Even worse when a boss claims to be ‘super excited’ about something happening in the business that isn’t remotely exciting.

Amy Irons.

Seriously what is the appeal with her beyond being quite good looking? She's hopeless presenting the football, annoying on the radio and The Adventure Show (which used to be just about my favourite show on TV) is almost unwatchable since she took over presenting. She's so awkward and unnatural and every conversation is cringeworthy in how seemingly scripted and uneasy it is.

4DX. Went to the cinema at the weekend as had time to kill before taxi-ing the family. Went to see Creed 3, which was fairly decent. Went with the show time that worked best, which was 4DX.

I thought 4DX was going to be that nonsense screen where the film was shown on 3 walls. It wasn’t and was the one where the chairs move like a rollercoaster. Why? What does it really add? Firstly the movements are far too violent, was getting thrown about during the trailers. I can understand using the seats for the boxing scenes, but they were just using them for the sake of it to justify 4DX prices. Two characters in a car going from A to B and having a conversation. Do I really need to chair to vibrate when the engine is turned on etc.

My missus got me a pair of slippers and they are 11/12, I mean, if they fit a size 12 then surely they should just be a size 12? Where does the 11 come into it? Makes no sense whatsoever. Must be so they only need to make one size for every two shoe sizes but then surely they would just fall off the size 11's feet as they'd be too big?

The host of the quiz show lingo who talks over half of the contestants time to think and give their next word/answer. I couldn't cope with it if I were on!

"Oh, close, but it's not North. It starts with N obviously, and it ends with a h, and you've got the t, but it's in the wrong place..."

Quite enjoyed this and was nodding in agreement at first. However… and I’m not a slipper-wearer so no expert.. but:

Is the idea of slippers not that they’re more loose-fitting, and just slip off and on, therefore being less strict in their sizes relative to shoes?

As a slipper wearer if I get my shoe size they are unwearable after a few weeks. I always buy a size smaller so they stretch to the right size. Leaving them for the dog to chew is the reason they don't last very long....

Crap graffiti.

I know 'street art blah blah blah' but about 90% of the stuff in Edinburgh is just crap. Particular mention for 'Alkee' who has been tagging anything stationary for about a decade now and if anything is getting worse as time goes on rather than showing any improvement.

I took the S-Bahn into work yesterday and was thinking the same. I've never been a fan of graffiti but most of it now is just ****ty looking tags. They should rebuild the wall here because some of the graffiti on it was at least imaginative.

Consider me triggered. That, and the same people describing themselves as "mummy" or "daddy" in polite society. To a dug 😆🤯

I was asked to feed someone's cats for a couple of days and the day before my duties started the keys were posted through my door with a very detailed letter from the cats telling me where their "hoomans" left everything, what time they needed their fur cuddles and treats and how excited they were that I was their new hooman friend who was looking after them.

A few years back I was invited to a barbecue but couldn't go. Found out from other folk afterwards that it was a birthday party for a cat.

[Pretty Boy]

I make my cat a cat friendly birthday cake every year to mark the day we adopted him. I put a candle in it and get him a present as well. He had a horrendous life before we got him so he's spoiled. Sleeps on our bed, treats on demand, the aforementioned birthday cake etc etc.. He's part of the family so gets treated as such even if he doesn't understand it.

I stop short of buying my wife a others day card for him right enough.

People who use self service at supermarkets, put the basket down then unload it to the other side then put it in to bags, why not just put the bag up first and pack your food in that order.

Lingo on BBC...

Try a 4 letter word or 5 letter word rather than just plurals of 3 and 4 letter words.

Pish.

Folk writing how they talk. I’ve noticed an increase in the likes of tae instead of to. Folk can speak however they like but it takes more effort to write like you talk.

Another one, the font in children’s books. It’s really difficult to see the text of the story when the story is at night. Why continue to use black text on a dark blue page. Makes it a challenge to read the page when your doing bedtime stories and you’ve got the little light on instead of the big one.

The menopause - I've definitely been put on pause.

To those whose other halves have not reached this point yet - most important rule: don't make jokes about the menopause - you literally do not want to go down that rabbit hole

I always used to wonder why my grandad never used to talk much - I now understand

I totally respect my Wife and her challenges, agreed its not easy for the Men but I read up on it and try to understand how difficult it is for my Wife. I give her all the time and respect she needs and deserves

Wished she would do the same when I go down with Man Flu 😵🫣
