Shut up you haters, Altman knows what he is talking about
Picture of an Acorn Electron, the budget version of the 1980s BBC computer. BTW, Atman doesn't know what he is talking about; keep on hating, folks!

Yes! Name and shame!
Emperor Palatine from Star Wars sitting in his big chair on the Death Star saying, "Let the hate flow through you." I know it's an obvious choice, but sometimes obvious is good.

It's becoming apparent that today is an exceptionally good day for screaming into the void
A child wearing a Minnie Mouse jumper is partially covering her eyes whilst screaming. IIRC she was messing about at the time, but this photo is at least 12 years old, and the memory plays tricks on one

I thought the coach was supposed to turn into a pumpkin; not the princess
Picture of HM the K sat next to the festively pumpkin-coloured leader of the free world in a horse drawn coach (horses sadly not in picture). * HM the K = His Majesty the King

I'd say if it ain't broke, don't fix it, but PDF is such a godawful hodge podge of formats, maybe this is what's needed to move everyone to something decent

"I may be bald, but I've got great teeth"

Picture from Sky News shows bald scientist holding clumps of hair which is unlikely to be his. Headline reads "Toothpaste made with hair naturally repairs tooth enamel, scientists discover"

Highlander remake idea:

All immortals are female this time
Promotional picture from the 2016 Ghostbusters reboot starring Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones. There was a lot of fuss about them not being men, but it's a funny film, well worthy of a sequel

Highlander remake idea:
The prize is being haunted by all the headless eternals for eternity
Screen capture from Highlander showing the Shpanish Egyptian who gave Shcotland its accent (played by Sean Connery) explaining the method of de-immortalising Connor MacLeod (Christopher Lambert) by holding a sword to his neck.

It's arrived! As recommended by 16 year old @robmanuel.bsky.social
I'll see if my teenagers are interested, but since they're both girls they prefer books about relationships rather than the important things in life; in this case: radioactive spiders
A copy of John Wyndham's "Web"; the cover shows somebody in weird specs a distance behind a large skull which is being traversed by spiders

Me to the local road users whilst driving my rental at least 10kph slower than the speed limit
Star wars return of the jedi picture showing the emperor seated saying "let the hate flow through you" I'm not driving slowly to annoy anyone, I just don't know the road and I don't trust this car cos it's (a) a bit crap due to budget restraints and (b) been thrashed by countless other tourists

Photograph shows the shattered remains of a Boden french coffee press. An inauspicious start to the weekend. Farewell faithful morning friend. RIP You will be missed

Morning hair.
#Bibi #ShihTzu
Bibi the Shih Tzu looking slightly disgruntled with a bad case of morning hair as the tuft on top is reminiscent of a cockatiel. She is currently wondering why I am typing this rather than organising her breakfast.

Just got it: the animals are curious; not their poses
Screen capture of the IT Crowd. IT guys at a dinner party trying to look normal (striking extremely curious poses)

Saw swans whilst walking which randomly reminded me of the Queen Mamagotchi game from #viz

Screenshot of the Queen Mamagotchi flash game from Viz where you needed to keep her topped up with gin and swan, and occasionally perform a Heimlich manoeuvre or replace a hip. I did not waste any work hours playing this game

It's gone downhill since Saul Enderby took over #SmileysPizza
Photo of Smiley's Pizza in Hannover. It's next to the petrol station we often use on our way from the UK to Poland or back, and I've thought of creating a Smiley's People related tweet every time I look at it.
