Everything about Trump is vulgar - his manner, his language, his taste, his lack of any cultural interests, his morals..
Everything.

Before then, I just pointed at shiny things in the Argos catalogue.

I might have already told you about the person who tried for months to push the Harry Potter books on to me, insisting they would "get me into reading". I already had very full bookshelves and I was 27.

The idea that no one walks around the West End after nine pm is just absolute hokum.

My 85 year-old mother regularly wanders around the West End post theatre.

why is the president the only person testing the limits of his power? everyone should see what they can get away with. what if zookeepers gave helicopters to gorillas? nobody has tried this

It's quite reassuring to think that Skynet will be so busy producing videos of destroyed terminators being led up a golden staircase by a T-1000 Jesus that they'll forget to end the human race.

I shouldn't have expected any better but Facebook has a *lot* of particularly mawkish AI videos about Diogo Jota.

Really can't get worked up about any event I am in no way obliged to attend or watch on TV.

Just for once I would like to read a *popular* opinion about Glastonbury.

Yeah, had a similar realisation in my 30s and acted, not by telling everyone to fuck off, but simply saying "Nah, I'm not doing this" and walking away from it all far more often than I had previously done. As I approach 50, I am constantly relieved that I made this choice.

Serious question. A friend of mine is very poorly and doesn’t have long left to live. Does anyone have the ability to put me in touch with Simon Pegg - yes that one - as I know she’d love to receive a message from him

Don’t send me an unsolicited picture of your peewee cocktapus unless you want me to…
A: find your mom’s Facebook
B: find a picture she uploaded of you reminiscing about what a nice young man you were
C: badly photoshop that into a locket
D: convince you I’m your daughter.

Happy Father’s Day Daddy.

I travelled from Chichester to Glenrothes today on public transport without a single delay on any train or bus. On a Sunday. I'm happy about it but that's wild.

honestly infuriating to learn that brian wilson was only 82. you're telling me my grandpa had a ten year head start and still couldn't write pet sounds?

Gutted about Brian Wilson. One of my musical heroes, how sad to know that he’s gone.

Back in 1993ish my parents went on GMTV and when they got into a lift Brian was there - my Dad had no idea who he was and amiably said, β€˜Hi, you alright?’ to which Brian loudly exclaimed, β€˜Yes - I’m a Beach Boy!’

It’s Gene Wilder’s birthday.
Wilder accidentally stabbing himself in the leg in Young Frankenstein is comedy gold.
The man could go big & broad but I loved when he underplayed it.
That slow crossing of the leg, & raising his hand to his mouth…

David Beckham has received a knighthood for scoring twice against East Fife in Jimmy Bonthrone's testimonial match at Bayview in 1995.

I've seen more dignified squabbles on the last bus to Glenrothes when the Links Market is on.
