    We have family for the weekend. They arrive, say "Hello, how are you?"

    And then flop into chairs and silently doom-scroll for a who fucking hour

    And you have the nerve to be grumpy? Fuck you, that's my dreamworld.

    Yeah, but it was only an hour.

    By which time you can remove yourself to do the cooking.

    Good tip. Sadly the restaurant we went to wouldn't let me help out in the kitchen

    You could always embrace the irony of perusing the fern to moan about people ignoring you to spend time online.

    Went to the movies on Friday and this couple behind me just kept chatting all the way so I told them politely to shut the hell up, they stopped for a bit and then started again and some of the people more politely than me asked them to shut up, they stopped for a bit, started again, and then eventually one of the other people went and got a staff member to talk to them.

    This wasn't a young couple, it was the Bruce Springsteen movie on in the middle of the day, I was the youngest person there, these were people in their 60s or 70s. The only way they shut up was due to a teenage cinema worker threatening to kick them out. Entitled pieces of shit. I wish they'd just resorted to doom-scrolling.

    Given the context, it's hard to judge the quality of that one!

    Not sure about that, but "I do have quite a large ignorance" is clearly not as successful a pickup line as some might think it is...

    I think they did you a favour. That movie looks shit. I can’t believe a guy who looks nothing like Kerry Von Erich starred as Kerry Von Erich then starred as Bruce Springsteen despite looking nothing like Bruce Springsteen. His agent must be amazing.

    How interesting can a movie about him actually be ?
