A storage case and organiser for batteries is hands down the best purchase I've made this year. My life might not be wild, but at least it's marginally more satisfying.

Meanwhile, members of the Inter City Firm celebrate by whistling the theme from Are You Being Served.
Supporters of Deportivo Alavés, a La Liga team, have been known to celebrate most of their team's goals with a variation of "The Poznań" since at least 2014, in which they stand with their backs to the pitch, linking shoulders side-by-side and jumping on the spot while they sing the tune to the Pippi Longstocking TV series

The sense of terror is exacerbated by items that often spontaneously move about the house, and by the looming presence of the possessed doll.

Listening to @harvilla.bsky.social say "chad kroeger" so many times in the 60 songs ... nickelback episode that it starts to sound like a normal name when clearly it's not.

Reading the excellent Uncommon People by @msmirandasawyer.bsky.social, tickled by Bowie, Weller's Mam and J King defending Jarvis, with legal support from Bob Mortimer. Let's have more slightly rebellious, anti-establishment tomfoolery directed towards po-faced narcissists, please!

Until this week, it's been impossible to play the games of the 1993 Pioneer LaserActive without one of the vanishingly rare, disintegrating consoles. Here's the story of the guy who's been trying to fix that for years -- and all the hardware and software he had to build to make it possible.

"This is the first:" The 16 year odyssey of "time, money, wrong turns and frustration" it took to finally emulate the Pioneer LaserActive
In April 2009, a Sega fan decided to look into emulating the Mega LD, a quirky and little-known hybrid of Genesis and LaserDisc. This week he finished the job.

It's no wonder Giraffe isn't on the socials - just had the worst dining experience of my life in the Southbank restauranty. I didn't expect much, but this was atrocious, and the lack of quality control in the kitchen symptomatic of broader hygiene issues. Avoid like the plague.

What did Chuck Yeager do to upset Clarkson? Surely Yeager embodies "mor powah" more than anyone else in living memory? Clarkson went out of his way on a question about state capitals to make the point about Chuck

Jeremy Clarkson just said Chuck Yeager was "the worst person I've ever met" on celebrity who wants to be a millionaire and before he could expand on this, Fred Siereix made him feel his heart beating and oh my God now I just want to hear Clarkson's story why did you interrupt him Fred FML

An audience full of spectators laughing at a joke they've all heard over the commentary earpiece which the players aren't privy to. Like walking into a room and everyone stops talking.

Getting to know the spectators is as much a part of the world championship as the bank holiday finals. Big moustache guy, stripey t-shirt duo. Sometimes Iron Maiden drummer. All part of the magic.
