the determination of Men to stand directly in front of the card readers at the pub when there are other people trying to use them is truly unparalleled

The collapse of Noah Smith from 'interesting writer whose occasionally a bit random' into 'complete idiot and mentalist' is one of the most clear cut cases of twitter-poisoning I've seen
Noah Smith is paid in the high six-figures to write a blog read by Americans who believe themselves to be intelligent. Yet, he is both unable to read a sign and also for some reason chose to have a 90 minute layover for a flight that takes 90 minutes.

Nothing illustrates the arseholery of the IOC and the British Press more than the use of the image of a not-Trans woman to illustrate a story about trans women being banned (because there are no current trans women competing at this level)

In the 3 hours between my bag getting lost and relocated by BA I thought that all I would have for the weekend in Berlin is my @pelliclemag.com Bass shirt. So it could have been worse, but I'm glad the sparkler hat wasn't lost to the luggage bowels beneath Heathrow.

Nothing quite like it being pre 5am at T5 and stuck behind a man with 12,000 different camera cables, four types of moisturiser and a bottle of water in his hand luggage. I'm so full of hate.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you're not selling enough cask beer, then take lines off! It's better to pace through a small selection in great condition than to try and soldier on with a load of beers that have seen better days.

Note: This is not the exact quote — which is weird, since it's on video and the pope said it in English.
But the exact quote conveys roughly the same meaning, and goes arguably even harder by making an apparent reference to the detention of migrants with no criminal record.

Nice collection of thoughts on pub etiquette! If we could immediately action the ‘no tissues, wet wipes or crisp packets shoved in glasses’ point that would be lovely.
