I once used a small and out of the way elevator that no one else seemed to use on the ferry between Newcastle and IJmuiden (note: that's an IJ, stop writing Ij, I've seen multiple official sites do it).
It seemed fine at first, going up .. but then suddenly down a bit, up again, then it stopped halfway between floors and opened on its own. I climbed out as quickly as I could, afraid that it would suddenly move.

The one and only Google result for "symposionic conversation"[^]
I found that actually amusing, that the only hit is the very event that I'm coordinating.

Just been listening to an interview with Dave Gorman on the wireless.
Second series of Modern Life Is Goodish starts tomorrow on Dave if anyone is interested.
I enjoyed the first.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

It's series linked into Sky+ already! 
He's a little predictable, but very funny all the same.
You looking for sympathy?
You'll find it in the dictionary, between sympathomimetic and sympatric

Yes, it is very comfortable humour, but there is nothing wrong with that.

I read the title as "Do I win a pizza" 
I am hungry for one right now

You may already have have won one!
The Bulgarian government is running a competition all year. All you need to do is get a large denomination note out and check if it's a winning one: if so you can exchange it for a pizza at any branch of Dominos. Winning notes have a unique number printed on them...

Sounds legit. No, really!

One of the reason why I hate men is : they can eat like pigs and still lose weight. If I eat something even a cookie and its immediately on my bottom. So that competition is off limits.
One quick note : The Bulgarian government is indeed running competition all year, but gathering one. The winning prices are higher taxes, higher bills, higher prices of items or if you are lucky all of the above

It seems to be a surprize to women that most men actually like curves (please note the plural)

Plenty of women can do that too.

Very, very true.

Curves on a woman are like pockets on jeans. It gives you somewhere to put your hands.

The UK government has been running that one for the last five years... 
Sadly, I can't eat all I wish and lose weight, not any more. When I rode motorcycles every day, drank like a fish and smoked like a chimney, yes.
But...I hardly ride at all, gave up drinking 7 or so years ago, gave up smoking ten years ago, and gained 20kg...

You know what they say, the sum of all sins is constant. That's why I'm very wary of "saints".

I heard something about human intelligence being a constant and the human population is growing.
And I remember a nice song about this topic Clickety

When I gave up t'tabs I gained around 10kg, but I have now lost it all over the last two years.

I suppose all you little nerds all have a NAS setup at home.
What do you use exactly ? Is it only a shared disk, or do you have an operating system running it (Linux or Windows ?)
