||:The wheels on the bus go round and round :|| [x3] all day long.
Not at stops, when theyāre in the depot, when theyāre at traffic lights, or on numerous other occasions, they donāt.
There are a great many times during the day that the wheels on the bus are frankly at a standstill. The best that can be said, really, is that when the bus is in service and on its route, we would hope that the wheels are going round and round enough times for the bus to meet its timetable commitments, but that this cannot always be guaranteed, roads and engines being what they are.

Dark side of the moon
As a matter of fact, it's all dark
No it isn't, any more than the earth is "all dark".

I know songs that mention Santa Claus, rather than āFather Christmasā (which to me was just a posh thing they said on Blue Peter), but Iād need to check the lyrics for in-universe consistency.Oh goodness. Next you will be saying father Christmas does not exist

You made me think of this:
In the bleak mid-winter
Frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron,
Water like a stone;
Snow had fallen, snow on snow,
Snow on snow,
In the bleak mid-winter
Long ago.
Now, I donāt claim to know whether flocks were grazed on high ground during winter in ancient Judea, but if they were it would not have been bleak. I very much doubt that if snow had been falling, snow on snow, snow on snow, in the Middle East, that the shepherds would be taking their sheep out in it, certainly not very far.
I put it to you, that Christina Rossetti was very much mistaken about the physical circumstances of Jesusā birth, possibly the season, but definitely the prevailing weather conditions.

That's a debatable one which has many popular music numbers about it.

On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:
Twelve drummers drumming,
Eleven pipers piping,
Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
No. Fucking. Way.

People get a bit mixed up. I donāt personally believe for a moment that Jesus (Yeshua Ben Yosef?) was anything supernatural or divine. But there ample evidence that he existed. More than for many people of the era whom we have no trouble believing existed. We have no grave for many, many historical figures, for example.

How do I change this 'custom title' thing then?
Even Lichtenstein has 86 people in their army. And I reckon living in the mountains theyād all be hill farmers and mountain guides so fit as fuck. So even the smallest army in the world could hold him back on their own. Let alone the PLA.
