Sarah Palin, laughing as a radio shock-jock calls her cancer-surviving colleague a bitch and a cancer:
I know this is more or less irrelevant to most readers, but if you’re USA-an or a blogger then it’s probably worth forwarding to wavering Hillary-ites or putting the video up to increase the chance of someone forwarding it to wavering Hillary-ites…

I felt sad about the death of Geoffrey Perkins, creator of Mornington Crescent, first producer of the Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, writer for Harry Enfield when he was funny, first producer of Father Ted, and all-round excellent comedy man.
Then, I read this paragraph of the poor man’s obit:
His credits as executive producer at the BBC included [...] My Hero, 2 Pints of Lager [... and] he also co-produced both series of Ben Elton’s The Thin Blue Line.
The tribunal at Nuremburg was willing to accept that Albert Speer was a misguided idiot who – despite being a good man of amazing accomplishments – blinded himself to the evil that he worked to accomplish. On the same grounds, I’m willing to pray for the soul of Mr Perkins.
But I hope there’s at least a fucking purgatory. And that they show non-stop fucking BBC3…

Here is a dog with tits:
The picture in question was photoshopped by some bloke for a laugh. However, the dog’s unbelievable wanker of an owner managed to track it down, threaten to sue the photoshopper for infringing his copyright, and successfully got his blog taken down from Wordpress.
So the only possible retaliation is for everyone in the entire world to save, post, pass on and generally disseminate the dog-with-tits picture. I’ve done my bit; now it’s up to you…

If you think that sending someone to jail for killing a fucking seagull is a proportionate and sensible decision, then you’re a stupid cunt.
This blog salutes seagull kickers Paul Cheetham and Jamie Griffiths; should either of you happen to find this post, I’ll happily buy you a pint when you get out – just leave a comment. Hell, I’ll even make it two pints, as long as your first act is to replicate the kicking-to-death action on chairman of the bench and despicable bastard Ken Allitt.
(for the avoidance of doubt, this blog’s position on animal cruelty is roughly the same as its position on table cruelty: i.e. only somebody certifiably insane could believe that such a thing existed. Actually, that’s not quite fair – the reason gullible idiots think animal cruelty is a real thing is because animals look a bit like people, so out of fairness I’ll compare it to mannequin cruelty…)

THOU SHALT NOT PICK FIGHTS THOU CAN NOT POSSIBLY WIN is a fundamental precept one needs to appreciate before any thrilling arguments about how things ought to be, because if your wrong about those noble thing you’re just wrong! wrong! wrong!; but if you’re wrong on the fundamentals you are (right! / wrong!) (x3) AND you have a huge boot jammed up your ass, which is arguably more significant, especially for your ass.
Also, can all the gibbering “oh noes! new Evil Empire” lunatics (notably this lot, unsurprisingly enough [*]) note that Russia is pulling its troops out of the border bits of Georgia that they briefly occupied, and that the temporary occupation of proper Georgian territory was driven by the fact that it was a tactical necessity rather than Evil Sinister Machinations.
[*] see, I completely appreciate that the EU is full of corrupt idiots and wastes large amounts of money. I suspect that its existence and our membership are nonetheless positive in aggregate – but even if they weren’t, the fact that the people who oppose it subscribe to more or less every other cretinous political conspiracy theory going (for fuck’s sake, how double-standards-tastic do you have to be to actively support Israel’s invasion of Lebanon and still think that Russia’s actions this week are unspeakably evil?)…

All of London should be pedestrianised, and every cunt who drives in London should have their car crushed whilst they’re inside it. There is no need for anyone to drive a car in London (a van, yes; a bus, yes; a car, no) – anyone who claims otherwise is an ignorant lazy stupid liar who deserves to die.
If someone gives me that cunt Johnson’s head on a platter, I’ll pay them £5000.

The Bystander wins a millon awards for this exchange.
Idiot pro-Guantanamo commenter:
You are an anal-retentive little dweeb whose wish to control has been capped at being just a useless bl**dy magistrate – rather than a maker and shaker on the global stage. Out of sheer curiosity – what is your normal “day job”?

Since Decent-ists like to demand that everybody condemns everything, I thorougly condemn Georgia’s occupation of Ossetia, and Russia’s invasion thereof.
If either of said acts were being done in the name of the UK, using UK soldiers, directly or tacitly approved by our leaders, then I’d be equally disapproving but spend more time condemning them because then they’d be our fucking fault.
(note: this also applies to pretty much every fucking ‘why do you condemn X and not Y’ thing: it’s because either it’s us, or the Yanks who’re basically us; or the Israelis who’re basically the Yanks. Of course we’re going to condemn them more than the latest doings of some random maniacs wherever – even before we get onto the question of who armed whom in the first place. And yes, I know we armed the Georgians…)
