I’m not entirely sure I read your comment correctly, but it sounds like you’ve never heard the word “whinging” before.

For the avoidance of doubt, it’s a real word. It rhymes with “hinging”.

Seconded. As soon as you hit 40, every other visit to the doctor involves talking about something going wrong below the waist.

Phew! It’s been nearly 30 years since my last German lesson, but I thought I should have been able to read more than I could.

It wasn’t until the last panel, where I noticed “Ich” spelled “Ick” that I wondered whether it was written with an accent.

Thanks for the translation!

From the outside looking in, I have to say that the pace of things this time around is pretty alarming.

I pop this on the telly for my kids when they have nightmares. It’s interesting enough to distract them, yet gentle enough to lull them to sleep again.

It seems pretty fundamental, but fighting games have had pretty much the same basic UI layout since Street Fighter II. Before then there was a degree of variability as to how the different elements were laid out. Since SFII, it’s always been Timer in the middle and Health bars on either side of that.

Children’s clothing too.

Something that nobody seems to have touched upon is the fact that many dead people are embalmed.

If you suddenly came alive again after being embalmed, you’d suddenly become dead again.

Also, post-mortem examinations are not uncommon if the cause of death was not clear. Again this might lead to instant re-death.

Finally, if the cause of death /was/ clear (such as trauma), then again, that may likely result in instant re-death.
