For men who like to express their 'don't give a fuck' opinions via the
medium of the t-shirt slogan, they certainly spend some time preening
themselves. My personal favourit is the shotgun peppered t-shirt, "How
can we make this t-shirt better?" Lets shoot it! Only in America...

A t shirt actually shot with holes ? Takes distressing to another level.
I've noticed the ridiculous "holes in brand new jeans" thing has actually spread to other garments like t's and such. Leaving the wearer looking like they have a moth infestation.

Today's pouring of scorn..
#1. Amazon Echo? what kind of f***ing Starbucks drinking w**ker wants one of these in their home?
#2. I caught an advert on TV for a 4WD car, might have been a Jeep, im not sure... anywhoo Its all about 'Freedom' climbing, canoeing, hiking, you get the picture and how the Jeep is your gateway to being free. At the end of the advert it says 'Test drive your Jeep today from £250/month subject to status ect ect' Yes indeed Jeep, nothing says 'Freedom' like being tied into a 5 year repayment scheme.
That's all for today..

If only it was that easy to retrieve mr b.
I ordered an item from France but the seller missed the company name so Yodel was 'refused at door' what door? i have no idea??. The parcel was returned to the depot and the tracking states "please get in touch we need some more information" I then contacted Yodel 11 times over a period of 9 days to give them the company name, everyday the tracking is updated "we need more information" everyday i give them the same f***ing information. I could drive there and back in 2 hours but you cant re-arrange or collect until an attempt has been made and a card has been left. Aaaah!!

Best quote from the promo film "At first glance you might not notice anything special about the jacket and you'd be right Its a standard Levi's jacket" Ouch!
I
feel like Ive missed the boat in regards to the whole fitbit
phenomenon, my brother in law has the apple version, he's not overweight
he's an electric bike riding skinny vegan hipster, he doesn't really
like activity he just seems to like technology telling him what to do, if his watch beeps he'll go do some star jumps.
This
might sound like a crazy notion but i wonder if overweight peeps have
ever considered an alternative to a tech based radical diet plan of just
'eating less food and exercising more often? Now if i can just figure out a way of fluffing
those 7 words out to fill a 200page glossy book and accompanying 12 part
TV series i'll be rich, rich i tells ya! QVC watch out, im not afraid of spandex and leg warmers.

cholesterol, heart rate you know the kind of thing. One of my neighbours
Julian was told that at 13 stone he was almost 2 stone overweight and verging on
obesity, he said to me "Aw! im going to have to buy a mountain bike, and

Keep preaching brother
True Story #1
- I work for a fitness company
- I work in technology
- I build apps
- My company wants these things
- I tell them basically the same thing.
We call this a "vanity metric" in my world. Yeah a lot of people download these apps but nobody uses them and nobody makes any money from them. Unless the app is lifting the weight for you, it's never going to take off. The issue isn't the tech it's that people don't like to work out.
True story #2
"Dr. Douglas Lisle, who has spent the last two decades researching and studying this evolutionary syndrome, explains that all of us inherit innate incentives from our ancient ancestors that he terms The Motivational Triad: the pursuit of pleasure, the avoidance of pain, and the conservation of energy. Unfortunately, in present day America's convenience-centric, excess-oriented culture, where fast food, recreational drugs, and sedentary shopping have become the norm, these basic instincts that once successfully insured the survival and reproduction of man many millennia ago, no longer serve us well. In fact, it's our unknowing enslavement to this internal, biological force embedded in the collective memory of our species that is undermining our health and happiness today."

| I try to run 3-4 times a week, although it has been a challenge of late as Mrs F has been working flat out for the last 5 months and consequently I've had less time for myself as I'm so involved with the kids, whilst working as flexibly as possible! I've had to fit in runs where I can with no real routine - it's easier to go on a warm, light July evening than a dark, cold November one.
Re the tech, I wear an old Timex Ironman watch as I like to time my runs. I often carry my phone (useful in the event of getting lost [unlikely in London] or injured [likely at my age]) so use a free app (Runtastic) to track distance, as the Timex can't do that. Thumbloops are definitely useful in this weather, it was 2C when I set out at 6.30 on Monday morning and my hands didn't start warming up until over a half hour into the run, I might have to dig my gloves out soon.
How about you?

