Comment on Prank of the day: Smile by Nick Robinson

Hilarious.
He tells people he’s going to photograph them, but he doesn’t, he videos them instead. He must use that little camera/video toggle selector, so the ‘victims’ have no idea. Quite naughty really! Watch as they struggle to hold a photo-pose for seconds at a time. The resulting mini video clips of a person almost but not quite staying still pay homage to Harry Potter-style magic photos, before the victim realises a side-splitting prank is taking place and quietly wander off.

Errr… I was talking about Esperanto being exclusively a second langauge, Megan. (Clue in the first sentence) …

This proliferation of cutlery is worrying. Three pieces is already too many and these new by hybrids just make it worse.
Anything that can be eaten with a spoon could simply be drunk (or slurped a least). Anything a fork can do, fingers can probably do better. All we really need is the knife which can double as a means to hunt food as well as prepare and eat it.
And I agree with Kevin, if we must hybridise the hybrids, it’s a ‘knorn’.

Not bad, But Marshall from How I Met Your Mother did a much better one with Simon & Garfunkels’ “Cecilia”

Stien is correct. Bono sings that he CAN’T live with OR without. He cannot live within any non-white area of that diagram.

That comment from Damocles had me in stitches

Stien, Surely he can only live in the white area. The with AND without you area would logically be a null space. The remainder is an indeterminate space which is neither with nor without you. It’s probably a taxation free area and hence ideal for Bono.

Er Stien, that’s the point. He can either live with, or without, you but not both where it overlaps. Either one or the other.

Nice one Stien, you just had to spoil it by being all accurate and correct and clever and stuff. Sheez. *grumpy face* Not gonna bloody retweet it now. And OI! Poke – suggest you do a GCSE in maths, and learn a lesson from the authors of Principa Mathmetica too – cos them twats were proved wrong by Godel. Nuff said.

Hm, I’ ve always learned that the intersect is AND, while Bono sings ‘with OR without you’ So actually he can’t live in the entire diagram…

surely it’s a Fo’spife?

Comment on Cutlery venn diagram by Roger

To my mind:
Spork + Spife + Knork = Spifork or Sporkife

Or, startting from scratch:
Fork + Spoon + Knife = Sporkife or Knorkoon or Foonife

So I’d have to go with Sporkife

Splayd is the brand name for a sporf, similar to Hoover/Vaccum Cleaner.

I need a fork ‘n’ knife, and while I’m in the kitchen, you for tea, or you for coffee?
