Etymology

The word dormouse comes from Middle English dormous, of uncertain origin, possibly from a dialectal *dor-, from Old Norse dár ‘benumbed’ and Middle English mous ‘mouse’.

The word is sometimes conjectured to come from an Anglo-Norman derivative of dormir ‘to sleep’, with the second element mistaken for mouse, but no such Anglo-Norman term is known to have existed.[4]

The Latin word glis, which is the origin of the scientific name, is from the Proto-Indo-European root *gl̥h₁éys ‘weasel, mouse’, related to Sanskrit गिरि girí ‘mouse’ and Ancient Greek γαλέη galéē ‘weasel’.

The Wikipedia article slides over the word ‘edible’ like it’s a complete non-problem

It’s dominant??? Noooooo.

I’m always making fun of my wife and call her a sneezy vampire but now I might have to turn on my daughters as well?

Actually I can do this.

Then try to explain why I have not heard ‘sk8ter boi’ on the radio for at least 10 years?

Until next time? I’d rather not meet you again, thanks

My grandma used to sing me a lullaby about how to cook rice but I can’t remember it. Could you sing me such a lullaby?

“Boy” ??!? 😤

Generally [source? I’ve heard it] it’s recommended to change them every 600km to 1000km. The issue is not only the upper fabric but the state of the soles, that tend to lose grip and shock absorption and that makes you prone to injuries. But it depends on so many factors (weight, where you run, shape of your foot…)

That being said, the feeling you get using them should really tell you if they need to be changed. If you feel like hitting bricks when you run and your knees feel sore, maybe look for another pair.

I’m sure people at the gym are quite happy to see a dedicated person. Nobody gives a fuck about the state of your shoes, aesthetically speaking.

Anyone got links to these particular species, especially the wasp one?

Don’t give a f🦆k about the children either, carcinization is expected I thought.

Sorry that was taken out of context, the real quote would be: “[…] should drive an Uber over the studio executives or go to the beach for a year to train sharks to attack studio executives”

Nice praxis, comrade Deering.

Is it electrons travelling in your brain that made you think that?
