The media should be blamed for sweeping the issue under the rug, if you ask me. For example, have you read a single word about the lay-offs at the open-pit latex mines in the Northern Cape?
Edit: Sorry for the partial derail.

There's a GIF for that
I understood some of those words.

I don't have the mental faculties to comprehend a sentence such as this. This truly is an example of the High Counsel's superior knowledge of language.
On a related note, when are we restarting the game. I kinda miss What Izzit

It's an obscure quote from the first draft of "Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" when JRR was a bit tipsy and... erm... lonely.

I take it then that in the final draft he was no longer lonely, and completely wasted.

A Thorium radioactive incandescent gas mantle placed above plant seeds, an experiment on the effect of radiation (from an unburned thorium gas mantle) on the germination and growth of timothy-grass seeds. We oughtn't have though that this should be common knowledge by now.
There might be some tenses discrepancies in that there last sentence.

It's called a W.E.P.T.C.D.W.P.P. otherwise known as wireless extension point to connect devices with a power point.
The idea is simple, on point plugs into a wall socket and the second you wrap around you your charger or battery. From there a wireless signal is used to charge your devices and can also replace ugly power cables.
So far the tech is limited in that it doesn't work and this is just the display piece on what the final product will look like. Still it's a very pretty piece, so pretty in fact it got $10 000 000 in funding from the Nigerian banks (apparently people aren't answering their emails so they sent it to these guys).

These are the Pavlok fitness bands. They will quite literally shock you to wake up on time or exercise when you should. Like any fitness band you know, the Pavlok is a rubbery bracelet that uses Bluetooth to connect to an app on your phone. But more than just an accelerometer-based activity tracker, it has a simple shock circuit built in which takes commands from its companion smartphone app. You set up a criteria for when the Pavlok should shock you, and it will torture you accordingly.
