Guess it makes sense that Morrissey has come out as part of the incel-right when The Smiths' genre is "I'm sad because my crush at school doesn't know I even exist"
"Long Chile" is a phrase that lives permanently near the front of my mind
Tbh I don't find this that concerning, it's just like a quick ad between overs in cricket.
The bigger threat is the godawful within-match ads that the Six Nations is trialling - easy to imagine similar adverts whilst football teams are preparing for corners (esp if Arsenal are playing)
A poll of Gen Alpha males says they agree with the statement "Boys are better than girls because they don't have cooties"
I would be interested in seeing the same poll across time (e.g. 10, 20 years ago)
Because tbh you'd kinda expect young people to have a fictional idea of marriage compared to those who are older
Great stuff. Used to be that you got a voucher for an actual book. Now the shops have jumped on it and use it to sell awful quality plastic costumes
When I was a kid I thought having Sky Sports was the height of luxury, because it had the Premier League, the most exciting league.
Now I have it (month pass for the T20 World Cup) and I don't think I've watched a single minute of the PL. I don't even bother to watch the highlights on BBC now.
Incredible that this finishes with "act your age"
Win probability shows Labour at virtually 100%
This was my win probability for Gorton and Denton ahead of the last General Election π¬
One of the biggest parts of growing up is realising your mother was right (Psyduck is the best PokΓ©mon)
I know footballers don't head the ball with their scalp, but part of me just feels like bald players head the ball harder.
Michael Owen scoring past a 13 year old, Big Nev watching on
Blades today #swfc
The Six Nations provides the perfect warm-up for the main event, the curling π΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώπ΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώπ΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ Ώ
Is it weird that I was wanting us to get relegated today? #swfc
Great to see GB's curlers really turn it on today, after getting far too much flak from folk who only watch the sport once every four years
Tbf wasn't it Canada who were caught using drones to spy on opponents in the women's football a few years ago?
Amazing how Scotland look like a different team when they get everything right rather than getting everything wrong #sixnations
Alan Partridge reacting to an Americanophile scouser
So many Brits talking about the American football
Incredible picture of Hammy and Bobby, they look like they're in a Broadway musical
A sad day for snooker indeed.

Also, he was done dirty by the lazy Mitchell & Webb snooker sketches
Really sad to hear about John Virgo. Big Break was my first introduction to snooker, and he always brought great insight and gravitas to his commentary work. For me, him and Dennis were the two commentators you wanted on the biggest moments.
Anyway, hope he gets to watch Match of the Day now.
No. I remember PES2008, it was photorealistic
My wife knows when Wednesday are playing because I get a BBC Sport notification and sigh
The difficulty will be finding a needlework class for small children
Having seen a children's dance class on a Friday, my new goal is to sign the kids up for classes such that I can remember where they're going based on the undeniable banger by The Darkness, Friday Night
These things make my skin crawl and blood boil. There are several on my street alone, and the tops of their bonnets are higher than both my kids' heads. Their mere existence on UK roads is a failure of the law to set reasonable maxima on car dimensions.
I say this every year, but "chieftain of the pudding race" is unironically my favourite line of poetry. #BurnsNight
Stephen now has to choose whether he would like Β£45k or Β£90k. Tough call. #TheTraitors
