I take no joy in it, but i've killed (so far) 3 very annoying wasps in the garden. I've hung them in a cobweb, as a meal for the spider and a warning to the others.

Is it even a Jean-Claude Van Damme film if he doesn't do at least 2 out of 3 of: gratuitous shot of his bum, shot of him doing the splits, and/or him playing 2 separate characters.

If you combine Schrödinger's Cat, Occam's Razor, and Murphy's Law, then any box that can contain a cat most probably will contain a cat.

I just had a strange moment of realisation. I said something to myself and referred to myself as 'Mig'. Which I realised I do always do. But not 'Michael'.
I am not Michael, I am Mig.

This is a question that's irked me for years and I've only just been bothered to work out. How many pairings would it take for someone from every country* to marry someone from every other country:
(193 x 192) / 2 = 18, 528 couples, by my calculation.
*in this case, every UN-recognised country
(193 x 192) / 2 = 18, 528 couples, by my calculation.
*in this case, every UN-recognised country

We have cordial as a nightstand treat instead of water on weekends. Running very low and my wife asked, as I was taking them upstairs, if there was enough. "Yes, there's enough, my love." I said. "For me" I continued quietly, out of earshot, with an evil look to no one.

Taking the volume of Windermere to be 314.3 × 10^9 litres (and the volume of the average Sports Direct mug to be 0.57 litres) it would take 551 × 10^9 (551 billion) mugs to fully empty Windermere. Going outside for a bit now.

Part of me feels that the big asteroid probably going to not hit Earth is a bit of a shame. If we knew in time where it was going to hit, could evacuate people from the area, and it wasn't going to affect the planet too much, it would be amazing to film.

I'm out with my wife Ceri and we were chatting about grandparents and their jobs. She asked where my Granddad Harry worked. I said OTIS but she misheard and said "Hooters?!"

For some reason, I felt like watching a film of people killing nazis. I just watched Inglorious Basterds. I like Inglorious Basterds.

I like scary stories set at the coast or at sea. I just read 'The Shadow Over Innsmouth' by H.P. Lovecraft and really liked it.

Things I saw in America:
1. On the same bus ride, a New Yorker say "Forgeddabout it!" and a woman say "You go, girlfriend" unironically.
2. A larger gentleman complaining about the lack of space on Star Tours.
