I think this Sean Lock joke might have made me laugh more than anything in the history of comedy. I still think about this every time I make a cup of tea. So efficient 😂 #RIPSeanLock

Woke up to some very very sad news today. My little viral kitten friend Tater Tot has passed away. 😞. This tiny grompy potato has had such a profound impact. If you can, please consider making a donation in Tater Tot’s memory to or to your local shelter.

Gr*h*m L*n*h*n should never have messed with Rose. Or Sister Michael. Big mistake. Huge. Well done to Siobhan for making a stand here 🏳️⚧️
The mistake he has made is demeaning a woman who the public like and have gotten to know.His hateful and cruel obsession is revealed. It’s not an abstract enemy. It’s that lady off that that show they like. It’s not statistical outliers. It’s not Other. It’s gorgeous @RoseSchmits.

How about just standing with TRANSGENDER PEOPLE who DON'T IN ANY WAY DESERVE TO BE DEMONISED by a PRIVILEGED CIS WHITE HET BILLIONAIRE from her GIANT MANSION.
Lovely to see support for @jk_rowling dotted around Glasgow Fort today. Spotted these stickers at The Body Shop, Lush and M&S. Hope Jo sees this. So many women are grateful that we’ve got such a brave woman on our side ❤️ #IStandWithJKRowling

@ask_aubry Urgh I was going to comment on this and try to be funny but shit like this is why I hate my body. I've never had a flat stomach, even as a kid. I remember the 90s crop top and low rise cargo trend with depressed horror.

Not to be a jerk, but if you (a PR) ask me (editor of @EdinburghLive_) for a meeting, then ask where in London our office is, I will have to mock you. We are a website called Edinburgh Live that only writes about Edinburgh. where do you think we could possibly be based?.

Which joke or word by a comedian amused you so much it entered into your daily vocabulary? For me it's @SarahMillican75's gag about temporarily forgetting the word "cook" - "I just ovened a pie".

The only joke I think about almost as much is from @SarahMillican75's 2011 show Chatterbox: "I couldn't remember the verb 'to cook' the other day and I rang me boyfriend and said, "I've just ovened a pie.". This goes through my head whenever I use the oven. Or eat pie.
