Ok I'm gonna watch One Piece now, having come to terms with the fact that Netflix will kill it before it's had a chance.

@donncha no we're hybrid but loads of latitude

@nonsequitur @donncha "Actually, Sineád, I can write code AND watch Clone Wars at the same time, thank you very much."

alisca,

@nonsequitur I have Beoplay's which I got on sale last month but I haven't used them for noise cancellation yet. Just late night gaming. I will bring them in next time.

Gonna cry off tomorrow tho. Just drained from all the blow-by-blow accounts of people's weekends. Got nothing done. Not even a single episode.

alisca,

@nonsequitur @donncha eating and typing. Doesn't fool anyone.

Mom is up and dying to see the Karcher electric mop in action. I have assured her that I am not a manky bastard and that I do, in fact, clean the house.

I have left a small coffee stain on the tiles for the last 3 days as a test

alisca,

@devxvda please publish your findings

last night I stepped outside for a minute then sat down because a haunting cello and violin piece was being played by people down the street and there's something magical about live music floating over to you on a night breeze so I stayed there becoming a little melancholy, probably one step away from imagining myself as the abandoned lover in a serious sexy french film when suddenly a bee all yellow fluff and orange pollen flew up my nose and this folks is how the universe keeps us humble

alisca,

@ElleGray keeps us bumble, actually

The sheer audacity of Amazon to persist with Season 2 of The Wheel of Time.

Are we sure that Bezos simply hated the books?

I just saw what I thought was a wrapped Chocolate Orange removed from its box on the kitchen counter

But it was only a fucking mandarin.

Gutted.

Ok I'm gonna be the first to say it.

Report and block me if you want, I don't care. I seek the truth like a moth to a flame.

Here goes.

Poor Gollum.

alisca,

@jjcelery oh brutal

Look away

Dinner at Chapter One last night. Gorgeous food. Phenomenal wine. But I will never financially recover from this 😬

alisca,

@kd @daithimacthomais would recommend The Pier House in Howth for a great fine dining/overdraft testing experience

alisca,

@Gina yes, yes, sorry season 5. Getting BINGED as I type.

Why do SURGEONS wear masks in an operating theatre, along with all their attendees?

Is it because they are worried about catching a disease from their patient?

Or is it - and hold on for dear life here - so that THEY don't infect an open wound with a disease they themselves may be carrying?

alisca,

@anubis2814 it's been standard to wear masks in surgery since the Crimean War. That's the only reason: to protect the wound.

A mask does nothing to protect the wearer. Your eyeballs are just as good a receiver of airborne disease as your mouth or nose, even better in many cases.

The idea that a mask is a shield is dangerous bullshit.
