How would you feel if you invested years of your life: your time, energy, money, blood, sweat, and tears...only to give up and toss it away? If you continuously transfer your attention from one thing to another and dabble in several pursuits, you will fail and give up on your ambitions when things become tough. Isn't it life-changing to be able to finally focus on your most essential goals, work on them attentively on a daily basis, and see them through? You can break free from the vicious cycle. Everyone aspires to live their ideal life, but only a few actually do it.

The dangling testicles of fate have tea-bagged me yet again." Alice and Keren are coming to the end of the three-hour getting-ready ritual, in preparation for a rare big night out with old mates. Jon is trying his best to get out of it with the help of the not-so-bright Grub. As the countdown begins, the wine is drunk, the hair sprayed stiff, and Jon made to change his shirt, but who will make it out of the house in time?

"God, I need to be bereaved. I could do with losing a few pounds". Jon, Keren, and Grub accompany Alice to the funeral of a uni friend called Boris.

While Alice is climbing her career ladder, Jon is quite content on the bottom rung of his.

Jon declares he is not a loser and embarks on a mission to prove it by any means possible.

The Future Mother-in-Law Predicament: "Why did we have to let her in? Could we not have just posted her a duvet through the letter-box?" Alice’s Mum comes to stay and Jon is not happy. A house-proud woman with a bosom as pronounced as her carefully annunciated consonants, she cleans, criticises, pokes and potters until not even Alice can take it anymore, forcing her to call on reinforcements with equally masterful diction.

I remember when we used to have a life and not just a "Lovefilm" account" Jon and Alice’s latest dinner party attempt results in some guests glad to get away. Alice is nostalgic for the past, but realises some things have always been the same.
