“It’s hard to believe it’s not Scholes, it’s Carrick You Know“ ONLY RIGHT AS WELL 👹

[The Husky @Mr_Husky1]

A dog failed his service dog exam, and was later seen at a train station carrying the reason why.

People at the station couldn’t stop staring when the dog walked onto the train with a stuffed elephant held proudly in his mouth.

At first, everyone thought it was part of his training.
But his owner started laughing and explained the truth.

The dog had been training to become a service dog, but during one of his final tests, he kept getting distracted by an elephant plushie nearby. Instead of staying focused, he tried to steal it like it was the only thing in the room that mattered.

That was the moment he failed.

But his owner said he couldn’t be mad. The dog had tried his best, and even if he wasn’t meant to be a service dog, he was still loyal, gentle, and full of love.

So before they left, he bought him the elephant toy.

That night, the dog didn’t pass the exam, but he still went home with the person who chose him anyway.

There are places we pass through in life… and there are places that become part of who we are.
Manchester will forever be my home.

To the city, the club, and every supporter, my sincerest thank you. These past four years have been unforgettable, filled with moments my family and I will carry with us for the rest of our lives. There simply aren’t enough words to describe the happiness and warmth we’ve felt here.

Thank you for every cheer, every memory, and for making us feel at home from the very first day.

Forever a Red Devil ❤️

Met with a financial advisor today

My wife set it up

She wants "a professional opinion" on our retirement

Nice office

Glass desk

Diploma on the wall from a school I've never heard of

The advisor was 23

Maybe 24

He had a pullover vest and a rehearsed handshake

He handed me a pitch book

It had someone else's name on it

I chose not to mention that

He said "based on your risk profile I'd recommend a 60/40 portfolio"

I said "what's the fee?"

He said "1% annually"

I ran the compound drag over 25 years in my head

Said the number out loud

Then I said it again slower

His smile went away

I said "what's the tax strategy?"

He said "we review that annually"

I said "what's the Roth conversion ladder? The asset location framework? The blended expense ratio on the underlying funds? Why wouldn't I just buy VOO for free and do this from my phone?"

He opened his mouth

Closed it

Excused himself

Came back with his boss

Same vest

Bigger watch

The boss said "I hear you have some concerns"

I said "not concerns. Questions. Your 23-year-old couldn't answer them. That's my concern."

My wife kicked me under the table

I kept going

The boss said "the value is in the relationship"

I said "that's what my therapist says too. She charges $250 an hour. You're charging more and doing less."

The boss looked at my wife

My wife looked at the ceiling

I've now been to a therapist, a realtor, a car dealership, and a financial advisor this month

My wife has walked out of every single one

I asked her in the car what she thinks the common denominator is

She said "you"

I said "interesting. Not sure how to model that."

Plz fix. Thx.

Dear @ICC,

We wish to take this opportunity to thank you for the recent T20 World Cup, a global cricketing spectacle on a scale unlike any other in past years. It was so good that several nations decided not to leave upon their tournament exit, and it appears they might never do so.

As for us, the tournament brought drama and infamy. We staked our claim to replace the forfeiting Pakistan, then realised the harsh economic and logistical realities of international sport. Colombo is not Reykjavík, in so many ways. Then we had the unforfeiture of Pakistan, an event that actually vindicated our 'stay-at-home, fire it out online' strategy. They knew their plan and played it like a fish.

Let's not forget the actual cricket. The associate nations nearly caused several shocks - both Nepal, Netherlands, and Italy all coming within a whisker of a win over the big boys. Then there was the classic match between Afghanistan and South Africa, which was so good they did the Super Over twice.

At the end of the day, it was India's tournament to host and they delivered, blasting more than 500 runs across the semis and final. They brought the fire. We watched and tried to learn, but lava bedded wickets are not quite the same. Conquering Iceland remains the ultimate litmus test of a batter.

We count the statistics and arrive at an aggregate count of 245 posts by us on X and 3,420 loaves of bread baked by our captain, Dushan Bandara, across the tournament as a whole. Our Chairman, a ship captain, steered all voyages safely into harbour.

And finally, the world famous Íslensk Premier League (ÍPL) is now only two months away, the T20 franchise tournament with a sub-Arctic twist. We wait patiently and keep our keyboards warm.

Yours sincerely,

Icelandic Cricket Association

An employee requested to work remotely from Bali for six months.

He wanted to live the 'digital nomad' lifestyle.

I told him absolutely. We believe in work-life integration.

I approved his 'Global Mobility' application immediately.

He was thrilled to trade his apartment for a villa with a pool.

He signed the location addendum without reading the appendix on 'Purchasing Power Parity.'

When his first paycheck landed, he called me in a panic.

It was for $650.

I explained that under our 'Geographic Equity Model,' salaries are algorithmically adjusted to the local cost of living of the employee's current GPS location.

Since a bowl of noodles in Ubud costs $2, we simply cannot justify paying San Francisco rates.

We are helping him live like a local.

It’s the authentic experience he asked for.

[Tottenham Hotspur @SpursOfficial]

The Club has taken the decision to make a change in the Men’s Head Coach position and Thomas Frank will leave today.

Thomas was appointed in June 2025, and we have been determined to give him the time and support needed to build for the future together.

However, results and performances have led the Board to conclude that a change at this point in the season is necessary.

Throughout his time at the Club, Thomas has conducted himself with unwavering commitment, giving everything in his efforts to move the Club forward. We would like to thank him for his contribution and wish him every success in the future.
