Random weird shit

[Colonel Kira's Left Tit]

So I heard this noise going on outside awhile ago and got up to investigate. This is what I saw going on two houses down the street.

Yes. They have a broken plane sitting in their driveway.

Now, I realize there's not much to discuss here since even I don't understand it, so perhaps we can turn this into a photo thread of random weird shit we've seen lately.

Or something.

Very spacious driveway compared to British standards. I cant think of many properties I've seen here that could comfortably host an aircraft.

Americans take pride in a good-sized front lawn. It's a thing.

It's because you've got so much extra land you've stolen from the Indians!

I remember when I was staying with my mum's friend in Canada when I was younger and their back garden was half an acre big or something and it just felt silly.

My grandparents had a back garden like that (it had two "ponds" each of which you could've built an extra house on) and it just got really overgrown. Sad.

I don't have any pics of weird random shit, but I do have an odd coincidence. Last weekend I went to a pretty much random stretch of beach 100 miles away on the south coast with some friends. Had a lovely time. Got burnt etc. When I got home that night I opened up Facebook to find that one of my cousins and her kids (who are from the same town as me) had also gone to a beach that day. The same beach. And her photos had the same people in the backgrounds as mine did. We'd been sat maybe 50 meters from each other. That was weird.

 

[The Question]

I get that Brits call a lawn a "garden" -- but what do you guys call an actual garden? You know, where you grow vegetables? Do you call it a "vegetable gallery" or something?

 

[Fuddlemiff]

A vegetable patch, maybe. Or a kitchen garden. Or just garden.

 

[The Question]

Maybe it's only the veddeh veddeh proppah types, you know, the posh tosspots, who call it a "vegetable gallerehhhhh".

It's like listening in on the day Noel Coward and Elaine Stritch first met.

Good time to post this clip of Hugh Laurie spoofing Noel Coward:

It's like a Black Mirror episode where you can't see people physically but they still appear on your Facebook!

 

[Fuddlemiff]

That's how I like it!

 

[CaptainWacky]

But then at the end of the episode everyone unfriends you because you forgot to like a pic of cat eating ice cream (it was hilarious!) and you're walking around the street begging people to be your friend BUT NOBODY CAN HEAR YOU.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

And everyone is "Live!" but you.

That South Park episode actually makes me incredibly sad, like the way Futurama's 'Jurassic Bark' does.

If only he'd joined TK he could have many friends who suspect he's secretly a Henoch dual.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

I thought he did join (Robbie).

I was just watching the fox cubs play in their den behind my house. They were jumping around. Not really random or weird or shit but a thing.

I want to know what happened to the plane and how it got there!

Oh, I guess I forgot that part. It turned out to be a rather elaborate ride to the prom for four young couples dressed to the nines. Hauled up the street behind a pickup. I was kind of hoping it would knock over the fire hydrant at the end of the street and create some real excitement.
