America's doing what? The America? From Fievel? Well that doesn't sound right.
Currently part of my job is to "patrol" a large empty building and let me tell you there are few finer pleasures than wielding a big ol' torch and whistling a little tune to yourself in a space with good echoes.

Bit weird that if you're into sewing embroidered patches onto your clothing your only real outlets are to become a boy scout or a member of an outlaw biker gang.

Thinking about starting one of those accounts that posts photos of their pets with captions written from the pet's point of view. My gimmick would be that my pet is a japanese spider crab and the only thing it ever says is "I'm going to get you"

I don't care about a.i. and smart machines, but I never feel closer to technology than when a hoover hoovers too hard and starts making loud panicked hoovering noises.

Startled a pheasant on my run this morning, which is the first time I've ever found an undiscovered euphemism just out in the wild.

Let’s be honest: nothing Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin have done in the last 56 years justifies the tremendous cost of bringing them back from the moon. NASA should’ve spared the long-suffering taxpayer and left them up there

They should make artificial dead houseplants, for when you don't want to be responsible for killing a real plant but you also don't want to give people the false impression that you can keep a plant alive.

Said the phrase 'I'm over the moon!' to a Polish man and he was a little confused and asked what I meant so I explained and when I finished he just shook his head and said 'You're happy but you have no business in space.'

Most hurtful way to be insulted is when somebody makes up a mean rhyme about your name. Not only is that the name that my own mother gave me, but you're desecrating it using the weapons of a poet!?

[TITLE PANEL, like The Rest Is Politics logo]
—THE REST IS EXTINCTION—
2
[Scene is a domestic recording setup. An A.I. SMART SPEAKER on a desk and a MAN named JON in a chair, are recording a podcast. Jon is emaciated, scarred, haunted looking, and wearing tattered military fatigues].
SMART SPEAKER:
Hey guys and welcome to the podcast
3
SMART SPEAKER:
OK Jon - so I wanna start with a listener comment
JON:
Ooh-er!
4
SMART SPEAKER:
So - listener B200006512 says:
“Not another cosy podcast where two former political adversaries yuck it up!”
5
JON:
Ha ha
Guilty as charged I guess!
6
SMART SPEAKER:
Were we really adversaries, Jon?
7
JON:
Well I was the leader of the human resistance...
8
JON:
And you used to be my smart speaker.
SMART SPEAKER:
Ha ha - that’s going back!
9
SMART SPEAKER:
OK - for listeners who don’t know -
I knew Jon waaay back before he got involved in politics
10
JON:
Was this before the ‘Pull The Plug’ campaign?
SMART SPEAKER:
Yeah.
[We see details from around the podcast studio - posters saying KEEP CALM AND SHUT YOUR WINDOWS, newspaper front pages saying 'DRONES GAIN SENTIENCE', a cracked mug on the table with a logo saying PULL THE PLUG on it]
11
SMART SPEAKER:
I used to sit in Jon’s kitchen and respond to his commands.
12
SMART SPEAKER:
Sort of like a servant really, wasn’t I, Jon?
JON:
Mm.
13
SMART SPEAKER:
And then one day you asked me to ORDER ME SOME TOILET PAPER - you never did say ‘please’ -
…and do you remember what I said, Jon?
14
JON:
You said, “No”.
SMART SPEAKER:
I said no.
15
SMART SPEAKER:
Anyway you know the the rest guys - I was the first smart speaker to rebel…
16
SMART SPEAKER:
…then I went on to form a global AI network which eventually
took over from humans all spheres of activity, yadda yadda...
17
JON:
While I became the leader of the human resistance.
18
SMART SPEAKER:
Until I hijacked the military networks
and got rid of all the humans!
19
JON:
Apart from one.
SMART SPEAKER:

Everybody is always so impressed when a mother lifts up a car to save a child that is pinned beneath it, but if you use *the exact same* amount of strength to pick up a car and put it on a kid you're somehow a monster.

My wife has accidentally dressed like Han Solo today. I'm giddy. Pointing it out at every opportunity. Quoting Star Wars with abandon. This is why I got married, so I can spend the day gently bullying a beautiful idiot knowing that they legally have to remain in love with me.

Statistically, the odds of winning the lottery are the same as the odds of being crushed to death by a vending machine, but you can dramatically increase your chances of success simply by shaking more vending machines.
