Because if you don’t jump on these you end up with the Premier league, where according to manager’s post-game interviews in the last decade apparently no team has lost a game because they were “bad” or “not as good as the other side” but were, instead, jobbed by refs with a grudge against them. See entire careers of…

That’s the part that baffles me: if I found maggots in a restaurant I would alert someone to that fact. If, as a comment below rightly says, someone may have shoved food into the towel dispenser (and thus allowed maggots to breed there: I know this isn’t what happened here, but hypothetically) then the management…

I’m now trying to picture living under a bunch of Cards fans. All jorts hanging out to dry on the balcony, the smell of them recreating St. Louis style pizza by smearing Hunt’s ketchup on damp cardboard and blasting Kid Rock 24:7. I smell a sitcom: “Being Neighbours The RIGHT Way”

Aside from re-runs of the 66 series and the Burton movies, it was Judgement on Gotham by Wagner and Bisley where Judge Dredd and Batman bumped heads and unleashed a phenomenal cauldron of badassery. 

Amen. Up until 2016 that would describe Cubs fandom. Obviously substitute the Cardinals and their hideous fans for the Yankees but it all checks out, including various awful owners and total irrelevance on the field for far too long. Mate, when the good stuff happens it’ll feel extra good because of all the suffering…

You need to get that woman who drove up from Virginia and the woman who compared the Mets to jazz on the Deadcast. 

The word you’re looking for is “bogans”. Fucking Queensland, mate. 

I know that and you know that and I really, really hope that I’m wrong here

Chris, please change the headline to this and we can all just skip the internet for the rest of the day. 

No mention of Schur's greatest creation. Fire Joe Morgan? For shame...

She’s great... but she’s going to be destroyed by this. Look at the way the British Parliamentary Labour Party has already cast its own left-wing leadership (and the grassroots youth movement that has shifted it left of the Blairite “Centre”) as anti-semites, just because many of those people are critical of Israel.…

It’s also worth bearing in mind that a fair chunk of the ideas of eugenics and “racial hygiene” that the Nazis turned into their genocidal acts were imported from the good ol’ USA (Goddard, Black, Laughlin et al.).

HA! That’s exactly right... I did the whole shebang, duck confit, pork rind and all once and it got inhaled by my guests some of whom seemed slightly miffed that there wasn’t enough for a second helping. Luckily my knives weren’t to hand.... But I DID love making it. 

I do love that book. The introduction is hilarious and valuable and (outside of the cassoulet) there's nothing too intimidating for the amateur cook (and the only really difficult part is getting all the ingredients, even here in Europe). Might have to make the pot au feu really soon..

Quick, light the Burneko-signal...

I live 3500 miles away from this festival and I'm not sure that's far enough.

This sounds great in theory but considering how bloody salty PJs pizza already is, could actually be inedible.

Jesus God, that Craggs article... That grumpy SOB is a damn national treasure

Also note: no Random Capitalisation in the first tweet. Definitely not the tiny hands/brain of Trump at work there

I read the initial tweet in the Grauniad’s coverage and thought “Wow, that’s measured and statesmanlike: clearly Trump is still executive-timing out his bowels and some civil servant is holding the phone at a safe distance”. A few minutes later he’s not washed his tiny hands and has the phone back.
