I've never understood the mystique of ven diagrams. It's so obvious that if a and b overlap the middle bit is ab Am I missing something?
*draws keewik a vendiagram to illustrate the point*
Right now this circle represents those who understand Venn diagrams and this circle represents those who do not and this third circle represents those who have no interest in Venn diagrams.
So you see that this roughly triangular bit in the centre of the overlap are those people who both understand and do not understand Venn diagrams, but don't care a toss anyway.
The Olympics is a classic example of a venn diagram. Audi drivers in an attempt to convince the world that they are sporty actually stick them on the front of their cars but would actually move a discus further if they shoved the bloody thing up their arse and then filled up on a tank of fully leaded and drove up to sodding Dundee.

I never saw the point of them, you can't actually do anything with them AFAIK.

RIP Pete Seeger. I spent my student years singing those songs.
A wife asks her husband, "Could you please go shopping for me and buy one carton of milk and if they have avocados, get 6.
A short time later the husband comes back with 6 cartons of milk.
The wife asks him, "Why did you buy 6 cartons of milk?"
He replied, "They had avocados."
If you're a woman, I'm sure you're going back to read it again! Men will get it the first time.

Ha, bloody ha. That's because their grammar is poor (the men, not the avocados).
