Anyone got really stupid questions that someone else on here might be able to answer?

[AlaskaElfForGin]

I only ask because I have a really stupid question but haven't asked in case you talk about me ...

So if someone else could ask something ridiculous first that would be great!

I’ve never been to a pop concert ( 62 and not likely to go now!)
If you are near the front or the middle for hours and hours how do you have a wee? Can you go off and get back to your place?

is the name Santa Claus a translation of St Nicholas? - yes, from the Dutch 'sinterklaas'

Are they nests or something else? - you'd definitely be able to see nests and they would look like balls of sticks in the tree branches.

There was a case involving conjoined twins where one was found guilty of assault, but the judge refused to jail him as it would have meant unlawfully imprisoning his brother.

Number 7 is for cooking potato waffles from frozen

Is this true?!

winterdays I asked him afterward the operation, and he said it was egg mayo. I don't know if he said that just to shut me up.

Wouldn't the conjoined twin be an accessory to the crime ?
Can you imagine telling your conjoined twin you'd call the police on them or that you'd walk away if you had the brain that controlled the legs as is sometimes the case.

@BlackWhitePurple going concern means it's a viable business with trade, not just a building with assets such as stock (that's a break up which is useful to asset strippers, people who just want to come in and buy failing companies to sell their contents). Going concern you'd expect to be able to run the shop or whatever going forward.

@molemummy - it’s what I use it for and it works!

@BatleyTownswomensGuild How do you put on liquid eyeliner and keep it in a straight, even line - is there a trick to this? I always look like I've applied it when I'm pissed....

1. Practice
2. Wipe a bit off first
3. Go boldly. Hesitation is the enemy of a smooth line.

@Foslady that knowledge has made my day!

@BatleyTownswomensGuild use sellotape to do the flick eyeliner (google it) when you’ve had enough practice you won’t need the tape

@molemummy - learnt it off here!!!

Anyone know who picks up the dog poo from a guide dog, guiding a visually impaired person?

You can put potato waffles in the toaster? Really? I had no idea 😳

@RoseMartha my solicitor told me I could go on being Mrs if I wanted to. Eventually I just changed it to Miss (or Ms if you prefer), got all documents, cards etc changed and just called myself Miss on anything new. You don't have to stop being a Mrs or legally change it to Ms/ Miss, but you may have to show your divorce certificate for some things to explain why you're changing your details.

@wishiwasabettergardener guide dogs are probably trained to poop in the owners garden or known green space where the blind person can more easily locate the poop- or a family member does it for them?

How come airplanes that weigh hundreds, if not thousands of tons don't fall out of the sky (usually).

I know its due to the air pressure below being higher (or lower) than the pressure above. Errr, so what, i get it with a paper plane but not really anything bigger than that.

@wishiwasabettergardener the blind person does it. The dogs are trained to go to the toilet on command so the owner can best control the situation, the owner strokes down their back while they're doing it and bam, theres the poo.

Guide dogs are trained to wee and poo to command so a blind person would have a set time and place to instruct their dog to do this (looking into guide dog puppy socialising next year 😊)

What are those little fluorescent orange markers that seem to be found at the edges of fields next to roads? They look a bit like bird tables but smaller. I thought perhaps footpath markers but this seems unlikely.

Stars. They fascinate me!

I always remember my dad telling me that the light from stars takes so long to reach earth due to light years that by the time we see the 'star' it's no longer there?? If this is the case then how come we can see the famous constellations i.e. The Plough every night - if the 'stars' are no longer there then surely there will be a point in the future when those constellations will no longer be there/visable ?

Ah, I’ve finally got around to googling it. Gas pipe markers.

Right attempting to remember the answers...

Eyeliner : I use tape, it’s just shit medical tape to stop me going too squint. It’s only as good as the tape job but atleast i don’t look like a panda.

Guide dogs go on command that’s why they don’t piss in Asda 😂.

Wouldn’t the conjoined twin be an accomplice or accessory to the crime and depending on where they’re joined.. ie one body two heads or two body’s joined at the hip would depend on if you could say bob done it not bert

*Mistletoe only grows in apple trees doesn't it? conjoined twins wouldn't the other twin be an accessory?! . potato waffles I always put mine in the toaster on the frozen setting...
