Then we have this playground equipment, apparently designed prior to Copernicus, or the discovery of the sun for that matter:







Here's a "trending" news item, apparently created by a random word generator in Wisconsin:







Here's a mystery question that a reader says was part of her on-line medical license renewal:

The pundits are right about the coarseness that has overtaken our country. Apparently it extends even to inept Italian translators who believe that putting "fucking" in even the most innocuous sentence is now de rigueur. Althought, really, why does that translator even have a job as a translator?

The playground equipment designer should have just left labels off the circles, flying saucers and arc design, or thrown in a bunch of planet names, mixed them up, duplicated them, wrote some in tallman, and some in smallman, and arial typeface, just at random, because, just well, because. (They could've gotten even better on the router, or whatever was used.)

The deleted question one makes sense--it was a last minute change and they made the minimum change to make it work--change the wording rather than the more complex actually remove the question.

I suspect that planets illustration is from a Catholic School playground. Someone must have recollected that Galileo was tortured on the rack by the church when he suggested an alternative to the earth as center of the universe.

Why did she select "No"? The question HAD been deleted. Why not pick "Yes" and enter the description: "There's no question here. It seems to have been deleted. I hope this doesn't affect my license. I didn't delete it - it wasn't me."

It wasn't deleted. It may have been changed, but the text there asked a question. The answer to the question is unquestionably 'no'
