Which station is this, where you can see the platform of the next station down the tunnel?

Seems as good a time as any to wheel this one out again...

I will be taking to the stage in April to torch the remains of my career in a righteous bonfire of the inanities...

Takes one touch to check someone's Bio on here.

Not sure why your skin or mentioning Palestinians is at all relevant, but I'm open to being better informed...

Metro had this horseshit on the front page, and on page 2 asked if it will happen before new northern rail, and ok, yeah, but also fuuuuuuuuuuuck off!

How fucking dumb are you?

Randomly turned up in my pub this morning...

And yet more.

Every year I question why I have made such a rod for my own back.

On the bright side, you can get away with giving crap gifts if the wrapping is amazing...
December 27, 2025 at 1:37 PM
Some selections from previous years, many of which are far more ridiculously over the top, with dense pleating, multiple inserts, and overlapping folds in different directions. Also more gifts per season. A single gift can take over two hours to wrap in the most extreme cases.
December 27, 2025 at 1:37 PM
Kept the gift wrapping relatively simple this year.

5 gifts done in 3 hours.

I hate myself every year by the time I'm finished...

Either this is talking about your Uber driver or... Uh...

Ok.

I'm not saying this sort of thing is up my alley, but...

I don't make these for money, but if you want something like them, have money and don't mind waiting a long time, I could be persuaded...

Don't just make stuff, make absolute, glorious nonsense!

AI could never.
