I don't like how the word 'ridiculous' has somehow come to mean the opposite of ridiculous. How did that happen? I agree. It's ridiculous
Living down here does have some advantages. At least you can see them cry. |

Whenever I check in to a Travelodge they always ask for my surname. After I give it they always seem to say "fantastic!". Hardly. I really think that they are setting the benchmark a bit low there. I've not discovered the cure for cancer. I've just been able to remember what my surname is. Perhaps they look at me and think that's really impressive for a man of my age.

More likely they are impressed about a Travelodge customer rather than anything to do with age

LinkedIn is prime territory for this kind of drivel. A lot of people call themselves 'influencers'. The only thing they influence me to do is think that they're pompous tossers. Social influencer. Aaaaaagggghhhhhh!!!!

I get more annoyed that they seem to time their “is everything ok with your meal?” to the moment I’ve shovelled half my plate in my mouth.

Anyone saying Yeah, no ........ or No, yeah...... in response to a question. Especially Harry Kane in his interviews.

I remember hearing an interview with Callum Wilson a couple of years ago in which he answered almost literally every question like that. So many people do it nowadays, though.

When walking with my 9 year old and she makes an inappropriate use of the word "wait" as a meaningless prefix to a sentence i come to a dead stop and wait as instructed.
