I don’t phone the doctors regularly, but lately I’ve had a few problems nothing too serious I’ve phoned this morning at 8 am on the dot and after all the pre introduction information I was number 15 in the queue. Now like I’ve said I’m not a regular phone in person However I have just realised that if I skip all the introduction information and just press Button 2 I would be further up the list These regular phone in people know the tricks And now so do I All the previous time I’ve phoned over the past 30 years at this doctors I never new about press button 2
Consecutive ands in one sentence 5 The painter looks at the new sign he’s just painted The duck And kangaroo And says the gap between duck and and and and and kangaroo are different
Went to the pub in Hesket Newmarket and ordered a lamb shank, I know it’s hillbilly land up there but didn’t expect them to bring me a shrunken head
Imagine that the painter has done a sign, and then notices that the gaps between the words aren't the same....
This is class. Well the principals are class. I don't care particularly for the 40's or rigidly sticking to it, but the idea of a more simple life, less time with technology and repair and look after things rather than being rapacious consumers is admirable to me. Instead most people have 5 hours screen time a day on top of work, always buying the latest thing to keep up with the Joneses and consume vast amounts of convenience food because they "don't have enough time". I'm more guilty of some of the above than others, but they're still all amongst my vices to some extent.
It bloody is man, it took a p.m. (not sunak) to explain it. @Robertson, cheers for that...makes sense now. Quite clever actually.
It is tough to work out. I checked with Vince and he agreed I could put the explanation on: The sentence has ‘and’ five times in a row actually makes sense. The painter makes a sign that says “duck and kangaroo” The gaps between the “and” and the words either side of it were different sizes, so the painter says the gap between duck and “and” and “and”and kangaroo are different
While I don't particularly dislike technology, I'm made a continuous effort to f**k social media off. only place I post is on here. You see people these days in a zombie like state, walking out infront of traffic while heads down looking at their phone. Families sat round in a restaurant, not talking to each other, heads in their phones. Antisocial media I call it. As you've pointed toward, "Keeping up with...", I bumped into a bloke I used to work with years ago, older than me, he's a repo man now, making a fortune, I asked if this down to Covid, buy now, pay never. Company's latched onto people, selling them 90 Inch TVs they didn't need, to watch ****e on Netflix during lockdown, in a word, yes. Not saying a sit an pen correspondents to a pall in Australia or run down the street with an iron wheel, but I definitely have the outlook of if I don't need it, I'll not get it. Other than projet mayhem in Fight Club, Tylers outlook isn't a bad one.
