That implies a pair of shoes these days would last long enough to need replacement laces.

Someone would be surprised
(a.) That the partner they demeaned, insulted and generally treated like rubbish would one day up and leave, and (b.) That I seemed to lack sympathy when they wanted to bleat about it? |

Why can’t speed cameras send a signal to every nearby toll tag when they’re tripped? Even if it’s not you, it’s a much more timely reminder of the cameras than advertising blather.

Yeah, why over complicate things. Ratchets, breaker bars, impacts, typically they're ¼, ⅜, ½ inch drive. Who gives half a crap about the non metric about that. Its sockets where the imperial makes less sense.
Same with measuring stuff. On a tape measure a number like 1659mm is a lot easier to process then say 56 inches and 12 sixteenths. |

Tyre widths are metric, profiles are percentages but rim sizes are still imperial..... Why.....

Nothing a chisel and lump hammer wouldn't fix.

Why is it that a builder builds, a painter paints, a developer develops and a writer writes, but a barber doesn’t barb?

After buying a new pair of boots you always step in dog shit?
What's worse is when you don't know you have, jump in the car with the heater on face and floor to be greeted by the putrid aroma of dog turd.
