- Brit plays a bad shot
- Whispered 'FFS'
- Commentator - 'apologies if you heard any frustration there'.
Disappointly dull trousers for the Norwegian curling teams at this Olympics.
I am from a country formerly colonised by the British, one famous for tea. I have found that the best way to annoy British people is to casually drop a teabag in a mug of cold water and stick it in the microwave. I don't even like tea. I do it just for the trolling entertainment.
Just for once it would be nice to open a news website without immediately being confronted with some new utterly unhinged thing said or done by the Great Orange Bloviator.
This Christmas I've cooked, cleaned and run around after our entire extended family. My other half has done fuck all, except sit and complete a very tricky 1000 piece jigsaw. Unfortunately when they get to the end, they'll find it's now a 999 piece jigsaw. I ate a piece in spite
So, America just unilaterally kidnapped a foreign leader because they deemed him an out of control dictator?
Canada could do the funniest thing right now…
Stockholm might be the most festive city I’ve ever seen. Lights and decorations everywhere.
Bad luck Scotland - still 0-31-2 all time vs the All Blacks.
Satan has been spotted.
I am shocked to discover that the whole delay repay process for claiming back the costs of disrupted rail travel seems to be a scam designed to cause you to give up in frustration.
4 rejected claims so far for one incident because the circumstances don't fit their pre-defined selection options.
I for one am shocked to hear that:
- There may be an AI bubble.
- It will probably burst.
It’s not like this has happened before or anything…
Sigh - another day trying to avoid being screwed by insurance.
Policy renewal - £914/year.
Exact same policy from same company taken out as a new policy - £580/year.
Bastards.
The Orange Bloviator approaches...
Meanwhile in America, when a guy tried to ferment an uprising against his election defeat, they re-elected him president.
It might just say something about Trump's presidency that if he's not seen or heard commiting any impeachable or illegal acts for a few days, the natural assumption must be that he's dead.
This is basically Munich 1938.
Looking forward to Trump returning to Washington to proclaim ’peace in our time’.
Nat Sciver-Brunt is like ‘sigh, it’s up to me. Again’
Somehow managed to survive the North Herts binpocalypse today…
Always nice to get a midday wake up call courtesy of the United States Air Force.
Very low pass over my house by 2 x F-35s and one F-15.
Nice to see that a lot of Labour MPs finally remembered that they are in fact in the Labour Party, and that acting like Tories in disguise is not actually a Good Thing.
This is pretty fucking devious from Marriot Bonvoy - the unsubscribe link is miniscule and buried at the bottom of the email, and the options to actually unsubscribe are baffling. Which ones do you choose?
Nothing like a trip to Cambridge to remind you what a miserable experience it is
Alcatraz? Really?
I assume this is because he watched The Rock last night.
Was on a long haul flight recently, thought I'd watch the film Conclave.
Can't help but feel this might be all my fault.
Came all the way to New Zealand, heard a plane flying overhead yesterday, looked up, it was an An-124. Not something you see here very often.
The chariot is coming to take me home.
Hey you big orange baby, will you please stop tanking the world stock markets? You're making everyone poorer.
