There is no-one on this good earth more vacuous and less worthy of engaged comment than a declared 'provocateur'. A cultural housefly.
Aww, this just came up on the FB memories thing. Me and the OH at Les Alyscamps in Arles, ten years ago. What always gets me about Van Gogh is that it was really not long ago that he was painting. My grandma was born before this one was done.
Brachiosaurus stag nights were a blast.

I want to go back to a country where people looked out for each other, you could leave your door open, and everyone knew right from wrong. That's why I'm voting for the sleaziest collection of corrupt f***ers the world has ever seen to do that for me.
It'd be nice to go back to moaning about the rain for a bit instead.
UEFA has announced they will boycott the World Cup. Italy has announced they’ll extend their boycott for another four years.

My OH is currently emailing me excerpts from a Mail article entitled: "The dark side of Rainbow: How the squeaky clean kids' show was plagued with backstage drama - including heavy-drinking, innuendo, sexism and jealousy over puppets" I've got to say - it's pure, pure gold...

Nanoraptor@nanoraptor.danamania.com · 2w agoYou suddenly get a narrator describing your life and there’s no way to turn it off - everyone can hear it. While shopping, at work, at home, with friends - the voice narrating your every move goes on. Who do you hope is the voice of this narrator?
Meanwhile, the hounds of hell have been locked, oiled, and covered in a rust-proof paint.
