Can't read it wrong

To the rake and Lothario, no doubt yes.

Maybe the product is aimed at ladies of the demimonde.

From an article about the possibility of Neanderthal traces in Denmark:

But well over 100,000 years earlier, Neanderthals lived in Germany, and it is not unlikely that the Neanderthals invented the area we know today as Denmark.

Pastries and all.

And butter cookies.

Ah! A comment from someone genuinely Dan-ish. :smiley:

IIRC the cabinet in a Danish baker’s shop with the pastries was labelled “viennoiserie” so those Germanic Neanderthals maybe took the tradition with them - but came via France

From a caption to a pic in an article about Antarctic research:

… the unscrewed submarine …

Wha … ???

I think the intent was ¨uncrewed¨. In otherwords an Unmanned Underwater Vehicle. UUV.

It was indeed. But when I saw it, I first thought it was in reference to a new mode of propulsion, which excited me, but needless to say I was disappointed.

Conjugal images were an impossibility; still, I thought it was good for a laugh in the Pub.

Ah, but it worried me enough to cause me to consult the oracle :slight_smile: When I queried Google, it suggested ´uncrewed´. Itch scratched. :laughing:

I got a spam email this morning with the title:

An Urgent Appeal for freedom from our CEO

I figured it was from a group with an evil CEO, but it was a message from the CEO of some organization appealing on behalf of Afghans (the people, not the bed coverings).

Not the dogs?

I’m strictly a cat person (well, Guinea pigs, too), definitely not the dogs.

Okay, here’s one with the headline, “Prison break: Insane inmate escapes”.

Only it’s not breaking news, but a compilation of supposedly remarkable (insane) breakouts (escapes) in the past. Talk about clickbait …

“‘I Want My Chicken’: KFC Costumer Calls 911 To Complain About Her Order”

Uhh … so … she … uhh … makes dressing for the cole slaw?

Not quite on topic, but it’s certainly wrong - infuriatingly wrong!

Headline in The Daily Digest

“Liz Truss joins list of shortest serving heads of state in modern history.”

A mundane repair and probably just scotched, demonstrative of the level of ability to be expected from political leaders nowadays.

I get why you are so upset.

Thank you. Appreciated.

Well I don’t get why the obviously wrong thing is infuriating. It’s just wrong. The other thing that might be wrong I am happy with.

So I had intended not to comment.
