The new series of Doctor Who returns on 19th September and then there’s Sherlock at Christmas…. ah, I miss Moffat…
Clicky! A purple spider, thank you. Purple is my PPE… I must say, Steven Moffat is entirely right when he says:
“You know in some ways, I think Mark [Gatiss] has got a point when he says that however good you imagine [the crossover], it would be almost better in your imagination than it would be if the two grand old egotists actually met,” he added.
I have a theory that people obey the WHO because they’ve grown up watching Doctor Who save humanity on a Saturday evening tea-time since it was…
… in black and white, Click. I caught the Who bug with No.3 and the spiders… you know, when he regenerated into…
Perhaps he though Santa was Satan, Clicky, some people do 😉 Now let me get on…
My Y’ello friend Mhehed Zherting sent me an e-cig linkthis morning…
‘What’s interesting is that The Lancet revealed this “information” in an anonymous editorial rather than a proper article. Of course it’s impossible to be sure who wrote this, because it’s anonymous, but it is an editorial. That means it was probably written by the editor, and The Lancet’s editor is one Richard Horton.’
As far as Simon Chapman goes, yeah he really is a nob…
Now if only Vaperscould be convinced to stop acting like ex-smokers (i.e. sanctimonious twats) and realise for one minute that using Tobacco Control ‘harm reduction facts’ against smokers will not help them in the long run…
That’s right, Click, remember… Sat 19th September 2015 on BBC1 😉
*I know, Clicky, that’s a huge sign… /lights up …*
This, Dear Reader, is a story of LoL Assistant Kit Bisto…
*I know, five fingers… /drags… who’d have funk it …*
…And the deal he and I struck one day in the kitchen. I’ve mentioned the story before…
…but two things happened yesterday. First I read a news story about a mother and teenage son ‘contract‘…
Chase,
You may see Pitch Perfect 2 under these conditions: By Wednesday you will deliver to me a two-page essay which will be your response to the movie. Your response will answer the following questions:
1. What is this movie’s message about sex?
2. What is this movie’s message about women’s bodies? (In particular about being overweight? Are any of these messages sexist?)
3. Is there any racism in this movie? What scenes?
4. Are there any messages in this movie about love, friendships, or careers that are positive?
5. Would you recommend this movie to your sisters? Why or why not?
So, you can see this movie- but only as a critic, not as a blind consumer. You in?
Love, Mama
*Five questions and 8 questions marks, does seem a tad demanding but, Clicky, don’t judge; the woman knows her son. Plus he’s a teenager … Kit Kat was just a kitten in primary school at the time of our deal …*
The Setting
A kitchen in a terraced house, somewhere in Essex.
Mum, a woman in her early 40s, is standing at the sink, washing up up dishes and staring out of a window at the garden beyond.Kit, a boy of 7 or 8 dressed in school uniform, enters the kitchen and kicks at a cupboard door.
Kit Arghhhh!
Mum Kitten! What’s wrong?
Kit (dramatic sigh) I hate smoking!
Mum dries her hands on a tea-towel and turns toKit. She reaches over, gently pulls him to her and strokes his hair.
Mum But you don’t smoke, Kit. You’re not old enough.
Mum Kit. I choose to smoke because I like it. (pulls away to look at his face) Besides, I’ve read a lot about smoking and I don’t believe it kills.
Kit But, school said…
Mum Kitty. School has to teach you that. I’m sure your teachers haven’t looked into it as much as I have. Some people that really don’t like smoking got the government to tell your school to tell you smoking kills. They wish it could go away, too. (rubs chin) It’s like those people that don’t like video games…
Kit Video games?
Mum Yes. Some people would like to see video games banned because they might turn you into a bad person who hurts or kills people. If they banned video games I would have to stop you playing…
Kit What?!
Mum Honestly Kit, I’ve looked into video games as well as smoking. I don’t think you’ll turn into a bad person because I let you play them. You’re not a bad person are you?
Kit No.
Mum No, of course you’re not. Look, I’ll tell you what (pauses) Let’s make a deal… I won’t let them bully me about your playing video games and you don’t let them bully you about my smoking. Deal?
Kit Okay, deal.
*Oh, the second thing that happened yesterday … Ha ha, um … Kit handed me some ‘Sterlings’ …*
*… in fact he insisted on staying and watching the second one with me …*
*…/holds sides… Honestly, Clicky, I’ve still got a stitch from last night’s laughing … Fuck it. I’m gonna click it again. I swear that boy is a genius sometimes … Go on, give our readers a song …*
“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert”. - J Robert Oppenheimer.
