“Alcoholic” is a bit too strong for me. I prefer the term “alcohol enthusiast”.

This morning: A cyclical online chat with my bank and then on the phone, passed from pillar to post...
Computer/banking issue that should take 10mins to resolve?
"In 2022 that equates to just over 4 hours, sir. Largely because of the complicated, dysfunctional & endlessly looping, cul-de-sac procedures that we've put in place to expedite the process & save you time"
What happened to the utopian future we were promised???
@BongoMcnulty @stavvers this, but the Slow Clap.

Like most people my age, I'm on Mastadon for the banter and on Twitter for the degradation.

I truly, deeply, from the depths of my being, feel that today should be Friday.
I am quite annoyed that it is not.

Weird fluffy advent, day 15
We still have no #snow, just frost and ice, so I am living vicariously through my fluffsters.

If Mary Shelley could write Frankenstein with Lord Byron swanning around in the background doing Lord Byron shit, you can definitively finish writing your work in progress. I believe in you!!
@alistaircoleman big hugs, well done for following through to the end, and good luck steering around gambling :)

Blueberry pays no bills. Lives rent free. Has no job. Gets food delivered directly to her mouth everyday. Sleeps in. Snores without caring how loud she is. Destroys nearly every gift ever given to her. Drools on literally everything just because she can. And she. Literally. Just. Sighed.

UK politics
Angela Eagle at #pmqs "This year the Tory party has given us five education secretaries, four chancellors, three prime ministers, two leadership coups and........... the partridge has sold the pear tree to pay for the gas bill"
@floppyplopper @stavvers he can already make batteries catch fire and get cheered on by his fanboys, can you imagine how pleased he will be if he can take out cities with a meltdown?

@doot @ben true story: I had a friend who a decade ago worked at Sears. She was trying to sell Sodastreams to customers that walked by. One woman asks her if it has ti be water. "No. Honestly, you could probably carbonate your own pee if you wanted to." The customer stopped, then picked up a Sodastream from the pile.
"My husband is going to learn a valuable lesson about taking my sodas."
@alistaircoleman possibly was, if you've "adopted" her wine already ;)
@alistaircoleman do you need a corkscrew and a straw?
