I was recently doing a crossword in the pub when I got stuck, so I asked my notoriously generous Scottish friend: “I’m stuck on this one: ‘Trapped on a desert island, eight letters, starting with M?’”
She responded: “Come on, silly, it’s Marooned!”. Me being me, I promptly clapped back: “Oh, go on then – I’ll have a creamy pint of Guinness*, please!”.
* Other alcoholic drinks are, of course, available.
Enjoyed this quote from Lil Wayne, courtesy of Matt Mullenweg, this morning:
I believe that, to be the best, you have to smell like the best, dress like the best, act like the best. When you throw your trash in the garbage can, it has to be better than anybody else who ever threw their trash in the garbage can.
Found this blog post from the human known as “blinry” recently (side note: I’d love to know where the nickname came from!) and found it fascinating. Isn’t the ingenuity of some people’s side projects marvellous?
