    It would be nice if you credited the original source, that the GRG have ripped this from. Complete charlatans.

    I expect that would run rather like the tennis: men's doubles, women's doubles, and mixed doubles.

    *nod* When I get some more time I'll try and knock some more off. Some of them will be dead.

    The main problem with Lewis Goodall is that he looks like the default mii on Wii Sports, and that behoves me to conclude that he is exceptionally dull. I reckon his favourite colour is beige.

    If I were you, I'd make sure I was facing away from Owen Jones in this arrangement. The guy's so full of shit that if it was the other way round I fear you'd end up with a very unpleasantly tinged member.

    During lockdown, I started a custom of sending a fact every day to a trivia-loving friend who was finding it quite tough. It provided both of us with a lot of fulfilment, and I spent a lot of time finding the perfect fact each day. He read them every day, and would react or comment on every one. After a year and a half of facts, he sadly passed away unexpectedly. It was a very hard loss to take, and the fun custom was shelved. I mentioned how much I missed doing it to a friend many months later, and he encouraged me to consider starting it up again, and he'd be more than happy to be the new recipient if I felt able. After mulling it over, I decided I would start it again. Occasionally it'd be mentioned to another person, who would ask to be signed up. It's now sent to half a dozen friends every evening, and it's pretty special for me not just knowing that I'm giving them something small to look forward to each day, but that I also get to interact with them each day. Definitely has improved my mental health, and I'm sure my original friend would have been delighted knowing that the daily facts were still operating.
  7. I recently learnt that there's such a thing as "left-dressing" and "right-dressing" in the tailoring industry, which apparently refers to the side of the body that a guy's dick rests when attired (generally it's towards one leg or another). Apparently the overwhelming majority of men are "left-dressers", meaning it rests by their left leg. It's not something I've ever really thought about before, but there seems to be an awful lot of backing for this. I tried changing the present orientation of mine, and it definitely felt wrong, even though I've certainly never given the arrangement any conscious thought.

    Even then, you'd locate the year first. Year-month-day I'm fairly fine with because it also makes logical sense (it's still ordered), though I think it looks a bit clunky. What I take exception to is the month coming before the day and the year, which makes no logical sense at all and looks horrible. The day comes in the month which comes in the year.

    Nowhere near the level of acclaim of Rex, but this guy https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackie_Rea reached 92. This guy https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geoff_Thompson_(snooker_player) would be 94/95 if still alive, but he only barely makes the cut of professional.

    The month first date format. It's a truly horrible system and I can't understand why anyone would use it.

    A bit snarky of them to remind everyone that he never made a 147 break, but that he once got so close by making a 146. It'd be a bit like if Tim Henman died and the ITF tribute included a reminder of him being two points away from reaching the Wimbledon final in 2001.

    I have it on good authority that they are correctly positioned, but I'm fairly willing to have the matter examined by a professional* *provided he's young and athletic

    Oh the chance would certainly be nice... (there's zero truth in my employing any of these techniques, in case anyone mistakes me for actually being a psychopath...or at least more of one than I admit to myself)

    So do I, but I've yet to receive international acclaim for it.
