Out for a few drinks with mates and my wife is away for the weekend. Checking the camera to see how the dog is doing and he's sat waiting at the door 💔 I'm coming home Ernie!

BO final boss at AEW Manchester last night ranting to me and my wife about how Tony Khan is "a stupid mark" and "You'd never see HHH doing this shit" when he was on stage. Hit the showers dude, go fanboy over the guy who's a mark for himself away from us.

Wife hurt in car crash, car written off, sertraline refused by doctors, dads dog being put to sleep, stressed to fuck and barely sleeping.

Please send pet pictures for serotonin boost I beg of you.

Wife got into a car accident when a (surprise, surprise) BMW went into the back of her on the motorway. Car we've not even had for a year that we love most likely written off. Thankfully she's (mostly) okay and it could have been much worse. Long story short, BMW drivers are dumb.

The funniest thing about seeing all these jobless flag shaggers painting roundabouts and whatnot is that they've called it "Operation Raise The Colours". Like they're taking part in a WWII secret mission or something.

"It’s genuinely one of the funniest games I’ve played in years! Characters are excellently written, and the sense of humour is spot on." 😍

My Grandma passed away yesterday, and it's really hit me hard. She was such a huge presence when I was growing up and had the biggest heart of anyone I've ever known. She was just the best, and I was so lucky to have her.

Bethesda's Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is here! It's definitely nicer to look at, but is it the better game?! Compared to the original?!?! Let Mike be the judge! Why Mike? Because they played the game, you silly! I don't know what else to tell ya, friend.

If this isn't available today on PlayStation, I'm ending it all.

Me, today: "The screen cracked when I opened my phone. This is not ideal."

Sat in A&E and hearing "the current waiting time is approximately 4 hours" makes me want to just take my chances tbh.
