    its so funny that despite knowing for about 15 years that he needs the white noise of a hairdryer to go to sleep, it has seemingly never occurred to Wayne Rooney to just use a recording of the noise

    Damn . MUHAMMAD died 6 times at different ages and twice at the same age. 🤣
    Readers added context
    Muhammad is the most common name in the world, with over 150 million people sharing the name. This is due to the large Muslim population globally and the tradition among Muslims of naming their sons after the Islamic prophet Muhammad. geeksforgeeks.org/most-common-fi… thebump.com/b/muhammad-bab…

    one of the reasons we can't have nice thinks in the UK is because every time someone posts an obviously scandalous train ticket price, 300 pedants come out the woodwork to say 'actually if you book at midnight on a tuesday on a full moon while whistling dixie you can save 3%"
