How on earth did you get those little lashes over the o's? Intrigued!

There are several keyboards available on PCs depending on which language you wish to type for, teejay. I'm sitting here using the keyboard on a Windows phone and if one 'long presses' on a character then the other options pop up for that key.
For example if I 'long press' on the 'e' key I get the options of e,3,é,ê,è,ë. If I long press on the 'o' key I get the options of o,ø,ò,ó,ö,ô.œ,9.
A very useful key for me is the '0' key because that gives the option of 0,° which saves me having to use 'deg'.

We (that is, I!) now need an expert to explain how the sets of alternative characters can be easily called up on a conventional PC keyboard!

They're not purposeless,more like purposeful.I find that a nose and ear hair remover is essential equipment,why is it that as I get older I can't grow any hair on my head and yet on other parts of the body hair seems to grow faster.:mad:

I find that a small flame thrower (a gas hob lighter might suffice) works well, wak44.
If the nose and hair growth hasn't been tackled for a week or two it's sensible to have a fire bucket of water to hand.

I'm hoping an expert passes by soon, teejay. Apparently we both need one.

I don't know how to change my keyboard to use The o's (LOL got any o's?) with the little eyes over them. I'm on a laptop and went to Cortana and typed character map. That came up and I selected the two large O's which somehow mystically appeared when I began typing my last message-they are no longer there now though! So my education continues. So I am still looking for O's large or small!:Thinking_Face_Emoji:Smiling_Face_Emoji:

Edina, we (I speak on behalf of teejay here) need your input.

A battery operated electric fingernail polisher. Now surely that's a Purposeless Product?

Search for character map and it gives you codes for each symbol/letter. You hold down alt and type the numeric value for the one you want.

Thanks, Chris. I'll try that when I get back to my Windows PC.

Haha, reminds me of when my dad used to use a lighter to remove hair from his torso and chest, once, and only once I must state, he started at the bottom :Tears_of_Joy_Emoji:, came off a lot quicker, but lost some eyebrows into the bargain. Dozy bugger.

Hilarious! Though both painful and reckless.
The things we do in the name of appearance and vanity. Like the dreaded back, crack and sack wax.
Do men really subject themselves to such masochistic treatment? I admit to having neanderthal status when it comes to body hair but I'm keeping it all attached.

Are there any ladies prepared to join in here and own up to their innermost fears in this department?

Any ideas what this totally Purposeless Product is?

It’s a pile remover sharp end for removing and if that doesn’t work shove em in with thick end ouch?
 
Yorkslass and oldish hippy are very, very close.
Wully is obviously inventive but (fortunately) not so close.

Anyone else? The definitive answer will be posted at approximately 2000 today so get your suggestions in before then!
