Questions And Answers

November 18th, 2008 · Posted by Skuds in Life/ Work · No Comments · Life, Work

There is a saying in politics that goes along the lines of ‘don’t ask a question unless you are sure of what the answer is’. Today I discovered the hard way that it applies in other areas too.

I have a habit that if I come across something I do not know about I look it up.  Sometimes on Google, but more often on Wikipedia.  It might be a person, or a place, an acronym or piece of jargon, but I’ll hate not knowing.  Sometimes it might be a good idea to do such research at home and noton the office PC at lunchtime…

Today I came across the term “rule 34″ on xkcd.com.  I did not know what “rule 34″ meant so I went to Wikipedia and searched for it.  Try it and see why I had a sudden panic attack.

Comments Policy:

  • Comments from anyone who is unknown (ie who has not commented before) will go into a moderation queue to be approved. This is to prevent spam/advertising comments and there may be a delay before such comments appear.
  • As far as possible I will not reject moderated comments or delete published comments, even if I disagree with them or if they are criticising me.
  • I intend only to delete/reject comments which are offensive, racist, homophobic, sexist or similar or if they are in any way illegal/libellous.
  • If you think a comment meets those criteria and I might have missed it, let me know.
  • Although technically I am able to edit comments I will not do so unless it is to remove embedded code which is causing problems.
  • If it is ever necessary to edit a comment it will be made clear that it has been edited.
  • Certain words in comments will cause the whole comment to be automatically consigned to the dustbin (Aavaisha, hmmegatest, cognitive, phentermine, xanax, pharmacy, viagra, vicodin, casino, ultram, tamiflu, valium, tramadol, levitra, carisoprodol) for obvious reasons.
