@fesshole My favourite is a former analyst in Hong Kong whose first name is Chlorophyll. Pretty cool when you think that without chlorophyll, there’d be no life…

Teaching kids in China in the 2000s, I had them choose "English names" from a long list of every cartoon character I could remember. I really hope my star student Tweety has changed her name by now.

Tempted to have an affair just to get a perfect kiss. Over the past three partners and marriage of 13 years all I've experienced is washing machine, chin drool and vacuum.

@fesshole Reminds me of telling a Russian studies PhD student dorm-mate that the murder of Trotsky with an ice pick was the perfect crime: the ice pick melted and they couldn’t find the murder weapon. Alas, they believed me.

His confession but I once dated a guy who couldn't understand how the Great Train Robbery happened. I asked him what meant. He didn't understand how these robbers went unfound for so long, or how they stole the trains as they can only go down the tracks.

@Kathbum We have a sinking fund for building upgrades. Even then, if something is outside of the scheduled improvements, we have to cough up. And yes… the roof is covered by all of us

Can the building you bought a flat in be like ‘hi we need everyone to pay £3000 each asap for a new roof’ when your flat isn’t part of the roof and aren’t maintenance fees meant to cover that?

@avc @avc interesting read... to what extent do you think that the development of secondary markets for earlier stage /less well-known companies will be bounded by the 'lemons' problem?

Im a Dr and met an attractive woman at a friends birthday party. Over the course of the eve she kept saying she should place me. Eventually, I had to lean in and whisper to her that I treated her genital warts. Horrified doesn't really express her face.

I've spent literally thousands of pounds on home recording equipment and software and I haven't recorded a single song. It's just too fucking difficult.

I wish that people who didn't believe in the pandemic and masks etc were forced to spend a shift with us on a covid ward and hold the hands of patients as they die away from their families

@fesshole There’s an operation for that. Pretty routine and not uncommon.

I would love to have an affair but the truth is I can't because I'm ashamed of my naked body as my ball bag hangs low and off my actual balls. I'm only just forty. I could have had an affair at least twice, and it's the only thing that's stopped me doing it.

@MyriamFrancoisC exactly right on the #MoralMaze" – the debate, by entirely focusing on whether the majority can criticise Islam, was entirely missing the point of real prejudice acted out daily against observant Muslims
