I'm always careful never to exceed the stated dose of Paracetamol, but I also believe drinking coffee can keep me woke.

There are plenty of places where timbre, texture, poetic timing and so on, are quite nice to look upon as magic that we might be able to play with without having to be able to explain it.

There's a colonel of truth to this. With Left N Ant, it is the spelling that is wrong rather than the pronunciation, as anyone from Leominster, Leicester or Laugharne might occasionally agree.

If you eat the menu, how do you know what food to order afterwards? If it's an all you can eat menu, anything you attempt after that is a miscalculation.

If they wanted to do this, they would have to employ more people and introduce complicated new systems so that HMRC could record levels of everyone's basic pay and whether or not certain pay was untaxable "overtime" pay or not. More red tape.

Overtime isn't taxed at a special rate. Extra earnings count as extra income. It might push you up a tax bracket one month, only to level back down the next, so you only pay tax by the rate set by your annual income. What a knob.

Starting on an odd number, add 2 at each birthday. 27, 29, 31... You never have to celebrate a big birthday, and within a few years, you get so many compliments on how good you look for your age. "You don't look 75!"

Some say opinions are like arseholes - everyone's got one. Some people's opinions are more like their daily evacuations, and not just for how plentiful they are.

I waited until I was 49 before diagnosis. Does mine count as an example of a 1970s born ADHDer who didn't get the chance back in the day, or just another overdiagnosis of the present day?

Any answer to the question of Banksy's identity is either what we know about his work, or it would just be a name. I might suggest a possibility that he is Mr. Nesbitt of Harlow New Town, or possibly Mr. E.V. Lambert of Homeleigh, The Burrows, Oswestry.

Is this the place to mention that, probably uniquely, their poos are known as spraint? Maybe this should be a standard response to any collective noun.

I'm certainly not pretending anything of the sort. I'm sorry I made my comment in response to your reply, which wasn't where it belonged.

Let's take a step back. I think my reply was more in response to the original post. It looks like we probably don't disagree. The flavour of the original post doesn't leave room for what I imagine is probably a majority of men who are not sexist.

Bill Rose @ch-light-vessel.bsky.social · 06/03/2026
Of course. This posts states: straight men, not a subset of misogynistic straight men. There was nothing "telling" in my reply. I am opposed to sexism, racism, homophobia of any kind.
