Given each person on the Mayflower will now have tens of millions of descendants, the more impressive thing, if you have any American white folks in your family tree at all, would be not having a Mayflower ancestor.

There are so many of these 10 year+ relationships that collapse as soon as they codify it in marriage.

This full and total timeline that some poor soul put together makes the entire thing a lot less head-scratching.

Autopilot will work when *all* vehicles have to have it, and only it, and the entire thing is coordinated centrally via satellite. So, in 30 years or so.

The only internal book I’m looking forward to is Kellyanne Conway’s.

The way the Brian Singer and Kevin Spacey situations seem to have vanished is pretty telling.

So glad that Anthony Hopkins is back.

Clearly she had... an odd period... in her late 20s.

This is the most wholesome post-two-bottles-of-wine story I’ve ever heard.

At the royal wedding viewing I was at (in a pub garden, with everyone drunk by noon on Pimms, obviously), there was a long discussion between half a dozen women in their 70s about how the bride would deal with the toilet in a 40foot train.

It’s all a long con, and one day he’ll floor you by correctly using effect as a verb.

All of the McDonald’s restaurants listed in the complaints are independent franchises, a detail that McDonald’s exploits to avoid taking responsibility for working conditions and wage exploitation.

So much of that area is like Manhattan, where it lurches from $10m apartments to dangerous-stabbing-territory in about 40 feet.

I once ate at McDonalds on Slough high street, and it was possibly one of the darkest moments of my life.

And yet Staines is nicer than Slough.

This profoundly alarmed me, that “Kelly” might be like “Sioban” and pronounced absolutely nothing like it’s spelt, and I’ve been making an idiot of myself my entire life.

I have an attic with a box of several thousand Beta, Arabian Nights and Antiquities cards.

My last attempt at eBay got as far as a dozen dual lands until it stripped my soul, as mass eBay listings do. 

Windsor is a short brisk walk from Slough (of The Office and “Come friendly bombs and fall on Slough!” fame)

Trump’s refusal to learn the semantic meaning of an exclamation point annoys me more than it should.
