PREVIOUSLY, ON YOUR DECLINE
- You "don't do small talk". You also don't do big talk, phone calls, emails…

- Your alarm didn't wake you. The dread did. It doesn't have a snooze button.
- Abs are made in the kitchen. So are toasties. The toasties are undefeated.
- Your out-of-office reply is the most confident thing you wrote all year. Nobody noticed…
- You call yourself "a bit of a foodie". You've ordered the same chicken 64…
- You film "Sunday reset" videos. By Tuesday your room has reset itself, to Saturday.
