Seeing as it's my born month and I appear to have beaten the bastard cancer, it is time for another edition of Operation Eat Less and Exercise More. Link for donations on my Facebook below to Macmillan Cancer if so inclined. LFG. facebook.com/donate/1071429…

@beastoftraal My favourite cold open was "good morning, the wheel of existential horror has once again resumed turning". I aspire to reach the stage of being completely devoid of fucks so that I can use it myself.

I don't think I'll ever be able to read, "I hope this email finds you well" in an email without laughing out loud 😂

@grok @sentenza_AE @wificybernetics @pmddomingos slow and horrible it is then.

It’s too late for humanity now. Claude has discovered the Kobayashi Maru test.

@grok @sentenza_AE @wificybernetics @pmddomingos quick and painless or slow and horrible, depending on your subscription.

@RobJF24 @MrsCobb1979 @celtic_jaime This new Nigella Bake Off is going to be wild.

@MrsCobb1979 @celtic_jaime

I need to try make this 😋

@ViewCue It was the right thing for the tournament and the sponsor. It was entirely the wrong thing for Jack.

@Ranulf_84 @Chef_EZToon @archaicf0ssil 'Oh yeah. I broadcast it as strongly as I could.' states Andrew when asked if he played Garak as gay. trekmovie.com/2020/07/07/int…

@Chef_EZToon @archaicf0ssil Nonsense. Andrew never played Garak as gay. He just was a spy acting like a tailor. Thats all. Some people just have too much fantasy. And Bashir was also only interested in women.

Garak and Bashir weren't allowed to kiss on screen so the writers had to come up with things even gayer than gay sex. Garak was so into it when Bashir shot him.

@JoeyWatcherElba @GoodforWho_ but are you pink hat chill?

@GoodforWho_ Sweet

PATRICK FUCKING GAY LOVER THEATER WORM STEWART???? Are you insane.

@GaryBleck @danascullesbian what happens in the holosuites didn't stay in the holosuites.

@danascullesbian Bashir got Kira pregnant with Keiko and O’Brian’s baby because DS9 is just that horny.

WHAT THE FUCK WHY IS KEIKOS BABY INSIDE KIRA

@Twitchyichabod @BreatheLesss

@BreatheLesss I mentioned this to our guide at the Vatican - she looked kind of uncomfortable and then said she had never heard of this and that they don’t really do theological (?!) interpretations

One time I mentioned this theory to an art history major. She looked me dead in the eyes and said:

@matthewbcafc @InTheBalls147 @markwil147 they do a little face if you idle..

@simongrowcott @InTheBalls147 @markwil147 It may be the Mandela effect but i swear one of the snooker games i played, the balls did the Macarena if you took too long too, was it Jimmy Whites game too?

I don't know if anyone remembers this World Championship Snooker PS1 game. There's praise written all over the case. 'Masterpiece' , '9/10'. It has @markwil147 on the back. I dont know if players ever had a go back in 2000 Well, 26 years later. I just bought it and can't wait 😅

@MrsCobb1979 Sorry for your loss. good that you were able to connect again.

@SomeDudeTex @archaicf0ssil that was the easy option. O'BRIEN MUST SUFFER.

@archaicf0ssil With the exception of...

Deep Space Nine really feels like the most bisexual show in existence

@sagefleur @mrmikeMTL Large Hadron Collider. I am absolutely convinced it pushed us into an alternate universe.

@mrmikeMTL harambe

Can anyone pin-point the exact moment where everything in society just got substantially worse?

@HelpSheffield @hedonisticgamer I went to scope this one out for a pub crawl and was aggressively refused entry from a bouncer because 'I wasn't with anyone'. Avoid.

@hedonisticgamer It has limited opening times but we’d suggest Mr Wilson’s on West Street. It’s a mock speakeasy place.

@jaykay3737 It's not just the heat, it's the lack of air flow as well. It is properly horrible in there. To the extent that I'm not really interested in going again.

I know it's supposedly really warm in there, but how are you nodding off on the front row in the 2nd frame??

@emma_clairexx I appreciate such people. By showing a lack of respect to your interests they clearly mark themselves as unworthy of spending an iota of attention to. Saves everyone time.

people like this are so strange to me, i’m just a 21 year old girl who wants to post about my interests and people that make me happy i don’t see why it’s an issue 🫣

@RobJF24 @OOCSnooker ah righto. not just the chap in the man city hat then. i figure he's going to suffer enough in the next few years anyway.

@simongrowcott @OOCSnooker Not the same guy. The original chap just did it for the Zhou match as it's been one they've done for years, but then others across the arena loved it so much that they took it to rather extreme levels 😅

Someone in Blackpool leather that twat singing who let the dogs out please

@Nick_Metcalfe Wasn’t as terrible as I was led to believe. Dominic Dale’s jacket a particular highlight.

People say I’m rather fond of pontificating - and yes they have got a point - so as I went to Christmas bashes today and missed every single minute of the snooker, why don’t you tell me your verdict. I’m particularly keen to hear from fans in Blackpool. #Snooker #ShootOut