3-4 times a week is good going im impressed. I don't run
much through the summer i run more at this time of year, its dark
around 4ish and once kiddo has hit the sack at 8:30 my Mrs picks up a
book and im at a loose end so i go for a run possibly twice a week. I
take a (app free) phone just in case i fall on rocks and break my ankle
but my watch annoys me jingling around my wrist so i leave it at home
or in the car. Im only running for the fun of it, i don't want to loose
weight or increase my times/fitness (although it would be nice) its just
a pleasure to be running outdoors. I used to run with a headtorch but
if the moons out once your away from light pollution, give your eyes a
good 15mins to adjust and its amazing, like daylight. Once you get back
to streetlights your as blind as a bat.
Feel free to start a running tread if you like sporky.

Too true^ Ultimately we all seem to be corruptible by nice things, here's a
perfect example... Near us we have a couple of starkly
contrasting cafe's, one is a wooden hut on the allotments where you can go buy excess
produce mainly beans, potatoes and the like, you can get a decent cup of
tea or coffee for 70p, chipped cups, wash your own pots 'donations
welcome' type of
establishment, the other is a stately home afternoon tea type of affair for
moneyed pensioners in pastel trousers who've taken golden handshake
retirement.
Mini-soul likes to drop by here in the summer for a small tub of
exorbitantly priced
ice-cream, its served on a china plate with a really nice spoon, he
prefers the plastic spoon you get free under the lid (you can get into
the corners of the tub better with the plastic spoon) so when he's not
looking my
mrs has been sneaking the posh spoons into her handbag  When she calls
at the
allotments for a cup of tea she sneaks them out of her bag 'incognito like' and into their
cutlery tray, and vise-versa she does the old 'spoon-switcheroo' for
the tea-stained 'allotment' spoons when she goes for ice-cream (hopefully neither establishment has realised what's occuring) She likes
to think of it as guerrilla-liberalism, 'why
shouldn't everybody get the pleasure of using a well designed spoon damn
it!.
I like to think she's making the world a nicer place for everyone
albeit one spoon at a time... I digress, This morning i was making boiled
eggs
and toasty soldiers for us all and i found one of the posh spoons in our
drawer, it stands out a mile against our £5.99 Ikea-spoonage my mrs
said 'its been there for ages' but when i got three spoons from the
drawer for
our breakfast, i made sure i got the nice spoon for myself, and why shouldn't i? So now im
feeling less
like Robin Hood and more like Robert Mugabe.

This weeks head in hands despair...
#1 My kid's partial to the occasional youtube click-bait which he watches on his DS, most of which appears to be low budget productions of people getting chased by killer-clowns  or chalenges of one kind or another but what irratates me is how fucking aggressive the makers of the video's are when it comes to persuading their audience of children to click 'Like' Some even have a 5min hard sell skit before the video even starts...ffs!
#2 We recently watched the film Hotel Transylvania on TV, it was alright to be fair, a song came on called 'Im Sexy and i Know It' and my kid says "can you put this song on my mp3 player dad" "yeah ok" so i pulled it up on youtube....
^fast-fwd to 1min or so in and there's some dude in speedo's waving his cock around... what the fuck! in what meeting did Sony/Disney ever consider a song with 'Sexy' in the title by 'LMFAO' which has an accompanying video of men pointing at their penis while thrusting their genitalia around appropriate for a target audience of 7+ "Ive got passion in my pants and i ain't afraid to show it, Im sexy and i know it"
Thanks Sony/Disney!

With any luck, Sony/Disney's webcrawlers will pick up your post and cite it in the corporate broadcast memo entitled: "Please review (emphasis on the "view") all contents of media promoted to children."
The memo would have the following addendum: Please, for the love of God, show a little more class/imagination in musically imprinting the next generation. Wonder how many women were on the team that selected the soundtrack.
Like, d-uh.

Indubitably, The sexualisation of very young children by the media does annoy the crap out of me, when you hear suggestive lyrics by lets say Azealia Banks im down with that because her target audience is the sort of... 16+ age group and she markets herself towards that audience via the media which reaches them.
Wheres Jessie J, and (hood-rat) Nicki Minaj market themselves towards the 8-12 post Nickelodeon, Disney age group with 'bubblegum pop' lyrics like....
She mightâve let you hold her hand at school Kitten so good Itâs dripping on wood Get a ride in the engine that could Go, Batman, robbin it Bang bang, cock in it Ride his uh like a Harley Then pull off in his Ferrari If he hanging we banging....
What the fuck happened to Ring a Ring o' Roses or Here we go round the Mulberry Bush

