Sort-of memes that are cracking you up at the moment

This was a complete surprise for me, it's all happened since I left the UK so I had no idea... Really looking forward (I think?) to going for a look... When I was a lad the power station was still working in some small capacity, it was just over the river from where I lived so an ambition of mine was to nip through the fence and explore the abandoned yards... Never did, obvs, far too dangerous and there were always guards and dogs around...

Didn't someone onhere go in there BITD?

[searches]

It was @Guerillaphoto I was thinking of.

I think he did, yeah...

That whole area is super interesting - stumbled across it on a walk recently. Never been that close to the power station before - always been shut

"It happens every Friday night in Liverpool" - wearing a sky blue jerkin, white jeans and cowboy boots? Probably.

I did c. 2009 too. There was a marketing show flat inside even then.

Many have dreamed of doing so though.

You lot will be telling me that Moses didn't part the Red Sea next.

Blasphemy!

Totally misread that as "Moses didn't play for the Red Sox"

He did sign for them, but was traded to the Yankees in preseason without playing. The rest of his career was spent as a backup pitcher without ever getting a start.

Edit: totally aced by someone smarter than me (not difficult).

Thought he was holding a broom for a second.

Someone on Twitter suggested they open a stationary shop here

I think most shops in tube stations tend to be stationary, no?

Are they putting them on rails now?

Virgin trains have a shopping carriage

The station stationery at Battersea Power Station Station is Battersea Power Station Station station stationery.

James while John had had had had had had had had had had had a better effect on the teacher

"had had had had had had had had had had had" had previously been the longest consecutive repetition of a single word in a grammatically acceptable sentence. That record has now been broken (etc.)

I raise you...

Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo

Based on this we can now also say: "The record for the longest consecutive repetition of a single word was previously held by had had had had had had had had had had had; had had had had had had had had had had had had is now the record holder" etc etc

had you not had to add some punctuation, that might have been valid
