I love my mum, but my idea of a good night out is not the local pub with everyone in attendance 50+. Nor is my dad's idea of watching a scary movie alone appealing.

But by God, do ScotRail and the buses make sure you can't get home once everywhere decent actually gets going. No no, all services have to close before midnight. Whoever heard of a 21 year old wanting to stay out past then?

Yeah sure nice one - let's try to get kids to blame Gen Z and older for "wasting water", with only the tiniest of nods to "let's keep 'improving the network' ".

Would you care to show a graph of how much water wastage is from not "improving the network" opposed some child's hand breaking through the tiles and turning off everyone's showers 10 seconds earlier?

Perhaps adding Data Centres (including newly proposed and planning approved AI related ones) to the same graph?

No, didn't think so. Get in the fucking sea, water companies - you're good at that.

Used to work at Morrisons so keep an eye on news about it and just saw that they’ve discontinued their ‘AI Carts’ (whatever that is or means), and I’m like ok this is a actual annoying problem atm.

Why is it like EVERYTHING seems to have invested in these stupid AI tools in their sites and apps, and I don’t know if I’m at odds here, but the vast majority was not worth whatever investment was dumped into it. Furthermore it actually pisses me off because it puts more spam type marketing emails and pop ups in my life like ‘Try Tilly! Our New AI service that helps you by giving you useless recommendations and completely doesn’t work for anything actually useful!’

Like all my bank apps, shopping apps, delivery apps, furniture stores, EVERYTHING!

If I’m gonna use AI, I’ll probably use Gemini or something, I’m not gonna use your bloatware, upselling, data collecting, sunk cost AI tool, leave me alone.

Called the drs, they inform me I'm in 7th place...

I hang up, have a cup of tea and call back...

I'm now in 2nd place...

Great, this shouldn't take long...

Periodically they remind me that I'm in 2nd place, thanks for waiting, the call is important and if its not life threatening, consider calling back later...

No, should be fine, I'm in 2nd place...

An entire hour passes of listening to the same rotating messages and hold music and I can't decide if there's a glitch in the system or the person who is actually on the line is being incredibly difficult...

I gave up, I'll try again tomorrow

I can't decide what's worse...

Being told your 19th in queue or 2nd for an hour straight
