January daft link roundup - extra

Being a) old enough to remember Top Trumps when they first became popular, and b) having worked with some right bastards in my time, I just saw something on the B3TA board that made me choke on the tea I was drinking at the time...

Well, I laughed, a lot

Stef said...: but seriously for a moment

The wingspan of a B-52 in Top Trumps was 56.4m but in the knock off Ace Trumps deck it was only 56m. What was that all about?
