George celebrating the fact that he has very nice hair, by wearing his favourite FRANCE t-shirt

George, wondering if Olivia - who has asked him if tonight he can refrain from wearing his FRANCE t-shirt for once - has spotted the fact that he is sneakily wearing his FRANCE t-shirt under his jacket

George, having just been for a perm and a catch-up with Eric Idle, thinking about how envious Eric must be of his FRANCE t-shirt

French Detective: You’re under arrest

That's actually a lie.

It's not exactly new.

Well, this version is. It's a repost of an old video I really like. Partly because I just wanted to share it again and partly because I haven't had time to assemble a new YouTube offering, yet.

There's a 90% correlation between being born and parents who took paracetamol while pregnant.

Here's the thing, though: there would be at least a 90% correlation between babies with autism and people who took paracetamol while pregnant because being pregnant fucking hurts and paracetamol is the only pain killer you can take. These fuckers just want women to be in pain.
