[aimeeandbeatles]

The last time I tried to do pushups (stupid school gym thing) I wrecked my wrists.

By narrow space between hands I assume he means this:

 

[Mango Elephant]

Oh, I don't do them like that. I put my hands apart more. Maybe I should do diamond pushups, if they're better for you.

 

[Gamemaster77]

Oh, I don't do them like that. I put my hands apart more. Maybe I should do diamond pushups, if they're better for you.

They work on your triceps more. Which, contrary to popular belief, has most of the visible muscle mass, not the biceps.

My grandma sent me $100 and a Baseball bag for my birthday!

 

[Takhisis]

You're totally not baiting for a birthday thread, eh?

At first no.. but now that you mention it..

Fun evening. Met and went out with some friends to local club (bistro/bar type club, not nightclub). I had to babysit my friend for forty minutes before dinner because he was quite drunk (so rather paradoxically, he was sobering up as the night went on), which was slightly awkward, given his propensity to tell adolescent lads that they're too young to smoke, but quite entertaining nonetheless.

I have some newspaper articles with quotes from interviews. I have these interviews in full so I know what they say. A lot of the newspapers use "..."'s where wheres a bad word and this amuses me for some reason because why are people so afraid of bad words in a newspaper?

 

[SuperJay]

They're not "afraid" of bad words. Generally a reputable newspaper won't print profanities unless they are especially newsworthy for some reason - like Dick Cheney swearing at Patrick Leahey all those years ago. The members of a rock band swearing in an interview is not newsworthy in the slightest, so there's no reason for the paper to print those words.

The BBC actually included the f-word in an article today, but that was the first time I can remember them doing so.

 

[GamezRule]

Link please?

They used the "c" word before on a report about Cantona didn't they?

 

[Arakhor]

I can't actually find it now, but the BBC search engine is quite extensive. Try searching that.

I don't remember about Cantona, but in a recent piece about Jeremy Hunt, Culture Minister, two different people managed to voice an obscene Spoonerism on live radio/TV.

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

Isnt a Spoonerism when you mix up two sounds?

 

[Arakhor]

Well, it's more accurately known as 'metathesis', but that's the general idea.
