If AI was genuinely useful your employees would choose to use it, you wouldn't have to mandate its use.

Cinema lobbies should only play film scores and not regular music.

If you need 9ft of tarmac either side of you on a motorway, how the fuck do you manage to drive on any other road. Stick to the left, fuckin middle lane wankers

The ire directed at 90s comedians for saturating the children's book market with slop is well deserved, but let's spare a little hate for the TV presenters who have flooded crime fiction with identikit, most-likely ghostwritten, "cosy" murder-mystery guff.

The problem with Italian restaurants is that they can't do pasta properly. They always serve it with lots of bite in it and the sauce isn't sweet enough. It's amazing how much they charge and they still can't equal what you can get in a tin for 45p at Tesco.

There's many frustrations in the world: the rise of fascism; corrupt, paedo billionaires; the death of rationalism. But nothing as frustrating as blackhead squeezing videos where you know there is still some in there and they don't go back and give it a second squeeze.

Most album reviews are disposable because they're written too soon.
"what do I think after two listens?" Is a shit way of reviewing. Some albums take years before you realise how great they were, or how over hyped.

Every nation should treat billionaires like a natural resource and mine them of their riches until exhausted, just like a nice thick seam of coal or a reservoir of oil, then make the spoils available to the nation's citizens. If they crop up again, mine them again.

If someone says something along the lines of "it's not racist to like ice cream", their statement is true, but there's a 99% chance they're the kind of person who'd somehow find a racist way to like ice cream.

Much has been said about cloud subscriptions being rental rather than ownership. That's clearest when Google, Apple etc deactivate an account, usually because of suspected fraud, effectively changing the locks—with all your stuff still inside. Even landlords wouldn't do that.

There hasn't been a single time in the kitchen where whacking a bit of Stilton or Roquefort in a sauce hasn't improved it. Just enough to perceive the body, not enough for it to be cheesy. Try it in a curry, it's life altering.

In films grieving the death of a parent involves travel to a home town, reconnecting with an old flame or finding deeper meaning, often while staring out over the sea.In reality it's doing all the stuff you usually do and dealing with someone else's admin.

There's nothing wrong with saying a bands most commercially successful album is also their best one. There's nothing clever about your contrarian view that really it's the fourth album that flopped and no one else likes.

"Living at home" is a bullshit phrase because home is where you live. If you mean "living with parents" say that.

Storing eggs in the fridge is just wrong. They are safe to store at ambient temperature and that gives you extra fridge space for stuff that actually needs to be refrigerated.

Think we've reached the point where it's more of a flex to have a crappy old car than a shiny new one. Shows you have your priorities straight. I work in car insurance and can confirm that the vast, vast majority of people with fancy cars have them on ludicrous finance deals

Lots of people want to donate their body to science. But I am one of the growing number of people who think we should be allowed to donate bodies to apprentice tattoo artists. Every ink shop should have a corpse tattoo artists can test designs on.

People will gladly eat the same breakfast and lunch 5-6 days out of the week. Suggest the same evening meal 2 nights in a row however, and you're looked at like you've escaped from an asylum.

Onion in recipes should be by weight not number, as they vary by size considerably. Tonight's dish requires "6 onions" which is anything from 300g to nearly 2.5kg. Based on what we had in our fridge, that is.
