Trivia. The principle behind the ‘tonewheels’ that generate the sounds in Hammond Organs is exactly the same principle as used by contactless wheel speed sensors in car antilock brake systems. I knew all about those but didn’t know very much about Hammond organs until just now. Blimey!

I’ve just recently gone on the Atkins diet. The Gemma Atkins diet to be precise. I’ve only been on it a week and I’ve already lost 60 IQ points.

Some of these cold case criminal dramas make you wonder just how accurate people’s recollection from decades ago can be. You’d need to refer back to documents of the time, e.g. your teenage diaries. COP: “WHERE WERE YOU ON THE NIGHT OF MAY 14TH 1985?” Me: *Checks diary* in my room wanking.

The great thing about Copy/Paste is you can turn one mistake in a spreadsheet into many mistakes in a spreadsheet with complete aplomb.

I have no problem with positive discrimination hiring but it seems suspicious that *every* branch of CEX seems to employ a teenie elfin doll-like pierced tattooed goth princess as this causes massive queues while the the lumpen incel greebo manager falls over themselves to handsy-help her.

To add to the list of ‘useless social media platitudes’, ‘Thorts and Praers’ are already identified as having no practical value but ‘Aww, bless’ seems to also yield no +1d4 to attack rolls OR saving throws. Complete waste of time.

I don’t regularly watch horror films but I have seen enough to know when a jump scare is being queued up. Unfortunately this leads my exquisitely pattern-recognition attuned brain to sound pre-emptive alarm bells when I go into the last vacant stall in a toilet block and find the bog lid down.

I aim for quality when I reply to posts, e.g. if I riff off a joke you’ve made I do hope it’s inventive, creative and hopefully builds and expands on the joke. I’ve seen (and been the victim of) too many ‘repeat the same joke back to you in slightly different words’ replies on FB. Not adding value.

I don’t really wish to be arrested on suspicion of a major crime but it would be interesting to see how the fuzz would try to psychologically profile me just based on my online posts. I’d be like ‘Ooh do me next!’ like when someone at a party claims to be a psychic, but then say ‘Ha! No.’ afterwards
