Now, now be nice, he beat my record by 2 hours, is it just me or is it this job (programming, engineering in general) give problems that you just can't leave until its fixed or you know how to fix!

Yeah! I hate that I end up working late into the night sometimes because I just can't leave until I have figured out what is wrong - especially when it is my code I am looking at. On a couple of occasions I have finally given up and headed home (usually because my wife has called to find out where I am) only to find the problem within minutes of arriving at work the following day. Burn out is real!

It should be "8) Lose all hope". I just thought you might want to know that...no? Oh well, the weekend is coming up fast!

I'm an engineer, I'm cr@p at spelling in general, I just don't give a <<deleted due="" kss="" and="" mm="" rule="">>

I believe that has to be one of the most common spelling mistakes around. I see it all the time.

Thankfully no pedant has stopped by to argue that it a grammar mistake rather than a spelling mistake as the word is spelled correctly.

Well, if they did I'd tell them they were WRONG!
It's not spelled (spelt, grammer aficionado!) correctly, if it were it would be 'lose'. The fact that the spelling mistake just turns it into another word is coincidental.

Isn't there some law that posts about spelling or grammar always contains errors in spelling or grammar?

True. I would suggest accidental as well.

I'll give it an hour or so to see if anyone knows, but where in the EU are women forbidden from visiting?
It is not a building or site, but an entire region within the European Union covering some 130 square miles with a population of nearly 2,000 men.
[edit]
I'd never heard of Mount Athos[^], seems like I'm just not cultured enough.

Religions are specifically excluded from the sex discrimination laws: otherwise the catholics complain, the muslims complain, the mormons...

They used some bullshit made up religion (isn't that all of them?) as an excuse, and the EU is full of spineless idiots who fall for that trick every time.
I'm starting a new religion here and now that forbids its followers from paying taxes.

I'm starting a new religion that considers the numeral 3 a mortal sin, and deifies the numeral 7.

Don't men need to have beards as well?
We went on a family holiday nearby when I was a teenager and a trip was offered. Sure you had to be male and have a beard to go.
