    Usually I've left the house by this time on a Saturday night, but this week I'm staying in and watching a film called "Split". Apparently a follow-up to "Unbreakable", which I really liked, so this one will probably be cack. Expectations, see?

    Quality as always I think they may have exceeded 98.6F over Christmas though, my festive grundies are looking a bit scorched. Maybe it's time I put some clean ones on, or at least turn them inside out

    No worries... Did the moisture resistant panties with the scorch-proof gusset I got you for Xmas not arrive? I chose the 'extra roomy' size btw, just to be safe.

    Surely the thermometer is in backwards. It's usually the bulb end that has to sense the temperature.

    I believe you have been given a bum steer, the fart temperature is probably a lot higher

    Bum steer, see what you did there I think you are correct Alan, the instructions were a bit hard to follow (Cyrillic lettering), and the illustration as you can see is misleading. I assumed the bulb on the end must be to keep me from 'accidentally' losing it

    Am I the only one who finds this confusing?

    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    I find it more confusing to refer to a non-binary person as "they". In what way are they plural? The third person singular is either 'he', 'she' or 'it'.
