The questions-not-worth-their-own-thread question thread XII

I have this weird formation on my left hand. It's three faint patches of lighter-appearing skin forming a triangle. Sometimes it's there, sometimes the skin appears normal, but eventually, the spots re-appear, always in the exact same spot.

What exactly is it?

You're a cyborg, and that's your "low battery" light.

 

[madviking]

Its...MELANOMA!!!!

Nah, just fooling around.

 

[cardgame]

it's meaningless

I didn't even notice it until I saw them circled, so I wouldn't worry about it.

EDIT: IIRC, if you have very light skin, it sometimes might appear mottled. That might be it.

Heathrow express - fast (15 mins) but expensive (£18). Standard commuter rail (heathrow connect) - med fast (25 mins) med price (£8). Tube - v cheap but v slow, heathrow being the end of the line. The bus is kind of irrelevant since your destination is right next to the rail terminal. Taxi would cost more than the train and be much slower. If youre driving a hire car you want directions to leave the airport to the m4 eastbound (often refered to as the westway), and for gods sake take a care not to look for directions to "london" since three of the four possible exits are all labelled "london".

Thanks! Standard Commuter Rail seems just right.

I thought you weren't supposed to use the Heathrow Connect all the way to Paddington - that they wouldn't even sell you a ticket - they want you use the express.
It seems they have changed the policy, that you can buy the ticket online:

You have too much time on your hands...

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

What exactly is it?

I have the same sort of markings. its just a spot where there is less skin pigment than the surrounding area.

If you want to earn free karma points and know how, could somebody please tell me what this article is about? (I would copy/paste into Google Translate, but its ... sort of an image.)

Thanks

EDIT: BTW, not really looking for a full translation, just a quick summary.

Anyone care to recommend me a good pub where my Mother can get smashed in London? Somewhere near Nottingham or Baywater?

 

[Arakhor]

Nottingham is nowhere even remotely near London

 

[nonconformist]

Nottingham is a completely different city fyi

 

[nonconformist]

Oh wait, you mean Notting Hill Gate, right?

 

[Communisto]

Everything's near everything in your country. here is what your island looks like to North Americans, except less pleasant.

 

[Arakhor]

Charming, I'm sure

 

[Communisto]

I joke because I love <3

 

[nonconformist]

We get sun now?

 

[aronnax]

Oh wait, you mean Notting Hill Gate, right?

Ah yes. The names make me silly...

Yes, anywhere between Notting Hill Gate and Paddington.

 

[really]

There are plenty of bars in and around Notting Hill Gate afaik however I socalised just a couple of stops further along on the central line in Shephards Bush.
