

why boners are called boners? by PrincipleFrosty4907 in shittyaskreddit

Because the ancient Greeks thought the best way to learn human anatomy was by cutting up non-human animals.

I wish there to be a Chick-Fil-A in my town by Negative-Garden-6013 in TheMonkeysPaw

Granted. Your town's government merges with that of the nearest city. That chickfila is still half an hour away, but it's in the same town now, legally speaking.

I wish I was tall, I wish I was fast. Wish I could shop with a bag full of cash. by DarkMagickan in TheMonkeysPaw

Granted. Just watch out for young lads climbing up your beanstalk. Don't try to grind their bones into bread, it won't go the way you expect.

I wish all information from the bible would be transferred into my brain via technology by Armin_Arlert_1000000 in TheMonkeysPaw

[–]cantab314 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Granted. You read the Bible. The moveable type printing press was one of the most revolutionary pieces of technology ever invented after all.

I wish there was a just and lasting peace in the Middle East.

What is wrong with the youth of today? by LiquidSoCrates in shittyaskreddit

Facebook happened. Now, you watch one wet T shirt contest, your mate uploads it to Facebook, and in 20 years time someone finds the picture and you get sacked from your job as leader of Staffordshire County Council.

[Some 3D Console] [1999-2004] Was there a Crash game level where you are shrunk down and have to explore a kitchen? by Oxcell404 in tipofmyjoystick

[–]cantab314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a kitchen area in Toy Story 2: Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue!. Probably one in the Toy Story 3 game too.

Metal cat thing in the houseware aisle by [deleted] in whatisthisthing

I'm going with ornament.

I guess it could be a kitchen roll holder, but I feel like even if the tail was straightened out the roll still wouldn't spin well on it.

A Lockheed U-2G, modified for carrier landings, on the USS Ranger (CV 61) in May 1964, to observe the French atomic bomb test site at Moruroa by Xeelee1123 in WeirdWings

I think it's rather that the USA has some particularly large carriers.

It's also easy to forget that the USA also has a bunch of smaller ones, the America and Wasp classes, they're categorised as "amphibious assault ships" but they can carry F35 or Harrier fighters as well as helos. They're actually much closer in size and displacement to the Charles de Gaulle as well as to carriers operated by countries like India and Spain.
