Tittle tattle, gossip and the rest just seeps in eventually by some sort of (lack of) intellectual osmosis.

Fans only cool you down in moist air as they increase the evaporation rate by increasing the air speed across your skin and removing your sweat. In dry air, they'll have the opposite effect because you won't be sweating and they'll blow more hot air at you. Dyson is a charlatan, it's just a fan and will only cool you down in moist air like any other fan

Not African and White?

Its easier to be on the outside than in the middle The more extreme your views at either end of the spectrum the more easily defined your beliefs are. Those at the extremes like things simple, yes the other extreme is the devil but those in the centre are the enemy because being able to see both sides and look for the middle ground without recourse to dogmatic doctrine confuses them They understand the other extreme far more than they understand the centre ground, which is why you often find centrists being labelled as appeasers / collaborators (of the other extreme) Being reasonable is threatening so the extremes will always attack the centre far harder than they'll attack the other extreme.

Dreadful. But huge audiences

Yes Action Records does that, so does Probe but Probe really doesn’t stock too many and they new tend to get moved into the sections because they get sold from the new release sections and it’s not too much of an ordeal in there. There is one shop in Liverpool, Jacaranda Phase Oneb that has a DREADFUL ordering policy and shop stocking policy, not only do they massively over order some absolute shite but they put every single record they have in the racks. 6 copies of Altered Images Greatest Hits in A -G and not even all together because having the records actually going up alphabetically together is obviously too hard. On top of that they'll have so many sections for different genres and are a bit clueless as to what records belong where. OMD, that'll be in…? …? Ah 80s Alternative…. Nope Liverpool bands maybe…..? Nope Post-punk maybe…? Nah, give up I'll ask…. Girl goes “Oh I know where that'll be. I follow… Erm no it’s not there, there or there…. Hmmm ok let’s try…. Electronica. Ah there it is….Ah Ok thanks….. Then there’s the new release sections. This weeks, this months, last months, the month before, the month before that….. It takes about 6 months before they get moved to another section which half he time won’t be where it should be So the upshot of this is that you can’t just go to the counter and ask for a record because it'll be in the shop….SOMEWHERE but f*** knows where Stick to New Releases, General, Reggae, Jazz, Dance and Soundtracks Job Done (unless they sell classical as well I guess). Oh and in General have a section for nearly every letter of the alphabet and keep on top of the order buy wandering round the shop and checking every so often though in my experience most vinyl enthusiasts are fairly anal about putting things back in the right place anyway.

Oh yes you’ll definitely find stuff in there that no other shop has had in stock for years. I found a Snapped Ankles RSD EP that was three years old that I’d seen nowhere else ever

What’s that in shed years?

Or it could just be intended for the home audience to claim things are going to plan

I'm worried for my daughters day 4 tickets now

Oh good luck, just remember Gordon crams as many records as humanly possible into every rack and files solo artists alphabetically by their first name. Yes, Lee Perry will be under L I'm convinced he'd sell more if people could actually find things

I just thought we were in Fundamental Mormon territory

Its the Heil, he'll stick to the pillarboxes

Actually saw Tin Machine live... glad I didn't pay

…and shit

There was a track I heard on the radio a few times in the last few weeks and everytime I thought it was some previously unreleased Bowie track, no idea what the track was. Thats all I've heard though

Comedy wicket from the radio description

similarly... Write a comedy sketch in the style of The Young Ones about the band The Fall Originally the bit about smashing a guitar was about MES had to get it to change that line

ChatGPT Write a comedy sketch in the style of Monty Python about the band Oasis (inspired by a @Xelapost)

turned a good first session into a mediocre one
