Totally SHOCKED by some inflated animals.
At the same time the meaning of the word shocked is being deflated.

A mine is a terrible thing to waste

This internet thing is amazing! Letting people use it: worst idea ever!

And a waist is a terrible thing to mind.

I have the sinking feeling you torpedoed another ToTD. How much U-boat that you get responses, anyway?

This bomb definitely did not float.

I agree you totally landed that one.

The solution is Twelve Monkeys
A monkey is slang for £500
£500 * 12 = £6000

Why is
£500 known as a monkey?
American always curious about British(again American and not completely sure what to call this) slang
|
|
|
|
|
Same reason £25 is known as a pony. Although, 'pony' can also mean something less pleasant.

Triggered by Richard's post below.
What annoys me really is that they did not get the redirection of MSDN pages to MS Docs work properly. If you have a MSDN link for a wide version of an API function, it redirects to the ANSI version at MS Docs!
That happens even when already at Docs because all the links are MSDN links. Open for example GetFileVersionInfoExW function | Microsoft Docs[^] and follow links there like the one shown as GetFileVersionInfoSizeEx which links to https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/Aa969435(v=VS.85).aspx. But that is automatically redirected to Docs which is then GetFileVersionInfoSizeExA function | Microsoft Docs[^] instead of the expected GetFileVersionInfoSizeExW function | Microsoft Docs[^].
As a result, all existing answers here at CP and elsewhere containing MSDN links to API functions will now open the ANSI version when clicked. Another side effect is when inserting MSDN links now here at CP, the ANSI title from the Docs page is inserted while the link itself is still to MSDN.

I never liked the newer version of the documentation. Probably because I'm an old fart who likes to see documentation that is actually designed for programmers to read.
|
|
|
|
|
Same for me. But the MSDN online documentation is gone now.
The only advantage is that the links are now meaningful.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hey, you can fix the links - once opened - by replaciny the trailing 'A' with a 'W'.
That wasn't possible (and necessary) with the MSDN numeric links.
|
|
|
|
|
But they could have done that in the first place ...
