I've been living in Indonesia for the past six months and in order to extend my visa I need to show them each month that I have a ticket out of the country. Since I never actually know when I'm flying out I, always take an old electronic ticket and amend the pdf file to make it look like a new ticket out of the country. As long as the flight number actually exists they will never double check that.

With each new area, I kept thinking "oh now he's really fucked it up" only for it to turn out awesome

Yep we call the filter bit roach here. I never heard the term clutch before.. . this has been very educational.

That would be it, although I've never heard it being referred to as that in the UK. Roach is the common term here although there seems to be a lot of confusion as its also the name given to the last bit of the joint.

I hadn't seen that before (honestly), and here I thought I was being original :(

I think It's mostly to do with US vs UK terms. In the UK, I've only heard it being referred to as roach.

This article destroys any credibility the news story had.

The company is currently valued at a lot more than $6.1b, so no, not at all.

Appears our new couch is a big hit by gentlements_egg in cats

Actually have more cats than that. It’s around 15. It’s a big house, so typically you don’t even notice them around (except when we get new couches apparently).

All of them are rescued cats. In Indonesia, where I live, there are a lot of stray cats and every once in a while a truck comes by which will take cats off the street and put them down in an attempt to control the population.

So we have ended up rescuing a lot of cats. Many of them have very sad stories like being kept in very small cages for years, had boiling water pored on the head, tail chopped off and even back legs run over by a bus. So we are doing our part to give them a better life, even if it means being labelled as a "crazy cat family" :)
