I want to buy an ice cream truck and change it so that in winter I can drive around selling coffee, tea, hot chocolote, and hot pastries.

Get a good night's sleep? In this economy?!

I'm too poor for that.

This hot water bottle for my feet might be the best thing I’ve EVER bought.

Tonight I fixed a bug that I'd been stuck with for over a week, so to celebrate I'm drinking my rum out of a glass, like a proper grown up.

I'm a solid 10, but only in Binary.

Is it too late to fix my Spotify Wrapped so I don't look like a lunatic with the consistency of sloppy gravy?

There is not a single movie that wouldn't be improved by adding Muppets to it.

Realised I could hook up my Mac to my telly, so did what any grown man would do:

Played Football Manager on the big screen.

Just saw a post about Americans being upset that wandering the streets with glasses of wine and chatting with friends is illegal there, and I think I may now have my weekend plan sorted in good old Britain.

Name two words that rhyme but should never go together.

I’ll start: Fun run.

I believe every man who doesn’t have a beard would look better with a beard.

How many rodeos is the right number of rodeos for me to know what I'm doing?

Because I'm way past my first rodeo and still haven't got a clue.

I want a show of Nick and Joe travelling the country in an old school mini.

Don’t even care what they’re doing on the trip.

Joe could eat Nick and STILL manage three Weetabix.

Imagine living in the age when the invention of sliced bread was the best thing EVER.

Simpler times. Good times.

Just received a welcome email from my own company that I didn't know was being sent out today, and I can't stop smiling about it!

@whingewhingewine.co.uk is bloody good at this.

It’s not everyday you launch the business and application that you’ve had in your head for a decade.

Time for wine, I think.

Just discovered the phrase Schroedinger's Douchebag, and I need to add this to my vocabulary.

Pretty sure soon I'll do my grocery shopping and not be able to eat anything until I've downloaded an app for it.

"What a nice orange! Better register on the Orinj app and give them all my data so I can enjoy it fully and receive orange-related news, alerts and updates for the rest of my life."

Kids today have grown up without DVD director commentary, and boy does that show.

Just heard someone from OK Go say “There’s no idea until you’ve played.”

I think I’ve found a new motto.

Healthcare professionals: if you’re dealing with a child and their divorced parents, please don’t automatically just talk to the mum and exclude the dad. Especially after you’re told that custody and parental responsibility is entirely shared 50/50.

Thankyouplease

For someone who doesn't believe in reincarnation, I spend far too much time happily planning how much better I'm going to do it when I get my second go at being in my 20s.
