"Nope, I'm a frayed knot"

@sireebob@cybre.space I've always been fond of "OI! FUCKERS!" as a replacement for "Ladies and Gentlemen"

@squirrel still, if I can't help out a squirrelbun that needs a hand then what's the point in having more than the absolutely required number of kidneys

@squirrel I've just remembered there used to be a Concorde route from Paris to your neck of the woods, that would have been hella convenient

Also expensive

Very expensive

@squirrel I mean, I'd come get you but I'd have to take out a loan and I'd only get there by Tuesday morning which probably wouldn't help much

Could do a "there's an emergency, come quick" phone call for you though

@BatElite First used by the US National Autistic Society but it was popularised by Autism Speaks after NAS stopped using it

Autism Speaks take it as "autistic people are difficult to comprehend (like a puzzle) and that the cure for autism is the missing piece"

April is Autism Awareness Month

This April, remember that autism is a thing, and that Autism Speaks can ram their puzzle piece bullshit right up their collective shitter

@squirrel @alice@elekk.xyz although I suppose that would include being favourite easter bunny... main point, maple is best bun all year

@alice@elekk.xyz @squirrel isn't everyone's favourite easter bunny, @squirrel is everyone's favourite all year round bunny!

Happy atheist-kids-get-chocolate day everyone!

Or "Easter" if you're the religious type

@kibi true, but so are cars

@kibi we have those, they're called helicopters

I'M AN OCTOPUS!

Y'ALL THOUGHT I WAS HUMAN! NOBODY SUSPECTED A THING!

@squirrel *gentlys the robobun*

Considering my previous toot about English-American translations went absolutely woolly, here's some more:

British: "I hear what you say"
American: "You're wrong, shut up"

British: "With the greatest respect..."
American: "You're a fucking idiot"

British: "That's a very brave proposal"
American: "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU THINKING YOU LUNATIC"

British: "I would suggest..."
American: "You will do this or be sanctioned"

It's the end of the month, which means patreon plugging time!

Since I don't have one and @squirrel is far too modest I'm plugging hers
