I love doing old people stuff, such as calling the park planner to talk about ambiguity in a sign. #travel #retiredlife

Wandering the Sunday Night Market. Loudspeaker, English: "Please stand for the Thai National Anthem." Music, then singing & everyone freezes. No noise. Song over, everyone continues. So surreal. Like something out of the Matrix. #travel #backpacking

I groused about driving on the other side in London rush hour traffic with a hangover. Today, I found a new benchmark. My @Uber driver navigated a stick-shift, full cab/four seat _pickup_ in _Thai traffic_ & Old Town Market crowds at NIGHT. F That. He wins. #Uber #badass #travel

A few traffic lights in Chiang Mai have a countdown timer beside the stop lights. They are in the same colour, so say 28 seconds left on green or like 122 seconds in red. Pretty cool! #travel #Thailand #backpacking

I usually take 3-6 month breaks in between the gym, so that when I go back the runner's high is way more intense. I believe weed smokers call it a tolerance break. #gymrat #gymlife #FakeNews

As someone who watch @CopsTV from the jump, it is super weird watching the show go meta in episode 17 season 30. The cop said he watched Cops as a kid.

Matt X @matt604
Hey @CopsTV , I love your show and have been watching since 1989. It's 2018 now, so can we stop showing people getting busted for marijuana?
Matt X
Matt X @matt604
@CopsTV At the start of every show, you have amazing footage of the location with officer's doing voice over. Is there some place I can get the raw footage?

Severe histamine toxicity AKA Scombroid food poisoning is a new life experience for me. Thought it was an allergy but no. Bad marlin. Very very not pleasant. #travel #backpacking

I always feel bad calling about Internet problems, but this time I have 3 techs in my livingroom and two engineers on their phones. Someone gurfed the modem in the basement.

Apparently it's a core network problem and I am the only one affected.

They broke out the line tester at one point to see if it was a signal issue.

So, @googlemaps just sent me an email to tell me 50,000 people in @Richmond_BC have looked at a shitty plate of curry I had at the mall. I uploaded it Jan 2017. The population of Richmond in 2017 was 218,307.

The #RichmondBC Night Market has become a lame cash grab. $5 to get in? $8 fried potato on a stick?! It was WAY better at the old location with sketchy vendors, dodgy food stalls and a donation to the fire fighters to get in. #Vancouver
