Once fell over someone else's toddler in a shopping centre who laughed about it and proceeded to run off and trip up someone else and his mum was running around after him going JESUS CHRIST JEREMY YOU LITTLE BASTARD and I think about that a lot
Please quote this with stories of your minor interactions with non-celebrities, e.g. “I once accidentally bumped into a man in the Wellingborough branch of Holland & Barrett”

Twas the night before Christmas, and throughout the land
The sleeping arrangements were carefully planned
Down in the kitchen, a picturesque scene
A mattress, a pillow, a washing machine

In 2023 I became obsessed with videos of dads in cargo shortswaiting in parking lots during Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. So when she came to town, I grabbed a camera and headed down to talk to them. I thought it'd be funny. It turned out to be something else entirely.

My beloved niece asked me to bake her brownies for her birthday. I couldn’t deliver them to her on time because of my operation but I keep my promises!

At lunch today I heard my friend’s father lament that he misses going into the garden and picking fresh mint for her to have her favourite herbal tea, now that she has moved out (bought her own home!). Is this what having a parent is like? Sounds amazing

It gets lost in all of this nonsense every time, but it is worth pointing out that it's not illegal to use any toilet you like. Toilets aren't legally restricted places and never have been, for very obvious reasons. This whole thing is based on an absurd fiction about who can and can't go where.
It's not illegal to use the right toilets and no one should adhere to Mary-Ann Stephenson's headmistressly call to "follow rules" that serve no good purpose, breach the UK's human rights obligations, will be bad for all women, and debase trans dignity. Make her appoint her sodding toilet police.

Guess who just learnt the hard way not to casually use the phrase “I’m pooped” when you work with a very international crowd?

The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

The soundproofing in my block of flats between units is very good (yay) but if you’re standing in the communal corridors you can hear everything (totally fine). I overheard my neighbour enthusiastically exclaim today “I am a VERY good looking man!”

Although I am still surprised by the nurse who strongly argued for the blue highlighter, which is clearly in no way the best colour

When I was in the post surgery recovery room the (angelic) nurses were were joking around with each other about “stealing” their favourite highlighter pen and how they all have their favourite colours etc but they never get it, so obvs this had to be done.

Oh FUCK, Gravy Wars resume in two weeks.
My MIL have an ongoing war of attrition and manipulation over whose recipes get used for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
One year I made two kinds of gravy, hers and mine, after she raised hell.
Then she ate mine. No one ate hers. Even the Kid has Opinions.
