By the way, Elon Musk didn't start Tesla. By the time he invested in Tesla, the original founders had already started building the Roadster THEY had designed. When he bought them out, he changed the history of the company to make himself a founder. I'm not joking. He's always been a fraud.

I've always wondered if Vanilla Ice knows the meaning of the word "collaborate" when he demands that you "stop, collaborate and listen". Best not get into "wax my chump like a candle" or "I'm a lyrical poet", though.

250 years, wow! America is so cuuute! I live in a town called Newcastle because the Normans built a castle a thousand years ago that was newer than the ones the Romans built a thousand years before that.

I performed on the soundtrack to Braveheart. I once shot through the middle of a polo mint. Nelson Mandela once asked if I was ashamed to shake his hand. Two truths and a lie is difficult when I am in the room.

'Accept cookies/confirm choices'. If you don't offer a 'reject/decline all' option from the outset, I'm not going through pages & pages of your 300 vendors selecting & deselecting as appropriate. Nor am I just going to agree to all out of resigned apathy. I simply don't use your site/app. Fuck off.
