Favorite bit was when he's asked about slavery and proceeds to talk about temperature scales

Hello! Thank you for reaching out. The name of this show is called "Saturday Night Live" and it is currently streaming on Peacock.

A colleague, a 50ish year old single woman, had a roofer doing some work on her place the other day.
She tells me at one point he asked if she had any duck tape. He then commented on it "you know we call that rape tape".

On so many levels....

Duck tape? 

[Grey Fox]

That's the proper layman term.

Duct is for degenerate professionals.

[Duque de Bragança]

What about duct tape then?

Duct is vague at best, outright misleading. 

[Norgy]

I think it stems from the fact that it was used to (before most men found Rohypnol) mend a broken hose or those ducts you have on the roof, leading rain water away.

I think I've officially passed middle age into old age.
Rather than just being people a bit younger than me, Gen Z are the worst.

We went for lunch to an Asian place called The Hu (no throat singing metal ).

Colleague asks: "What do you guys do for lunch?"
Me (thinking he's read the group chat): "Hu."
He: "I mean you guys."
Me: "Hu."
He: "No, where you're going for lunch."
Me: "Hu."
I did eventually tell him that it's what the place is called.

Heheh... like that joke with Hu, Rice, Kofi and Bush Jr.

Linked to from another forum I occasionally pop into:

Seems forums in the UK may be screwed an an unintended side effect of the online safety act?

Executive summary?

[Grey Fox]

That's grim.

Been banging the drum for ages - it's a dreadful law that everyone supports
