- 24 man-card points for using the word "adorable" in a sentence. You have been placed on notice.

You lose 60 man-points for being so insecure that you worry about someone else using the word adorable.

I don't think it's the use of "adorable" in a sentence that's the real offence; it's the use of that word to describe a cat.

Doesn't matter whether it's a cat or an M1 Abrams[^], deliberately not using a word because it's somehow less-than-masculine is lame.
For what it's worth, the wife and I have had quite a number of cats over the years. Some of them were adorable. Some were not.

The M1 with it's little 105mm main is definitely adorable.

He's a very cute cat. He looks a lot like my cat Raphael, who did a lot of the same kind of stuff. I still miss him, even though it's been years since we had him put to sleep.

When I was in the Marines I started learning to code (back in 1985) so I decided to look into changing my MOS to Programmer. I went and took the entry level test for programmers.
One of the questions was "A bomber is flying at 36,000 feet and drops five 500lb bombs and three 1000lb bombs 10 seconds apart. How far apart do the hit the ground". I failed misserably.
After the test the examiner said I'd never be a programmer. I got up and left.
32 years later I'm still coding.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.

Doesn't it depend on how fast the bomber is flying? And does the weight of the bombs matter (stones and feathers and all that....)?
And, if it's flying over the sea, thy won't hit the ground at all!
Guess I'll never make a marine!
And... how old is the pilot?

Isn't the answer "10 seconds apart"?

Yes, that is the answer. It was a trick question (sort of) to begin with.

You're driving a bus and at the first stop 2 men get on and 4 women get off. At the next stop 3 women and 2 little children get on and one old lady gets off. At the third stop 5 young men get on and one of them is carrying a briefcase. What color is the bus driver's hair?

I suppose you have to be sure you're not asking a bald person that riddle!

I've always heard that with eye color.

The ship had New Zealand registry so the captain is dead from a heart attack trying to 'service' so many 'passengers'.
These questions are too easy!
