Ye Olde Bemus'd Ghost - you raise false hope that this is an elaborate viral marketing scheme for the Arrested Development movie.

The Bunk
just a humble motherfucker with a big ass dick. Might start off as one of the less prominent characters in Season 1, but really comes into his own in seasons 3 and 4. His scene with Omar on the bench - "makes me sick motherfucker how far we done fell" - is one of the best in all five seasons.

the most fun you'll have watching The Corner is "spot The Wire character". Otherwise its unrelentingly grim. Very good - but definitely short on chuckles.

for me it was Brother Mouzone in season 2 and the way Frank Sobotka's storyline is "resolved" which raised the show into another realm - a level it stayed at throughout seasons 3 and 4. I love Frank Sobotka, one of The Wire's underappreciated characters. He had some great speeches - about how they used to "build…

adjourn your asses

he returns at the start of season 2 as one of the humps Valchek sends to the detail. He re-appears in Series 5 working in evidence control - "it beats working".

I went for a Wire pilgrimage last year - went to City Hall, Werners (where Carcetti likes to eat), Kavanaugh's, the waterfront. Also wasn't brave enough to travel into the west side row homes.

Salford Lad's Club is like a sports place where people can play pool/snooker/badminton/do boxing. I think it was originally built for working class lads to get some exercise at a time when Salford would have been very industialized and smoggy. They are constantly fighting to keep it open these days as people tend to…

I also made a pilgrimage to the Ghostbusters fire station. They have the Ghosbusters 2 sign hanging on the wall inside.

theres a great book by Julian Barnes called "Arthur & George" which is a fictionalised account of a real incident where Arthur Conan Doyle helped a guy who had been wrongfully imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit. The guy was really a bit of a genius.

when I was working in NYC I made a little pilgrimage up to the Seinfeld diner a.k.a. Tom's Restaurant a.k.a. "Tom's Diner" (2 pop culture references in one). Obviously it looks totally different inside but gotta say the food was great. A couple of weeks later on New Year Day I took a walk across Brooklyn Bridge and…

douche? no sir - Williams is the dictionary definition of the word "cunt"

I thought it was "sooooooo open the door"
I don't speak fucking Spanish

OK this is just ridiculous
I expected to see Primal Scream's XTRMNTR in the top 50, and when it wasn't I reasoned it at least would have to get a mention in this section - but no!

"collateral poonage from a foo fighters concert"

I think their first album is their best.
The weird things is - I saw them live a couple of years ago around the time of In Your Honor and everyone seemed to know the words to the songs from that album, and then they introduced I think "This Is A Call" saying "This ones from our first album" and I was the only person…

considered great British solo acts:

Foo Fighters > Nirvana

Cliff Richards has always been considered the British Elvis. Unfortunately he didn't follow Elvis' career trajectory and die in the 70's. Instead he went on to record the Lords Prayer to the tune of Auld Lang Syne. And this went to no. 1 in the UK charts.

because how much health care you receive shouldn't be based on how much money you have. Should the fire brigade only put out fires in rich people's houses? Should the police only investigate your wife's murder if you've got a six figure salary?
Receiving treatment if you are ill is a basic human right. Step into the…
