I know police officers; I’m curious how much time per shift on paperwork RoboCop would be required to spend, and how many court appearances and parole hearings for that matter. How much time on the streets would he really have IRL?

I was thinking about a non-offensive “gender” field for web forms that doesn’t need to be updated as new genders are discovered, and I think I’ve found it: How many X-type chromosomes do you have? 1 or 2? Also a good first-date question.

Thinking about Twilight, still bothered by that werewolf who imprinted on that then-baby, specifically his whole wolf pack can hear his thoughts like, “I must be near this baby” and then “I must be near this toddler” and then “I must be near her kindergarten”. #Twilight

If the Joker is the Clown Prince of Darkness, then there must be a Clown King or Queen - someone with a higher authority of Darkness. #joker #batman

I now have 64GB of RAM at home; I remember when I had 640kB of RAM.

Fun fact: ‘smellovision’ is more accurately called ‘teleolfaction’, or “distance smelling”.

Idea for a zero-day Amazon spear-phishing scam: if the minimum-wage driver cannot deliver your package, he texts his scammer buddy to that effect, for a finder’s fee, and the call-centre scammer calls you and is like, “I’m from Amazon, and I’m legit because I know you missed it.”

Thoughtlet of the day: a Nick Fury (Avengers) is also the name of a stealing spree.

Why isn’t Interstellar called Gravity, and Gravity called Momentum?
