And Detroit Rock City (the movie) is right up there with Spinal Tap as far as rock-themed movies go.

There was a Google exec being interviewed by British MPs today and he claimed he couldn’t remember how much he earns. But hey, try and explain to politicians that the trickle-down economy isn’t working and they’ll still draw a similar kind of blank.

Never be clever... there’s a rock song by that title... Herman Brood I think.

Is the photograph with the article here the actual cover photo? Because the bum fluff facial hair is something I’d expect from middle/high schoolers, and he’s older than that, isn’t he? Or perhaps he’s just missed out on too much of that aspect of life to be able to be ‘normal’ by non-famous mere mortals’ standards?…

I get it, Jaden, we bury each poor person under a tonne of left-over food and that’s it, we’ve rid the world of its overpopulation – that’s what you mean, right?

I feel like popping champagne yet again to celebrate my hysterectomy.

If Kanye had an equivalent to Key & Peele’s Obama/Luther sketch, Kanye’s translator would have tweeted “I WILL TWEET ANYTHING FOR ATTENTION IN THE RUN-UP TO MY ALBUM RELEASE”

Fine, I’ll bite. I know it’s really cool to hate on Coldplay right now, but I’m old anyway so I don’t care about my lack of coolness. However much I dislike most of Coldplay’s music, I cannot label it as “bad”; it’s just not to my taste. “Bad” music is when I can’t hear a natural vocal or an actual musical instrument…

*receiving a more (no idea why I mixed up those words)

I’m trying really hard to think of a receiving more awkward gift than arse cream...

But because I’m a cynical arsehole, I now seriously don’t know whether to accept this as genuine concern for the cause on Beyonce’s part or whether she’s adopted the cause as part of her marketing strategy. I’m sorry, but sometimes I just do not know who or what to believe anymore.

A few weeks ago I was on a British Airways flight from Dublin to London, temperatures in both cities around freezing point. All cabin crew (which included two females) were in trousers and they looked fabulous; they were a really nice cut trousers (kind of in-between straight cut and boot cut), looked more comfortable…

...and have brought a cloud of shame...

Kerry Washington can dress in the proverbial garbage bag and still look stunning, but I agree her eyes convey unhappiness and I want to make her a cup of tea and hug her.

According to reports, O’Kroley never attempted the suicide but did attempt to kill the police officer who came to arrest him.

But “I could always trust Ted, he was always very responsible, as 18-year-olds go.”

On one occasion my flight got cancelled and I was booked into one of those middle seats on a later flight, only to be met with fierce protestations from the elder of the two ladies in the row, who was seated in the window seat. She furiously turned on me – no, I couldn’t sit there, she’d bought and paid for three…

Intelligence wasn’t something I was thinking of; it was more like, if life hands you plenty of opportunity to make something of yourself, you may be less likely to give in to whatever evil you have inside yourself and do horrible things...? Or perhaps that’s just me being naive...
