A Polish friend of mine learned the only 2 facts about swans any Brit knows, then confused them and, gloriously, *forgot they were about swans*, so one day she told me:

"Did you know that the Queen is the only person in England allowed to break your arm?"
Q Can a swan break your arm?

1) Yes

2) Also yes

Today I learned that ‘Kyrie’ in the song of the same name by Mr Mister is not a woman’s name, but a reference to the/his Lord. And the next word which I couldn’t ever work out is ‘eleison’ and means ‘have mercy’.

“Kyrie eleison down the road that I must travel.”

Welcome to that little earworm.

I hadn’t been feeling it here but I’ve been lured back with assurances from @rmuird.bsky.social that you’re all being hilarious and wonderful. Except you. She said you’re still a big cheesy bellend.

Every time I want to pick up where I left off watching something, I’ve forgotten what I was watching and what app it’s in. Even when that was 10 hours ago. Pretty sure my last drop of estrogen left my body around 6 months ago now.

It’s time for the annual outing of my favourite Christmas joke. You ready?

Darth "I know what you're getting for your Christmas"
Luke "How can you possibly know"
Darth "I have felt your presence"

It's an aural joke.
