Things I wish I knew

Snapped this at a petrol station the other day. No idea what the story is about, but thought you'd appreciate the headline:

I'm not sure that is the same thing as people saying Swedish birds are hot, British people are posh and love tea, Americans are fat and Russians are rude. People love generalisations and they tend to be somewhat humorous.

I don't think the gypsy sweeping statement is quite the same thing or context, and I agree it is obviously wrong. Nationalities are too broad of a topic for such things to cause offence perhaps. All I know is The Simpsons had a hilarious episode involving Bart travelling to France on a foreign exchange trip where he was forced to make wine and it played up to many French stereotypes, and hilarity ensued.

Antifreeze tho

Gotta love the "sub"plot about the boy in Springfield too

Wanted to post a clip of when his parents asked Principal Skinner to tell them where he is. Classic line.

Type "uter just want closure" into YouTube.

File that under 'Things I wish I hadn't asked'

Pick at least two numbers above 31, as plenty do birthdays and you want to give yourself the best chance of winning it outright.

Why there are 47 buttons on the remote control for my £15 quid DVD player.

What can it possibly do except play DVD's?

And above 36 because plenty do roulette numbers too.

Not sure what number I'm up to.

Why do wooden toilets seats fall down so often while I'm having a piss?

Never has happened with a plastic one.

Do you lift it up when you're not having a piss?

Wooden seats default position is down.

Plastic can be up or down.

Ah! That's why it only falls when you're having a piss.

And there's more.

These two are generalisations (obv) but I've found them to be true a great deal and wondered what the reasons are?.

21. Why is the weather often glorious at 7am with clear blue skies and beaming sunshine and then deteriorates to a cloudy boring day seemingly far more often than the meh day improves to a wonderful day?

22. Why are women scared or at least perturbed by scuttling creatures/insects like mice or spiders, while men don't like flying stuff like bats or moths?

23. After witnessing a day of completely overblown abuse on Twitter, why do some otherwise civilised and reasonable adults behave like spoiled children if somehow someone tells them what happens at the end of a tv series they've been following? Grow up please, it is only a tv programme.

That, I fear, we will never know

Why do we need to put car tax in the windscreen still?   The tele is normally showing adverts telling us they know where to look if our car is untaxed and it can be scrapped if we don't do it, it's all on the computer yet we still need to show a bit of paper in the window for some reason. 

My car tax has gone up £70 since 2007.
