Finding myself struggling to not just type WHY THE FUCK DO YOU TALK LIKE THAT under most gaming videos I see these days. Like there's been a tone and cadence shift over the last couple of years that I can only guess is what you get when everyone buys prompters but no one knows how to read from them.

Used the phrase "I don't know, how long is a piece of string?" on a call with a bunch of American folks today and not one of them had ever heard of it.

So...that made look like I was being a total asshole.

Rob Ellis on Radio X 90s just introduced a band that is "So Scottish, listening to them too much will turn you ginger."

...Super Furry Animals.

I'm not even Welsh, and I'm incandescent with rage.

I'm not saying I spent the morning repurposing an old Raspberry Pi, monitor, and speaker into darts scoreboard display.

OK, I am saying that.

Shower started leaking into the lounge three months back. Today is the 15th of what will apparently be 20 total visits by a combination of the landlord, plumber, and builder to replace the shower cubicle.

Bedroom is a building site, there's no shower...but at least the rent went up £100 this month.

I'll be honest...I was roaring at this.

Items I ordered from Japan on Wednesday...delivered this morning by Royal Mail.

Items I ordered from the UK last Wednesday...undelivered by Royal Mail thus far, as they were "unable to attempt a delivery" (whatever that means) on Thursday, Saturday, and today.

Fun.

Just sold a big box of Ute no Prince-sama stuff that has been in the store for months.

Could be a reseller. Could be a streamer buying backdrop stuff. But I swear it gives me life that the woman who bought it could just be a huge Ute no Prince-sama fan and just got something awesome.

46 years ago on April 5, 1980, the band played their first show. Sandra-Lee Phipps took these photos that historic night in Athens at St. Mary’s Episcopal Church on Oconee Street.

"I want 2 x £25 items for £30."
"No. £40 is my best."
"OK. Can I add another £20 item and call it £50?"

It's old stock, so I agree. He agrees. I take the three items down and create a bundle listing. I send the link to the buyer.

"Actually, can I just get the 2 x £25 items for £40?"

Banned.

Half-asleep. Dude knocks on the door. "HELLO MATE I'M A LOCAL FISHMONGER AND BUTCHER IN THE AREA DOING DELIVERIES AND WONDERED IF YOU'D WANT A LOOK?"

What the actual fuck.

So... I'm reading a thread where UK folks are discussing registering as self-employed so they can open a business bank account, get business insurance, then use that insurance as proof to get a Costco card...to buy Pokémon cards there.

Actual mental illness.

Long way of saying the price has gone up from $7.99 to $10.58, Discord.

Maybe fuck off.

There’s nothing I don’t like about this. The shit joke on the wrong day. The dummy who can’t work it out. The way Grok says shit like ‘legends’ and ‘peak’ and ‘glow-up’ as if it’s just started dating my mum and is trying to get me onside.

Fuck all of it.

Oh. It's just more of the same. That'll be the killer flaw, then.

I wonder if the Evercade Nexus will have any online capabilities? Leaderboards? Profiles? Controllers that don’t suck?

I wonder what the killer flaw will be.

Amazes me how many YouTube videos there are that start with "We Need To Talk About..." and it turns out that we really, really fucking didn't.

Landlord's plumber that has cancelled SEVEN times finally arrived an hour late this morning to do what he said was a 15-minute job.

He's two hours in.

Talked down to for about 10 minutes by a junior developer. I sat there laughing and drinking coffee until he mentioned that the tool he's built is "perfectly in line with the company's core tenants."

Only ten past nine on Monday, and I think I'm done for the week.

I wrote some old nonsense about how I'm old and there are old games and I like them more than new ones. Not sure what the point is, but I liked doing the writing fing with the words and stuff.

Got a Japanese city walk video on in the background as I brainstorm, and I think I’ve found the best-named shop on the planet.

So I just played Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit 2 on PS2 for an hour. Been on the shelf for ages. Not played it before. Fun enough. Isn’t the greatest game in the world. But it might be the thing that kills off modern gaming for me.

I can feel a half-assed, sweary article coming on.

Fell down a YouTube hole of British people creating Pokémon TCG-related businesses.

It's WILD how people don't understand how a basic business works. Not a single thought about branding, income tax, shipping, supplies, fees, or time.

Just "BUY THING AND SELL THING FOR MOAR! SICK BIZNESS! AM CEO!"
