It's probably a good thing I was too scared as a kid to watch Full Circle and never found out till now how rubbish it was. It might have put me off watching the good stuff that followed.
Got me whistling it now.
British public: we don't think Trump's scattergun, petulant, aimless bombing of Iran is a good idea & we shouldn't join in
Politicians: wrong
Public: It would be nice to see a chaffinch on a tenner
Politicians: WRONG!
Their names always make me smile, too.
That's one of the best.
we now have an answer to “what if caligula had dementia?”
Give the people what they want.
Funny is back.
BE FUNNY OR DIE will rise again.
E-book and audiobook available now…
New paperback edition next year.
What did e.g. backing up America in the Iraq War gain Britain? Well, it got Tony Blair personally a lot of photo ops with George Bush II plus a standing ovation from Congress, and that gave him an amazing platform for his post-politics career. And (checks notes) and, uh (flipping pages) and
The very idea of habituating people into clicking links in texts is appalling. I wrote to my parents' GP explaining the risks they were exposing their patients to by doing so and they quietly decided to let them keep calling in.
They also saw what happened when they let Scotland have it. The reaction to Tony's Iraq jollies wiped them out for decades.
Carcer is perfection. Smiling, chummy, eternally guiltless and irredeembably evil. Pure public schoolboy vibes.
And OMFG I paused to see if there was anything on the envelope from Canada and noticed Palin's name, which I must have missed in the credits, is Brian. Brian and Michael. youtu.be/S7DCQiiUEb0?...
Except to say that the set designers, Crook and the actors must have loved working on the angular, sterile neighbours' house, laughing themselves stupid trying to work out exactly where to put the hideous photos and hands-free protein shake dispenser.
Sounds like some bastard is trying to steal that bloody sythesiser.

Daily mail article saying the Harry Potter series will be the steaming event of the decade
Lovely typo in a Harry Potter TV show article.
I've said it before that, when I saw it in the cinema, at the end when even I was getting a little teary, a child piped up behind me saying "mummy, why is she sad?" and all she got in reply was a strangled wailing sob.
don’t cancel me for saying this but
Nobody should be assaulted in prison. Not even Harvey Weinstein
Listen listen!
The point of rights isn’t to protect people who we like. The main point of rights is to protect people who we don’t like from our own worst instincts
They absolutely would if they were in charge again and just started saying OK and nodding along with Westminster. That sort of devolution is fine and dandy.
I hadn't realised that O'Hagan (who definitely voted No) had come round to reason enough for a berk like Torrance to get riled. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Sign in window reads “Sorry we are closed today due to short people. We will be back on Wednesday.”
Randy Newman: *nods approvingly*
I had never even noticed that he's one of "us" because his voice grates so hard I'd never taken enough time listening to it to parse his accent. I just assumed he was an Edinburgh Academy boy or something.
Waiiit, are you telling me they never intended to even build the monorail?
There are probably still a few old cranks lurking on the fringes but Greens onhere and people I've met IRL all tend to be well-educated and informed on politics, economics, all sorts of areas, when Labour sensibles are often just briefcase career dimwits who can parrot well lines they don't believe.
Yet again tapping the sign that says it isn't Anglophobia, that's not as thing, it's just that you're a bellend who happens to have an English accent.
I don't know, we've had basically every other kind of grasp on politics/policy have a go at governing and it's utterly ruined this country. So maybe it's about time someone who was just kind of normal had a go?
“We’re in uncharted territory” / “It is not uncharted, you ignored the chart” strikes again
