Yeah but don’t you think Malcolm Tucker is dead sexy? He could give me a tongue-lashing any time.

She does? Amy Wine’ouse, that is. The things I learn on the hinternet.

Sorry you’re having such a bad week what with similes and metaphors and the like. Maybe next week will come up all allegorical.

This series has overused Malcolm, I’ll give you that, I think it’s been getting better and better each episode though… but I hope to god you’re not attacking Langham(’s comedy prowess).

roosta, they just highjacked the old saying there, replacing “wasp” with “Dot Cotton”, surely?

Flann, that was a pretty lame highjacking from your part, I have to say. One mention of soccer in two days?

Radge, I wouldn’t say you’re far wrong. Although, saying “I wouldn’t say” is a bit of a vague cop-out in its own right. Ah, well. It’s Monday morning.

‘Radge’ originated as a Scottish insult, but nobody ought to care about that. I’ve never seen ‘The Thick Of It,’ but did go and see ‘In The Loop’ which was nowhere near as brilliant as I was led to believe.

Everything’s shite since ‘Withnail and I’.

I watched an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm last night that confirmed for me its unparalleled genius (the one where he accidentally pisses on the picture of Jesus, leading some gullible Christians to think it’s weeping). Laugh out loud funny from start to finish.

Still, it didn’t long distract me from the titanic injustice of Wednesday night, when the Irish nation was wronged on a scale only known by native Americans, and possibly Aborigines.

Yeah, that’s right Sweary. I’m hijacking this article, kidnapping it, putting a hood over its head and bundling it off to soccer town. What are YOU going to do about it?

That is a rare and dangerous kind of logic there, Eolai.

I think you’re trying too hard. I’ve only ever seen 3 episodes and instantly thought it was so good that I wouldn’t watch any more.

Did much the same with Curbs – watched several episodes over 2 nights then decided it was perfect so haven’t been able to watch it since.
