- Comment on Who will be the next James Bond? Amazon's tough 007 decision 5 weeks ago:
I don’t hate the guy or anything, I just find his deadpan delivery a little dull and don’t understand why he gets as much work as he does.

Of course Thickie Hawking would say that ~Albert Einstein
- Comment on Who will be the next James Bond? Amazon's tough 007 decision 5 weeks ago:
It’ll be fucking Romesh Ranganathan, won’t it, because everything made at the moment has to have him in it.
- Comment on Amazon is changing what is written in books 1 month ago:
I mean it’s not an easy question to answer is it? How is my ideological position that ‘nigger’ is not acceptable and removing it makes the book suitable for modern readers any different from someone else’s ideological position that, e.g., ‘transgender’ is not acceptable and removing it makes whatever book suitable for modern readers?
- Comment on Amazon is changing what is written in books 1 month ago:
A punchier example would be And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie - the best selling murder mystery of all time - which was first published as Ten Little Niggers

He looks like he’d give good hugs.
- Comment on Driver caught doing 122mph on 30mph road as UK’s shocking speed records revealed 1 month ago:
Those are rookie numbers. 764 mph in a 30mph zone is where it’s at nowadays.
- Comment on Why are headhunters or recruiters so laser focused on getting my resume? 1 month ago:
I don’t have a huge amount of respect for recruiters having been involved with them on both sides of hiring process.
It often feels like they treat it like a numbers game - minimise effort by just throwing enough resumes at a job and hope one will stick then earn your cut. Thats going to earn them more than seriously trying to match candidates with jobs.

- Comment on Wimbledon school crash: Woman rearrested over deaths of two girls 2 months ago:
Hmm. I was present when a friend discovered he had epilepsy when he had his first seizure. It was life-changingly awful for him. He had to give up his university course (chemical engineering IIRC), his planned vocation, and - amongst other things - his driving license.
If this is a genuine case then I really feel for Claire Freemantle, 48. She’s discovered she’s epileptic, has accidentally killed two children, and now it is being implied she did it on purpose.
- Comment on Gig economy firms warned by UK government they may be operating illegally 2 months ago:
Good. Almost all ‘disrupters’ are basically about sidestepping regulations which is what allows them to undercut legitimate companies which are compliant.
- Comment on Axel Rudakubana: 'Evil' Southport killer jailed for minimum 52 years 2 months ago:
Dude’s 18 now so this means he’ll be in prison until he’s 70. At least.
And no, absolutely no death penalty until the justice system can be proven to be completely flawless and incapable of convicting an innocent. And even then I’d say no.

Google search is an absolute bag of spanner’s now.
- Comment on Microsoft Bing is trying to spoof Google UI when people search Google.com 2 months ago:
Is Google really as shit as Bing? I had to Ask Jeeves to confirm that.
- Comment on Elon Musk wants the U.S. to “Liberate the people Britain from their tyrannical government” 2 months ago:
Oi! That’s the UK City of Culture 2025 you’re talking about!
“Even reading the local newspaper, some of the headlines can be very upbeat, and beneath it are just loads of comments that, ‘This is a disaster, it’ll just never work, Bradford is doomed’.”
- Comment on Elon Musk wants the U.S. to “Liberate the people Britain from their tyrannical government” 2 months ago:
They’re welcome to Luton, to be honest.
- Comment on FTSE 100 bosses make more money in 2025 by noon today than average worker in a year 2 months ago:
I can feel it trickling down already! Like a golden dribble but, no, quicker than a dribble. More like a shower.

- Comment on Yo, Duplo, what you doing on the 24th? 3 months ago:
My kids do the same - they ask for Lego Minecraft sets or Lego Ninjago sets or whatever, build them and stick them on the shelf. They’re horrified by my suggestion that they tear them down and build other random things with the bits. And, of course, a lot of the bits nowadays are so specialized that they have limited uses. When I was a kid most of my lego was just standard blocks.
