  • I can’t remember what I said but whilst deep in conversation with myself early one morning on the way to work I made eye contact with a woman who was getting out of her car. I froze, her expression quickly changed to something I can only describe as an “I’m not getting raped today” face with a mixture of sheer terror and indignant anger, before she got back in her car and sped away. That one also shook me for a good few months, mostly due to her parting visage.

    I find myself often coming out with “finger in the butt” or some variation (finger in your butt, finger up the butt etc) which is a bit weird as I’m English and don’t use the word butt in normal conversation. Also, for some reason lately the “N” word in lots of permutations. It’s not completely involuntary as I can control it when I need to but I’m not really consciously doing it when it happens either. Like you, friend, I think something may indeed be wrong with me and that it’s time I have someone else check myself, before I wreck myself.










  • Holy shit: “The company is recommending that customers do a factory reset on the product and find some way of responsibly recycling the hardware.”

    So they’re not offering to dispose of it, or even giving any advice on how to dispose of it responsibly. Just suggesting people should probably do that.

    If companies are allowed to behave this way we’re all screwed. Any efforts by the average person to avert the environmental damage caused by the waste they produce is completely futile and any politician who claims that they’re doing their best to try to hold companies accountable is a liar.