Yuck. Those lyrics, 00.
Though they are infantile in their efforts to shock and offend, they are beyond inappropriate for anyone under the age of, well, I'm not sure.
I'm not a prude but, if I heard that crap over the radio waves, I'd be calling in a complaint faster than you could say "Elvis Presley's hip gyrations."
The only thing those lyrics have going for them is their lack of overt violence. If you don't count STDs, nobody gets hurt and, in theory, everything is consensual. Still, I have never bought into the notion that there is anything empowering in debasing human relations to the strictly carnal. This is not the yardstick I'd want my (imaginary) daughter or son using to measure their feelings for another person.
Guess that puts paid to my theory about the regulating effect of women in the boardroom. If the female artists themselves are in on the deal, what hope?
PS Yes, quite right you are, 00, in alluding to the adult themes of Ring around the Roses and Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush. The difference is in these songs' successful cloaking of their darker message.
Tune in next week to Radio Denimbro, when we further explore the theme of "Achieving Artistic Transcendence through Sophisticated Metaphors: Or How to Keep Your Wet Cat Away From Learner-Driven Motorbikes and Automobiles." ... and now, here's Serge Gainbourg and Jane Birkin's chart-burner, "Je T'aime"...

E-Bikes, the pleasure of free exercise removed. As a species we continue
to get larger, diabetes puts strain on our health service meanwhile we
continue to invent aids to do less. Don't even get me started on unnecessary battery usage...

I think the target market would consider the phrase "the pleasure of exercise" to be antithetical to their very being.

The bike shops must love it..."my doctor has told me i desperately need
to take more exercise but i can't be fucking arsed, what are my
options?" Ive never done a days exercise in my life, never been to the
gym and i have no aspirations to look muscular but i can keep fit/active
doing the things which i enjoy. We have a park near by
where mini-soul learned to ride his first bike, its perfectly flat, people drive to this park in snazzy Audi's, BMW's ect with 1000,s of pounds worth
of brand new full-sus mountain bikes on the roof rack... to ride around the
park, there are no mountains, you might come across the occasional pebble
on the path. They're kitted out in full on Enduro gear with full face helmet yet they are never more than 1mile away from
their car, these peni/penis'usus are now gliding around on e-bikes

To play devils advocate on the e bikes. (I don't actually care one way or the other about them). If it's enabling someone to commute to work on one instead of driving a car, then i'm all for that. Fewer cars on the road is good for everyone.
In my area there's these share bikes and share scooter companies all over. Some are electric and some are manual i believe. That's hopefully getting people out of taxis and ubers too.

There used to be a company called 'Ofo' running yellow dockless bicycles
in the city, they launched the scheme in Jan 2018 and pulled out 6
months later in July due to too much vandalism, even the fuzz refused to
collect anymore of the bikes which had been dumped. I saw two of them
in the river where i was fishing on Monday.

The problem as i see it is... everyone is on a single level, now im
not one of them highfalutin 'route planners' but im sure we would be
better off with a multi-level approach, i appreciate that traditional building materials like concrete and
tarmac would be impractical so i would propose something similar to Scalextric.
We could combat the waste plastics
floating around in our oceans by collecting it all up in a giant sieve
and recycling it into sections of track, the seasalt needn't be a
byproduct because it be incorporated into the compound as a
de-icer for the colder months. When a section of track becomes worn
out or damaged just pull it apart and shove a fresh section in, everyone
would be going the same speed (ultra-fast) and on a preset course so no
chance of collisions and even in worst case scenarios we can just have a
loop the loop down to the next section.
As our
population grows we can build it higher and even though the folks at
higher altitude would have much further to travel they needn't worry about
being late for work because their watch will have slowed down due to kinematic time dilation.
He he!

Aaarh!
Gmail updated to their newest version yesterday with some very unpleasant new features, ive just has the first post-update email from a friend regarding sunshine, spending time with the kids and all good things, gmails new reply feature has already scanned the incoming email and filled in my response via proxy. I have the choice of "I agree with you" "Have a great time" or "Very funny"
I don't have to take them up on their generous offer of course, i can do it myself if i could only bear to communicate with friends.... fuck, im going to ask Alexa to contribute to denimbro in future cos i can't be arsed

I was trying to make toasty soldiers last Saturday and the handle on the
toaster wouldn't stay down, i sorted it with an improvised fish slice,
using a tin of beans as a weight... It was only £7 from argos and we've
had it for 12 years so we've had our monies worth.
I thought i would get
a new one in the black Friday shenanigans, having never bought a
toaster before i thought i'd better be prepared and had a peruse online.
WTF! terrible DJ and TV presenter Fearne Cotton is now a 'celebrity toaster designer'
Its 'on trend' apparently

She also hosts a Radio 2 show on Sunday nights at 7pm. I heard about 10 minutes in the car recently and turned it off before the temptation to drive into an HGV overwhelmed me. If you think her toasterâs bad, just give her droning, whining show a spin!
PS just get a classic Dualit toaster.
