I figured that would go without saying

Might give that a listen on a slow run on a wet day!

Exactly! Where are the people with relevant knowledge and the characteristic of overthinking things?

Do snails get stuck?

Oh, I don’t mean that I’m planning to harvest the little fuckers in my garden. I’m just curious if the substance has any properties that would make it completely useless or dangerous.
I was trying to wash it off my hands and noticed I had to give it a good scrub, but it was still slimy until it was all gone.

I get it as well, but some people need something a bit more solid to realise just how stupid something is. I haven’t looked at circuits since high school, but if I see something that just straight up doesn’t work, that’s undeniable.

Maybe much the same as when we last had a general election in the UK.

There’s a bit more context to some of these (UK).
If you say you’re getting something out of the boot then it’s going to be out of the car, but if you’re putting on your boots then you’re probably putting on some sturdy footwear.
When used as slang, a knob is definitely a dick, but it’s also used in door knob (just a lump to pull on, rather than a handle) or can be used as a quantity of butter, i.e. a knob of butter to go on your toast.
Biscuits can include crackers, but generally they aren’t baked goods with raising agents or yeast.
Chips are not french fries. They’re in between French fries and potato wedges, and the best ones are crispy on the outside but soft on the inside. Some people think they shouldn’t be crispy, but they’re wrong.

I suppose some ILCs could be used for selfies

I suppose in a crowded convention space where you’re trying to get full lengths of people you could get to that distance? Surely you’d still want a longer lens though otherwise everything’s going to be wildly distorted?

And there’s no safe walking down the street, cycling round town, or climbing outdoors, but we don’t need to let ourselves be paralysed by risk.
- Comment on Growing number of adults avoid booze, NHS survey suggests 3 months ago:
It feels nice, can be tasty, and in moderation (which is less than most people believe) not unreasonably harmful.
