The USANCE AA - and someone's Ripley action figure
A Ripley action figure that looks nothing like Ripley. From the days when action figures never looked like the people they were based on due to licensing issues. Today's kids don't know how lucky they are to have realistic versions of David Tennant and Hugh Jackman to pitch against each other.
"A couple of USANCE batteries I found in a wireless keyboard today."
"And seeing as adding Daleks to the shot seemed to work for the last guy, these now have - 0% Cadmium & Mercury, 20% Dalek AND 40% Powerloader Ripley at no extra cost!"
"If better quality required I canmail you the originals" - Rob (GigerPunk).
Uh-oh! Rob has given away his secret internet identity!
In nine years from now, Rob's then-partner will dredge up a slightly dodgy comment left on a slightly dodgy blog about slightly dodgy Asian women holding mobile phones.
Think of an excuse now, Rob. Then save it in the easy-access front part of your brain, for when you're asked what "Would" means in relation to a photo of a tiny Asian girl in blue hotpants.
Terry Nation was ahead of his time in allowing accurate likenesses of his creations be used in the toy industry.
"EXTERMINATE... the problems of flat batteries with long-lasting USANCE(TM) Super Alkaline."
"GET AWAY FROM HER YOU... low-performing alkaline battery so I can load up these long-lasting USANCE(TM) Super Alkaline batteries instead."
Oh. We've done USANCE before. At least twice. But not in AA format.

Oh. Arse.
Still, makes a change from yet another person called Dan I suppose, isn't it?
And hey ho, my wife's always dredging stuff up about me from the internet, it's how we met after all...I doubt this will surprise her.

bah. i take it my batteries are never going to be posted then. Just because i didn't do anything interesting with them and just took photos of some batteries. :(
Rob has a wife? Jeez. Badben has kids... even Idiot has apparently fooled some woman into associating with him.
How do you people hide those real personalities? Some advice?
Nice battery work... ... ...Rob!
The trouble with this trend of photographing batteries WITH FIGURES is that, should I take any battery photos, I don't have any FIGURES.
I'd have to make do with one of the SURREAL LEGO MONSTOSITIES that my 6 year old constructs, but I'm not sure the world (or even the small portion of it that reads I.T.) is ready to see such things.

Is there such a thing as these photo's on the internets or is it just a myth?
If they do exist could somebody tell me where to find them. Purely for research purposes you understand.
That's not Ripley. That's Egg Monroe, she's older.
but what time of camera was it?
sorry I meant type of camera.
Scott - It's a Konica Minolta Dimage z5
And it's 9.49am
Were there ever white Daleks? Dalbinos?
wv: sciend: fiendish scientist
Semi-ashamed to say it but yes, in both "Revelation of the Daleks" (uuter tosh) and Remembrance of the Daleks (Classic).
Mine are the latter I suspect, going by the fact they have gold ‘plunger’, gun, light covers and eye stalk.
I should probably have known that, given that I was a fully paid up member of the Doctor Who Fanclub (in 1974). I had a badge and everything. Everything being some crappy newsletter.
What is canmail? Some sort of message in a bottle? A modern twist on medieval armour?
