Yeah, no-one has the thyme for that.

@neil oh heckerty heck; it’s been on my to-do list to change my blog to full-text RSS feeds. Now you’ve prompted me to actually go look up how to do that, and all it was is change one single word in the template. Everything techy is always harder than you think it’ll be… until it’s not.

@clare_hooley Ooh, on behalf of RSS users everywhere, thank you!

Dentist: Are you using a manual or electric toothbrush?

Well, I got an electric one as a gift, but the manual told me it has an app, so I haven't even charged it, for fear of it playing me ads for its own brand of toothpaste and mouth wash

Dentist: I'll just put manual then

@neil
Absolutely love this.
This is *so* "spot on".
I scream these things every day.

@neil "No, I don’t want to rate your product, let alone your choice of courier. You took my money, now sod off and leave me alone."

Well said.

@shelldozer Thank you!
