Many oddly shaped small pieces of metal and plastic are known to appear in drawers (not the sort worn the other sort) It is believed these are generated by quantum fluctuations to ensure conservation laws are preserved in each universe.

Nobody yet has explained why any old CD or cassette that is discovered invariably turns out to be Queen's Greatest Hits. Some consider them to be down to Freddies in the space time continuum but this is usually those with mal-adjusted hearing aids repeating nonsense.

All face coverings should be banned in public places.  Unless there is a medical reason for a Covid type mask.  That discriminates against no one.

There aren't that many muslims in Portugal, not compared to UK where they are 8% of our population.  Imagine the kick off if we attempted to ban the burqa here !

I see them here if I go into town, and in the hot weather it annoys me that the men are dressed comfortably, whilst the women are head to toe in black.  There is no religious reason for it, a Muslim colleague, who dressed in Western clothes explained it clearly.  All the Koran says is that both men and women should dress modestly.  For her that meant, jeans/trousers, midi dresses, tops with sleeves.   Just like most of the women I worked with.
