The sheep that doesn’t know the shepherd
I’m going to have yet another pop at that fascinating show Love Island. How people are picked for love island is because they are pure id, I see them as unreal undeveloped people with zero worth or talent. The sort of people who want to realise their own desires and the expression of them without Continue reading

Formed, by nitwits
I have a very basic rule I use when I create any type of user data gathering mechanism. If you make a method for others to input data into, and you then have to teach those people how to use it, or if you have to write more than a few lines to explain it, Continue reading

I’m British and it’s my turn… (my queueing experience)
I’m going to have a rant… I’m sick of shit service, I’m sick of queuing, and I’m sick of fancy coffee. My pal Dave and I are at a services near Birmingham just off the M5 in England. Birmingham is the second most populated city in the UK after London. Dave drives an electric car, Continue reading

People watching
We are at the services in Gloucester having coffee and a snack, we have been to many many services in the last few years as Em often needs the loo, I’m told it’s a woman thing, who am I to disagree? People Watching is not just a 2025 song by Sam Fender, it’s a phenomenon Continue reading

10 years hence person
We are watching now, what some comedians and commentators are saying on TV, and we are entertained for the most part. The statements they are making cause no ire at all, they’re just banter, nobody is upset by them… but we have come to realise that in 10 years time we may see someone, from Continue reading

Turn around
Peter Griffin (character – Family Guy) often says that things grind his gears. I get the same, my reaction to the ridiculous things that are offered to me in conversation and media is that they wind me up, they make me angry. I could wake from a drunken sleep and rhyme you off a bunch… Continue reading

A difficult question with an likely unsatisfactory answer..
So, trying to be as diplomatic as possible, and not get myself into trouble, I ask Em a question. It occurred to me that sometimes I considered that women are often irrational, and sometimes slaves to their current emotions in a way that men tend not to be. Now that is a generalisation, yes, but Continue reading

Invisibility, a superpower?
I’m invisible, I’m convinced of it, but this is not a rant…I’m going to tell you about a phenomenon that just is… I went to the plumber’s merchants and was first in the door, nobody else was in the shop. I had a simple enquiry about a washing machine pipe and a coupling. My pal Continue reading

I’d eat the forbidden meat…
I’d eat a human… Weird thing to say that, but in some circumstances I believe it to be true. Peter Singer, a guy I am a big fan of, postulated the idea that animals are no different to people and people are no different to animals, we just happen to be smarter and more able Continue reading

What’s this ‘WE’ business?
When asked once, while speaking to a bunch of students, to make up a short inspiring poem, Muhammed Ali said “Me. We”. I think this is still the shortest known poem in the English language. What he meant is that I am part of who you are, and vice versa, but he was talking about Continue reading
