I want to read the risk assessments

"Small chance of crashing a plane into something because it's being piloted by a dog"

WHO COMMISSIONED THIS SHOW?

...this is like 4 years old by this point but I've just heard of a tv show called "dogs might fly" and they're trying to teach dogs to fly a plane

tried that Liechtenstein picrew going around

not sure I'm doing it right

huh, apparently they're going to be doing drive-in movies at the Sandringham Estate (the queen's gaff)

piracy as a service

get a pirate ship, come alongside a cruise liner, board it, run a day or two of pirate-themed entertainment, leave with a cheque from the cruise line for entertainment services rendered/a fantastic advertising opportunity and tips from the cruise passengers

me: I'm sure 2020 can't confuse me much more

a bunch of french watchmakers carrying eggs: bonjour

Sometimes I feel like I've got a reasonable grip on reality but then something like this comes along and completely throws me

It's a twelve hundred euro watch specially created for timing eggs for egg mayonnaise

They called it the Egg Master

There is no sane universe where this should be a thing

REALITY IS CRUMBLING AROUND ME AND IT IS ALL EGG MAYONNAISE

The MAT Watches Egg Master

It's a watch created for L'Association de Sauvegarde de l'Oeuf Mayonnaise (The Association for the Protection of Egg Mayonnaise)

It has a timer feature to boil the perfect egg

It's being released for this year's Eggs Mayonnaise World Championship

I am not making a single word of this up

hahahahahaha

y'know how rolex has long waitlists? well, they're by specific model

so now that they've released new models everyone who was on the waitlist for a sub now needs to sign up for the new waitlist

and their position on the waitlist doesn't carry over!

it's only a commodore amiga if it's in charge of more than one ship at a time and has a fancy hat

considering it's a hemp pattern I'm expecting the green version will be repeatedly set to about 20 past 4

And now in actually interesting watch news, these have been announced by Seiko

Seiko Presage "Sharp Edges" series

Nicely finished, 39mm cases, 6R35 movements

The dial is inspired by a traditional hemp leaf pattern from the Heian period (794-1185) and apparently symbolise growth and prosperity

And you can buy all 4 of them for less than the cost of one of the recent Rolex releases (they're $1,000-ish each)
