Paulo eats all he can eat [short story] โ€œI feel like Iโ€™m foie gras,โ€ Paul said as he massaged another Spanish sausage down his gullet.

I may have been on holiday but I've kept the creative juices flowing. Here's a definitely not autobiographical short story about Paulo eating all he can eat. meyoucoffee.com/2025/10/28/p... #flashfiction #creativewriting #writers #writing

Grim!

This is the opposite of my mum who, throughout the late 80s and 90s, used to cook liver & bacon for around 45 minutes.

Turned me off it for about 20 years.

Sorry I can't come to your TEAMS meeting, I'm downloading Battlefield 6.

Sony should look at a way of helping gamers transition away from Xbox (given MS's attitude to gaming of late).

The one thing keeping me loyal was Xbox being where my friends were. Now that crossplay is prevalent that's a non-issue.

Now the sticking point is my library of games tied to Xbox.

Mikeโ€™s open night Mike peered out from the side of the stage, sweat forming on his brow. There were more people than he expected, and he was sure he recognised three or four familiar faces.

This story is a bit naughty. I think I saw one of the rabbis blush.

This happened every week. And you knew it was going to happen. You could see it coming a mile off. Yet you still laughed. Every week. That's top tier comedy performing if you ask me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aY2r...

I'm guessing that's not because you've been so excited to watch the reflections and movement of the STUNNING LIQUID GLASS by continuously wiggling your phone around?

I've spent some time with it across devices now and Apple's "Liquid Glass" iOS is definitely messy and overly complicated.

It is design for people that don't like art and design.

No I appreciate that, I was genuinely curious seeing as that feature has been available for other releases.

Are we getting a "Switch 2 Edition upgrade" for All-stars Galaxy (so that I don't have to buy it again)?

Saw Inside No. 9 live on stage last night and I don't mind telling you, it made me feel quite emotional. After a rough time lately that was the perfect tonic. Wonderful to see this live!

If you get a chance to see it, I highly recommend it.

I just turned the football on and someone was talking over some training footage. I thought it was Harry Redknapp.

It was Jamie.

The transformation is almost complete.

In addition to this I want to point out how unhelpful the typically British way of measuring bodyweight is. STONES.

A change of 2 stones doesn't look much on paper but that's around 13 bags of flour. That's huge!

Still a way to go, but I think this is the first time in 20 years that I've not been clinically "obese". I guess the lettuce and Weetabix (not always together, that would be weird) is working.

Contractor: so how'd you want the tits? Perky? Big ole cans?

Iowa state legislature: the what

Contractor: me and the boys was thinking perky

Iowa state legislature: this is for the war dead?

Contractor: okay writin' that down as perky
