- Comment on Anon meets his gf's parents 5 days ago:
I think his stepdaughter, with her boyfriend, dropped off his son for the son’s weekend visit with him (him being the commenter, the father).
It reads like his son was visiting his stepdaughter’s boyfriend. Maybe it is that, but it’d be odd.

- Comment on Brexit has completely failed for UK, say clear majority of Britons – poll 5 months ago:
What’s the alternative? With fptp it’s labour or Tories and it takes a major shift to make one of the other parties a threat.
Labour and Tories both benefit from fptp so there’s no way theyre ever going to change it.

Haha I don’t think it’s about fear. It’s probably about having hundreds of years of using those metrics, and it being very baked in to the language used between people to communicate.
Nobody wants to have to translate between kg and stone all the time. It’s tedious. If you live in a country where all your interactions are going to be in one measurement then you’re probably just going to go along with everyone else.
Even down to ‘goin down the pub for a pint’ being a commonly used phrase which doesn’t have the same ring when it’s '‘goin down the pub for a half litre’.

As someone else said, it may be to see who’s likely to fall for more sinister scams, or a phishing scam to get people’s addresses etc

The aim of ‘chatting up’ seems different in a library :D

Was it bright? I’ve noticed I tend to do this when it’s bright and I can’t see the phone screen well as a result.
