The WTF? / Darwin Award Thread

Mine dont work....still have to send meter readings and I think they have interfered with the signal from my Ring Camera Doorbell

cover the meter with tinfoil and it wont

Our signal runs down the meter cabling.

It's not Wi-Fi ieness. Or whatever.

I might be wrong

Here, I can't comment on yours.

There seems to be a lot of scaremongering about these things?

I am so glad that it is not me, that's going to take a very long time to heal and it would be interesting to find out what happens when it eventually bursts. Anyone know the story of what happened, looks like he put his hand on something that was really hot.

Blister is only slightly bigger than the one I had on my foot, I made a comment on this forum about pulling the trigger of a steam pressure washer when the wand was over my foot. I waited a week before going to A&E (Princess Alexandra, Harlow) on a Friday. The hospital took the blister and skin away, arranged appointment at Burns unit, Broomfield Hospital, Chelmsford on the Monday, been back following Monday and go again tomorrow. It is still drying out and the crap coming from it, been two weeks since trip to A&E, now under burns unit at Chelmsford, I can not thank them enough, in A&E 2hrs one of which was they had computer issues, to send photo's to Broomsfield. 1st visit to Broomfield was just over the hour, 2nd 20minutes. All the Nurses and Doctors have been fantastic, oh healing nicely, but tender and uncomfortable.

That was my plan regarding cutting down those masts, on x thousand tons of explosive boat.

Don't tell anyone.

At least the extension cables not on an inflatable pelican.

A close friend lost his leg doing that - in a round baler. The pain when it was ripped to bits must have been something else. Also, I know two people, both very well, that are in the pto shaft club - ie been 'round with it. One of them commented how he could hear (and feel obviously) his bones breaking....

I'd imagine all modern houses come with Smart meters? I may be wrong though.



I just had one fitted to my house, saved me a fortune already...

Having made that statement in jest, my electric bill has dropped enormously and Bulb have advised me to drop my direct debit dramatically. I was paying £44 a month, now it is £10.
