Paracetamol and ibuprofen don't get the respect they deserve as painkillers because they're available to just easily pick up off the shelf
Single-serve pepper sachets are too small and single-serve salt sachets are too big.
In the same way cosmetic surgery doesn't make you look younger, it just makes you look like you've had cosmetic surgery, going to the gym doesn't make you strong. It just makes you look strong by pumping up certain muscles for show. It's all perfomative.
It's so obvious that Q is in the wrong place in the alphabet. It's got no right to be among common letters like N, O, P, R, S and T. Stick it at the end with the other freak letters.
Google hasn't had a good idea since tabs on their Chrome browser
What will the whining arseholes complain about next summer when Glastonbury has a fallow year?
I think almost all Brits will agree that Americans have taken our language and butchered several hundred different ways. Have do argue they're not on the correct side of the ladybird / ladybug debate though.
The UK's new age verification for adult sites will backfire spectacularly when the information leaks
Companies have it backwards on AI. AI can easily replace most of the board level jobs. It's the workers below who interact with the customers that add real value to the business.
Wimbledon needs to get rid of the all white bullshit. Have players wearing different colours makes it easier for people watching to know which is which.
Living by the coast is overrated. You're miles from anywhere interesting, it's constantly windy, and you get woken up by seagulls squawking like maniacs from about 4 am onwards every day.
Magic Realism is just literature for people who are too pretentious to admit they like reading fantasy and sci-fi.
In a world where you can charge £7.50 for a burger, it's hardly worth the risk of drug dealing.
Customer Service questionnaires are nearly always meaningless. "Would you recommend this insurance product to friends?" No! I would reconsider any friendship who did this to me to be under review.
No, I don't care about your theatrical wedding. You're weird. Wake up next to your partner, like any normal day, off you pop to the registry office and that's that. Nice meal and a few drinks after. Sorted. Use the money elsewhere and drop the ego.
Using Autotune isn't an "artistic choice". Your producer is using it because you can't sing in tune. Well unless you're going full robot, but that's been done to death, so it's a boring artistic choice.
Now that the first Oasis gigs have been played and excitement already gone down, I think we're one tour away from a Stone Roses "be thankful it happened" type goodbye from a stage somewhere being met with a mass shrug
There really is no better/convincing movie flashback than the graduation scene in Austin Powers in Goldmember. To find one actor to play a passable young cast member is a feat, let alone Austin, Dr Evil, Number 2, and Basil. The film deserves more credit for that.
An unwritten rule is headteachers love a recession. It's the only time we can recruit decent support staff.
McDonald's should let you order all of their normal burgers and give you the option to sub in the vegan patty so us non-meat-eaters can finally know what a Big Mac is like.
