Take the day off and watch the gypsies being tasered instead. Best TV for years.

I do feel ever so slightly less angry at the world just reading this.

I am recording it all on Sky+ and no doubt will watch it time and time again.

I'll come over with some fine wine and cheese and watch it, one night, if you'll have me.

A superb idea. I will provide the port.

'GYPPO NIGHT'

Interesting fact of the day.
The taser was inspired by a fictional invention from one of a series of books about a boy called Tom Swift and is an acronym for Thomas A. Swift's Electronic Rifle.

I now expect everyone to either say they already knew that, or to quickly disprove this with FACTS, but I find it interesting. As you were.

Interesting indeed, but I smell a 'bacronym' here.

Possibly
but someone may bother their arse to look it up to confirm or deny this sooner or later.

Actually I believe bluey is right, here.

If a clever man like Badgo backs me up, that is more than good enough for me...

It sounds so implausible
But Wikipedia backs you up so it's clearly INTERNET FACT, I shall use this to bore someone in the future, thank you.

Someone needs to ask QI
If they say it's true, then that's good enough for me.

I'll look in my Big Book of General Ignorance when I get home.

What's your diary got to do with anything?

That'll be the new thing I learnt today, and I thank you for that.
