Dot Matrix

Sorry folks. You have to live in the UK (the real one, not Richard Curtis' Britain), or at least have watched a handful of episodes of EastEnders to fully appreciate the picture on the right.

[via Dr Bitful]

Richard Curtis' Britain: a magical place where it snows consistently for most of the winter, love is all around - you feel it in your fingers, you feel it in your toes - and floppy-haired people say things like "Bugger my auntie!" when they get mad.

EastEnders: long-running TV soap set in fictional Walford, where aitches are dropped and characters killed off in the most spectacular ways. Used to be shown on BBC America and gathered quite a substantial following (among which Jen and Brad, apparently) until it was axed last September. There's even an online petition to bring it back.

Dot Cotton (now Branning): Eastenders character. Despite her harmless appearance as a chainsmoking religious gossiping launderette assistant, has managed to go to prison for shoplifting and has enjoyed the effects of cannabis tea. Ooh, I say!

Dot matrix: Type of printer.
