  Someone should post this in ADHD Memes with the text “I’ve got ADHD and these organs therefore having ADHD is a pre-requisite to having these organs” and see if anyone notices.

  True. I ordered a book from them last week; it arrived in 2 days. Everywhere else, including Waterstones, was “oh we might be able to get it out the door sometime next year, if we can be arsed” so Amazon got the order.

  For that to be a useful simile you’d need to use some kind of reversible fire.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Seriously, you're probably dehydrated⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t recommend it. I tried increasing my electrolytic capacity once and found some little pills that seemed ideal. I had to eat a lot of them because they were only labelled “microfood” or something like that.

  The hospital staff were all very unprofessional. They all giggled when they discharged me.

  Well, yes and no. It’s true we started it. But then we had bigger fish to fry and handed it off to the UN. Who could have dissolved the whole thing and returned it to the previous state, but chose not to.

  No that was a song by David Jowie.

  Civilised countries like the UK and other European countries. Technically it’s not free because it’s paid for by taxation, but it’s free at the point of use: if I go and see a doctor, I don’t get billed, but I do pay 9% National Insurance tax.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Time to redraw America's borders in a way that finally makes sense.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Americans are so dumb when it comes to timezones we could just assign Maintana to GMT+5, Washconsin GMT+6 and so on downwards. It wouldn’t make any difference to them and it’d be a lot more fun for the rest of us.

  True story: “The meeting is at 1500 EDT”. “Your state is currently on EST so if I turn up at the specified time I’ll be an hour late. Are you sure it’s 1500 EDT and not 1500 EST?” “Yes, definitely 1500 EDT”. /me turns up at 1500 EDT to find the meeting has already finished.

  I misread IDOTA as IDIOTA.

  I’d be interested to know how I can pay my electricity bill with my free healthcare. Also I need to go to the supermarket today; how do I convert free healthcare into a trolleyful of food?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Simple. We let them get away with it. Compare:

  “Your PC is out of date” “Don’t be stupid, it’s only 2 years old and still works fine” with

  “Your phone is out of date” “OK I’ll buy a new one”.

  There needs to be a lot more of Answer A to Statement B.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Trump Mobile T1 Phone looks both bad and impossible⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe it’s a Samsung phone and a “Made in USA” sticker, shipped in as components and stuck together in the USA, thus fulfilling both “designed” and “made” in USA even though there are some foreign-made components (2). Then onshore those components bit by bit until the process is complete.

  Technically that’s 100% buffering.
