Do you ever simultaneously want and not want something at the same time? For me this evening, it's a Magnum.

National underwear day and I'm not even wearing any... 🤷.

The other half has started learning Chinese on Duolinguo. I'll be honest, it sounds like his phone making random noises followed by him making very different random noises.
I refuse to accept self driving cars until they can make printers that work.
This is a book I also read as a teenager and it had much the same effect on me. Excellent book, much like several other travel ones by Paul Theroux, even if I'm sure quite dated by now.
1: a book you’ve reread the most times? I suspect it’s The Great Railway Bazaar by Paul Theroux. I’ve not read it in years, but when I was young it awoke a wonder in me of how accessible the world might be if only you stepped out and explored it.
Don't mind me, just doing my semi-regular "how long until I can retire" calculations...
My alarm this morning rudely interrupted a very steamy encounter. It was just dream (the encounter, not the alarm) but still...
I recognise the specific context here but “Please, I need my car to meet criminals” is a very funny plea for leniency.

Can't believe that GWR store their crew in a little cupboard on their trains.
We just watched the first episode of Ann Droid: I laughed out loud several times! I wasn't expecting much from what I've heard about it but I think I'm going to enjoy this.
Either accountant, or sailor in the Navy, children's rides importer, Chinese restaurant owner, or market manager.
Enough “what would you do on the commune questions” If you got sent back 100 years and were given your grandparent’s job, what are you doing?
It's remarkable that Marvel planned so far ahead, they were advertising the new Spiderman film even before our old carpet was put down.
Do I know anyone that wants to buy a lightly used log burner...? (Mess, transport and installation not included.)
Today's job: pull up the stair carpet and remove all the underlay staples ready for a new carpet on Monday. I can already feel the dust in my throat.
share a celebrity you find distractingly attractive Seeing as it's cricket season, I'm sharing my cricket husband.

I cooked something new for dinner: chorizo with lentils and roasted peppers. It didn't look good, so no photos. It didn't taste all that great, so I probably won't cook it again either.
My ear is giving me grief and I'm afraid this might be the worst thing to happen to anyone anywhere since my last minor ailment.
A distant relative from Australia told me yesterday how she gets three MONTHS of leave as a reward for ten years' service, increasing by a WEEK every year. I think I'm still seething with jealousy.
It's my grandmother's 90th birthday party today. I'm expecting to see some family members I've not seen in so long that I'll literally not recognise them.
Dennis Taylor. I think he's just lovely to listen to. And he's somehow able to make something a lot of people find boring sound interesting, so, you know, that's a valuable skill.
You suddenly get a narrator describing your life and there’s no way to turn it off - everyone can hear it. While shopping, at work, at home, with friends - the voice narrating your every move goes on. Who do you hope is the voice of this narrator?
Ever read a take so stupid that you feel like it's just punched you in the face?
