I hate Internet ads that are two people on a fake podcast saying stuff like "We've travelled the world searching for undiscovered plants and learning from the Namboo Namboo tribe" and they're just selling like an overpriced toothbrush

Relationships are simple. All you do is have one person ask, "Did you say something?" when you're in another room, until you die.

People often ask me: 'What exactly is the West Ham Way?' This sort of explains it.

The second time I have completely forgotten what day it is and missed putting the bins out. Nobody talks about the struggles of summer holidays.

The author of this unbelievably amazing book is many things... - Genius - Charming - Saintly - Humble But one thing he isn't...is biased. (Jokes aside) I'm grateful to all who've bought TEACHER MAN. I worked harder on this than anything, ever, so I hope you enjoy it.
In TEACHER MAN, @GeorgePointon_ takes us along on his first year inside the messy, magical world of primary school teaching! In the company of five-year-olds – who are somehow wisdom, innocence and chaos incarnate – there is always lots to be learned. Out today in paperback!

There's a kid on my street who's been out the front on his bike every day for weeks. He's clearly been trying to learn a wheelie. Today, I saw him do it. Front wheel up for the whole length of the road. The kid is about the summer of his life.

When talking masculinity with male pupils, I always refer to this video. Macho actually drops one of the greatest inspirational speeches of all time. Dig it!
On the Arsenio Hall Show, Macho Man Randy Savage had a GREAT answer to the question if he ever cried. Happy Men's Mental Health Awareness Month.

Every episode of Sunday Brunch is just an author of a murder mystery novel, a British rapper clearly hungover and an American actor not having a clue why they're eating scallops at 10am and talking about where's best to buy car insurance

Life is seemingly a relentless, monotonous hellscape, and I fear the drums of death are only over the horizon... but thank you for asking, I'll have two chicken bakes

1. The Book Bus Life moves relentlessly, and most children don't even read. But the way that bus would inspire us is breathtaking. You long for its appearance like a travelling circus, when you least expect it. This massive bus of joy parks on your playground and into your heart.
