How are we all dealing with the Sunday scaries?
Even though I went back to work on Friday, the post-Christmas scaries are hitting hard today.

Easily my most childish habit is replacing words in songs to make them about flatulence. For example, a Jess Glynn song you may have heard:
Darling, smell my farts
Oh, won’t you smell my farts?
’Cause I don’t wanna fart on my own anymore
Won’t you understand?
’Cause I don’t wanna fart alone
Darling, smell my farts
Oh, won’t you smell my farts?
’Cause I don’t wanna fart on my own anymore
Won’t you understand?
’Cause I don’t wanna fart alone

Do you have to have extra McDonald's or is a normal portion OK?
If I happen to spot a cock-up on signs I *will* document it, even if you fix it...

I tried to get a photo of just how sparkly the ice, frost and thin layer of snow on our roof looked in the moonlight.
(That's not the sunrise in the distance - those are the bright lights of Didcot Parkway.)

I'm alright with that.

I'm a fan of The Traitors but it feels like too soon after the Celebrity season for another.
When I realised it's starting tonight my reaction was "oh, I suppose I'll watch that then..."

May not be surreal, but a memorable one had transparent glass in the cubicle doors that presumably was meant to turn opaque when locked. Except it wasn't fully working and instead just dimmed...
the most surreal bathroom I’ve ever visited was definitely the World’s Biggest Public Restroom at the Meixin Foreigner Street theme park in Chongqing:

It’s a Weird World After All
It may not be Epcot, but Meixin Foreigner Street—featuring Christ the Redeemer’s smaller twin and the world’s largest public bathroom—hints at what China thinks of the rest of us.

New year, new me.
(My body has replaced about 90 trillion cells since this time last year so you can argue I'm fundamentally a different person than I was.)

We watched the new Knives Out film this evening. I'm not sure, but I think it might have had some kind of subtext outside of the whole murder mystery thing?

How about a new year's eve special round of "What's in my glass?"

The wife thinks it’s easier to follow my new year’s resolution because I’m dyslexic..
but we all know how difficult a no-crab diet can be!

I don't really do reflection or retrospection - the other half says it's one of my most notable characteristics. It makes it hard for me to relate to people's comments about "2025 was a great year" or "it was a challenge but I'm proud" etc.

This makes me sad. Of course, I've not watched a channel like this in 15+ years, but still...
I’ve spent this morning morbidly watching the MTV channels close down and the final songs played were:
MTV Music - Video Killed the Radio Star (Buggles)
Club MTV - Don’t Stop the Music (Rihanna)
MTV 90s - Goodbye (Spice Girls)
MTV 80s - Together in Electric Dreams (Oakey and Moroder)

We've just started watching Severance. I'm pretty sure Adam Scott must have given his barber a photo of me ca. 2010.

I settled on a new life goal recently: to try to have the longest year possible.
Start a leap year in somewhere like Samoa and finish it in somewhere like Hawaii, so I have a 377-day-long year.
Or vice versa I suppose, in a regular year, to have the shortest year possible.
