Are Minions gay?

Trying to find something to watch last night, (impossible task) and for a minute or three, i watched the start of the Minion movie.

There was no female Minion's.
There was a fair bit hugging.
There was lots of muffled talking.

What a friggin weirdo thing that is.

Mrs Dandy assures me that there are female Minions (with fig leaves over their lady bumps)

She is now frantically Googling to prove it.

Edit: With no luck.

Edit 2: Now she has found that they wore starfish on their chests in the beach scene but are all definitely male.

In the mid 80's, I was the go-to bloke in the south of England if you needed three hole latrine seats or a 1000 sets of cutlery for your regimental garden party. Can't speak for other countries but in the UK they are called "L Numbers" (or "N Numbers" for the navy). L is for "Land"

Edit: Just done a bit of a Google and it seems M stands for "Model" and F for "Forces".

What I want to know is, when you're watching a scary movie, when they switch the lights on in a big room or hallway etc, why do the lights make a loud clunk noise when they come on?

Is a litre of "light" milk lighter than a litre of normal (if there is such a thing any more ) milk

Or is light milk heavier because it has less fat and more water and water is heavier than fat?

That's actually the sound of your sphincter snapping shut from fear.

It's probably heavier because fat is lighter than water.

I can never see the point of the stuff. There's hardly any fat in normal milk to start with. I'm sure it's just a marketing thing so that the dairies can pinch the cream off your milk while pretending that they are doing you a favour.

In the theme of the scary movie post a few posts above and whilst I haven't watched this show for a few years but why in CSI when they enter a crime scene in the middle of the day they all turn their torches on. Wouldn't it be easier to turn the light switch on.

[Bird]

Wouldn't it be easier to turn the light switch on.

same in most movies... walk around dark scary rooms and Shit but never turn the light on.

Why do screwdriver sets have an insulated screwdriver, if you can't do your own electrical work?

Was too bloody heavy unless cut back to the gas plug.. Short butt and an over shoulder sling was the go....

I never got to use a modified version. Personally I never found it that heavy compared to the gpmg or mag58.

A lot lighter then compared to a pig.. About same rate of fire. Back to back 30 round mags still didn't match a 100 round belt though. But every inch shorter made a difference crawling through the J. And every kilo lighter made a difference too when carrying half a house. Usually trouble free, specially not picking up crap in the belt, but the piston tended to hob a bit, so needed to carry a spare.... Not many got a chance, depended on how flexible your OC was.... Never had MAG58's...

Ok so is there actually a right way to launch a boat

Method 1 back trailer down till wheels are about half submerged and then kind of push boat off

Method 2 back trailer down to wheels are under water and float boat off

This debate went on for 4 hours around the campfire last weekend

A lot! (Surprised Edz hasn't been in to comment on his "beloved" pig )

& also fewer bits sticking out to get snagged on everything
