Cheese plant posting

A U-tuber asks

how come over 3000 folk have watched part two of a clip I put up yet only 350 folk have watched part one?  Is it something to do with the star rating system?  Also who actually watches such things??

Cheese Plant - Part One

One pearl of wisdom on “Cheese plant posting”

  1. Consultant C Says:

    Deviant oddballs with nothing else to do. Perhaps the content is better in part two?

Provide common sense...

National Debt

Someone asks.

Some years ago I built a clock designed to show the citizens of the US how much in debt their country was.  It is now no longer big enough to cope with the scale of debt.  Should we encourage the US authorities to reduce the debt or should we buy another number?

2 lacklustre pieces of inspiration on “National Debt”

  1. Consultant C Says:

    Throw caution to the wind, borrow some money (Russia has shown recent lending form) and build a spangly new clock. Trim the edges with gold, emboss the hands with diamonds, and have chips and cheese for tea.

  2. Consultant K Says:

    I think the more appropriate question is whether to go for one or two more digits?

Religion, sex and politics

We have been asked

I have a young daughter and have decided that the world is an evil place and we have decided that she should be pure when it comes down to marriage.  For this reason she has agreed that she will not kiss (or anything else) a man until she is married.  How can I ensure we are successful?

    You could modify the technique if the Maasai herdsmen who use an “olor” - a physical incumberance - to prevent their goats from mating

    Alternatively, you could just not worry about it.

    I would pay some attention to your English though - the duplicated use of “have decided” makes you sound like a nutter. Come to think of it, so does the subject matter.

    Go away and never bother us again.

A dodo. Well known for its common sense.
