FAI (Football Association of Ireland) were fined €10,000 for booing “God Save the King” at Aviva Stadium. In Dublin. Maybe fine the FA (England’s football association) for playing it in the first place and don’t play “God Save the King” in Ireland ever again.

​These snasTV lessons in conversation using characters from Ros na Rún look so hilarious. I don’t even know all the characters yet and still I can tell some genius put this together. “How to use wisecracks and sarcasm in your speaking” with Laoise, who is so terrifyingly mean I don’t even know what she’s saying and I’m scared of her. “How to start arguments with people” featuring Taigh; who else? “How to make excuses” with Catriona; “How to flirt” with Crystal.

Lowest level is B2 so I will have to work harder.

Look at the drivers waving and honking and the cars all waving and honking back. Dude bought “ten head” of “spanking new buses.” Calling them “these lovely new buses.” Look at the driver; she is over the moon at getting to drive these “powerful and comfortable” buses. Four million dollars worth of buses, and each one takes €500 of diesel fuel to get to Dublin and back.

Finally understanding what was on the postcard has been the most meaningful and hilarious experiences of my life.

My nephew loves to play Friday Night Funkin’, which is a sad, keyboard -based music rhythm game that’s like if you played DDR with two fingers. I should take him to play this!

you can text this smell

but I didn’t mean I wanted to stay here all night

Women behind me on the plane
W1: my mom’s profile picture is a pig
W2: my mom’s not allowed on social media bc she broke her back in a crash on the Pennsylvania turnpike and she has a lawsuit pending and they’re trying to prove she’s not disabled so she can’t be on there. She uses her boyfriend’s account and she ragged me for like four days about my wedding saying I ruined it for her bc my photographer didn’t take enough pictures of her


Same women
W1: can you please close your apps? You’re making me anxious. That’s why your phone is so slow
W2: I like them open. I like to go back to them without having to look
W1: ok that makes sense. I do that with browser tabs. I have like 12 open
W3: you have 12? I have 457
W1: 457? Are you serious? Why?
W3: I never close them. Those are my emotional support browser tabs


And again
W3: are we landing? I’m closing my eyes
W2: it’ll be ok
::turbulence::
W3: was that the ground?
W2: nope. Just air
::hard bounce landing::
W2: that was the ground
W3: that was rough. Rough

Yeah so I did read Spare and it was pretty interesting so see him get so close to self-awareness. But at the part when he complains about this essay by Hilary Mantel, I felt crushed because if anybody was on his side, she was.
