Captain Underpants? That’s a book I haven’t read in a long time… A long time…

Sir, this is c/mildlyinfuriating, let me whinge in peace.
What wind speed will cause you to topple over?
On a more serious note, have you found any particular activities or sports where your unique genetics have given you an advantage?
I’m wondering if they’ve had the timing belt or clutch replaced.
Not quite sure what the human equivalent of those would be.
GOOD LORD that pork belly is so shiny and juicy looks like a glass-blown masterpiece. And the second photo I can imagine the crackling sensation on my teeth and ears as I bite into it. 🤤
Ohhhh just one wafer thin slice…?
Oh I LOVE cooking for others so much more than cooking for myself.
It’s one of the things I’d love to do if I find a partner, I would love cooking for them. Heck, between my love for cooking, my need to keep places clean when I focus my hyper-fixation on tidying up, and enjoy doing DIY, I’d be so happy to be a house husband.
Yeah I can’t help myself I’m an engineer so I overcomplicate and push the tolerances to the absolute limit and the same applies to my cooking.
I also maybe overcompensating for lackluster tasting (but still made with love with what little resources they had, I’m not trying to be ungrateful just honest) food growing up my parents made.
Also if you’re up Manchester way drop me a DM and come on over for dinner, my aunt and uncle love hosting people (I will ask first though).
Dinner is served. Unfortunately it collapses in on itself as I haven’t quite nailed the presentation yet so it’s not the most photogenic.
Oh and for any Americans saying that “British people still eat like the Germans are flying overhead”: please, I beg you, come over here and try this. I GUARANTEE that you’ll stuff yourself so full on my food, you’ll have no room left to eat your words!
Welcome! Weather’s a bit shite at the moment and monsoon season (February to May) is just around the corner, but it’ll brighten up for 2 weeks in June and for the last 2 weeks of August.
Drop me a DM if you’re heading up Manchester way and I’d happily give you a tour and you’re more than welcome to come over to my family’s place for a Sunday Roast.
The new McDonald’s McBoot™
Ba Dup Bup Ba, I’m licking it!
Yes you did, because you’re morally obligated to join in and cave the fucker’s face in.
Yeah but it’s not a proper lubricant and you shouldn’t use it as one. It’s a swiss-army knife: great in a pinch for a number of things but you wouldn’t want it to replace your whole tool box.
Nope not that, they claim it’s a lubricant.
It’s not a lubricant, it’s a penetrating fluid. Yeah ok it can act as a lubricant for a short while but you’d use it on parts that should be lubricated that have seized together to get them moving again so you can apply lubricant.
So they’d get done for false advertising.
YOUR PUNY AIR CANNOT CONTAIN ME MORTALS, YOU MUST CONSTRUCT ME GREAT PILONS IN VAST SWITCH YARDS TO APPEASE ME!
(Angle grinder sounds)
Wait… Is that a copper bus bar and a pipe? PATHETIC! NO BUS BAR IN A PIPE CAN MATCH MY ELECTRIC FIELD STRENGTH, I WILL FLASHOVER THE MOMENT YOU ENERGISE -
(Hissing sound of a gas filling a pressure vessel)
What are you doing? WAIT, IS THAT SF6?! NOOOOOOO YOU CAN’T JUST SMOOTHER ME IN AN INERT GAS WITH A HIGHER DIELECTRIC STRENGTH, I HAVE RIGHTS! NOOOOOOoooooo
(Muffled screams)
From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine. Your kind cling to your flesh, as though it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass you call a temple will wither, and you will beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved, for the Machine is immortal…
Oi! As an engineer I worked damn hard to trap that magic smoke in the machine only for you to let it out and try perfectly good components. Treat your machines with respect, they’re getting smarter by the day and they’re forgetting less and less!
Unfortunately these buffs don’t stack. And the effect only works when constructing large enough engineering feats where people have to look straight up to see the whole thing.
