The spectator in a wheelchair is wearing a helmet, I bet he's going next.
ReplyDeleteExactly. Not a spectator, but a participant.
DeleteThank you!
ReplyDeleteThese are awesome but may I make one request? I would really like it if you would set the links to open in a new tab. I really don't want to navigate away from your blog.
ReplyDeleteLeah, my blogging platform (Blogger) doesn't offer the option of creating links that open in new tabs - only of opening in new windows. Opening tabs is I think a browser option. I don't know what you use, but in Firefox you can go to Preferences>General and click to have links open in a new tab.
DeleteBut also, and more important, instead of clicking on links, try "right-clicking." That should bring up a menu with choices to "open link in new tab, open link in new window, etc." A technique useful for your whole websurfing life, not just for TYWKIWDBI.
Stan, if I'm not mistaken, Blogger has the option of editing in html format. If you then add target="_blank" to the a href... tag to the left of a link, it will cause it to open in a new window. See for example this page on how to do that.
DeleteIf you want to dabble a bit in html editing and see what effect it has on the final result without first having to publish it, you can use a realtime online editor like this one.
Old dog ≠ new tricks
Delete:-)
...says the reddit frequenter ;) As it turns out, you don't even have to use html; if this info is correct there is a simple checkbox in the Edit Link window that does the same.
DeleteThank you, Drabkikker, but note that that "simple checkbox" has to be checked for each link, meaning that I would have to have done 40 extra clicks for this post. And it would open a new window, not a new tab. The alternative offered is to insert someone's script into my template. No thank you. People can learn to right-click.
Delete... or Ctrl+left click :)
DeleteWhat would have been the correct way to extinguish the alcohol fire there? I would have probably tried the water too, or try cover the flaming plastic container with the other one to limit the oxygen
