I'm the new Patrick Moore (I don't care about stars but I'm a fascist with a xylophone)
Yessssssssssss. DM me on here or X dot com (the everything app), I should be available at any point
Phil McNulty continues to innovate in ways linguists could never have imagined possible. That unnecessary switch from the present to the past tense 🧑🍳👌
I like the long throws, but the aimless punts upfield are crap
A testament to Mr Benham's must-watch charisma that I was able to sit through 45 minutes of that interviewer bloke
I doubt even he could have conjured up a sense of melancholy like this
Wonderful example of vernacular English public footpath signage. A lucky walker might also stumble across a common or garden farm dog left off the leash to welcome visitors with a friendly snarl
The last thing a zookeeper wants to see happening at dinnertime
Albert Angelo does it big time, so does Christie Malry I think. Been years since I read either but the latter in particular is great (but probably not on the Unfortunates level)
I liked it when BS Johnson did it but not sure whether that's because he is better at it (certainly funnier) or it just seemed more interesting to a teenage reader. The good bits of Lanark are really good tbf, not that I can specifically remember them
Yes this was exactly my view. I don't think all the Unthank bits are bad, some are excellent, but it's all very "yeah I get it, cheers". And yes the 'epilogue' with the author appearing, tiresome and surely very old hat as a concept when it was published
I'd suggest you come for a pint in the Upper Calder Valley sometime, but I appreciate that might also be the exact opposite of what you're hoping to achieve
I think noted literary critic pickyouredge from twitter got it right when he said there's some of the best writing you'll ever see, and a load of absolute guff about dragons
Which Gen Z starlet is going to kickstart a Momus revival?
Livvy Rod should have done book of love in her Avril Lavigne pop punk mode imo
'Graveturner' does sound like the name of a Champion Beer of Britain. "Brewed with enough hops to wake the dead" etc
Very good
Was told earlier about one local school that has told children to dress up as an adjective! Just teach my children thanks!
Happy World Book Day Eve to all who suffer it
Well I'm being made redundant and replaced by copilot this month so jot that down
(I've got another job lined up, before you feel guilty)
It gets turned back into gas when we need to use it anyway, so liquefaction just seems like a massive waste of time in the first place. Get rid!
Forgot what it's like to be in the mental state of having one month left in a job. Collapsing like an Alan Curbishley team after hitting 40 points
Final pivot: BrewDog ‘Equity for Punks’. I traded my last liquid cash for a revolution. 🤘
Asset: Punk Equity
Status: 100% drawdown
Perk: 5% off a £7 pint
I’m now at $0.00—completely unburdened by capital. I’m leaner, hungrier, and scouting my next "All-In." Who’s hiring? 🧱🔥 #Punks
Post-Index, I evolved. I took my remaining capital and "aped" into John Terry’s Ape Kids Club. 🖼️
Strategy: High-conviction JPEGs
Outcome: Floor price hit zero
Win: Networking in the Discord trenches
While you chased "value," I chased vision. Diamond hands. 💎 #Web3 #NFT
Most see a collapse; I see a tuition fee. I moved my life savings into Football Index to disrupt the transfer market. 📈
Asset: Elite player futures
Result: Total liquidation
ROI: 1000% increase in mental grit
I didn't lose; I "de-risked" my comfort zone. 🚀 #Hustle
10 teams in my league and the scrabbling around for forwards in particular is terrible. Had to autodraft at the start of this season so will blame it all on that
Great to see another FPL Draft aficionado
Very good album
