  1. Like wedding invitations that specify the colour that guests are to wear. Who cares if your nearest and dearest can't afford to buy something to match your wedding palette, guests are merely props in your carefully staged Instagram reel and extras in the Film of You.
  2. They cleared out the stuff they thought made the house cluttered; I'm sure they thought the stuff they left was tasteful and classy.
  3. Helmets don't prevent concussions; your brain still "rattles" around in your skull, like an onion in a mason jar.
  4. I was in the audience for Tom's West End debut in Billy Elliot (yes, I'm old). He radiated star quality at 12.
  5. The NYE show is, of course, recorded weeks in advance. Some years it is clearly recorded over several dates, with completely separate groups of guests on the couch, then pieced together for airing as if it happened all at once. It's not a matter of "guests who had nothing better to do", they're scheduled by their publicists like any other date.
  6. Robbie is always a great guest on Graham's show. Search for him telling the story about his daughter's birth, I believe to Emma Thompson.
  7. There's a lid for every pot/ass for every saddle.
  8. So just sign in with your AppleID, that's what I did.
  9. I'm still pretty restricted while recovering from an accident, so I declined an invite to a small home NYE gathering; going to friends' home for Christmas dinner really knocked me out so I don't want a repeat of that. Other friends just dropped off a huge plate of a turkey dinner. Too many brussels sprouts, not enough gravy. I kid - it was delicious. Although I did scrape the sprouts straight in the compost. I have enough left for another dinner tomorrow. I expect to be asleep any minute now.
  10. An easy rule - "self" is reflexive, it reflects back on something earlier in the sentence. "I did it myself", "He went himself". If it is the first time the character is appearing in the sentence, they can't be a "self".
  11. It's Middle Management Myself; if i have more syllables, I must be more important.
  12. All Broadway companies are hit with sickness now, a "chest flu". Because Gypsy just opened a few days ago, they haven't rehearsed the standbys and understudies, so the company is using today to do that in order to put the show on for the rest of the holiday week.
  13. They're neither intimate nor private if you're sharing them, Twitney.
  14. Correct. Putting yourself last is a matter of manners, not grammar.
  15. Nothing says "Let's give thanks for all of our blessings" like getting up at the crack of stupid o'clock the next day to buy more stuff.
  16. I hate when people say "Oh, by the time you get to that point, you don't even care who is looking at your business." That's like saying "By the time you've been shot and stabbed, you don't care if you get kicked in the head." Getting to a point where you are so bereft of privacy and dignity that you just don't give a damn anymore who is looking at your genitals? Don't try to convince me that is acceptable or even tolerable.
  17. The dish does not traditionally include nuts, so the whole point of the one they were served was the set up for the nuts joke.
  18. But the server said he didn't like it because he doesn't like nuts. Cue the testicle jokes.

    I'm always curious when people make comments like this about "celebrities". Unless you know them personally, how do you come to this conclusion? (no, a quick encounter at a Meet and Greet event does not give you insight into anyone's true personality).
  20. Sadly, there are probably many songs with that refrain.
  21. All public buses in London are accessible, with ramps and dedicated spaces where a wheelchair or scooter user parks and sits. There are countless public bus routes that are great for site seeing. They chose, for the sake of drama, to take private tour buses, then complain how hard it was to climb the stairs to the top. She could have stayed on the first level and still seen the sites, just like they all did when it started raining.
  22. My Spotify Wrapped commented on my "thirst for knowledge" because I listened to so many minutes of podcasts. It didn't comment that they were all Sister Wives Professor, Everybody's Business But Mine, Surviving Sister Wives, Psych Legal Podcast, Sister Wives: Love Should be Multiplied Not Divided... Not so much "knowledge"
  23. Now take a look at the dust that has collected ....
