sorry last one...
the euro coin is only supposed to have the countries using it on its map (although the uk appears there occasionally)
leaving out norway and denmark means there's an extended donger in the top right corner of every euro coin :D

» Scars with history
The Joys of Football
This bastard game (I love you really...) has inflicted the following on me (in chronological order):
a) i was the first person in my school to have one of those 'cool' slits in their eyebrows, courtesy of an over-zealous wing back who missed the ball and toe-punted my head...
b) I have a nice variety of scars on my left knee; a combination of conventional surgery and keyhole has left a nice pattern following some nutter's attempt to remove my kneecap from my leg.
Having slid the ball away from him in a tackle, he promptly kicked right across the top of my knee joint; I didn't think too much of it until I noticed my kneecap sitting on the side of my leg rather than the front.
At which point I passed out...
c) A lovely 2" gash on the side of my right ankle. Having spent a season recovering from the above injury, 3 matches into my comeback I went over on my ankle in a tackle. Which wouldn't have been so bad if the guy I was marking hadn't also trodden on it...
The opposition physio wandered over nonchalantly whilst I'm writhing in agony on the ground and politely inquires "was that your ankle I just heard pop?".
He was 50 feet away.
I make no apologies for length. The ladies love it.
ps. I also have 2 matching scars on my forearms from an unfortunate ice-skating incident involving me falling over and some pillock trying to jump over me :)

MRI machines in hospitals
MRI stands for "Magnetic Resonance Imaging"
they used to be called NMR machines "Nuclear Magnetic Resonance"
but it was changed when people got a bit jumpy about being irradiated (and turning into the hulk)

oh yeah another one
the (admittedly lame) insult 'you suck' was originally a nautical put-down...
if a boat (we're talking sailboats here) had a large wake behind it the water would 'suck' at the hull and slow the boat down... leading to 'your boat sucks / is sucking' being a kind of insult, which we then ended up using on each other...
crap i know. but true! honest!
