I'm intrigued?! He seems genuinely ok in his reviews. Then again I haven't seen a review for ages as there ain't been much of interest out. Please would you elaborate?

His opening spiel and he's not funny. Goes into far too much tedious detail. I just don't care for him and people talk about him like he's review Jesus

Wondering why you dislike ACG. It was burning my mind away.

Oh that was the new page. Fair enough. He's put me in touch with a few games I wouldn't have played.

Are the BBC obliged to promote his show? I don't how how these things work but if they say that's why they want to interview him then maybe. Have you watched the interview? She struck me as ignoring everything he said in his first answer and merely moved onto her next scripted question. Yeah, but he complains that parents aren't preparing their children for the big mean world and then launches an official complaint because he thinks an interviewer's been mean to him.

That's the thing, nothing! Little backstory, some years back my sister, cousin, friend and I went some LA Oktoberfest-type thing run by Gene Simmons. It was trash, we should've gone to a real Oktoberfest with the German shit and the Das Boot and everything. Anyway, we all crash at my sister's place because she lives the closest to the venue, so the next morning we decide to go for a jog at Griffith Park. I mean, we're a bit hungover but you know, we're just walking and chatting, and as we're going up the hill, she and her husband are walking in the opposite direction, towards us. My cousin and I are just talking about whatever whatever, a movie we saw that week or something. Dax is talking to her about something, I'm not really focusing on them, but out of the corner of my eye I can feel her glaring at me. I slight turn and see her giving me the meanest look. This was pre-Frozen and the Good Place, so her biggest roles were Veronica Mars and the AssCreed games. So the only thing I could come up with as I walked past them was "man, I'm glad they killed that bitch off in Assassin's Creed." Not been a fan since.

A lot of my stories start with "I was a bit hungover" and I guess that says a lot about me.

Does RDJ constantly harp on about his time in prison? Does he make it part of his shows? It's been a theme for for Cleese for a while now and he makes a big fuss of it, including apparently, in his recent stage shows. It's entirely relevant and he's still a twat. Agree, it's fair game. I saw the interview, this cancel culture is his whole MO now, he can't have it both ways.

That’s either a very small forklift or a very wide rib cage. You can adjust the forks such that they can be adjacent if necessary

She's given a lot of interviews that imply that she and her husband are swingers so you might be on to something.

Yep I said Clapton all the way back on page 15, the man inspired the whole Rock Against Racism almost singlehandedly

He's also a bland guitarist and shit songwriter. Imagine making a career lifting from black blues musicians and then being a racist.

Imagine feeling smug about that. Or about forcing someone to not sell a single clip for 9 quid and foisting thousands in legal costs on them to boot. You must feel like you could be president of the US.

Yep. The theme tune to Edge of Darkness was really, really excellent to be fair, but hardly balances 3 decades of twattery since.

+1 I love his and creams music and I’m thankful I’ve not seen anything of him outside of that. Same with morissey, both define the theory you turn into a far-right gammon cunt with age.

Except Clapton was always a racist fucker going back decades. Which you'd think would be quite difficult, liking blues music as he does. But no, coked-up racist.

I just noticed the Grauniad have screwed up another article subheader but hit it spot on. www.theguardian.com/uk/culture“icky Gervais on offence, anger and infuriating Hollywood”. ‘Icky’ is about right. Looks like a sweaty, smug git with a string of sexual offences behind him.

They're only on the periphery of my knowledge but somehow those Ladbaby tossers really infuriate me. Pumping out insipid novelty covers, then just flapping on about how it's for charity. Yeah it's for a good cause doesn't stop the music being absolute shite.
(To be fair I've not heard this year's effort, and can't recall their previous ones apart from their cover of Starship. But I find think I need to).
Their releases are managed to the nth degree so it's not like they're some DIY music producers sticking it to the man.
But the thing that really annoys is every time their smug faces crop up when I'm browsing they're always doing that gormless "open mouth in pretend surprise" face that so-called influencers are fond of, bonus annoyance marks if they are pointing at something too.

They did the last few Christmas number 1 songs, covers of songs with the lyrics changed to be about sausage rolls.
Like I said, they're on the periphery of my knowledge but I do see their faces crop up on news sites and feeds

Oh, I vaguely remember the sausage roll song. Thankfully his mug hasn't infiltrated life. One person with an annoying YouTube face who has infiltrated my life against is this annoying prick called Mr Beast on YouTube purely through my kids at school who love him. He's really perfected the annoying open mouth YouTube thumbnail.
