Some Random Bloke

No need for rehearsals

I've always regarded Farridge as Sir Oswald to Trump's Adolf, but 'Tribute act' is just the perfect description.

I want to join the Jeff fan club 🐈‍⬛

Does the US gov't shutdown include DT's cakehole? And if not, surely it should? #give_us_all_a_rest

Reform UK's ex-Wales leader Nathan Gill admits pro-Russia bribery Nathan Gill admits eight charges of bribery while being a Member of the European Parliament.

Nathan Gill is no fringe politician.

He was the leader of the Reform Party and before that UKIP in Wales.

A Brexit Party MEP.

A friend and ally of Nigel Farage, who in 2016 called him:

"terrific," and "as honest as the day is long."

This is a MASSIVE story

The really worrying thing is he's *nearly* right. Thalidomide was a very useful drug until the horrifying effects in one particular usage came to light. That's why Sir Oswald Farage is, in his own way, even more dangerous than Fantasy-land Trump.
If Farage told me the sun had risen I'd go and check.

I'm with whoever said "As good as the Beatles? They're not even as good as the Rutles"
Even the name isn't original - there have been at least two other groups called that.

One of them is in a box in my loft. I don't need it out: I can still sing it 🥴

Possibly the last tine he said anything truthful?

- first thing I thought of, too

A young man wearing a three lions baseball cap: who could have expected such sense?

It's like being cool - if you have to try, you ain't got it. (Says somebody who long ago gave up trying to be either)

In Germany, scientists have made a breakthrough in treating Parkinson’s by implanting a chip in the brain that sends precise signals to restore movement. A stunning leap in neuroscience—witness the power of innovation and the beauty of science in action.

Perspective.

I tried to, but ended up in a sort of trance.

Gawsh - I remember buying it. Still have it.

Grandiloquent Word of the Day logo - Sepia-toned graphic with a baroque Victorian typeface and a pen-and-ink illustration of a person holding a quockerwodger up with the left hand while pulling the string at the bottom with the right hand.

Quockerwodger [KWAH-ker-wah-jher]
(n.)
1. A toy which moves and dances about when a string is pulled.
2. A politician who is bought off by corporations or other entities.

Used in a sentence:
“The shameless arts of the sycophant are not monopolized by Mr. Quocker-wodger and his congeners.”

To elaborate on the last point: they opened with a cover of 'Good To Be Back'.
Leaving aside the issue of who the original was by - and I hope he gets no royalties from the use of it - the song is a dumb repetitive football chant that the Burnage Yobs managed to turn into a plodding lifeless drone.

PR triumph: Oasis are back.

Management triumph: the brothers haven't had a punch-up on stage. Yet.

Musical fail: they're still not as good as The Rutles.

Utterly brilliant. Start with The Blade Itself and read them in order.

When my eldest was 12 or so I went to collect him from a youth club, he was standing in the doorway with his friend Laura who said "who's this arriving? Oh it's just some random bloke". To which Simon had to say "actually, that's my Dad"... they're now in their thirties and still friends 😀

No, Donald, Vladimir hasn't 'gone crazy': he's just ignoring you, and that's what you really don't like, isn't it?

Yes, Nigel...as does my contempt for hypocrites like you.

I'd pity his poor deluded mind...if he weren't so damned dangerous.

He's playing all the right notes...

Mark Carney is the new leader of the free world.

A random thought I had overnight: the felon plays golf twice a week, right? And that costs the US taxpayer $3 million each time? That money is probably Secret Service overtime, helicopters, etc. But, I expect felon has exclusive use of the course, yes? At great cost? So - Who Owns The Courses?
