Often cited when I was an Instrumentation Technician :yeah:

If you knew how many boats are built with this ''standard'', Mongolia wouldn't be landlocked enough for your comfort :haha:

I shudder at the thought :)

:subsim: :D From one acetone brain to another. I love you man (in a purely plutonic sense of the work). I even have the "Betonov look" going, with my dashing goatee.

In regards to the photo, it is clearly symbolic of the novel "Crime and Punishment", how Raskolnikov clearly planned out his crime and executed it.

Or
It is symbolic of what Indian cricket is going to do to Aussie cricket this year. (Pay up Jim:D)

Or I think all signs point back to Betonov's Freudian interperatation.

Or is clearly shows that Steed does not know how to make a sandwich and needs to be retrained.

Or it means Steed needs to take his meds today, because Steed should have used an avocado, as using a banana is a clear sign of mental illness.:know:

You sir, are clearly nuts.:/\\k:

I decided to attempt a reconstruction of the incident in the hope I could shed some light. Lacking a banana, I had to wing it with an apple. Couldn't be bothered with a rule so I used my thumb as as a rough guide to 1". I have to say, I'm no further forward.

The only thing my nation agrees on 100% :D

Being german, i can certainly analyze the OP's pictures.

A british(?) technician(?) tries to measure a piece of bread, to get two exact halves, for wrapping his banana. We can only speculate why he wants to do this, but after seeing how the windscreen wipers of a british Bedford army truck work, i do not ask questions anymore.

Faults: he uses an inexact british 'Stanley' tool, which of course is unprecise and not up for the job.
As you can also see, he does not even use the scale of said tool, but the wrong side.
The developing 'cut' being executed with an equally inappropriate tool like a pencil (or a flintstone blade?) is thus out of centre, and leads to the unsatisfying fit of the developing two non-halves.

"Skrelp is a brown aquatic Pokémon that resembles a marine animal similar to a seahorse called a sea dragon"

Ah!

The mind boggles :doh:

I am with Catfish here, looking at the formula but not at those distracting pictures with bananas etc.

If Catfish's definition of "Skrelp" is true: "a brown aquatic Pokémon that resembles a marine animal similar to a seahorse called a sea dragon", which I think is true, then it all makes sense: Playing Pokémon is a life hack or rather a life hack.

To adress Sailor Steve's construction worker joke. Here is one from Germany: When you have done some wrong construction work, like, lets say, building a wall where there should not be one, or you have bricked the entrance door, then people say: " Watt nu' ?. I think we need the Chinese "Watt nu'" now. In English: "What now?" I think we need the Chinese "What now" now. It all makes sense.

Kelp.

And yet you have successfully replicated the experiment. If you can accomplish this with other types of fruit you may be close to providing mankind with an answer.

An answer to what is probably best left to a further set of experiments. I have no idea what they should be and what products should be used, but I feel confident that you may save the world from...something.

Maybe we should build a superduper computer.

FWIW the experiment was planned on a super cooled Cray.
Is that super duper enough?:O:

My guess? Someone with waaaay too much time doing something that has entranced others with waaaay too much time...


You know, kinda like the Kardashians...


<O>

Hey, I think that was a construction worker joke.
