I've just made the mistake of trying to get ChatGPT to summarise some data, from a fragmented table on the IPSOS website.

Genuine LOL
Just saw a 'tech' article that starts with 'ChatGPT is the Wikipedia of our times' and I can only assume they left the door open and a passing drunk blew in and landed near a keyboard.

I am shocked, SHOCKED I tell thee!
Well, this is quite a serious allegation. I do hope the BBC shows true impartiality and investigate whether or not some of its Board members are systemically biased. www.theguardian.com/media/2025/n...
BBC board member with Tory links ‘led charge’ in systemic bias claims, say insiders
Sources say Robbie Gibb amplified criticisms of Trump, Gaza and trans rights coverage, and had ‘a lot of oxygen in the room’

I keep making the mistake of going outside expecting November weather and I get confronted with what might be reasonably expected in September.
Just come in from mowing the grass as a sweaty mess, because it's currently 16deg C

For anyone who thought patriotism was the last refuge of a scoundrel - nope, it's religion.
Danny Kruger heading policy.
James Orr as key advisor.
Towler writing Farage has ‘found God’.
Reform UK is becoming an American style fundamentalist Christian party.
It’s a cynical use of faith.

Bloody love the Dreadnought Holiday account. Such great tales!
These things here are emergency wreck buoys, and if you're thinking the colour scheme looks somewhat like a circus big top, just wait until you hear about the clown show that inspired their introduction.

Lost this off my finishing mower about 10 days ago and I've found it not with a piece of machinery, or a tyre, but with my eyes!
Hurrah!

My most popular cartoon by a long chalk is also oddly niche, in that it mostly appeals to a generation who remember the song it refers to and enjoy the nostalgia for their youth. I can draw one for you if you like.

Last Thursday I found out my car is on a list.
It's on Halfords 'do not attempt' list for headlight bulb changing.
This is because VW put an angle drive system on the release for the headlight units. Now these vehicles are older, the plastic housing is brittle and the mechanism is furred up

Ah right, so Trump has just demolished a chunk of the White House without going through the normal processes that manage this sort of thing.
No, I'm surprised, shocked, astonished.
Dictators don't normally do this sort of thing, do they?
