Most of the major newspapers (this is from a UK perspective but I’d imagine they’re accessible in other places) have a live news page for big developing news stories - the BBC site is probably a good unbiased-ish one

I’m a big fan of -ussy as a suffix, especially when it’s wildly unsuitable for the purpose

It’s utterly ruined ales describing themselves as “citrussy”

Hold the newsreader’s nose squarely, waiter, or friendly milk will countermand my trousers.

To use another from the very late 1900s

The years start comin’ and they don’t stop comin’

The Dollop

Particularly the 1908 New York Paris Car Race episode

I kept reading “tessellated”

Scunthorpe

Just never go to Scunthorpe

No contest, just look at these guys

First computer in about '99, which I’d “built” (I was 8, so I mostly just watched while my dad’s friend built it and occasionally let me plug some wires in)

First phone, Nokia 3310 in 2003, with a Simpsons case, I think I’ve got it in a box somewhere…

Was about to say the same thing - just annoying it’s not all available online in the UK

I’ve got two - a potato ricer, basically a big garlic press you put a boiled potato in, instant perfect mash.

Is that 25/80% of men will have thinner hair, or 25/80% of a man’s hair will thin?

A person and a human? So if a legal person like a company pisses it still takes the same time, neat

The word “asteroid” literally means “star-like”, because when they were first observed, no telescope could see enough detail to know what they were, so they were basically just called “those things that look a bit like stars”.

Even when eventually we figured out what they were, they were generally considered to all be spherical like tiny planets (see: The Little Prince) until the 1970s when one of the Mars probes flew close enough to have a look at one.
