Friendo, while you might have picked up some maladaptive behaviours (maybe) an actual narcissist wouldn’t care.

It would just be everyone else that was wrong and no need to self reflect.

I have a two week cough (and counting). No signs of letting up, my voice is destroyed. The only good part of this is the cough medicine I got prescribed. It’s delicious and makes me feel woozy.

I had a three month cough in my early thirties (they suspected whooping cough actually), codeine tablets gave me the relief and the sweet sweet sleep I needed.

I had one of these when I was 20 and they gave me liquid codeine. That tasted awful though but forced me to go ni nighs. Not just a gentle “hey, wanna go to sleep?” but more like a “haha sleep time, idiot”. Magic stuff.

Okay okay I’m playing Hot Take Thursday too.

I think trams are inefficient… they are so inflexible with rerouting, you can’t have express services, they can get majorly delayed by traffic, and because they can’t overtake, if one breaks down a whole lot get stuffed, and I still think it’s wild you often have to walk into the road to get on/off trams. And new routes are next to impossible to establish these days. I think people defend trams for the romantic charm but I think they are increasingly impractical for a city this size. Would rather see electric buses with bus lanes or fully separated light rail, not this worst of both worlds kind of thing.

Trams are garbage. They manage to be both shit trains AND shit busses.

Reminder that no matter how much marketing and weird hype there is from McDonald’s and Americans… the McRib is garbage and they only bring it out once every now and then to capture the curiosity of those who fall for the hype.

Not a fan of regular ribs, I don’t think I’d ever voluntarily consume simulated ribs.

I do like their simulated chicken though.

Saying McDonald’s food is garbage is not really a Hot take is it ?
