Being a millennial is wild cos my friends from school with kids are either having their first baby or getting ready to send them to uni.

How come the NW and NE each get their own Great British Menu heats but both halves of the Midlands *and* East of England get lumped together πŸ˜’

The best one will always be the man doing a dramatic reconstruction of the moment he realised his orange juice packaging was smaller.

If I had a nickel for every time Franz Ferdinand was involved in the precursor events of a world war, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice

T. rex took 40 years to reach full size, study finds Tyrannosaurus rex may have taken far longer to grow up than scientists once thought. By analyzing growth rings in fossilized leg bones from 17 tyrannosaur specimens and using new statistical methods, ...

That's because they coddle them too much now. Back in my day, it only took 20 years for T-Rexes to fully mature, because they had discipline. Spare the rod, spoil the terrible tyrant lizard.

My cafetiere is broken. The prime suspect insists he has no idea what coffee even is and certainly wouldn't dream of jumping on the kitchen counter when nobody was looking

Probably time to boost this again. Closing date is the end of June, so you still have nearly four months.

Went from being the youngest people at Tubular Bells by about two decades to being offered a table in the pub by some children. Life comes at you fast.

How likely are we to be in a nuclear wasteland by Monday? I have a deadline, but if we're all gonna be atomised I might as well enjoy my Sunday instead.

In the story of Humpty Dumpty it is never said that he is an egg. However, it is never said that he is NOT an egg. This means that any character in ANY story could be an egg unless explicitly stated otherwise. Keep that in mind when you read a Jack Reacher novel

Today I learned there was once an EastEnders Easter Egg. Disappointingly, it only had chocolate beans inside and not divorce papers.

Also, I'm still baffled how the govt can claim to want more people in work but simultaneously remove accommodations to help people access work (PIP being the obvious one but I'm sure there are others)

Is that even legal? I thought auto-enrollment meant all workers are entitled to a pension.

Some of you like dogs, in which case you may appreciate that guide dogs of Team GB for the Paralympics get official photos

Re: my last repost, it's funny how the 'natural' childbirth lot never seem to advocate for natural heart attacks. Women should be educated and supported to choose what's best for them and their baby, not risk death due to ideological bullshit.

Further to my previous post, having found a workaround to find my most read authors on goodreads my top 5 female authors are:

Daphne du Maurier (13)
Enid Blyton* (12)
Judy Blume (11)
Margaret Atwood (10)
Sue Townsend (10)

* definitely the highest by a wide margin if including childhood reads
