I adore Viz.
They once printed the finest letter ever penned.
Also, this advert for flat roof pubs will never not make me hoot.

I mean, the vast, vast majority of entertainment media is an act. Do you watch Top Gear and assume that everything they did happened organically?

English chap here: this looks like a fine idea. Nothing could go wrong.
- Comment on Why do people hate coldplay? 3 weeks ago:
God, I hate Kasabian. Shit thick music for drunks to yell along to after the football.
I saw them back before their first album came out, supporting the Von Bondies. They were fucking dreadful. A bunch of tracksuit wearing Ian Brown wannabies.
- Comment on Why do people hate coldplay? 3 weeks ago:
I have a space in my heart for their first four albums. They’re perfectly enjoyable slices of indie that somewhat stood above the landfill shit that was otherwise getting airplay (fuck you Razorlight. Fuck you Kasabian).
Its fair to say that they and I grew apart from then on, as Chris Martin became more about the celebrity than the honest music, but even then, I never had any real problem with them.
They headlined Glastonbury last year and were excellent. Made me go back and listen to some of the records I’d ignored, and found that they were still a perfectly fine band. Considerably more poppy than they were, but not cynically so, I didn’t think.
But I guess Martin comes across as a little too earnest, and his marriage to Paltrow a little too right-on, so the press kept digging in to them, as is their wont. That made people think it was popular to shit on them.
- Comment on Emma Watson banned from driving for speeding 4 weeks ago:
There’s a road going out of Southampton that’s 40, and has a camera about 6m before the point where it becomes 50. The 50 signs seem more prominent than the camera. I’ve always thought that was a bit cunty.

Duct tape the Thinkpad to the gennie and you’ve got a lovely, portable all-in-one.

You, The Master Driver, are amply equipped to decide what the true speed limit should be.

The beauty of this comment is that it could be in support of either position.

Do you win or lose if you get to eat the biscuit, or is it just a matter of perspective?

Yeah, I know, but that doesn’t lend itself to comments that get upvotes, and I’m a slag for it.

I end up dribbling because the lid gets in my way, but it’s fine because I’m helping to offset the pollution caused by a billionaire’s private jet.

You have to keep applying it. It’ll happen.
- Comment on Aging is fun 1 month ago:
I’m 44 and am really quite sick of having to be aware of drinking enough water.
Until just a few short years ago I could just crack on and not think about it. If my mouth was dry as Gandhi’s flip flops, I’d have a drink, otherwise I wouldn’t think about it.
Now I start to feel like shit, and can’t figure out why, until I remember that i’ve only had a point of water today and could probably stand to drink some more.
It’s bullshit.

- Comment on Correct Grindr Response 2 months ago:
My 2007 MacBook (white plastic) had a Core 2 Duo and 4GB RAM. For my first MacBook it was a perfectly usable laptop, but boy did it drop off a cliff fast. Tried putting Linux on it a while back, but it didn’t want to know.
Meanwhile, the 2011 MacBook I replaced it with (Core i7, 16GB RAM) is running Mint like a dream.

Also, HMU with Blue’s profile. I want to get some work out tips from him.

Which 4th May is this from? Because if it’s from 2007 then that’s a perfectly reasonable mid-range machine, but if it’s from last month then I really hope he’s only using it as a personal Linux box for tinkering.
