While trying to quiet my brain last night to sleep, I instead found myself questioning our entire number naming system.
We start out normally. 1-10, fine. But then we hit the “teens” and it all goes sideways.
Why do tens numbers 1-5 get special names? Why “eleven” and not oneteen? Why “twelve” and not twoteen? Threeteen, foUrteen, fiveteen. Then 16-19 are suddenly fine.
And while we’re nitpicking, Why aren’t the “teens” onety one, onety two…? No other number sets stray from the format beyond the teens.
And then we hit twenty. Why not twoty?
Why Thirty and not threety?
Why Forty and not fourty?
Why Fifty and not fivety!
Yet again, 60-90 are fine.
When they get out out of the tens, it goes back to normal, three hundred, not thir hundred.
Or for that matter why the -ty instead of ten? Why is 235 not two hundred, three ten, five?
2,325 would be Two thousand, three hundred, two ten, five.
Could I Google it? Sure. Will I? Probably. But not before posting this prime example of dull thought here for you lot to pick apart.

I've travelled to a fair few countries, and I'm always surprised at their plug game. Imo the UK plug stands far and above every other plug. Look at it, bold, strong, robust. What a plug!

I would find it exceedingly and satisfactorily dull if someone could provide me with some practical uses for dryer lint.

Fellow dulls, I need help identifying this object. Found in a random Walmart sack if that helps.

Had an impulse to get a dissecting microscope and just pulled this tick off me to try it out with. The most dull part is how my skin is still in its mouth. Cannot scale a banana this low

Decluttering (an endless hobby, reminiscent of King Canute commanding the tides) turned up this object. I have no idea what it is or why I have it. Ideas? Otherwise, I'll know what to do with it only after it's been discarded.

This is an insulated bottle which my colleague always stores in the fridge. This is an insulated bottle meaning that the internal contents are impervious to external temperature fluctuations due to the very nature of the bottles design and purpose - to maintain a consistent temperature within.
My colleague is convinced that storing this bottle in the fridge allows the bottle to maintain the temperature of its contents. I am convinced that the external walls of the bottles are the only part being affected by it's storage in the fridge and that the cooling sensation that this provides to the drinkers hands is giving an artifical sense of the liquid within being cooled further.
I tested this theory by storing room temperature water, in an identical bottle, in the fridge for approximately 24hrs. When I removed the bottle and tested the liquid against some water stored at room temp (finger dip, no thermometer to hand therefore not backed up by solid data) the liquid remained at what I consider room temperature. This indicated that the bottle did its job as expected and that the fridge had no impact on the contents.
Now I'm no scientist, but my colleague still stores the bottle in the fridge.

No banana because I do not store bananas in the fridge, nor do I eat them at work.

For the start of 2025 and in celebration of the 10th anniversary of "The Dress", I thought I'd bring back this dull internet debate.
So what colour do YOU see?? 👀
It has been a full decade and I'm still waiting for the chance to see the white/gold version 😭
Edit (because I didn't realize it would get this much traction and it's hard responding to all the comments lol): Firstly, sorry to the few I seem to have truly offended by bringing this back up. You could have scrolled by but you're allowed to voice your grievances. Notes have been taken for my eventual next post.
Secondly, this wasn't engagement farming, I truly find it's such a dull yet fascinating phenomenon! Even with the knowledge of the true colour of the dress (it's black and blue) people still see it white/gold. Also love the harmless, non toxic debates and discussions going on in the comments.
Lastly, I WANT TO SEE THE WHITE AND GOLD VERSION SO BAD 😭🤣 hahahah I love *getting* the illusion and I'm usually able to but I cannot do it at all with this. Doesn't matter editing, lighting, screens etc. I get the concept but my brain just won't allow it lol

To all of Dull Men's Club, I find myself in quite the pickle. My once pristine lawn, greener than a freshly ironed dollar bill, has transformed into a canine-crafted masterpiece resembling a deranged golf course. My four-legged friend's liquid contributions have created a tapestry of yellow polka dots and mysterious craters. How does one maintain one's reputation as the neighbourhoods most boring lawn enthusiast when one's grass looks like it's auditioning for a role in a post-apocalyptic mini-golf course? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, preferably before my neighbours mistake my garden for an avant-garde art installation.

I recently became the proud parent of a Sheepadoodle. However, every time someone asks me what breed of canine she is, I feel reluctant to say “Sheepadoodle.”
I understand there is a relatively dull trend of putting two words together to create a new word. I understand putting “Labrador” and “Poodle” together to get “Labradoodle.” What I don’t understand is where the “a” in “Sheepadoodle” comes from.
I hypothesize that it was pure laziness on the part of the original creator of the breed (although I have yet to research who that might be, so I’m hesitant to make that assumption.) I also would accept the theory that simply adding the extra “a” makes the word more phonetically pleasing.
After serious internal debate, I’ve decided to use the term “Sheepoodle” as often as possible in hopes it will catch on as the correct way to combine the words “Sheepdog” and “Poodle.” Any support in this endeavor would be much appreciated.
