The best use of music in a tv show is Motörhead on the Young Ones. It will never be bested.

There were no CEOs in Richard Scarry's Busy Busy World book so why do I have to keep reading about them as an adult?

Every AI chatbot should be legally required to have users recite IBM's rule of computing. "A computer can never be held accountable, therefore a computer must never make a management decision" before being given access to the tool.

‪One of the implications of Star Wars is that technology doesn't alleviate poverty or drudgery. Everyone is engaged in massively tech-enabled subsistence farming or manual labour; even white collar workers are card punching drones. This is the future our tech oligarchy want

Racists used to be afraid to speak. Now they're shameless. I don't care if they're burning hotels or writing in the Spectator, we've made it too easy for them with this "legitimate concerns" wank. We need to bring back shame for racists.

Objectively Galaxy Quest is one of.the best films of all time. Works as a sci-fi comedy, as straight sci-fi, as a straight up comedy, as a spoof and as a satire

Health messages on cigarette packets have worked. We should do the same with betting shops. A third of the frontage should have a big yellow on black sign saying "We're still in business because you keep on losing. You're all losers."

We have the Anon Opin era PM. This must be one of the most submitted things.

Andy Burnham to pledge free 3.5mm smartphone jack & headphones for every citizen

Not bombshells. Entirely on brand “appalling behaviour” and “extreme racism” from an appalling, extreme and racist party, led by an appalling, extreme and racist man. The apples are all rotten because the tree is. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

The bombshells from the undercover sting operation which plunged Reform into crisis

The party has been accused of ‘appalling behaviour’ and ‘extreme racism’ following staggering revelations

The BBC should not be "neutral". It should promote common decency and challenge anything that falls outside of this remit.

Don't have strong opinions on how your dishwasher should be stacked? That's fine, but be aware that your partner does, and is silently judging you for doing it wrong.

It’s always fun when you see someone eating something slightly unusual to be seen eating in public. Hats off to the lady eating a large bag of rocket leaves, on the tube, like you might a packet of crisps.

Get ready for slopigation, coming to a court/school board/regulatory agency near you

"Moms for Liberty is deploying artificial intelligence to monitor school board agendas across more than 13,000 school districts nationwide, giving parents advance warning about controversial policies before local officials vote on them, Fox News Digital has learned."

If your butter really has to go in the fridge or it'll spoil, you're not eating enough of it.

I like to write, I also pride myself on strong grammar. The frustration I get from AI stealing traits such as the em-dash is endless. What used to be a sign of a good copy writer is now interpreted as somebody who's lazy and relies on AI to do their writing.

Things I want AI to do for me * Emptying the dish washer and putting plates in cupboard * Washing my clothes and putting them on hangers * Using the bog brush to scrape shit from the bog that kids leave there * Putting the bins out * Looking for mould cups that I leave by the sofa

I don’t want to have AI do my writing for me. I don’t want it to design recipes for me. I don’t want its art, its music, its videos.

I spend an inordinate amount of time wandering round the house doing Columbo impressions. "Just one last thing, Mrs Dishwasher, there's something that's been bothering me... this spoon right here. Its been through 3 cycles now... it's still not clean. I just don't understand it."

Squirrel-proof bird feeders are absolutely not fucking squirrel-proof. Resourceful little bastards.

I knew my teenaged daughter was in her rebellious phase but I wasn't prepared for: a. her adding off-putting fruit from a fruit cup to her pizza slices, nor b. being called a "Pizza Karen" when I challenged her on it, nor c. the wife and son laughing at the term "Pizza Karen".

The quickest way to make UK roads a bit safer is for "a bit of fucking patience" to be added to the driving test.

I was always a bit baffled when I'd see people on Facebook asking questions that they could easily google, but they were ahead of the curve weren't they? Google is now AI shite, and asking people is what the cool kids do.

Today in Multivariable Calc, I mentioned the connection between the cross product and quaternions. So I showed them a photo of me with the Hamilton plaque in Dublin from this summer!

Just as you can buy a Coca-Cola bottle with your name on it, I should be able to get a personalised block of butter with mine.

When we moved house, I let rip with a nasty silent fart whilst fitting the (electric) oven. My wife, convinced I'd damaged a gas pipe, called an engineer who charged an emergency rate. Could've admitted it, but not after the family stood in the garden to prevent 'gas poisoning'.
