Same here. Unless I forgot that I knew that I knew.

From the SSL thread below.
Is "man in the middle" considered non-PC? Is anyone required to say "person in the middle" or "man/woman in the middle" or something equally ridiculous?
I know I know, stupid inane question but I'm bored...

No, because all women are well-behaved and trustworthy.

There are a few options here:
1) Your Significant Other is looking over your shoulder.
2) Your nose has increased in length by several feet.
3) You have never met Herself.

"Man in the middle" should not be confused with "middleman".
The former implies(if you are a man), that you are generally f*****, a rock between a hard place, between the devil and the deep blue sea, etc.  Also, being the man in the middle, between two women, means you are usually talked over, around, and under, as the women participate in idle chatter. Unless they are very, very attractive, avoid this situation, and if not avoidable, earplugs are recommended.
Middleman usually means that you do the f***ing, as you create delays, add cost, and provide essentially no added value.

It's only man-in-the-middle if there are two girls.

I still prefer to have one of the girls in the middle.

Auto spelling correction often turns a typo into a different word.

It says "Too busy: [...] two busy". Apparently the reports know how it's spelled. There's just a lot of too's and two's in the article

Well...is it the Daily Fail, so you have to make allowances.
But I'm surprised they didn't mention that Diana was murdered by immigrants who clubbed her to death with lowered house prices and bird flu - they normally do...

I actually had to check if the paper was called the Daily Fail (like The onion)
In our country its "How to lose weight", "How to save money" "Snakes to watch out for" etc. But the funny thing is that the newspapers in this country gets hefty subsidies from the government. Go figure, so some comedians asked if they should not fund the IKEA catalog as well, as they would also have some of the same information.

It's the inflammatory BS that I don't like -- it's quite easy to "cut to the bone" in parts of the arm where the bone is right underneath the skin, and I'm pretty sure I could manage a two-inch-long shallow cut (requiring only *ten* stitches) with a cheese knife, let alone a chainsaw.

I cut my finger "to the bone" with a scalpel while trimming some parts on an Airfix kit back when I was about 13. It bled a bit so I washed it with diluted Dettol, squeezed the cut shut and wrapped a band-aid tightly over it. No stitches, no ambulance, minimal delay to my important model-making task! I mentioned it to my mother a few hours later, she looked at it, put a fresh plaster on it and that was it - I still have the scar.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

I did the same thing with a razor blade when I was 8 - I was testing the sharpness (I was EIGHT, OK?) - this was first thing in the morning before my parents were awake.
I tied a handkerchief around it and waited until Mum woke. Then showed it to her, blood dripping into my other hand cupped below. Shetold me off for using a razor blade (which I wasn't meant to do without Dad there), washed it under the cold tap, slapped on a plaster and that was that.
I, too, still have the scar.
