I think ~ Swinton is underrated.

10 hour flight and the seat next to me is empty. Only one rational thing to do now: use their screen to play The Muppet Christmas Carol 6 and a half times.

Are you 100% neurotypical? Or do you have a collection of pin badges?

โ€œHe couldโ€™ve run for president.โ€

Do you reckon someone in the future finally got a Time Machine working?

I would argue โ€œtwo thousand and fourโ€ is 4 words on its own.

Iโ€™ve been trying to find a way round it;

โ€œBitcoin until Starmerโ€ for example.

You get to go back in time and only say 3 words to your younger self.

What do you say?

Never forget that before women had divorce, they had poison.

Yeah I sent them a message.

I also mentioned it to the train manager, but weโ€™re at the final station in 2 minutes. He didnโ€™t seem too interested. Thanks @lner.co.uk

Quick update:
I politely called out his videos. Pointing out that he was in the quiet coach.

He got aggressive & threatening. Genuinely unsettling.

Heโ€™s calmed down, but put his feet on the chair next to mine, essentially blocking me into my window seatโ€ฆ

I shouldโ€™ve let him have the seatโ€ฆ

29.08.2025 09:45 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 3    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 2    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

The phone call consisted of him saying โ€œno noโ€ฆ Iโ€™m okayโ€ฆโ€

Then falling asleep on the phone.

How could I tell?
He started snoring then dropped his phone, still on the call.

This is wild. Who needs TV?

29.08.2025 08:46 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 4    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Oooh! He was just woken up by a phone call.

Heโ€™s getting a phone call; weโ€™re getting a lore dump!

The ticket inspector came along, and he immediately pretended to be asleepโ€ฆ

I now believe heโ€™s ACTUALLY asleep due to the commitment, the snoring and the fact heโ€™s left his phone on the table unlocked and with notifications on LOUD

Pure psychopath behaviourโ€ฆ

29.08.2025 08:39 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 3    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Okay, he immediately pulled out his phone and started watching Jesus based TikToks at full volume.

This is the quiet coachโ€ฆ but Iโ€™m definitely too british to say anything.

He might just be a dick.

Currently on a train from York to London:

There was someone in my seat who was adamant that I was wrong.

It took a group (A GROUP!) of people to explain how seat numbers work.

He reluctantly ended up moving to the seat opposite.

Is he crazy or high? Stay tuned to find out.

Fun Fact:
Ralph Ineson just became the first actor to appear on screen as a named character in both the Marvel Cinematic Universe (37 films) AND the Harry Potter series (8 films)

Galactus (The Fantastic Four: First Steps) and Amycus Carrow (Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows)

Happy Constitution Day to all my Norwegian friends.

I donโ€™t trust people who make an effort to look good when travelling.

Just accept it, and look like crap like the rest of us!

Iโ€™m going to start bulk buying and carrying round cheap earphones.
So I can give them to the poor, underprivileged people who are forced to make phone calls and watch videos at full volume in public.

Unrelated, anyone know where I can get custom printed earphones that say โ€œDONโ€™T BE A DICK!โ€

What do you mean โ€œsave your addressโ€? Doesnโ€™t everyone just message you to ask for your address every time I visit?
