| Oh well, if it was in an ad, they probably made it up. Advertisers are always creating silly names and trying to get them to become household words. Just look how many people say "googling" when they mean searching the Web. What's the point of googling when you've got that other place that... |

| Who needs a TV licence when you've got YouTube on the internet? Nobody needs a TV license. I'm amazed so many people think they need one. Mind you, when you stop buying one the BBC refuses to believe you're not a dodger, and they send you scaremongering letters forever after giving you advice about... |

| According to my search engine there's no such thing as triple aid complex. Nearest thing is AIDS triple therapy, which doesn't look like the same thing at all. |

| That's very R.D.Laing that is. He wrote books about how people were thought to be insane and argued that under the circumstances they were just doing what they had to do to survive, and that it was the people around them who were the real nutters. I've got something called defensive pessimism that's... |

| ^ I was married to a Pentecostal Christian once. The difference in views on religion did cause some friction, but I still don't think that alone would have sunk our marriage. Once we'd agreed that I wouldn't tell her there isn't a god as long as she didn't tell me there is, we got on a lot better in... |

We've talked about that before and I said I was going to get into a cardboard box and pretend to be a robot so they wouldn't zap me.

When I clicked on some of the long list of things in its list of attacks it reckoned it had saved me from, it said that they were probably harmless and just something trying to ping my c... |

How can anxiety be a coping mechanism?
Apart from that it's not a bad fit, but nobody's shoving psych meds into me. |

| The name is a parody of a Dire Straits song "Sultans Of Swing," and said to date from a time when it was taboo to poke fun at Dire Straits. Here it is, though I should warn it doesn't sound very good through a titchy speaker: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-dl9KTYAVk https://www.youtube.... |
