I am really hoping they’d have what happened with the lunatics team’s spa treatment! I assume it’s going to be basically a torture chamber given Alex’s at the mercy of the two most unhinged contestants in the history of this series!
I genuinely looked away from it and didn’t quite recover from it until half way through the workout task. And I thought the saliva task from S13 was bad.
Alex puts up with an impressive amount of bullshit…
To be fair, it seems to be a thing in his regular life. Greg mentioned it in the episode, but I think Tim Key also said Alex would eat anything when challenged.
This is probably my favourite episode! I enjoyed it from start to finish! Sue’s “please don’t make me fart in the dark listening to my own name!”, then the reveal of Wayne just put the biggest smile on my face. I was as excited as they were. And the tension of the placement of their cardboard selves. Soooo good! I loved it so much!
Felt like the search should have happened when they found she chucked the dehydrator out at the latest. But it seems like they have substantial evidence of intent to support the murder charges.
Not sure if it’s a small thing but I think I would change it so good deeds make a bigger impression on people than the bad.
It’s a bit of a rainbow sunshine kind of wish but it’s human nature to remember bad things easier than the good, it’s a survival instinct to protect ourselves. But with all these conflicts and discrimination, big or small, if people don’t let fear dominate, everyone would cut each other more slack.
Of course this requires everyone to have the same mindset to work, that’s why I think making that small change in human nature at its core is the only way, and only a genie could pull that off.
That’s pretty cool. Other than the 90s see through colourful laptops (which I think I’m only fond of because of nostalgia), I also miss those black and white MacBook designs of.the 2000s. Good to see black Mac is making a come back.
I, like Sue, assumed she was in the clear since she completed her task. But it was still very moving how Sue graciously accepted it right away and just happy to help a friend. Julian’s comment about LGBT community in conclusion just topped it off. I didn’t expect Taskmaster to make me feel teary.
I think unless they’re competitive like Ed, Rose, Dara, James, etc, they would prefer to show up less prepared for more comedic effect. Also to be fair, Katherine bashed out several random miracles in a small space of time, I barely remember it myself, as a die hard TM fan.
This is barely even a “formality” before a massacre. Israel was looking for an excuse to go all out without any restraint and they got it. It’s fucking tragic that these bastards are playing with civilians lives. Fuck both authorities.
I’m sure Uncle Roger would approve. The spring onions are being used as garnish! Also it looks like they’re using a proper wok! They’re a wok fuckboi like Uncle Gordon!
Seriously though, it looks great. Nothing wrong with throwing hot dog into fried rice. Fried rice is basically a fancy way to eat up leftovers anyway! It sounds like something you could get in a Hong Kong diner/Cha Chaan Teng
I’m super drowsy even though I had some caffeine. I’m drinking lots of water and eating healthy foods, but is there anything else I can do in the meantime?...
I would say meditation or a power nap, but if you are super drowsy, I think you will likely sleep through it.
You could go for a long walk in a park (ideally close to your interview location) to get your body active and hope that the energy would carry through to the interview instead of tiring you out more.
But the safest option is still to ask to reschedule because of illness. Cold, IBS, migraine, plumbing issue… Your choice.
Some weeks ago I kept seeing a story that I can’t seem to find anymore. A dog was guarding a flock or a herd, and after an attack on the animals the dog was watching over, it went missing for days tracking down a pack of wolves or coyotes and killing most or all of them. There was said to be a trail of dead pack members. The...

Those colourful see-through iMacs trigger such nostalgia in me!! I can still remember playing with them and the dinosaur game on it at school like it was yesterday. I loved them.
Wow that’s about 7 years of battle. I am glad they got some compensation for that. Their case was taking on pro bono but I still think the compensation should be more considering how long this went on.
