Next someone's going to tell us that the traditional 'choo-choo train drawn by a toddler' level crossing without barrier ahead sign is actually a representation of the driver's operational panel on an e320 "Javelin".



I didn't vote for Brexit for this.

Sorry, that should'f read 'choo-choo train drawn by a toddler in the 1930s'.

Apologies.

I always thought it was an old-fashioned camera too. I would sometimes ponder as I drove, on why such a seemingly whimsical choice of pictogram had been made.

The 'level crossing without barrier' sign is my favourite one. Comparatively rare too.

I didn't vote for Brexit BTW.

"Erinsborough" is almost an anagram of "Neighbours."

[Fangirl Three]

Well blow me tight.

How come I never noticed that in 1987?

I remember hearing that years ago, probably in a behind-the-scenes type show.

I want to know who the Brummie is who's speaking on the intro to that Ice Cube song "No Vaseline".

"When they was in London they weren't naow goood withowt fooking Ice Cube!".

At about 0.33...

[SiberianPrincess’sMidriff]

At what time?


In 2022, Kanye West stated in an interview that Ice Cube's lyrics had "really influenced" him to "get on this antisemite vibe".[12] Ice Cube responded by distancing himself from Ye's antisemitic remarks, tweeting, "I don’t know what Ye meant by his statements, you’re gonna have to ask him. I didn’t put the batteries in his back. Please leave my name out of all the antisemitic talk. I’m not antisemitic and never have been."[13]

The first released version of I've Never Been to Me was by Randy Crawford.

Van Halen's album 5150 isn't named after the amplifier:



but some Californian law about sectioning people or something.




In fact the amplifier is named after the album I though it was named after the valves, Oh, I was thinking of 5881

Sharks are older than trees. The species sort of thing, not actual living examples, as far as I know…

Eels don't have genitals until it's time for them to breed.

"Peeping Tom" was actually a supposed real person - who spied on Lady Godiva famously riding her horse naked through the streets of Coventry.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

I knew that.

[SiberianPrincess’sMidriff]

So did I
