Corden and everything that's wrong with "footy"
Happy Face replied to Meenzer's topic in General Chat
It's a fine line many producers can't distinguish. Baddiel and Skinner and Danny Baker and Danny Kelly know an absolute shitload about the game and they use their knoweldge and shape their comedy around it. Corden and Richard Bacon know fuck all and are brought in to do inane shows for people who only like football once every 4 years....they frame their references for people with that level of knowledge. -
I thought so the day you joined with that username. Aye...well recommended! But I am struggling to get my work done now cos I keep reading stuff on here! I was advancing through the ranks in my job quite well until I found this place.

Reminds me how Harry Conick Jr pulled up that talent show in Australia for the "hilarious" Jackson Jive black face tribute. -
Chawaka-wow! Ugly men and women on television. No way would Juliet Bravo be produced now with her. No way would Duncan Wood or Paul Frost get jobs on telly, let alone Mike Neville. Have you seen that fat BBC news reporter with a missing eye and a limp? Freaks me out. Gary O'Donoghue Talk about keeping an eye on the sky.

Confessions of a window cleaner on VHS at "auntie" Dot's house when she was out with my mam and we'd been fishing with her older son.

Do you mean the insurance man? It's just the Prudential man used to come round to my other Grans. My mam was always getting chased by the "Provie". Remember being made to hide and be quiet when they knocked on the door.

The American Drugstore on King Street. Burgers and coke brought to your table in a dodgem before McDonalds appeared and everyone defected. It was where Geordie Jeans had been iirc.

Cartoons on the front of your jeans. I had The Flintstones.

I like Kevin Smith. Not as much as Scott Mosier and Walt Flannegan, but he's a nice fella. -
Worse than Martin Samuel.

I think you're the third most profilic poster now, catching up with Gemmill. Congratulations. You need your own smilie. Might I suggest ? Would probably be more appropriate for HF. Let me be clear, I have not got, and have never had, a penchant for the muslim ladies.

In Sports Direct whoever sells most bags for life in each store this month is getting a £50 bonus. Bloody favouritism!

You've just made me realise I'm over 20000. Where do I collect my gold car?

I'm begining to worry about some of my taste in films recently because I enjoyed this but quite a few people who's opinion I respect think it's gash. It was ok, nothing memorable but if it was a choice between it and the latest Will Farrell piece of mindless shite, Kevin Smith wins every time. The other thing people often forget was they saw Clerks 15 years ago and could associate with it (or at least hope to be the stiff in the bathroom), you look at Zack in his mid 30s and think how the fuck could anyone be so clueless and who in the right mind would want to fuck granny pants? Like Tarrentino, Smith is merely making the same movie over and over. I don't think "people" forget that....I think Kevin Smith does. You can't blame the viewer for Kevin Smith's fixation on useless nerd's getting the girl of their dreams or the stagnation that come's with it. -

Ron Paul is a favourite within the tea party. I've always liked the bloke a lot too. There's 2 types of tea partier, those that like Sarah Palin's idiotic brand of opportunistic, constitution shredding, patriotism first, common sense last horseshit and those with a bit more about them who prefer Ron Paul's consistently idealogical and reasoned belief in small government and the inherent good of the constitution to protect the freedoms of all. To his his credit, Paul has risked alienating a lot of the people that would have otherwise supported a presidential bid from him by releasing this statement.... In my opinion it has come from the neo-conservatives who demand continual war in the Middle East and Central Asia and are compelled to constantly justify it. They never miss a chance to use hatred toward Muslims to rally support for the ill conceived preventative wars. . . Defending the controversial use of property should be no more difficult than defending the 1st Amendment principle of defending controversial speech. But many conservatives and liberals do not want to diminish the hatred for Islam -- the driving emotion that keeps us in the wars in the Middle East and Central Asia. . . . The outcry over the building of the mosque, near ground zero, implies that Islam alone was responsible for the 9/11 attacks. According to those who are condemning the building of the mosque, the nineteen suicide terrorists on 9/11 spoke for all Muslims. . . . . This is all about hate and Islamaphobia. It is indeed "about hate and Islamaphobia," and that is the driving, enabling force behind so many of America's most controversial and destructive policies. He's a republican I could be happy to see in the White House. Hopefully he's won more support than he's lost with this statement.....despite what the mosque opinion polls say.

There was an excellent piece about all this on Jon Stewart's Daily show last week. He reminded viewers about the furore following Collumbine when the NRA refused to cancel their meeting which followed just down the road. The hyprocrisy of some liberals in attacking the NRA while deffending this muslim church is one that he was right to highlight. I would have been someone who thought the NRA should have been sensitive to the situation and given it a miss....which doesn't tally with my feelings on the mosque matter. The fact is Charlton Heston was right. Emotive national disasters should not be used to stop a group exercising their constitutional rights. The NRA meeting went ahead. So should this.

i have strong feelings about people who blow planes into buildings, yeah. i think the reaction of the people in new york is easier to understand than the decision by the muslim community in manhattan to commission a mosque to be built so close to ground zero. you'd think they'd have a bit of common sense. why not build one a little further uptown instead? At least Leazes has the intellectual honesty to say what he believes and defend it, this half arsed they should build it further away argument is even more offensive to me i don't agree with leazes. he's tarnishing all muslims with the same brush. i'm not. there are plenty of moderate average joe muslims out there. i don't get why they couldn't see that this move would open a can of worms. I'm not. I realise not all muslims are terrorists, but I bet you there are more with those sympathies than people realise, because they don't behave or speak about their sympathies. This sort of discrimination only worsens that btw. Gives ammo to the arseholes trying to radicalise people. Is that something to encourage.
