The happiest I've ever seen Mr. Ayouade is when 'Fun' was put into Room 101. I only used proper grammar for the sake of Richard, and for the first time in at least ten years. It is considerably more effort than it is worth. That is all.
@@JungleCrook Just for the "fun" ('Fun'?) of it, I am going to point out that you also abused the comma system, I think. The comma after Richard is incorrect since what follows the "and" does not amount to a complete sentence in itself. If I am right, you've really let Richard down despite your best efforts. 🤦😢
@@TroubleToby3040 i love how unsure you are of your corrections lmao if thats the case then just let it go ya know? commas are also used for pauses and appositives among other things haha the best part tho? when you said 'you've really let richard down' thats and appositive and should have a comma after hahaha
Just putting it out there - even though you probably wont ever read this, but you are really quite attractive and we dont get many icelandic people in australia hahahaha
Alan Cochrane would hate me... I listen to audiobooks in public (with ear buds in) ... So I look like I'm laughing at music... Or possibly absolutely nothing!
byusaranicole Yep, I do that too. And I've been listening to the Discworld audiobooks recently, I often don't even realize I'm grinning like an idiot until someone asks me what's up.
For 97 percent of people to be surviving plane crashes, they must have included instances where planes get off the runway for only a very short time before having to put down again as 'crashes'.
Hardly. Planes are designed quite carefully to be able to have the passenger cabin protect passengers in case of a crash. As well, very few crashes are high speed impacts. Modern airplanes have at least a 300 to 1 glide ratio.
Still, maybe I'm not fully awake yet, but I would think if there is a 1:1.2 million chance of having a plane crash and then over 96% of passengers survive a plane crash - let's say 95% for the sake of argument here - wouldn't that mean the probability *D* of dying in a plane crash is a*b, where *a* ist the probability of your plane crashing and *b* is the probability of dying whilst in that plane crash? So that would make (1/1.2m)*(1/20)=1/24m, so 1 in 24 million? What am I doing wrong here?
The way you describe, it would be half closed. It's shaped that way so that a weak piece of plastic can hold open what could be a large, heavy book. I would imagine there's a flat pad on the contact points to prevent damage. I agree, damage would be unacceptable, but I think the manufacturer would realize readers are somewhat iconoclastic.
Richard was hilarious and they were all too funny "Hull" "weahhh!" 🤔🤭🤣🤣 Sad she has no empathy for those of us who fear the flying experience for one of many reasons, be it death, heights, or anything else.
1 Round Takes Half The Show. How are you supposed to laugh quietly, it's an expressive action, and some things are funnier than others so there will be more laughing?
I have to say these panel shows showed me that the worst German and Austrian kind of entertainment, Schlager music, the kind of trash that people would listen to on Mallorca or at Apres ski parties actually also exists in Britain. I'm so so sorry. Richard is right to put that trash into room 101 lock it up for good
I'd agree, but doing it this way maximizes the odds that any given viewer will watch each episode. For instance, I'm watching his one only because Ayoade is on it. But another viewer might not care for him and might watch to see Gabby (it's not inconceivable). Also it helps keep all these mainstays of the panel shows in work.
Hull is the river he is either a otter or a sea lion humans don't live in water they swim in it they paddle in it and they drowned in it the city is called Kingston upon Hull
It's a lot of fun to play, but I'd happily put football as spectator sport (and Cricket, in India) into the Room, with its insane marketing and idiotic tribalism and all the other chaff surrounding it.
All around not a great showing for Alan. The way he spoke to Gabby, and then tried to twist around what she was saying to make her seem stupid to prove his point (that was wrong anyway) was kinda repulsive. Imagine how he treats people he feels comfortable with when no one is looking. Then to top it off he thinks people laughing at a funny book is annoying, and that they're just showing off? No Alan, it's just you, and it's definitely not "a thing". Strange guy.
I'm not fully awake, but I would think: If you take a plane somewhere and the probability *a* of being in a plane crash is 1/(1.2m) = 0.000000832. And if the probability *b* of not surviving a plane crash is 1 - 0.967 = 0.033. Then intuitively I'd think the probability of dying in a plane crash *c* would be *c* = a * b = 0.000000832 * 0.033 = 0.000000027456, i.e. 1 in 27.5 million. What am I doing wrong?
@@TroubleToby3040 Oh, but I will. At a later date. Definitely not in the past. Anyway since we've established that I'm doing *math* wrong - while I'm probably doing fine in forestry and chemical engineering - do you think you might show me how it would be done right, just for illustration purposes? I'd be most grateful, at a later date.
I agree with Gabby, it's very weak the idea of these half and half scarves, a "Oh can't we just hope that they have a nice game?" Alun has a good idea with the gloves though, you could match them up and cut down on costs. Great idea. Laughing out loud when reading a book? No. If it's funny it's funny. What's worse is overhearing peoples earphones. Yes, mandatory fun is horrible. If forced it's fake and it's bad for all concerned.
I'm german and I have only seen half and half scarves of teams who have a fan-friendship. For example a club near me, Borussia Mönchengladbach has a friendship with Liverpool and so many of their fans have half Mönchengladbch and half Liverpool scarves.
Now that Gabby Logan's on the turn I can't think of a single good reason why soon she should still be on the telly. There are literally millions of people in the UK with more charisma than her who could do her jobs to at least the same standard after training and garnering a tiny bit of the experience that she's accumulated. She got on telly because she was hot. That's literally the only reason. When she's no longer hot why should she still be on telly?
I used to like Gabby Logan before I saw this - I hate flying. In fact, I don't like the show much at all because it seems to bring out the worst in the guests.
Sure, but you're afraid of flying (if you are saying you fit what she said, and don't hate it for other reasons) for illogical reasons, so it's justified to think it's illogical....
+Ophi Green I think that's the main point about fears and phobias, and why they are so difficult to overcome: they're not based on logic, so logical thinking and statistics do nothing to change them. Unfortunately, not much else helps, either.
They're all exaggerating a bit for comedy, I don't think Gabby really means she doesn't care. It's just that many people afraid of flying seem to think that's somehow more justified than claustrophobia or other irrational fears, and there are some who even think it's the duty of strangers around them to coddle and accommodate them because of that. I think those are the sort of people Gabby is talking about.
If you're sitting on a plane, scared of flying, beside me, keep it to yourself. I don't care, and you're the one who bought a ticket. Take the bus if it scares you so much.
The likelihood of dying in a plane crash depends entirely on when the plane crashed, if the plane crashed on takeoff or landing then the likelihood of survival is actually present if not fantastic. The likelihood of surviving a plane crash in any other circumstance is basically nil. The likelihood of surviving a car crash is greater than 80% as almost all ground-vehicle collisions are not even injurious rather less lethal, however lethal car crashes happen a lot more often than any kind of plane crash(see: frequency of automotive travel + average skill of drivers vs frequency of air travel vs average skill of pilots). So you're less likely to be involved in a plane crash but if that does happen you'll probably die. On the upside, fatalities from car crashes are usually neither instantaneous nor clean whereas most people that die in plane crashes tend to die instantly or at the very least very quickly.
