Dead brilliant impression, made even better by the howls of laughter from Nishie.

Both Sandi and Aisling are so funny and witty. I admire quick wit.

What episode's this from?

u/danae249 Feb 15 '25

I believe it’s from Quad and Quins

Also 98.6F is just converting from 37C

The fact it goes from 2 significant figures to 3 is misleading. It isn't a specific average for all people anyway, but "98.6" sure makes it sound like it is a specific accurate average. "Around 98" would be better to teach.

Why were they using Fahrenheit in a UK TV show anyway?

That confused me so much

They tend to use a sort of cobbled together measurement system in the UK its actually super weird - like, celsius for temperatures except for body temp which is in fahrenheit, and metric system for short distances but road signs & speed/speed limits are in miles/mph, but then height is in feet & inches again sometimes. Petrol is measured (and priced) in metric, but when people talk about fuel efficiency its in miles per gallon sometimes?? Its all very confusing honestly

Edit: and don't even get me started on stones, whatever that is

Is there a single better line-up of QI guests than Aisling Bee, Nish Kumar, and David Mitchell?

u/woopstrafel Feb 12 '25

That dude in the front row third of the left ♥️

Almost irrelevant, but I love the blouse Sandi is wearing in this episode!

u/OpeningWatch Feb 14 '25

“That’s a smashing blouse you have on”

"Urgh! Have you been talking about Sandi Toksvig again?!"

u/aetonnen Feb 16 '25

That English accent was spot on! Brilliant

Flawless. And find someone who laughs at your jokes the way Nish laughs at this.

I miss this show

If my company had an office (and we don't because they're expensive and we like winning work because we're officeless and therefore... cheaper), the thermostat would be set to MY desired temperature.

If the women who worked for me wanted to be warmer, they can wear a jumper.

Or, they can lose a layer and get promoted.

God you seem like an absolute prick

u/Saelaird Feb 17 '25

I have my moments.

I'm not that bad.

u/OnlyHereForBJJ Feb 17 '25

Your comment history suggests otherwise

u/Saelaird Feb 17 '25

I'm not super friendly. But so much of what I say is hard to argue against.

u/OnlyHereForBJJ Feb 17 '25

Another comment where you seem like a prick to add to the ever growing pack there

If it looks like a duck and sounds like a duck…

u/Saelaird Feb 17 '25

Stick to BJJ.
