If you talk about someone's bastard child, you might be referring to a boy or a girl.
I both understand and accept that. Just speaking from personal experience, I've never thought of the term applying to a girl. That's all. however, there probably is a plethora of no-proof of it applying to male only.

That's because, in most people's personal experience in the last few centuries, it has been mostly applied to males, so it seems out-of-place to most of us when applied to a girl.

300 MEGa watts - how many amps is that?
Never heard of a fuse rated in "watts" or Megawatts - must be a joke (even though someone posted it in the Jokes Thread and claimed, "no joke". I don't get the joke or the "entertainment" value (as also claimed). Seems pretty off topic to me.

I don't see how it could be off topic, giving that watts is totally inappropriate measurement for a fuse. What is a joke to one person maybe a profound truth to another.

James Bond enters a bar. He looks around and takes a seat next to a very attractive lady. He gives her a quick glance and then casually looks at his watch for a moment.

The lady notices this and asks “Is your date running late?”

“No,” he replies. “Q has just given me the state-of-the-art watch. I was just testing it.”

The intrigued lady says “A state of the art watch? What’s so special about it?”

Bond explains, “It uses Alpha waves to talk to me telepathically.”

The lady says “What’s it telling you now?”

“Well, it says you’re not wearing any panties.”

The lady giggles and replies, “Well, it must be broken because I AM wearing panties.”

Bond smirks and taps his watch and says “Bloody thing’s an hour fast.”
