In the UK there is a TV programme for very young children called Peppa Pig. One episode is about spiders and reassures viewers that spiders are very small and can't hurt you.

When the series was exported to Australia, that episode was banned.
Yes, if I should ever be bitten by a spider, I hope it happens north of the Alps!

Ref: Peppa Pig 'spiders can't hurt you' episode pulled off air in Australia – again
hahaha, I was unaware of that ... what most people ( and obviously those who produced that TV prog) don't realize, is that the smaller spiders tend to be more venomous than the larger onesDave

A police officer caught Mr. Heisenberg for exceeding the speed limit.
- Mr. Heisenberg, do you know how fast you were driving?
- Yes, and I know exactly where I am.
- So how do you explain your behavior?
- I have cancer, and I have to take care of my family.

Nobody gets #918? Not even chemists? Maybe I should move it to the Lame Jokes thread. :frown:

Is it a Breaking Bad allusion? (I never watched it.)

It took me a while - like @mjc123 I didn't follow Breaking Bad and the connection didn't immediately occur.
 
  • #925
Yes, it's Breaking Bad. I thought there will be more fans here. :)

Depending on how you read it the first one is either good or bad for engineers.

Not sure if this link to an image on reddRe will work. If not then I'll try uploading.

Ok I'll try imgur.
