I was being a wee cunt once so my dad told me he wasn't going to buy me a new Scotland top and I cried like fuck and then he bought me a new Scotland top anyway because me crying like fuck was more annoying than me being a wee cunt.

Mate. The sound quality on the Disney on Ice bit of the Olympics is so shite.

I don't need reminding what it's like when my tinnitus is playing up.

I came out to my family today.
Obviously I was quite worried about my parents' reaction -especially my dad's- but it couldn't have gone better and they're being really supportive!
I just said "mum, dad, I like curling now - more than football", and they just smiled and mum said, "We already knew."

Apparently it's Superb Owl Sunday.
What's your favourite owl? I like a barn owl, personally. In the olden days they were often mistaken for ghosts because people were fucking idiots back in time. Just like now.
Owls are better than people is what I'm saying here.

Me and Bertie the cat are thinking about watching Sisu 2. Is it as much fun as the first one? I mean, he fucks literally hundreds of Nazis to absolute bits in the first one and I can't imagine how that can be topped from a fun and chuckles perspective.

The Olympic ice dancing is fine and everything, but could absolutely be improved. E.g., can you honestly tell me it wouldn't be more compelling if they got three darts each and there was a board at one end of the rink and they had to throw 101 or more during their performance or be eliminated?
