You can never be too serious about skincare.

I have a small hammer I use, to lightly chip away at the wall tiles to provide both exfoliation, a back scratcher, and acupuncture all in one.

I had this experience, unfortunately.

Things were going well. I was the CEO of a new company, I had a shiny new black suit and I had a team of very active workers - I honestly could not keep up with their pace! Suddenly, everything came crashing down as the acid wore off and I was wearing a bin bag in front of rats.

You mean there are other uses???

This is what I use. Stremio, Torrentio add-on for Torrent sources, and a bit of tinkering so I don’t see the paid options. Works pretty well for single episodes of some shows (for others I download the box set).

Edit: I mean it works for full shows, but when I really like a show enough I’ll have a hard drive copy.

When I was in university, one of the source materials required was at an absurd price. The lecturer made a point that it makes no sense to spend that much money on something we are unlikely to use beyond the module, so she encouraged us to use Z-Library and provided links. I really miss her, she was an absolutely fantastic lecturer.

Once I was going out with someone, and her step dad had hearing problems and slurred speech.
When I introduced myself to him, he misheard my name as ‘t-rex’ yet when he repeated it, I thought he was saying my name.

This went on for two years, until finally in conversation he mentioned that my name is t rex, which led to the hilarious realisation and correction.
Apparently he didn’t question it because he thought that’s a young person thing and left it at that haha. Fair enough.

I took speed twice in my life, and the first time I thought it would help with a presentation and I ended up researching about the dogs in the film The Duchess for three hours. My lecturer was happy with the full history of the dogs, though.

The second time I used it to clean my house. I have no interest in doing amphetamines again, and this was nearly a decade ago, however I will say my house has never looked as clean as those few hours. I was getting into the grooves with a toothbrush at one point. 3 bedroom house cleaned top to bottom in half a day.

Weed and food. The former isn’t a problem, the latter can be.

When I’m stressed I have to consciously be very aware of my eating. During lockdown I was spending a hundreds per month on just food.
Within two years after lockdown ending, I managed to lose 36KG. I try my best to keep a good weight, and I’m within acceptable ranges as per the BMI, however every once in a while I would have a bad day and eat an entire extra large pizza to myself for lunch.

Pardon my language, though I heard this in an interview with Jimmy Carr, and it rather highlights this for me quite well:
I’m paraphrasing, though it was something like “if you’ve seen five cunts before noon, you’re the cunt”.

Eggy in a basket. Many may know of it from V For Vendetta, and as much as I’d like to show off: I saw it on there first as well (all those years ago), but my gosh is it satisfying!

Butter one side of thick-sliced bread, use a small glass to cut a hole in the middle, plop some butter into a pan, put the un-buttered side down and crack an egg into the middle, and once it’s cooked enough flip it for a bit and then serve.
It takes practise to get the timing, of when to flip, right but once you do it’s just buttery and eggy and definitely comforts me well.

Seeing kids smile, hearing them laugh. Like, if I’m on the bus and I hear a baby laughing, with those early crackly chuckles they get, it just taps into something within me and brightens my mood. Very difficult to frown with such pure happiness around.

I genuinely prefer Ronan Keating’s version of Words

I have the Bee Gees original on vinyl, yet I always go back to Keating.

I tried to stop someone from taking her life about 14 and a half years ago, failed, and it still haunts me on some days. Been thinking of finding a counsellor who specifies in grief, it’s never too late. Got a few services in mind, just need to make the call.

Game of Thrones. Just couldn’t get into it.

I put DNF stickers on items around the house, to remind myself that not everything exists for sexual gratification.

If they have a lot of fibre from vegetables, and fruit, they could be constipated and thus a part-time pooper.

I went to see the Vimy memorial, many years ago, and it was delightful. People were so friendly, and very welcoming. I did not see a ‘rude Frenchman’ stereotype throughout the holiday. Very nice cheeses, though you have to be okay with the strength of the aroma of them lol.

There are a few cannabis related ones, though activity is here or there on one or two. UK420, THCTalk, ICMag, GrowCity, etc.
