Jon Blyth @disappointment.bsky.social · 16hI just mistook a larger account for a friend i used to know in London, and responded casually, with reference to “the pub” as though they knew I ran one. The sheer presumption! The not knowing my lane! The putting someone into the position where there’s no way to respond! I must slough my skin 2120
Jon Blyth @disappointment.bsky.social · 28/09/2026The fact that Ray Jay said “spook” and “slither” led me, over decades of not seeing his act, to imagine - and eventually remember! - him on his belly, squirming across the stage to the delight of an 1980s audience who couldn’t believe their eyes. So, something of a letdown youtu.be/fxWHy4f9W30?...youtu.beRoy "Spook!" Jay on the Bob Monkhouse Show, 1983YouTube video by dunebasher1971 280
Jon Blyth @disappointment.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I’m raging at the combination lock in the clinic of British Silent Hill. Those are purely mechanical locks. You can enter the numbers in any order I *tried* to do this and was greeted with a flashing red LED, that these locks don’t have. Immersion ruined. Get a combination lock consultant in, guys 3151

Jon Blyth @disappointment.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Initiated a round of THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME yesterday, where you share locations on WhatsApp and hunt each other around town. I went three stories up a glass building for a dramatic finale, and he went into a Costa. Sometimes i think im the only one taking THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME seriously 2381
Jon Blyth @disappointment.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Quite pleased that my mum, who lets a lot of radicalising shit wash over her, has decided to start donating to the RNLI without any input from me. Clutching at optimistic straws yes, but at least my desperate fists aren’t empty 1330

Jon Blyth @disappointment.bsky.social · 02/09/2026I love it when I see a dog and smile, because dogs have got dumb faces and I love them, and when I look up the owner is smiling at me smiling at their dog. Yeah man, you SHOULD be proud of your stupid hairy guy, he rules 1302
Jon Blyth @disappointment.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Does anyone remember the 16-bit Space Invaders style game which had level passwords that included TRIPTYCH and KEWPIE DOLL?

Jon Blyth @disappointment.bsky.social · 13/07/2026Finally I understand why Ron Swanson laughed and cried at that strawberry, in The Last Of Us. I just had the same reaction. I laughed because it’s a stupid tiny strawberry for babies. And I cried because I wanted a bigger strawberry 1201
Jon Blyth @disappointment.bsky.social · 11/07/2026I’m going to Asda today, with a barcode I’ve been WhatsApped by a customer. He says “the immigrants are using it to get steak for 50p”. He used it to buy 16 steaks and I’m really curious as to how it all works, what the barcode is actually for. Hate to hear this garbage from people I like 7112
