Evolution disclaimer stickers

Apparently some american states put disclaimer stickers on textbooks mentioning evolution. This is someone's interpretation. I found many amusing, most especially the last one.

I should warn that some of the stickers are ruder about some of my friends' beliefs than I would put on a public textbook, but the stickering system settled on seems such a bad compromise that I felt justified in posting this. But I will try not to argue about religion, or politics.

Suitable for 12 years or older, but under 18s must be with an adult. This is virtually identical to the 12 certificate, in that we'll have some adult-themed storylines, but no real meat or detail. No scary bits, but some language and maybe a bit of skin.

Examples: Die Another Day, Lord Of The Rings
Well, I like the examples.

Wow, I'm quite tame. Though there were several questions I wanted to answer in several ways. As for reading, I read anything and everything (but don't believe it). Also, how do they manage to make "several times, with several people" sound like a lot? My only 'bottom' answer was about the nuclear bomb, which would probably have been more truthfully the top one, but that answer just spoke to me more (in the previous question I had ticked, quite literally, 'wouldn't hurt a fly').

On friday I was very frustrated that my code worked fine in the debugger, but didn't work not in the debugger. On monday, rested, and having thought about the logical possible differences, I found the clue in a code fragment:

..."blah","blah","blah"}; // don't forget terminating ""

DOH!

The funny thing is that *today* I have a headache. I hope I don't code better with a headache, or I'll end up feeling obligated to drink every week and then not take paracetemol or water :( though :) too :)

And *why* do I have a headache. I didn't drink much on saturday, and nothing yesterday, and had as much sleep as reasonable. Except that *every day* now I think "I'll get up at eight" and then, eight hours later "I feel awful. I can work late this once. *snooze* " And then a few hours later I *still* feel awful. So I get wonderful lie ins but don't enjoy them. Stop hating me now :)
