If I’d never seen inside it, it probably wouldn’t bother me. Now I have, I’d probably snip that end off and rewire it to a rewirable socket bought from Screwfix or Toolstation or whatever.

You’ll often find in plugs or sockets that aren’t designed to be opened and rewired, that they’re an absolute no-standards shitshow on the inside - but they generally last and work fine. We hold human-rewirable ones to a much higher standard.

As long as we ignore the parts which happened outside of Europe…

To be fair, I’ve not memorised too many cooking instructions, but I can quote about half of “Monty Python’s Holy Grail” with reasonable accuracy, or tell you in great detail a number of stories of “what me and my friends got up to” when I was younger, or give you plot summaries and occasional quotes from half of the episodes of Blackadder, Red Dwarf, Star Trek TNG etc, and lyrics to hundreds of songs from the 1980s and 1990s… and I’m not exactly particularly talented in that area. It’s not a massive stretch to think someone could fairly easily memorise and story-tell one fairly long book.

Star Trek 55? Have they released a whole load of films without me realising?

Reval is Tallinn (in Estonia), so perhaps the thick fur enclosure is hot enough to work as a sort of “personal travel sauna”?

How could a comment section about some coins found in a pot turn into comment cancer?

Oh. I see. It turns out our calendar system is “woke”, “patriot Christians” are an “oppressed minority” and archeology is “theft from hard-working private landowners”.

Understood. Buying all the Star Wars games.

Where can I learn this skill?
