@SteveArch @MikeWingerii Best typo ever. 🤣

The disappointing end of my short Greg Locke saga. Lies. Lots of lies. I don't want to keep talking about this so I've included most relevant details (and evidences) in this video, going back about two years and ending with the most recent junk from this morning.

@susie_dent Sounds like we need an updated version of The Meaning of Liff. 🙂

A question: what are the things you wish there was a word for? And have you come up with your own word to fill that gap?

@jmd60 @SteveNeale70 @Feargal_Sharkey Read his tweet again.

@SteveNeale70 @Feargal_Sharkey Privatised by Thatcher! Not sure what any privatisation of utilities had to do with Labour. Perhaps you could explain

I need 100,000 signatures to win a parliamentary debate about the ownership of the water industry. Do your thing internet. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/7626…

@dolphinkrishna @SteveNeale70 @Feargal_Sharkey He didn't say it was Labour. 🤔

@SteveNeale70 @Feargal_Sharkey It was the Tories who privatised everything - NOT Labour!!!!

@compliantvc @JamesLucasIT 🤣

@JamesLucasIT Hard to watch a society struggle to function without the protections of GDPR

This is what London looked like 120 years ago

@townsqwisdom @PenumbraeLeo @ClarkeMicah Science doesn't prove *anything* with 100% certainty; it looks for the explanation that best fits with the available evidence. It sounds like you're using a 'god of the gaps' to plug holes in scientific understanding.

@PenumbraeLeo @ClarkeMicah 2/ belief in God is for me is the rational choice. I’ve fought against this ‘knowing’ most of my life. I wanted science to prove this universe has a scientific explanation But every theory/ equation has to be so abstracted it falls down at the first test of a Popper truth box.

Belief in God is no more irrational than atheism. Both are speculation on the unknowable. Not sure what 'supernatural' means, now that science has revealed so much of inner and outer space to us.

@Rainmaker1973 I'm assuming there must be a perfectly good reason why she doesn't use a tray. 🙃

A waitress in a Bavarian dirndl at Oktoberfest carries 13 large, one-liter mugs of beer to customers.

@afneil Mainstream is one word. It should be MM. 😉

Indeed. Using info gleaned from MSM.

@LuanHanratty @neheritagelib What acorny reply. 😊

@neheritagelib They let him leaf early after grassing to special branch

I’m gonna bite In retrospect, the decision to imprison someone for felling that tree was insane. Pure driven by twee Captain Tom, Paddington melodrama

@RacingDFS @KylePorterNS Since people are convinced that flying to Augusta for practice rounds means you do better in the Masters and thus win more prize money, that private jet would essentially pay for itself. 🙃

@KylePorterNS there is some truth to it. Rory has the luxury of being able to pass on the Texas swing cause he doesn’t need the money or points, and he also has the money to private jet to Augusta as much as he wants. most PGA players can’t do these things

The "he got an unfair advantage!" folks on this stupid, stupid app who generate so much angst and anger around the idea that Rory is one of the greatest players in history bring me so much delight. Like, please do continue replying to all of us with things like "get off your knees" (and much more vile stuff than that) because I am absolutely going to continue enjoying writing about and covering a once-in-a-generation golfer. Nothing could be more fun than the most dynamic person currently in the sport somehow also being one of the 10 best to ever do it. And so many people (bots, whatever) cannot help themselves but to rage against the joy of these events and the beauty disclosed by his game. Just try and enjoy something wonderful!

@SJTM33 @glenn_frazer @Daniel_Rapaport Remember that the earliest Open champions only had to beat a few dozen players from GB&I. You can't really compare that with modern majors.

@glenn_frazer @Daniel_Rapaport He just isn't though. Unless we're suddenly saying majors aren't the benchmark, in which case prime Tiger Woods is the GOAT and it ain't close.

So Rory is the best European ever and top 10 all-time now, right? Poetic that it's Augusta National—the course that tortured him more than any other—where he's jolted his major count back into life. 6 and counting.

@DepressedBSF @RMTracker He could have if he'd wanted to. 🤷‍♂️

@RMTracker I wish Scottie got to play the course 23 times leading up to the tournament

If he manages to get this across the finish line, this will go down as THE shot

@MyCreativeOwls @TheMasters No...he's still number 2. Scheffler is miles ahead.

@TheMasters Is he now number 1 in the world?

Rory McIlroy is the 2026 Masters champion. #themasters

@2suunjoon @shirleyhow1951 @Dude_Abiding_ @MMcEwanGolf Sure it was. 🤪

@shirleyhow1951 @Dude_Abiding_ @pstni @MMcEwanGolf It was all over social media & the news when it was happening

Guy in the crowd growls “give me back my son” - like Mel Gibson in the movie Ransom - after Rory hits his tee shot on 17. You don’t often hear that guff around ANGC and I suspect he’s being escorted off the property as I type.

@Dude_Abiding_ @MMcEwanGolf It's not...any more than shouting "mashed potatoes" or "baba booey" is. 🙃

@pstni @MMcEwanGolf No, I know that part, sorry. Why is the phrase applicable to Rory?

@Dude_Abiding_ @MMcEwanGolf Some idiotic golf fans shout ridiculous catchphrases when players tee off, so they can hear themselves on the TV coverage. The Masters has very strict rules, so any offenders would likely be removed from the course, pronto. ⛳️

@MMcEwanGolf Can someone explain this to me, please?

@JWDrennan I sat at the next table to him in @boojummex, once. 😄

Rory McIlroy and I shared a driving instructor and his tiny Nissan Micra in Northern Ireland at the same time; we're practically related.

@BenColeyGolf For comparison, I wonder how often people win back-to-back at regular tour events? 🤔

Great visual that helps illustrate how trends can be viewed multiple ways. Just two of 40 seems bad, but how many would we have expected? 3 would certainly represent statistical *over*-performance.

@TollytB Reminds me of the classic: There was a young man from Japan Whose limericks weren't very good They didn't rhyme And they were too short. 😄

There was a young man from cork who got limericks and haikus confused 🐢💨

@RationalVo1ce @gsd_chris @TaylorRMarshall Typical. All talk. 😬

@pstni @gsd_chris @TaylorRMarshall Blocked me too. Sign of a true coward with no conviction in their opinion.

Do you believe that Jesus Christ was wrapped in the burial shroud that we now call the “Shroud of Turin”? I do!
