    Oh I’m right with you on that. It is going to freak the shit out of me but I NEED to watch this!

    Who are you referring to as a ‘man-baby troll’ here? If you mean me, then you are way off the mark in more ways than I can count - firstly, I’m a) not a ‘man’, b) I’m an educated female atheist who chooses to make decisions about the things I agree and disagree with by first learning about them, c) I firmly believe…

    Unfortunately IS have come forward and claimed responsibility - whether it is accurate or not, this will further fuel the flames of islamophobia.

    My sentiments exactly.

    I know, right? It’s fucking nuts! There is no current official confirmation that the perpetrator is a radicalised muslim. They may or may not be, but currently there is no official word and people are taking to twitter screaming ‘kill all muslims’ it’s a mess! The terrorist might be a fucking unaffiliated whackjob, or…

    Don’t permit him to hug you at all? Load yourself up with gear and make it impossible to be hugged? Say ‘Hi’ and busy yourself with other things and ignore the hugging? Or if he comes at you for a hug step back and say ‘I’m good, no need for hugs’ in a light, jokey way? Maybe?

    Exactly - there is nothing more gratifying for successful academics than to be addressed by an eminent member of their field or by a leader of their institution. It lends validation and gravitas to the proceedings that ‘celebrity’ appearances simply do not.

    I’m not a zoologist or any kind of expert, so I can’t comment on the intention of the specific behaviour, but if, say, a large dog - a Great Dane, St Bernard or Newfoundland lunged forward at a child then retreated, you’d move the fuck away, right? Whether or not the animal was behaving ‘aggressively’, large dogs are…

    You cannot judge ANYTHING by the opinions of Russell Brand tbh....

    I know. Me too :-(

    Thank fuck the date was in a public place is all I can say...

    I should think he needs to learn ‘stalking’, ‘kidnapping’ and ‘sociopath’ first...

    It’s not the CONTENT of the message that makes it harassment, but the fact that he found her family members’ phone numbers and messaged them all. Who seriously expects someone to just randomly give their relatives’ address to someone they don’t know who just sends them a text?

    Ultimate example of self-entitled douche-baggery?

    I thought there was some overt ‘Cate Blanchett’ going on myself...

    Amen! “Spreadsheets, Motherfuckers!” pretty much sums up my job.

    Which ARGUABLY could include Northern Ireland, but in reality is basically the middle east.

    I looked for it too and couldn’t see it. But then the picture was a poor resolution. Other versions out there might be better?

    Nope. Nope, Nope, Nope-ity Nope. I’m going to PRETEND that is a picture of ‘Hastings’ and that David Suchet is going to pop up to reprise the role one more time. La La La *fingers in ears* not listening.
