Oh, right. Then it must be Bob Marley’s hair:
No that's dreadlocks. A deadlock is an early class of battleship.
No, that's Dreadnought. Deadlock is a Batman villain who is an expert in firearms.
Not, you're thinking of Deadshot. A deadlock is a Scottish body of water that has been polluted to the point that no life exists in the lake.
No, you’re thinking of a dead lach. A deadlock is an anti folk music pioneer—not really dead yet though he claims to be dead inside.
No, you're thinking of Lach who as far as I know is still alive. Deadlock is that cyborg guy from Marvel comics.
Ackchyually, you're referring to Deathlok. Deadlock is a cartoon metal band from the mid to late 2000s.
sorry to ruin the chain but it’s loch, not lach. no irn bru for you!
Eh I just misspelled it, the spirit, pronunciation are still there. I consider the chain in tact.
Hmmm. I think you're thinking of a dreadnaught. A deadlock is a magic using class in popular roleplaying games whose game powers are granted by a powerfu, but often manipulative, patron.
That's a warlock. Deadlock is the first frontman from AC/DC, before they got that Geordie fellow.
No that's a dead loch. A deadlock is the bond of matrimony between two individuals
Honestly, I read it as dreadlocks in the first place.
Me too. I was really wondering what sort of interview this was.
I read the post as "dreadlock" like three times in a row lol. I have been employed as a developer for many years and I don't think I've ever heard of "deadlock" as a named concept until now. The more you know.
