Typing Not Necessary

It looks like the editing team over at TBS has been joined by someone with fat fingers.


That footnote is supposed to say IF NECESSARY.

Bun deal

Ah. Breakfast in America.

The very thought of it conjures up the sights, smells and sounds of sizzling bacon, strong coffee, eggs, fresh orange juice, pancakes, and pastries lightly dusted with sugar and spices.

Unfortunately, Jon C's similar dreams were brought to an abrupt halt the other day when he spotted this delicacy at one of his favourite early-morning haunts.


I'm guessing if he'd eaten one it would have been a tongue-in-cheek gesture.

Salary cap

Tom L knows that some Call Centres can be real sweatshops but this one, which he found on Reed's website, must take the biscuit.


It looks like over 100 people have already applied.

I'm sure Bob Cratchit will welcome these new workmates with open arms.

Losing face

Does anyone else, apart from myself and Jon C, keep seeing this advert on Facebook?


Now, if she really was from London, she'd be a Mum, not a Mom. And, at 200 miles away, do they really think that London is local to me? Or to Jon C who happens to be over 5,000 miles away?

But my main point is no, she doesn't look 25 years younger. In fact, the truth is she looks like a he.

An extremely poorly-Photoshopped he at that. Complete with bushy eyebrows and a dreadfully mis-shaped and incorrectly-sized nose that ends right on top of his lip.

Unless, God help them, that this is actually an example of their work.

But what's even more worrying on a personal level is that these ads are targeted.

Is that the best that Facebook's algorithms can come up with for me?

If so, I'll get me coat.

Or perhaps Facebook should.
