My favourite podcast, doing a film in my favourite franchise, in my…country?! I’ve never bought a ticket faster!

Sadly I wouldn’t even confine it to younger age groups anymore. There are plenty of older men who should know better but seemingly will go along with anyone who hates the same people they do.

It didn’t take this app long to get to the ‘come join me on my OF’ stage, did it!

20 years since Crazy frog and yet he still haunts my nightmares.

I feel this

It might be the film I’ve seen more than any other film. Might be. It’s worth it though, I see more in it every time I watch it. Which you can’t say for all Jim Carrey films

Thought to myself that I really fancied watching The Mask. Then I switched on BBC1 and The Mask was just starting. It’s fate I tells ya!

Washcloths, bidets, washing chicken, circumcision, chemtrails, the correct way to wash dishes, that British food is not universally shit…the list goes on and on. I’m trying to do better in ‘25

Nosferatu was great
Put a monkey on it
Monster monster monster!

There’s a theory that sax goes up and down in a 30 year cycles. 50s, 80s, 2010’s - all sax heavy. It’ll be back

Who else tries to think of a letterboxd pun before the film even begins?

…..just me again.

Believing popular things doesn’t make them true

First film of the year!
Let’s hope this one doesn’t suck 🧛

You could just be a miserable bastard and achieve the same outcome 🤷‍♂️

I think it’s important to have the lamest January 1st possible, where you achieve absolutely nothing and are infused with an overwhelming sense of ennui and melancholy.

Then, the year can only get better.

I think this may be the first new years in memory I have no interest in staying up after 9pm

Regardless, I love this week. It makes me hopeful for the new year, as there’s almost no chance I could feel as useless/filled with cheese in 2025 as I do right now

Did we settle on ‘Gooch week’ in the end? I know some were reluctant in past post-Christmas periods, but I do think it sums it up well

Got the poker one

From Google search: “skin rash, itching, hives, swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat”. Long and short of it, you’re cutting dairy for your vegan friend but not for someone who can’t digest it

‘I did, what do you think made me an atheist?”

Christmas over. Now begins the rapid descent towards my 40th birthday. I’ll start screaming now, get it out of the way early

You’d seemingly put a dietary choice on a higher shelf than an inability to digest certain foods that could cause someone discomfort? I think this may be a point for reflection 🤷‍♂️

I bet Vargas is impossible to buy for. That guy doesn’t do anything!

I’m telling you guys, I’ve discovered the secret to great office Christmas parties. Two mocktails, a bit of free food, a few chats to make sure you were seen and then dark exit before 8. You can be in bed by 9 and the next day will be so much better. I promise you!

Was literally having this exact conversation with someone this morning and wondering how roadworks can go on for a decade

Maybe it’s the same one they bring in to King’s Cross sometimes. If it was a Harris Hawk it may have been (although maybe there’s lots of them that are hired out) 🦅

You’d think they’d be doctors’ receptionists

Even the most cursory glance of the story would show it wasn’t a joke. Where did you assume the joke part from?

Oh, well yeah that’s true too. I just meant to look at 😂
