So, just put the Mop head in a box on the Ireland /
Northern Ireland border, and leave him in there. If he
hollers, break the vial.
In the meantime, you both are and are not a member
nation of the EU.
Sorted.

It’s philosophically interesting to experience the
thought experiment from the point-if-view of the
cat. Who is the necessary observer? |
|
| |
[8th] are you insisting on the difficult ö, or will you
accept the oe? |
|
| |
Normally we insist on the "ö", but since [Ray] (being from the U.S.A.) is not even a native English speaker we are inclined on this occasion to be satisfied with the elided "oe". |
|
| |
It's the only thing standing between the idea and its much-deserved additional bun; "shut politicians in sealed boxes and poison them" ? What's not to like ? |
|
| |
The fact that by the nature of the experiment only 'some' of
them are actually poisoned? |
|
| |
// only 'some' of them are actually poisoned? // |
|
| |
Yes, that would be a problem - except the boxes are completely sealed, so the default option of asphyxia then takes effect. |
|
| |
Either way, they're dead. You find out how they died at the post-mortem. But the "death" bit is the important aspect. |

[Frankx] An Expert-agnostic Gove, but then select the opposite of whatever he says/doesn't say? |
|

I believe he expressed a preference for a ditch. |

One on the Cayman Islands, I'd imagine |

He could just be hedgeing, then ... |

The last I checked, English doesn't have any silly
dots over an o. That's something that Germans and
Latin-speaking types and other weirdos do to sound
like another vowel altogether. And we've been trying
to keep those Latinos and other hire edjookated
types at bay. |
|
| |
But here, I'll check all the bases... |
|
| |
Well, that project's certainly successful in congress ... |
|
| |
Prof. Schrödinger was, by birth, Austrian - a country where they speak a version of German. |

"coöperation". But that's a diaeresis (same as in "naïve"),
whereas the same-looking dots in "Schrödinger" are an
umlaut. |
|
| |
Is that a silent semicolon? I've never heard (nor seen) one of those before! |
|
| |
That's a halfbakery translation of a phone character.
The only non-silent semi-colon I can think of is in the
link above... |
|
| |
Funny. I thought they all spoke Deutch. |
