Just Yolking! 😉

Yesterday, I had published "Fear on the Shelves" on my blog. For  those who are not aware, in recent months, a relentless wave of severe federal warnings has turned US refrigerators into potential biohazards. And among the everyday staples involved, eggs are high on the list! 

But today, I only want to look at the sunny side of things. And I couldn't resist sharing this extended pun – it's just too good to keep scrambled...

Celtic secured a 2-1 victory over St Mirren in a massive top-of-the-table clash in Paisley yesterday! 

The hosts opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the 22nd minute after a volley struck Liam Scales' arm inside the box. But the Bhoys fought right back in the second half! 🙌 

In the 51st minute, Scales redeemed himself with a towering header at the near post from a Benjamin Nygren corner! 

Then, in the 68th minute, Yang Hyun-Jun timed his run perfectly to meet Nygren's cross, with a deflection looping it past the keeper for the winner.

5 games played, 5 games won, 5 points clear at the top of the table.

I Drank Too Much

Flo & Joan (sisters Nicola and Rosie Dempsey) perform one of their best loved songs describing a debaucherous bender! 

This fan-favourite track hilariously chronicles a "perfect night out" that quickly devolves into chaotic, alcohol-fueled mishaps. 

From Rob Delaney's Stand Up Central.

The brilliant irony of this song lies in its structure. They pair pristine, church-choir-style vocal harmonies with an increasingly chaotic narrative about getting blackout drunk and falling off a bar.

Nicola’s stone-faced keyboard playing perfectly balances Rosie’s manic, wide-eyed energy as the lyrics devolve from a "sophisticated glass of vino" into utter public devastation.

It succeeds because it is deeply relatable but structurally flawless. The relentless, escalating rhythm mimics the exact feeling of a night out spiralling out of control. 

A sharp observational comedy song that has become my favourite!

Liverpool had hoped for their first win of the season at newly promoted Ipswich Town yesterday. 

After all, the Reds have won their last four Premier League games against the Tractor Boys across the 2001-02 and 2024-25 seasons, scoring 17 goals and conceding just once.

And they got the job done with a smooth 2-0 victory, giving new boss Andoni Iraola his very first Premier League victory in charge of the Merseysiders. 

The opening goal came when Cody Gakpo picked up the ball 40 yards out and in the 6th minute, threaded a beautiful pass to Alexander Isak, who buried a powerful finish from a tight angle. 

Just three minutes later, Gakpo pulled off a ridiculous trivela pass, setting up Isak to round the keeper and slide in his second.

Life Is Weird And Hilarious

Joe Lennon's one-panel cartoons leave no room for unnecessary details. With just a single image and a few carefully chosen words, cartoonists have to establish a situation, surprise the reader, and deliver a memorable punchline, all within seconds. 

It's a familiar format behind some of the most iconic comics. It perfectly proves that life is weird and hilarious.

Absurdist Comics

Absurdist cartoons embrace nonsensical humor, defy narrative logic, and explore surreal premises. These charmingly curious creations reject realism, replacing straightforward plots with unexpected, bizarre gags that leave audiences laughing at the delightfully unexpected. 

Every comic operates as a setup that gleefully defies all predictions – they're definitely wonderfully whimsical! 

M&M's Loses Two Iconic Colors

As M&M’s celebrates its 85th birthday, it’s rolling out a new version of its candy made without artificial dyes starting in August. 

The catch? Blue and brown candies won’t be part of the first lineup because Mars say those colors have been especially difficult and expensive to recreate using natural ingredients. 

After experimenting with alternatives like pink and purple, the company decided to stick with red, yellow, orange, and green for now, with plans to bring back the full color mix by 2028. 

The move was compelled because of renewed pressure on food companies to phase out artificial dyes, despite Mars previously backing away from a similar pledge years ago. 

The announcement by Mars was first reported by The Wall Street Journal on June 18, and it comes after the candy maker went public in 2025 with their intent to offer non-artificially colored options for M&M’s Chocolate, Skittles Original, Extra Gum Spearmint, and Starburst Original fruit chews by 2026.

Well, color me shocked! I never would have guessed! 😁😁😁
