Firefox 2.0 and sexist firesigns
Well, I’ve finally got round to installing one of the new browsers…. namely Firefox 2.0. I’ve had a flawless relationship with it for the past 2 years. It’s um… very much the same as the previous version. I’m sure there are hundreds of reasons why the upgrade is necessary, but I’ve yet to reach a situation where I’ve been bored enough to actually look them up.
Speaking of bored, yesterday I completed the longest shift I’ve ever done. All 13 hours of it, thanks to the clocks going back.
It is very possible that I may have cried once during it.
Anyway, speaking of bored, I was bored enough to notice something. The fire safety notices at my workplace are sexist. Observe:-


Just look at them. Who says men can’t burn the grub as well? I’ve previously done very well at almost burning the house down, after falling asleep and leaving a boil-in the bag curry to boil dry, filling the kitchen full of smoke and welding the contents of the pan securely to the bottom of it.

13 hours! Surely that can’t be legal? Also I read this as Sexyest firesigns, which would explain why the first lady is naked.
