I can’t believe how poor the service I am receiving from @virginmedia is. Been struggling for 2 months with broadband upgrade. Hours wasted on the phone waiting for and talking to call centre. Feel like I should sue them for disrupting my work.

@TheLastLeg …that unimaginative comedians keep harping on about it?

@jessphillips Jess it is so great to know you are tweeting because you care so much, not just because you want to discredit the opposition. So selfless of you

[Dave Aron @davearon]

I just suffered really terrible service at the hands of @Adobe that, even though legally correct, was extremely unkind, and feels like a rip-off. They have made an uncustomer for life. And now, I have written a tweet about it, and feel about 2% better :):(:)

@ProfBrianCox I would agree Brian, because my beliefs may be familiar to yours. But unfortuately, that is the nature of ideologies. They affect everything.

Rewatching clips of the awesome @FrankieBoyle abuse his audience, it occurs to me that, as a morbidly obese Jew who is an IT consultant, married to a younger Thai wife, I may be a secret weapon designed by the CIA to explode Frankie's mind with the possibilities of insulting me.

I am getting ripped off by this company called @Beer52HQ. They don't allow you to cancel subscription online, and never answer the phone. Can anyone advise/help as to what to do? #ripoff #fraud

If you want to really hurt your parents, and you don't have the nerve to be gay, the least you can do is go into the arts.

Thought for the day: Climate change, equality, deep fakes, privacy, ethics of automation/AI etc. are the easy issues to address, preserving/enhancing our humanity is the tough one.

A thought for the weekend: The power of brevity, the invisibility of sacred cows and the yin/yang of intellectual property.
