The Europeans have got it right. Mayonnaise is the best condiment to put on chips.

I have researched it and there is only one country in the world with 1. a warm climate, 2. a sane and stable government, and 3. no propensity for natural disasters. Uruguay. I intend to move there as soon as I can persuade my wife.

Open mic nights where all the slots are booked up in advance are, by definition, NOT open mic nights. Too many are being run like this and we need a new name for this sort of thing.

Wearing socks & sandals is the most comfortable your feet will ever be. You don't have to believe me, try it for yourself.

People who have bags or cases with two zips, but only use one rather than meeting both in the middle, like they're supposed to, are nobs.

There's no more joyful intro to a song than the start of Tiger Feet by Mud.

Please ban all radio/streaming adverts containing car horns and emergency sirens ASAP. Tired of looking in my mirrors when I hear them when driving.

Today's trend of men wearing too tight suits where the jacket doesn't even close properly will in future be judged more harshly than any other era of men's fashion

The British public refuse to accept that it's cheaper to provide welfare than withdraw it. Fewer benefits result in increased crime and poorer public health, requiring increased resources for the police and NHS. Prevention is cheaper than the cure, it's that fucking simple.

One of the worst uses of AI is in the voiceovers for workplace training videos. It takes on a weird, staccato feel with pauses and emphasis in all the wrong places. It's like someone reading an autocue where they can only see two words in advance.

Anyone who uses an em dash when posting comments on any social media platform is a bot.

Transferring schools just because the ofsted has changed is selfish and can do more damage to the child than they will ever gain. Consider their needs first.

The fact that Jim Steinman never got to write a James Bond theme is a travesty.

The greatest tv comedy ever is Attention Scum.
Unfortunately there's only one series of 6 episodes which was broadcast on bbc2 back in 2001 in the graveyard slot of midnight on Sundays. Shown once, never repeated nor released on dvd. Consequently very few people have heard of it.

The profit margin on tickets for live performances should be capped at 15% and rigorously enforced by government. The maximum price for any gig should be £75 and the mode price should be £20.

Nobody gives off a desperate "Please let me be in your gang" vibe quite like Zuckerberg.

I have a horrible feeling that not only are Led By Donkeys not helping, but they might be making it worse by legitimising pointless armchair activism. 100,000s of people sharing a sarky post about Elon Musk gives him the oxygen of publicity and doesn't change a thing.

If you have gotten rich by walking over the shattered remains of the products, services, and organisations you've ruined, you're not a success. You're a fucking parasite.

To all the people posting old pics and saying everything looked better then are forgetting that cameras used to be expensive and so did film, so taking pictures was often well planned and saved for special occasions. Not like every fucker snapping every move they make these days.

So we can now write emails using AI and have incoming emails summarised by using AI. Just how fucking lazy do we want people to be?! It's almost like we want forthcoming generations to be illiterate.
