I'm 90% sure that the 18-24 year olds understand this as he/him, she/her etc and the over 65s understand it as Mr/Mrs/Miss/Ms etc


The rest think they're being casual but are rightly held in disdain by young and old alike.

LOL.
Yep. Seems a perfect example of a survey failing by interpretation.

What, nothing from Tintin in the Congo? 😄

So apparently an F-35 crashed into the South China Sea, and the US Navy is racing to recover it before the Chinese get their hands on it. Hope they succeed.

I'm reminded of the discussion way back on Paradox about the Chinese jet running into a US P3, and all the sympathy for China at that time.

Frasier & Niles play Bloodborne:

This will be funnier if you're familiar with Frasier and Bloodborne.

That's a weird intersection 

I miss the Bloodborne part of the Venn diagram, sadly.

Yes it's really weird but quite specific to my interests.

That news about the Indian family dying in the snow in Canada.
It makes no sense.
Why would you want to sneak out of Canada to Canada Beta?
Are Canadian immigration authorities better at their job?

That's nothing, there is a V-2 inspired reference!

Right now I don't think there's an official word as to why this family was trying to enter the United States.  Usually it's easier to immigrate to Canada (especially for refugees.)  The US-Canadian border is the largest international border in the world at almost 9000 Km; it's impossible to patrol the entire thing.  The area where this family was found (bordering Minnesota and North Dakota on the US side) is sparsely populated with few official crossings.

A smuggler was caught with some other Indians in the us. On of the theories is that this family was part of a larger group that got separated
