Odds on chance he leaves in a box; might have to save the vindictiveness for everyone using him.

「かしべっそう…？あ、エアビーアンドビー！」

Hah, yes.

Also, having learned Japanese mostly from reading, I get "oh that's a literary/poetic/obscure kanji joke word, you'd never us that in every day life" quite a lot.

This is our dog's après shower stare. Although from my perspective it's the post rolling in fox shit stare.

Yep. Here it was "we think your child should be tested, via the NHS the actual diagnosis would be 6 months after they've left school, if everything goes smoothly."

Nobody's even mentioned extra time in exams, although given the difficulty eng lit poses I could see a reason to.

Never heard of him. Probably on one of those lists that were fashionable last year.

Definitely a film for the big screen, the opening scene was enormous for it's time - I still remember the effect it had on 5 yo me. Probably didn't notice the dialog back then...

The attention to detail in the model work for the FX does still stand out esp. compared to the modern 'clean' CGI.

How does this book work in Japanese?
I half think it might fall into the overlap of English and Japanese humour, with the happless main character in a unbending bureaucratic universe.
And half that is just too English to survive the translation.

Currently the best selling foreign book, apparently.

Having driven in the US, I think speed is well below being clueless morons in their road safety problems.

Joy.

The worst I've had to deal with is the contents of my daughter's lunch box the day before the autumn term started.

Had to hose it down outside.

If the smell lingers, ozone generator, and go out for the day.

Most built up area enforcement is meant to be about reducing KSI rates, rather than accident rates per se.

Here, the huge new speed bumps outside the local primary schools have proven unpopular with just the sort of range rover owning twat that normally drove 35+ in the 20 limits over the old ones.

I expect this graph in particular can be explained by the 3 year waiting list for an NHS diagnosis, which you get on to after a 6 month review period, if your school is willing.

Whereas anyone that can afford the £1500 private fee...

Not that I'm telling you anything you don't know.

Our VW once swerved me away from a crack in the road into the path of oncoming traffic and then panic braked to a halt in front of it. Luckily the driver coming the other way was paying attention.
It regularly hits the brakes hard, briefly, for parked cars on curves if you're doing 30mph+.

In a video game sort of way. But it works by reducing power and then increasing it again when you pretend to change gear, while playing engine noises through the stereo.

I'd much rather have all the power all the time. And be able to turn the traction control down, if they're going to add toys.

The best bit about my OH's ID3 is that you can turn off the engine braking entirely, because electric cars only have engine braking if you cause them too.

The worst thing about it is it's easily scared and keeps wanting to slow down and on occasion emergency brake.

Hyundai are being them pretend to have gears, which is pretty sad really.

Sure there's new stuff, and more details.

Family details has been a required part of "this is not a visa application, honest" ESTA for years, it's not new.
