Misheard and Misunderstood
Rachelswipe says: My niece - after months of begging - was finally allowed to get a hamster, and her grandfather was utterly horrified to learn that it had been called "Nipples", a pretty good name for a pet if you ask us. Alas, it was only the more mundane "Nibbles" - what have you misheard or misunderstood, with truly hilarious consequences?

You typed 'worth' there.
When spoken after a numerical value of pounds, it naturally suggests a monetary value, as opposed to a weight.

getting clients the result they want is challenging and rewarding, especially when the area is academically complex. unless you've practised in it for at least a few years, so you get to do the good stuff, you'd have no idea.
what we can all agree on is that maths and science people tend to be severely lacking in social skills and attractive women. which was my point. any comparison between law and science was baggysock's and baggysock's alone.

Yeah, but law is only complex because of arbitrary human bullshit.
Plus, someone always knows how it works, because they either came up with it, or had it explained to them in detail. And we could choose to make that shit a lot simpler if everyone was less of a massive douchebag.
On the other hand, science is genuinely complex, and actually has to be figured out by people... you can try and invent arbitrary science if you like, but that lumps you in with creationists, homeopaths, scientologists, and people who eat toast without any butter.
