Quote: 4. No politics (including enviro-politics[^]), no sex, no religion.
«While I complain of being able to see only a shadow of the past, I may be insensitive to reality as it is now, since I'm not at a stage of development where I'm capable of seeing it. A few hundred years later another traveler despairing as myself, may mourn the disappearance of what I may have seen, but failed to see.» Claude Levi-Strauss (Tristes Tropiques, 1955)

Anway, its nearly the 7th anniversary of the death of Leslie Nielsen.

I'll make no bones about it: we see through your plot. Nearly isn't good enough.
Today, in 1895, Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen discovered X-Rays.

Are you joking? He can't be dead. I see him on TV all the time.

Shirley, you can't be serious!
edit: Is calling out a Leslie about Leslie considered a Leslie?

I just noticed recently that when a box of Kleenex is near empty, the color of tissue changes to peach to remind users that it is time to buy a new box. What a smart idea. Do you know any other examples like this?

When the bottle of ketchup is almost empty, it makes a 'squirty' sound with a lot of air.

By design?

I've noticed it also tends to be a lot messier and go everywhere you don't want it to go.

And if you're in a restaurant everyone snickers at you.
Sometimes the true reward for completing a task is not the money, but instead the satisfaction of a job well done. But it's usually the money.

How do you tell when a box of peach colored Kleenex is empty?
(I don't use Kleenex. I carry a handkerchief. #oldschool).

Good question. But I have not seen peach colored but white.

Ravi Bhavnani, using hankies and saving the environment!

And spreading disease ... with a disposable tissue, you throw away the bug ridden paper instead of carrying it around with you to infect others with.
But me? I use "proper" cotton hankies myself ...

Yeah, I've always felt hankies are mainly for show. If you actually use them a few times, it's just a bacterial container.

And then you give it to your spouse to wash in the laundry. Yuck!

I do the laundry! And most of the cooking. She handles the important decisions: declaring war on other countries, repelling alien invasions, that sort of thing. We can't clutter her up with trivial implementation details!

Cash register tapes have been doing that for many years. But you're right, it seems that more things could benefit from that concept.
My vacuum cord has a yellow sticker and then a red sticker to indicate the end of it. It is retractable so it is there to warn you to not pull too hard.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Little things like these may not get noticed. But they do reflect manufacturers work hard on their products.
