What did the Japanese chef play on the organ?
Toccata and Fugu
DAE have really contrasting/conflicting traits?
E.g. I'm a straight adult male who swears like Jeremy Clarkson, loves cars, guns, and eating/drinking like a hog. My idea of giving advice is saying 'Suck it up'
Yet I love dolls, mermaids, the colour pink, and picking up my cat and talking to her in a baby voice, and I'm very cuddly and romantic.
If Inspector Morse drove a Jag, then who drove a Volvo?
Inspector Norse
I saw a guy open his trench coat in an alley, revealing several discs
Looked a bit CD
Me: I just created a new superhero to rival Batman. I call him Catman
Friend: What’s Catman do?
Me: The capital of Nepal
Rest in peace, Ken Miles. 60 years ago today, we lost you too soon.
And here, the mother jaguar leads her cub to the water hole….
Just thought it was cool that I saw my successor in a very similar colour. I naturally had to take the adjacent space
What are some examples of some first names that are also verbs? (e.g. Rob, Mark, Chase)
Nicknames are also allowed, any language welcome.
Good news! The Dacia Duster is available as a 1:64 scale model!
I am so possessive of my toilet
I even marked my territory there
A Chevy guy, a Ford guy, and a Dodge guy are sitting around their campfire one evening
They admit they have their differences, but all agree that none of them would be seen dead in a Tesla
'If my son buys a Tesla' says the Chevy guy 'He is never receiving a cent from me again, and I won't be at his graduation or wedding'
'If my son buys a Tesla' says the Ford guy 'I am leaving that fella out of my will, and changing my legal name so he has nothing to do with me'
'I wouldn't punish my son for buying a Tesla' says the Dodge guy
'What?' exclaims the Chevy guy
'Why the hell not?' asks the Ford guy
'Because' the Dodge guy replies with a grin 'Driving a Tesla IS punishment'
I’ve noticed some excerpts from popular songs sound so nice on the sax, you’d think there were written for it
E.g.
Jennifer Lopez - On the Floor (Dance the night away, live your life and stay young on the floor)
Kesha - Tik Tok (you build me up, you break me down, my heart it pounds yeah you guard me)
Camilla Cabello - Havana (basically the whole song, but my favourite part is the ‘Got me feeling like Ooooooh’)
Typo: last line should say ‘they were written for it’
Some Chinese office workers were sick of putting numbers in spreadsheets, so they rioted
It was the Typing Rebellion
Some Top Gear references with my diecast cars (and suitable props)
What would be some believable names for my Singaporean character?
I read recently that many Singaporeans adopt western names that might be considered 'obscure' by Americans, Britons, etc. or even give their kids names that would give that impression.
As a recreational author, I would like to include a Singaporean character (woman of Chinese heritage, in her early 20s, studying business in Australia, speaks Mandarin, English, and Malay), and I would like a name that IS perhaps not a common Anglo name, but not so odd that it is offensive or ridiculous by Singaporean standards.
Thanks in advance, any suggestions are appreciated. She will have a Chinese family name, which I have not decided yet.
To those in car-unfriendly countries - what is it like being an enthusiast? What, if any, car culture exists?
E.g. I'm aware that countries like Switzerland, Denmark, Singapore, etc. tax cars heavily, and it costs a fortune to keep cars registered, insured, etc., and cars are generally not even necessary in those places.
But those countries are generally quite well off, and I have seen nice cars on the streets of all three, in addition to Singapore hosting an F1 Grand Prix, and Denmark being home to many of the WEC drivers who I like (to any Danes reading this, I have a huge soft spot for you thanks to WEC).
So I refuse to believe car enthusiasts don't exist in car-unfriendly places... just curious as to what car culture is like.
