Every chance this is bollocks

But apparently the vikings had a raven on board to help them find land.

If it flew off and returned quickly,it meant land wasn’t close.

Should add this nugget was found on a YouTube comment

Sounds a bit like Noah.

and bollocks it is :slight_smile:

This is what happens when you believe a YouTube comment on a stranglers song.

I might need a different reference of the truth in future

Parakeet logic is the way to go: - If you’ve not seen a Viking with a Raven they do not and have never existed.

I thought it was the Norwegian Blue they used. They also have a lovely plumage.

I thought rattus norvegicus were more their thing ? Not that the rats would be a lot of use as a navigational aid. If they leave your ship they’re probably not coming back, and you’d better hope land is very close indeed …

Anybody thinking of going on Ozempic should probably be aware of this research. The article is from today’s Times.

Cos users start wanking after losing a bit of weight and being able to find their knob again?

I expect the boffins at Harvard didn’t consider the causal effects of sudden masturbation after years of abstinence. You really ought to get in touch.

Ironically given Donk’s post it’ll be a while before it’s known if it’s directly related to the actual drug having an unintended pathological interaction, or if people taking the drug feel it’s a magic immunity shield that alows them to return to terrible diet and lifestyle choices…

My money’s is on the latter, but the problem with researching it is that people lie.

I think the idea is that it stops you from wanting to put all those calories into your mouth.

I see the newspaper piece mentions nausea and diarrhoea. I was once involved in a clinical trial of another drug from the same family - Lixisenatide in my case. The trial was supposed to be double-blind and the doctor told me that I would have two series of studies - one injecting the Lixi and one injecting a placebo and neither she nor I would know which one I was getting for which test series. When she’d left the nurses said, quietly, “You’ll know. Within 20 minutes, if it’s the Lixi, you’ll feel it”. Fuck me, were they right. I felt dreadful with it and it wasn’t just me. The side-effects were so hard to tolerate that the study included an optional change to the protocol which allowed you to halve the dose if you couldn’t bear the full dose. It got a bit easier after a few days but how anyone manages to take a thing like that long-term I have absolutely no idea.

Fortunately, despite that I’m a fat fuck, I’ve never not been a wanker.

I suppose I must have long arms and a big todger. :joy:

My point was if those fewer calories are still laden down with salt, trans-fats, nitrites, hydrogenated oil, refined sucrose, + 10,000 other nasties, then patients will still put themselves at higher risk of whatever embolism is blocking the blood supply to the optic nerve.

The average person doesn’t think rationally, nor logically.

A gentleman is never a ‘wanker’, he is ‘sexually self-sufficient’…

You though - you’re definitely a wanker :rofl:
