teehee. bumming fags.

EVERYONE is David Chapman tonight...!

Laughing out loud

Roscoff was right, it's like a virus.
We need to quarantine the Chapman!

Cool

Did anyone see the Ten O'Clock News on Tuesday night, by the way? First item up was the Shannon/Karen Matthews story. Starts off with a live two-way between Huw Edwards and the poor reporting gimp who can't remember the word 'mother'.

He refers to Shannon Matthews' daughter, then realises he's cocked up and tries again, but says 'daughter' again and then again. He almost belms and apologises for his gimpness, and then goes to VT.

This bit's OK, until we see pictures of a male interviewee, with a caption clearly intended for a woman (Tracy, probably, or Demi-Leigh).

Cuts back to poor reporting gimp, and his mouth is moving, but no sound is coming out. He's switched off his mike.

Cuts back to Huw Edwards. He looks astonished. Ashen-faced, even. Then he apologises for the item, and does that face Tim does in The Office whenever Gareth says something stupid.

By far the funniest thing I've seen all year.

I do love it when radio/tv pick the biggest idiots of the general public to interview. Who say things like" oh well, I didn't really know the victim, but I sometimes they went to the same Iceland as me...apparently...so Tracy says from the newsagents...it was the only the other day me and Trace were talking about the colour of her front door..." etc etc

Found it on YouTube.

Reporting gimp

Graham, I saw that. Bless him. Didn't notice the caption though. Probably still too shocked from the tongue twister I'd just heard. Laughing out loud

I am currently extremely excited by the raised patterns and textures on the new Contour Bottle (that's a Coke bottle, to any non Coke geeks amongst you).

Is it proper glass, like?

Whe you say non-coke geeks you mean just you don't you. Huh?

No, a plastic one - and seems to be a thinner plastic too. Much more bendy and flexible. (Oo er.)
