The stupid questions thread.

I'm in need of a young whipper snapper here, someone who's up to date with what all these emojis and things are. I was just sent an emoji/gif that has two blue feet walking and I'm not sure if this is like forget about it, keep walking, get ready I'm coming over or something in between.
I was out of the game for about 25 years and things have changed a bit in that time. Not including the couple of dates I've had in the last month with the text sender, the last dates I had were organised over a landline with my late partner.

I am far from an expert on making these sort of liaisons into anything serious and on the rare chance they prosper I still manage to fuck it up with unbelievable form, but I have a little experience in conversing woman this decade.

This isn't an emoji I have come across but to help you out I used it this evening with 2 women I am liaising with...neither of them knew what it was and just thought I was sending random emojis. So then I googled it and got a mixed bag of results. Perhaps it indicates that you guys are making connectivity progress (such as baby/first steps) or she feels you are on a journey/adventure together. But it may also be a warning to tread carefully. Perhaps you have probed a sensitive topic?

By contrast I recently sent someone a sperm whale, water spurt, and erected umbrella emoji. I'm partial to the volcano one as well. Enojis make no sense, but somehow mum figured out what I wanted for dinner!

I don't have a favourite, I just get which ever bottle is on sale.

Back to the world of neon piss...I rode past a pharmacy today en route to work. I called in and fuck me! Every soluble tablet option I could imagine was there on sale as was the pills and powders and fuck me it was confusing as all fuck. So I asked the pharmacist what I should get. She said whichever of the multivitamin pills was on sale was the best as they all had roughly the same ingredients. She also said the solubles weren't much use beyond hydration. But she did also suggest I could just eat well/balanced and not need any. I am not doing food well at the moment so opted for these as they were on a zillion % off sale...

So there is 120 pills in there for $36, so at 30c a pill I'll see how I feel in 120 days.
 
I see the multi's as a cheap 'can't hurt' option. I go for the cheapest I can get at chemist warehouse, that and fish oil (I don't eat much fish). 30c a pill is in the flash end of town mate I'm down the 6c a pill end :D

Why Doesn't My UV Black Light Make Pet Urine Glow?

UV black lights are used to spot old animal stains like dog or cat pee that aren't visible to the naked eye. Black light torches shine wavelengths that cause the proteins and phosphorus in pet urine to glow, exposing the cause of odours and concealed stains.

Just keep asking. I heard that DJT wasn't that orange until he made a business trip to Russia. During that business trip a group of hookers were paid to do a berocca vitamin laden piss on him...apparently he believes it to be the fountain of youth! Of course he now has a horrible stain all over him.

Only on his face.
 
Brains Trust.

Never had to deal with this before because every bike has just worked.

Sunrace 12sp cassette, XT chain, XTR derailleur.

Goes into larger cogs no wukkas, refuses point blank to come off 1st gear, but then for the rest of the cassette the cable is too loose and will double shift.

I've had a bit of a play with the B-screw, tweaked the cable tension. That's about it.

Check chain length and shifter cable resistance.

Chain is definitely not too short, nearly destroyed a brand new chain on my well worn 34t chainring, had to put the Melrose Special 32t on for now.

Cable was fine for the XTR cassette that was on it, but worth a look.

Existing stuff that's untouched but starting to play up, or fresh bits/recently worked on bits? Routing the cable the wrong way round the derailleur looks annoyingly correct but causes similar problems.

New chain & cassette. Everything else was pre-existing
