Ho hum

Random grab bag of thoughts and what have you from the last week or so.

Anthony Worrall Thompson. Anthony Worrall Thompson. Anthony. Worrall. Thompson. I'm writing his name three times in order to fix his horrible orc-like face in my memory, and what has the troll-featured cuntbubble done to attracts my ire? Why, suggesting that the minimum wage by abolished. And why should the minimum wage, that succour to nameless millions balancing precariously above the poverty line, be abolished? Because it would make waiting on staff work harder for tips. Anthony Worrall Thompson. Drink it in. Anthony. Worrall. Thompson (this, incidentally, is the same man who suggests turning up to a fully booked restaurant and insisting that you booked, because they'll have to let you in, he is a pox on humanity, a boil on the face of sweet mother earth, an enormous worm ridden shit in your chardonnay, to paraphrase the tone-deaf man's Tasmin Archer, Alanis Morrissette).

Ormskirk's getting more dangerous! After the "Karaoke Kicking" incident of a couple of weeks back last weeks Advertiser headline was "Blood on the Bones" the bones, in this case, being dominoes, so not as exciting as the headline would lead you to believe. It was a fight over a game of dominoes. Oh Ormskirk. Worth noting, however, that the chap whose blood was spilt was also recently in the paper accused of illegal campaigning in the SU presidency race. Publicity hungry little imp just can't stay out of the news.

Anthony Worrall Thompson. He did that cake with the Snickers bars didn't he? How could that possibly be any good? Wanker. Copper-bottomed wanker.

You make the decision to get married, you make the decision to buy a house, and all of a sudden you have to buy sofas. Why did this never occur to me before? Furniture always just sort of happened.

Dear Duncan Fletcher. Please drop Geraint Jones. A joke's a joke but it's getting a bit much now.

Day something or other in the big brother house, and still I manage to avoid it.

Madonna on a crucifix. Has she gone too far? Asks the Daily Mail today. No. Next question.

Anthony. Worrall. Thompson. Have you seen that thing he does with his hands at the end of saturday kitchen if he wins the vote? This little self deprecating gesture which is anything but. It says I knew I would win because I'm Anthony Worrall Thompson, you're a gay australian and you're a woman. I, however, am Anthony Worrall Thompson. And don't get me started on that pisspoor excuse for a wine expert, you know the one. Jamie Oliver's mate. That's right. I'm saving up a bucketload of piss and hatred for that clueless, fruit-fixated berk. No, the wine guy, not Jamie Oliver. Though now I come to think of it...

Inedible

"He says it's inedible" said my front of house manager, as she laid the half-eaten fish and chips in front of me, and instantly I relaxed.  Clearly, I observed, it was edible to some degree. I comped it, because I can't be arsed arguing the toss, and I want to make my front of house's lives as simple as possible. The haddock had been delivered that morning. The fryers had been cleaned that morning. The batter had been made that morning (and it's very good batter, ask me nicely and I'll give you the recipe some time). The fish and chips was identical to the other 27 portions I'd sent out on that lunch service, all of which had come back more or less hoovered up, we have have a (justified, if I do say so myself) very good reputation for our chips. But it was, apparently, "inedible". When it comes to complaints, less is more. If you use a hyperbolic word like that, I'll switch off, you've marked yourself as a rube, a chump, I'm not g...

Chop chop

I was completely ignorant of the fuss over the edited Trump speech in an edition of Panorama until, one moment later, I wasn't. And the reasons for my ignorance are instructive. I had no idea that the story was even brewing until the surprise Sunday night news of the resignations of Tom Davie and Deborah Turness. As I'm sure you are by now aware, this was occasioned by a clumsy edit in an old edition of Panorama, which has already been on the iplayer for a year. It's a non-story. Except people decided to make it a story. The reason I'd heard nothing of it until the resignations was that I'm not on X, where, apparently, it was all the media classes had been talking about for a week. It was an obsession of the unholy right-wing trifecta of the Mail, Telegraph and Times (who, given that they sent a bloke just last week to interview the wrong Bill di Blasio, you'd think would wind their necks in over factual inacccuracy). It was big news on GB news, all self-contain...

Creepy old men

I note, somewhat wearily, that creepy old men are back in the news, being creepy. Creepy old men, and their apologists and enablers, who argue that their creepiness is somehow the natural order of things. Old men would have you believe that it is difficult to not be a creepy old man. That it is a task of epic proportions. It is not that difficult. It is a matter of intention. As yet more of the grimness of Epstein unfolds, creepy old men are, sadly, a flaccid topic once again. Whether it be pursuing students thirty years their junior, or simply not asking too many questions about the background of the probably legal young woman who you've just been introduced to by your good pal Jeff. To be clear, I am not referring to criminal creepy old men, the ones who actually committed statutory rape, the ones who fucked trafficked hirls. That is not something which is allowed to get away merely with the contempt of the observer.  That deserves prison.  No , I'm referring to the hinterla...
