Wow that's going to take some work. In these parts accents differ significantly between towns that are only a few miles apart. And this project doesn't even take into account dialect. People will generally read the written paragraph without translating into dialect, however when conversing they may use what amounts to a different language.
I agree with Skipweasel, but I suspect that the division between the two groups can be explained simply. Those who "can't" do IKEA instructions simply can't be bothered to look at them and probably can't follow any instructions.
I've never come across any self assembly furniture that was difficult to build, but I know many people who claim all self assembly furniture is impossible to build. Since there are no special skills involved in assembling this furniture I can only attribute this inability to an unwillingness to follow instructions.
Gryt it's called a defence capability. The point is that you have this hardware to defend your country. OK so that's probably a difficult concept for a merkin to grasp, but there you go, the rest of the world is a funny place.
Guy Fawkes? Folk hero? There's an odd concept. The tradition of burning an efigy of Fawkes on a bonfire, is a s symbolic execution of Fawkes and what he stood for. I think the term we're looking for here is folk villain.
You'd hardly expect a protestant country to consider a hero a catholic who tried to assassinate the king and head of the church, would you?
There is a problem with #2. While it is true that sugar doesn't make kids hyperactive it does give them more energy, just like it will give anybody more energy. And it's not just sugar, any readilly processed energy has the same effect. The thing is it's more noticeable in kids, because they're smaller. The energy in a Mars bar has got a lot more mass to drive in a 200lb adult when compared to a 50lb six year old. Any parent can tell you that kids will be more active after something like a pasta lunch. If that simple fact wasn't true pro cyclists wouldn't fill up on pasta before a race.
Another thing that's not true is that kids "burn out" after eating sugary food. OK so maybe the energy peak is higher and quicker from eating sugary food than from eating other more "healthy" food. However they will end up back at the same baseline whatever they have eaten. Sugar doesn't mysteriously sap their energy. That Sportacus has a lot to answer for.
Kind of unsatisfying. If you're going to drop anything on a car (tonne of water, grand piano, another car, whatever) leave the car complete. In particular taking the glass out really spoils the effect.
@Juice - Those giant pumpkins couldn't be considered food even if you were starving. The texture and the taste are disgusting. Just like most freak fruit and veg, they were developed for size not flavour or nutrition.
Remind me not to buy a Chevy. That thing is totalled and there's barely a mark on the SUV. Or maybe it was rigged
BTW the cop had every right to be there, even if it was a closed set. He was responding to an emergency call. What I want to know is how come the cops (doing a bad job of) securing the perimiter didn't respond to the emergency call? Is a film set more important than an emergency or is it just the film set pays more into the city's coffers?
Bunnies eating wiring is nothing new. Thirty years ago we used to get regular telephone failures due to rabits chewing the insulation. In the end the telco put in armoured cabling.
Yeah, Vincents were great just so long as you didn't need to go round any bends. BITD a Vincent was considered just as effete as most plastic rockets are these days. It was a rich poseurs motorcycle just like that MV is today.
The rule to allow mobile phones on flights in Europe is very recent. Yes mobiles can interfere with all sorts of electronic equipment, we're all used to having them interfere with sound systems. However critical systems tend to be immune, it's engineered in. So can they effect aircraft control systems? Unlikely. Older planes may be effected, but older planes are more reliant on manual control.
It's like the rule against using mobiles in hospitals. I suspect as long as there is the slimmest chance of their interfering with any system on which lives depend then the best risk management procedure is to ban them outright. Anyhow anybody who can't do without their mobile for a few hours needs help.
However one thing that is significant is that, on most flights, you'll find your phone won't work anyway. I remember a ferry crossing a couple of years ago (less than 100 miles)one woman got extremely uptight because her phone had no signal for much of the crossing. She even complained to the crew. A helpful crew member asked her if her call was urgent, because if it was they had radio telephones on the ship she could use. She replied that she needed to send a text to a friend to ask if she wanted some duty free. Sad.

Delta means difference. That's like saying the difference difference in speed.
